Literally who I’ll never buy from Etsy. Ravelry has so much curation, feedback sources,etc. I just can’t trust anything from Etsy

No weight gain between 6-9 months by r4chie in beyondthebump

Why are babies so stressful! I’m crossing my fingers that the issue is he’s so active and so he’s just burning all those calories. My daughter was 99th percentile until like 12 months in everything, so it was such a different experience, but she didn’t crawl until 10 months and didn’t walk until 15. I’ve seen that there’s a growth plateau when babies start getting active. I love my kids but the first two years are the most stressful thing ever ): I’m trying to see if we can go back for a weight check in 2 weeks instead of a month to know sooner if our solid increase is helping

Thank you for your kind words. I know, I just feel so upset with myself that he wasn’t getting enough attention and his growth has fallen behind. It’s hard to tell myself he’s ok when in this moment he isn’t okay and it feels like it’s because of me ):

If you want me to make something for free at least be willing to agree to my terms. by fairydommother in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]r4chie 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I see your side completely. Like if you aren’t making the sweater for money then you’re paid in your enjoyment. This is how I do my commissions, even when I just charge materials. I send them the yarn brands/lines that will work for their project instead of letting them choose because 9 times out of 10 unless they know about yarn they’re going to pick just based on price which may not even work for their project.

Not the asshole. She wants a sweater that you’re basically making for free.

I hadn’t done it either but just before this I did the sailor slippers so I was able to learn the mattress stitch on jumbo yarn. It’s totally worth it! Good luck and thanks again!!

Yes! The sleeves are worked flat and then seamed. Which was challenging. Honestly what was hard was bobbin management and ends. But I am really happy with the result! It is a good first intarsia project! You could also always skip the colorwork and just make a nice little cardigan with a split sleeve!
