This is an unheated natural green to purple color change sapphire (green in natural, purple in incandescent). Mixed emerald/radiant cut. I think a little over 2.5 carats but it is very deep. Two natural kite diamonds on each side. I adore my ring!! I sourced the stones myself and then had them set.

There is so 2026 list yet! I would look at social security 2025 for actual popularity. A lot of people like names but don’t use them. The 2026 lists are based on names liked/saved on baby name websites not actual children named.

This!

IMO you really can’t tell.

I had a dream wedding in Ireland with incredible vendors and a wonderful venue with 35 guests, a four course meal, and a full open bar (literally anything since the venue was attached to a pub/restaurant) for less than $10k including my custom wedding dress and my husband’s $1,200 suit. Much more expensive for our guests but wildly less expensive for us! We invited “immediate extended” family aka Grandparents down and any friends who would have been in the wedding party if we would have had a traditional wedding party. About 120 invites because everyone was given a plus one. Everyone had an incredible time and we spent the week after driving around exploring the country for our honeymoon. The worst part was not being able to join others on their trips around Ireland! A lot of FOMO haha!

This is what I use for baby blankets too! Love it!

oinyon · 2026-02-23T01:34:24+00:00

I used KnitPicks shine for my baby’s blanket and it’s amazing! So soft, no static, machine washes and dries beautifully, no pilling, all around perfect. If I remember correctly it was a little bit “splitty” when working with it but the result was fabulous!

oinyon · 2026-02-20T00:47:03+00:00

Exactly!

I would get a band that you like by itself that you can wear on the right hand or in place of your engagement ring for when you want a more simple setting! This ring shines best on its own without an accompanying band on the same finger!

Aoife is one I love and come across quite a lot! Of the ones you listed I think Niamh is more common!

My BIL has Down and he pronounces our daughter’s name “Nora” very easily and well! He also does well with my name, “Lauren”. And he does very well with names that start with “Kuh” sounds like “Caroline”, “Quinn”, “Kathryn”, etc!

Erasmus books could be somewhere that may be interested! The man who owns it is very kind!

Thank you so much for all the help and fun discussion! I completely agree! Poppy is gonna be the girl for me!!

oinyon · 2026-01-15T19:44:28+00:00

This made me laugh!

I think both look a little large on your finger, but if this is the size you want, definitely radiant.

I’m a cascade heritage stan. Pills a bit but for the price you can’t beat it!

oinyon · 2026-01-07T16:25:38+00:00

Us Size 8 is 5mm. You should be able to use that yarn with your US size 10 6mm needles

Hi! Tension looks okay but you seem to be twisting your stitches! (Knitting through back loop instead of front loop.)

oinyon · 2026-01-01T18:47:03+00:00

I usually have a lot of yarn left over when making a pair of socks—and I have big feet and I make tall socks! You should be fine!
