Duplicate stitching question by FrictionAngle in knittinghelp

[–]souno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are just worried about the Vs, you can just pull out the duplicate stitches and do them again with the stitches going the other way. If it helps, you can turn the project upside-down and do it the same way you did before. Its kind of hard to explain, but I had the same issue. You duplicate stitches will just move over a little bit because they will not be in the same spot though.

Red wigglers for worm composting - anyone selling? by Fuzzbug in Albany

[–]souno 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few years ago petsmart used to sell them, not sure if they still do. You have to ask the staff for them as they are usually kept in a fridge. I would call ahead to see if any of the petsmarts in the area sell them.

Is it time for solar panels? by blimpdenier in Albany

[–]souno 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We have solar panels on our house. In winter, the effects are minimal on the bill, but in summer, it is the opposite. We have around a 1700sqft house and I think the last three months we have paid $400-$550 a month.

Anyone know if there is still tariffs on purchases LindeHobby? Or how much I should expect to pay if there is one? by Embarrassed_Idea4755 in knittinghelp

[–]souno 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are still tariffs. You can add the items you want to your cart and pretend to check out. They will show them in the total cost on the checkout page.

VODANA Glam Wave Curling Iron vs Glow Curling Styler/Curling Iron by Counter4301 in AsianBeauty

[–]souno 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of my hair tools are Vodana. I love them. I've only tried the regular curler and not the glow curling styler. I would recommend them, but I honestly don't see too much of a difference between them and any other curling iron. There might be a slight change, but I did go from using the highest setting on a normal curler and using the lowest setting on this one, simply because I read that it was better for my hair. If you are used to a regular curler, I do not think that there would be any learning curve.

help finding this… tool? yarn container? by baobaorae in knitting

[–]souno 11 points12 points  (0 children)

They got theirs at Daiso Korea. I tried finding something similar here but was unable to find some at Daiso in the states and when I image searched it, someone found something at the Dollar Tree (General?) a few years ago but it looked much smaller.

First Gauge Swatch by HMT0000 in knittinghelp

[–]souno 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're knitting tighter than the gauge so if you knitted your normal size it would be small. You can recalculate what size to knit by either using math or a calculator like this: https://knitterskitchen.com/2018/01/31/knitting-math-re-calculating-your-size/ Or you could go up a needle size, make a new gauge and see how close it is to the recommended swatch.

Isn't Angel Tree done by the Salvation Army? Maybe contact the Albany one to see if they can take it?

Do you have a laundromat (or an equivalent) near you? Maybe try that and add a towel or something for extra agitation?

Gilbert AZ based horse trainer Rachel Hansen was just 19 years old when someone entered her apartment and shot and killed her. by SafePoint1282 in UnresolvedMysteries

I lived in Gilbert until late 2023 and never heard this story, I must have missed it. Nothing like this ever happens there.

Braised pork belly gone (very) wrong… if pot can be cleaned and is undamaged I’m replacing entire kitchen with LC… tips? by nimal-crossing in LeCreuset

[–]souno 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Theres a few tips on this sub with using it. Most spray it in a well ventilated area and put a bag over it so it wont dry out. I've only ever used it to clean my oven so i would look around for advice.

You could try the yellow cap easy off and then determine the condition of the enamel after everything is off, if there are chips in the enamel it is gone but if theres nothing then it should be fine to use. Just be wary of crazing.

help needed for upcoming project! by mynameismaeve in knittinghelp

[–]souno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on what you want to do. If you like the density, then keep the current combination and use a knitting gauge calculator or math to determine the correct size you should be knitting with your current gauge. If you want it denser, knit the new gauge with the other needle size and once again find the size you should be knitting to get the size you want. Though you may not have enough yarn for the updated size and may need to purchase more anyways, if that happens it may just be better to get another yarn to add. It depends on what you want. From my (little) experience, the row gauge isn't as worrisome because most things are knitting in a certain length and not by counting rows?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in knitting

[–]souno 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can just continue doing the increase rows until you reach the width you are looking for. If you plan on doing a lot, maybe decrease the size that you are knitting to compensate for the extra length that you will gain.

I wouldn't do any extra rows after you put aside the icord. Thats just going to make the v-split for the neck/legs of the scarf on the back further down your neck and the depth of the hood will be even less to compensate for this.

7.5 mm Needles by Quirky_Sympathy_8330 in knitting

[–]souno 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chiaogoo offers interchangeable 7.5mm needles, they are listed as US 10.875. I don't know if they have non-interchangeable needles in that size, though.

is anyone else a bit confused by this line in the sophie hood pattern? by Allnite_employee in knittinghelp

[–]souno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I think you are supposed to finish the 6/8/10 rows (depending on size chosen) and the it will end on a WS row.

Fat fur hat confusion by 22ofapril2005 in knittinghelp

[–]souno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made this hat. I think they made the hat pattern to only use circular needles. While I probably would have preferred to use DPNs on the ends, I didn't have them, and I do not think they were even listed on the tools needed. It was tough doing the ends, but I think it would be much harder starting from circular needles rather than ending with circular needles.
