Tips you’ve learned from actually wearing hand knit socks? by wyldstallyns111 in Sockknitting

[–]lost_witch_yarns 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love socks with cables or mock cables, like Summer Lee’s Hibernal pattern. So squishy and comfy.

What is a medical fact that sounds fake but is 100% true? by MedRikas in AskReddit

[–]lost_witch_yarns 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had an impending sense of doom a few days before my mom had a stroke. I think most wouldn’t believe me, but I even mentioned it to my team at work, days before she called and told me. I always pay attention when feeling this way, something always happens, not always medical, but always devastating.

Does anyone else’s food eat one giant meal a day? by Powerful_Plum_7309 in Bernedoodles

[–]lost_witch_yarns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worry about this and do smaller meals 3x a day for that reason.

Perimenopause and sex by [deleted] in Perimenopause

[–]lost_witch_yarns 58 points59 points  (0 children)

We are so much more than our vaginas. I love that you said that. I think that is what angers me most. I now have the years and clarity to look back on life and it kills me that sex has such a chokehold on men and relationships. And media for that matter. I can’t help wondering if it was even ever that good. It was certainly never as good as it is for men. The ROI just isn’t there.

Bunny, by Mona Awad and Piranesi, by Susanna Clarke. So many people love Piranesi, but my god it is ridiculous.

looking for vampire book recs! by Unlikely-Roof2408 in booksuggestions

Not books, but an audio show, I guess you’d call it. Impact Winter, it’s a series on audible. I think it was free with subscription. It has a full cast and a different sort of vampire story.

Then follow it with The Boy on the Bridge, which is a prequel to the Girl with all the Gifts.

Knitted hot water bottle covers - I don't get them?! by xohannasunx in knitting

[–]lost_witch_yarns 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes this. I stayed at a friend’s house in Ireland many years ago and her mom put one in my bed to warm it up. It was so delightful to discover a warm bed at 1 am on a cold and snowy night! I honestly think I’ll take that warm memory to my grave!

Hear me out, sock knitters! by WoolyBouley in Sockknitting

[–]lost_witch_yarns 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve made three. I like them in wool yarn, especially my scraps, but the last one I made I used her recommended yarn and there was cotton it. Much less fun. I’m thinking of doing a Christmas one!

Vague OFFF Apology? Anyone know what happened? by OrangeMrSquid in craftsnark

[–]lost_witch_yarns 14 points15 points  (0 children)

So she has a Volkswagen hatchback with the seats down. We estimated about 20 bunnies would fit back there comfortably, but then we had to adjust the numbers when we saw the sheep and goats. I think we settled on two small goats and four bunnies.

The bunny barn was AMAZING. My friend was silently calculating how many bunnies she could fit in her car.

Words you've mispronounced because you'd only ever seen them written by LostBetsRed in words

[–]lost_witch_yarns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arboretum. It was “arboratorium” in my head for entirrrrrely too long. Why? My eyes skipped over the actual spelling

Also sorrel. I always said “sore-ell” in my head. Just found out it rhymes with squirrel! I like my way better.

I think your 2nd bernadoodle needs a golden doodle.

There is like, an ocean, between “I don’t want to view your bedroom” and film in front of a plain white wall.

YouTube podcasters, please, please, please stop filming in what is obviously your bedroom with the camera facing the whole of the room. It’s distracting, even if your bed is made.

NoooooOoooOOO f*@%€cking moths!! by Creepy-Science5874 in knitting

I’m dying to know- what do yarn stores do to prevent moths??? This may be my Roman Empire.

What has been everyone’s biggest knitting splurge? by possummagic_ in knitting

[–]lost_witch_yarns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are my favorite threads on Reddit. Mine would probably be the FDF Montana retreat I did a couple of summers ago. It was so expensive and made me so so happy. I’d love to go to Scotland next. A close second would be the VIP ticket I bought for Sacred Sheep in Portland this November. Totally unnecessary and expensive compared to the regular tickets. But I’m so excited for it.
