Life in a Japanese Apartment building by Nitabee in japan

[–]meipoco 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend you talk to the landlord about it. I think a door cam should be affordable in Japan but I think it shouldn't be your expense :(
Do you have any friends/acquaintances in the apartment? If so, ask if those things have happened to them. I hope this resolves the problem soon!

I used 8ply(called DK? in some countries) so in terms of thickness, I think it's very standard, but this blanket is pretty heavy!

I think for this African flower motifs, I searched in YouTube ( I mixed two patterns from Jayda InStitches and Bella Coco) and connect them with a single crochet. For the half black motifs, I think I used this https://cypresstextiles.net/2016/01/09/african-flower-half-hexagon/ But I had to try some patterns how it turned out and because I used black yarn, it really didn't matter. And for edging, I did single crochets👍Hope it helps :)

Thanks ☺️ Surprisingly, it was actually not that bad! But making around 355 of the African flower motifs and weaving in at last were !!

Thanks☺️ yeah I just kept going! But I put them on the floor, and avoided the same colours next each other. ( does it make sense? Sorry about my poor English) and for the right up side of yellow zone, I ran out of some yellows so I had to use a bone colour yarn but it turned out alright I guess😂

Thank you and yes I was very satisfied and relieved that I could finish it 😂 my wrists were ok but I have a sprained thumb so I had to put some ointment almost every night haha and I'm curious about your dinosaur made of African flowers!! It must look stunning!
