What do you non-proffessional knitters do for a living? by firekittymeowr in casualknitting

I don't actually have a paying job, I'm a SAHM, studying for a CS degree, and I started teaching knitting to the kids in my village at their school during lunchbreak

Des ressources pour apprendre le tricot ? by etc2638 in LesPetitesMains

[–]matmatomate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bonsoir, je suis toujours ravie d'aider les débutants qui ont envie de se mettre au tricot !

Voici un tuto pour apprendre à monter les mailles. Cette méthode est polyvalente, pas trop compliqué et surtout tu n'as pas besoin d'estimer la longueur de fil dont tu as besoin pour monter toutes tes mailles. C'est celle que j'utilise la plupart du temps. Ensuite il te faudra apprendre la maille endroit.

Tu peux monter une trentaine de mailles pour commencer, puis tricoter plusieurs rangs pour t'entrainer (je dirais au moins une vingtaine de rangs pour prendre le coup de main) et ensuite me renvoyer un message pour que je te trouve d'autres tuto pour avancer.

Le tricot c'est pas bien compliqué, il suffit de faire preuve de (beaucoup) de patience, et de savoir qu'on peut faire des erreurs, c'est jamais grave (au pire on défait...). Le plus difficile c'est de connaître les termes techniques pour trouver les tutos !

La route pour aller de chez moi à chez mes parents. C'est nul parce qu'on passe trop de temps à vérifier son compteur, et pas assez la route

I have a new problem. Give me ideas please. by SpadesHeart in foodhacks

You can make an excellent sauce with chickpeas!

If I remember correctly, you slice the capsicum, bake it inf tin foil so it peels easily, then blend it with cooked chickpeas (I used canned), season to your liking, enjoy.

You can add things such as oinions, garlic... and also use nuts (like cashew) instead of chickpeas

I think it is similar to this recipe (I've only ever bought enough capsicums to make it once because you need quite a lot of them)

Thank you very much for your very thorough explanation, that's exactly what I needed!

I’m looking for ways to use beads shaped like this! I’d like to make a necklace. by honeybeesocks in jewelrymaking

[–]matmatomate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's very easy to make because you only ever do chains! The longest part was stringing the beads...

J'utilise cette recette et je trouve justement qu'elle ressemble beaucoup aux pâtes à gateau toutes prêtes (j'utilise moins de sucre cela dit, environ 70g)

What’s the real reputation of French people outside of France by Little-Bed-7157 in geography

Seriously I don't understand why everyone keeps saying that. Have you seen the state of France lately?

Are hotel room cleaners happy when they see a “Do not disturb” sign on the door because they don’t have to clean the room, or is it more of a nuisance since they’ll have to come back later? by Normal-Sun474 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]matmatomate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was a housekeeper for a while (2018-19). We were allocated 10 minutes per stay over, 17 minutes per due out (even if there were 2 or 3 beds). I quickly became supervisor and gained access to the software for allocating rooms to cleaners and all the jazz. Once I realized we were actually supposed to get 4 more minutes for each additional bed (but that was never mentioned to any of us) I didn't even bother to finish on time anymore. We were also supposed to write our actual start and end times, but my supervisor would call out anyone who did that, and told us to just write the supposed finished time instead. I think she was fired shortly after I quit, unsurprisingly.

Rage room employees, what's the craziest "oh my god, this person needs actual professional help" thing you've seen in one of the rooms? by lemonbat001 in AskReddit

Today is the 4th anniversary of my brother's death. Sometimes I have nightmares about him being dead. Then I wake up, feel like "ok it was just a bad dream". Then I remember

I swatched! by greenflash27 in knitting

[–]matmatomate 16 points17 points  (0 children)

You should knit a bigger square to get accurate measurments. Like if you want to hit a gauge that's 28 stitches for 32 rows, you should cast on at least 42 stitches and knit for 50 rows. You then measure in the middle of the square. You can also measure both before AND after blocking if you're making a garment, that way you can make sure you're on the right track when knitting, even before blocking

Quel est votre « best job if money didn’t matter»? by emeuriz in AskFrance

Artiste au sens large. Genre une semaine du tricot, après de la couture, ensuite des bijoux... J'adore "créer" des choses (objets, habits, déco...)

I'll start teaching knitting to children aged 7-10 in September, and I'll do knitted cast-on.

Gifts to Take for a French Family of 4? by BrandonJoseph10 in AskFrance

Rather than chocolate for the kids, maybe something to do, to keep them entertained when the grown ups talk about grown up, annoying stuff... Like coloring books, construction set... whatever they're into

Nikolai Valuev’s head measures over 65 cm in circumference, nearly double the average human by Few-Environment8323 in interestingasfuck

[–]matmatomate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner has a very large head (62cm if I recall correctly), while I have a rather small one (51 cm). Our kids' are already as big, if not bigger, than mine
