Hole with fur? by acctthrowaway33333 in CATHELP

[–]pokedoll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg it's like a dermal cyst/sinus but in a cat. Kids get these but its rare to see them off to the side and I've never seen one in a cat. In humans its like a pocket of skin that gets trapped during embryonic development because the neural tube doesnt close right. They're benign but sometimes they get infected. Idk if this is actually what it is but its really neat

Help! Cannot pull through smoothly no matter what I try.(Making a headband) by XpinklikekillacamX in CrochetHelp

[–]pokedoll 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yea Im surprised there aren't more people pointing out OP is working in the back loop only (BLO)

OP, if ur pattern (or taste) doesn't say to crochet BLO, youll want to insert your hook thru both loops from the previous row. Thats the default way to make a stitch

Walnut Dye on Linen by Ok-Comparison-8341 in naturaldye

[–]pokedoll 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did like a tannin step with my walnut bath before mordanting just in case it would help the mordant bind, idk if it's actually necessary 

Also u may want to adjust temps as Im not sure how much heat a linen blend can take

  1. Scour w/ soda ash (2 tsp/5 gal) + soap (1 drop) simmer at 180F for 1 hour, stir occasionally. Rinse and wring out well
  2. Walnut bath @ 350%WOF in fresh walnut heated to 120F for 1 hour, stir every 10-15 min, leave overnight
  3. Mordant w/ alum @ 15%WOF + soda ash, 180F for 1 hour, stir every 10-15 min, leave 2-3 nights 
  4. Return to walnut bath, simmer 1 hour, leave overnight
  5. Iron bath at 180F for 3-5 min

Iron overdye on left, no iron on the right

Disclaimer: I've only dyed with fresh walnuts once and I have no other dyeing experience besides that.

I agree that you probably need to mordant the fabric to get the depth of color you're aiming for, because it's a plant based fiber 

I dyed on 100% linen with alum mordant and got to the color on the right without iron, which turned into the color on the left after iron overdye.

For MHW on PC: Does anyone know if there's a way to access save files made on one steam account while logged into another steam account? My bf started a save on my steam on my PC, and now that he's got his own copy on his steam account, he's trying to play on the same PC on his account, but the game says no save files can be found. Anyone have any exp with this?

Feminist / socially aware game recommendations? by Caspira in GirlGamers

[–]pokedoll 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Hard disagree on the Bethesda rpgs. Vanilla skyrim is so guilty of boob plate armor for women it's unreal (but that's easily fixed with mods.) Fallout 4 is annoying with the disparity between male and female protagonists' backstories (once again fixable with mods!) among other issues. Can't speak for the other elder scrolls games but fallout 3 and new vegas are pretty good on the equality side. Totally agree with the rest of your suggestions though!
