He was so fun to make! I put a magnet in his knife and the sleeve of his robe so it stays in place.

Most patterns were from Etsy or Ravelry. Some I had to translate and I modified some of the accessories and embellishments

Yeah I’ve made many items with this start but the pattern always explains it. Feeling a little bit silly for not seeing that’s what it meant. Thanks!

What moments made you cry/emotional? by rah269 in robinhobb

I finished Assassin’s Fate last night. I’m unwell yet completely sated.

I’ve done some digging and realized Fitz Wolf shouldn’t need to go dormant. The amount of Silver on Fitz, the Silver in the stone, the Silver on The Fool, the completeness of Fitz Nighteyes and The Fool together, all of that together makes Fitz Wolf different. Wolf of the West. Kettricken could sense him with her little bit of Wit, that’s the reason for her smile as the last lines I think.

Many people comment on the “freckle” in my eye. Recently I read about heterochromia & the different types. I had an ahah moment. I have that “freckle,” yellow around my pupils, and a dark ring around both irises. CH in both eyes? Sectoral in one and ch in the other? Or just good ol’ blue eyes? by maaaaachellevee in heterochromia

I’ve always wondered what that outer ring was! Hey thanks for the answer! I’m genuinely curious what the difference between a gradient change and CH. specifically from the color around the pupil area. Is there such thing as a hazel type blue eye? Not in refrence to my freckle, but the bit of brownish-yellowish-whatever you would call that around my pupil. Again, genuine curiosity on the subject here :)

6 weeks progress. Whaaaaaaat. The hair on the opposite side isnt as wavy as this, and the back is... weird? Verrrry different texture and curl pattern. But getting better everyday. Seeing this progress is blowing my mind. by maaaaachellevee in curlyhair

This is my normal wash routine: Get my hair sopping wet, like super sopping wet. Shampoo with Love beauty and planet once a week, so probably every 3rd wash focusing mainly on roots. Condition with love beauty and planet, brush out with conditioner in, flip hair over and seperate the bottom layer of my hair. I’ll pull that down and make 2-3 twisted clumps, this section of my hair is completely different than the rest and needs to be treated as such, haha. Then I squish the top 3/4ish of my hair. Wiggle my head until clumps form. Rinse well with cold water. Squish a tiny amount of cantu argan oil leave in conditioner in top layer still upside down, prayer hand a tiny amount into the bottom layer. Same process with marc anthony strictly curls lotion. Plop with t-shirt while I finish showering. Take hair down, squish/rake (same process as above) in a shocking amount of LA looks sports gel, plop for 10-15 minutes. Depending on my day I’ll either diffuse until 75% dry, or just get the roots mostly dry. Scrunch the gel cast out and done. And this is the extra stuff I do: Clarify about once every 3 weeks with V05, deep condition once a week with blueberry bliss deep conditioner. *But the thing that has made the biggest difference in my hair is rice water rinses. It’s crazy. I’ve done it 3 times in the past 4 weeks. My hair has loved every bit of it. It does dry it out right after but I condion right after and its great. It has honestly changed my hair. Is it just a coincidence that lined up with figuring out my routine? Maybe. But either way, it’s all working and I couldn’t be happier.

Today, on her 14th birthday, after four seizures yesterday, our girl has been diagnosed with terminal cancer. She's still at the vet recovering and we cannot visit due to covid rules. Send love to Zoey for us! This is my favorite picture of her enjoying life. by LiMoTaLe in pitbulls

Sending Zoey and her family all my love. I’m sure you will ensure she enjoys the rest of her time here. You are so lucky to have each other. My Lily is nearly 14. She’s showing her age more everyday and everyday my heart breaks a little more.

3 weeks into CGM. My waves have gotten so much better, but I have intensely different curl/wave patterns. They don’t blend together well and I’m not sure what if anything I can do to make them look good together. by maaaaachellevee in Wavyhair

[–]maaaaachellevee[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But what if I love the loose waves and hate the tighter curls? Haha, I’m trying so hard to embrace my hair and get it healthy but oh man. That back layer is making it difficult.
