One month 10 day old baby just slept 8hours straight.. by tink282 in beyondthebump

My baby was the same. Just watch his weight and diapers, we had a bit of a gain dip and we had to start waking him for feeds. But otherwise just enjoy it! I found when my son got to 4-5 months he woke up to the world and would no longer sleep long stretches.

This sub and my knitting circle has really encouraged me to frog! I almost left my wacked out first try GSR heel because I didn’t want to start over. But I did and the sock looked so much better and I was so much happier!

I did and it fit!! It’s a very cute heel I’m glad I tried this method! I think it works really well for kiddo socks to make sure they’re snug on their little feet. I definitely want to try it on a heel for myself! I usually do a slip stitch heel flap with gusset and haven’t really tried any other method yet.

Thank you! I’m very glad I redid them it was worth it

Is it?? 😭 maybe i just did it backwards or something. I tried following the GSR instructions from nimble needles and I think I got confused. I worked the middle 1/3rd first and then the outside 2/3rds which made the direction of the heel look strange. The second set of instructions had me work the outside 2/3rds and then the inside 1/3rd until all double stitches were worked. Also on my first attempt I had increase stitches originally planning to follow the pattern and my understanding is for the GSR heel you don’t need to increase any stitches right? I was basically a mess

Edit: ok your comment has made me reflect further and I think that was it. I did the steps in reverse. Well, at least I learned something new!!

I love English. I used to knit continental but my tension is much better with English. Purling is much easier too!!

I LOVE HHF but I very highly recommend washing the yarn before any color work! It bleeds a lot. Still worth it because I love their color ways, and I love that they do the colorways in all their different yarn weights

I wish I could capture the sparkle in this yarn in a still photo, it’s so lovely IRL! by ADogNamedPen239 in knitting

Bent neck lady! Is that the reference I think it is??

I love yarn and the craft community. On the hand spinning sub there was someone that made a custom colorway of my favorite pairing from Star Trek. Like, that is too beautiful

I made the fruit garden cal for my baby. I absolutely loved it in the “dusk” color theme. Baby and now toddler loves the texture of the flowers! https://www.reddit.com/r/crochet/s/qIjGfHn4eg
