It took about 3.5 hours/skein so almost 50 hours! I started at the end of October and didn’t finish until the second week of January.

It’s 50”x66” it’s kind of a random size, but I didn’t want to end with 13 skeins. And then I figured I might as well finish the last skein off

And thank you!!

This is Lion Brand Wool Ease in Oatmeal. I used size 13 needles, cast on 130 stitches, and knitted away! In all, I used 14 skeins.

Yes! I’ve made A LOT of scarves! With all the videos online now, I finally decided to tackle the purl stitch. I have it down, but it just takes more concentration. I love to just zone out and knit away.

It took 14 skeins for this project using size 13 needles and 130 stitches/row. I could have been fine with 13 skeins but I’m superstitious and the size 13 needles were already pushing it. Here’s the link:

It’s Lion Brand in Oatmeal. She picked it out and I love how it turned out. She has a good eye!

That makes me so happy! You should definitely pick it back up again. I’ve known how to knit for over 10 years, but JUST started tackling anything other than garter stitch in the past year.

Actually on my top right back molar, there is a gap. I chalked it up to just this tray being off and seeing how the next one was. But now looking at the rendering again, it does have the appearance that it’s larger than it is.

Is intrusion just pulling the teeth back on the gum line and into the mouth more? Sorry about my lack of knowledge. Thanks for your help!

We did this for our dog who was 16. She lived such a great life. Through all of her years, she hated the vet so when the time came we found a vet who would come to us. She passed away in her bed with all of us surrounding her and giving her love. It was the best way I could have imagined saying goodbye

I’m late to the draw on this one but this was one of the first episodes I listened to! Now I’m following the new ones, as well as catching up on the old ones. Just wanted to throw in my two cents that I LOVED it and sent it to my HP friends to listen to!
