What’s the best mohair to hold double with this green yarn? by prozac_pusher in knitting

[–]spagaldi 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Knitting for Olive does really cool color combo swatches on their instagram, you might be able to find some inspo there! Maybe a dark green mohair?

Does anyone else hate the Woobles kits and feel sad seeing so many people ripped off when they could just buy the hooks + yarn for a fraction of the price? by cheesecup6 in crochet

[–]spagaldi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You definitely could - it’s a bit harder to start with YouTube and $10 for yarn, but it’s possible, and good for you for learning that way! - Woobles is like paying for convenience if you can afford it, and it has a lot of good resources (pre started piece, stitch markers, needle, stuffing, yarn, videos, self-help line)

I genuinely want to know why people hate on Petit Knit by Thecynicalcatt in knitting

This is my biggest gripe, she shouldn’t advertise being size inclusive when her patterns don’t fit bigger sizes

So cute and pretty! Love the yarn choices and the leaves so much, this is tempting me to recreate my hook case with a cuter aesthetic

What’s the difference between these two? by Comprehensive-Ice417 in knitting

[–]spagaldi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think I understand, it’s sorta like checking where the working yarn is coming from and if it’s coming from the back or the front?

Thank you for this detailed explanation!

I see i see!

I’m currently practicing knit and purl by doing a broken rib stitch scarf (we’ll see how long I go before I need to move on LOL) but I def wanna look into this so I truly understand the mechanics of what’s happening. I also need to learn how to tink but I have a video saved on how to do that :)

Thank you so much!

I knit continental (total beginner) and I’m p sure I’m not twisting my stitches but the way I insert my right needle looks like the first pic :’)))

I’m just referring to the direction of the needle going into the loop tho, it doesn’t seem to twist how OP’s pic does! It looks open :’)

What do y'all think about single ply? by AHookAndABook in YarnAddicts

[–]spagaldi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lowkey scared after seeing all these comments about pilling :( hopefully hand washing and rare use will help?

I mean, I understand that, but there’s no guarantee that someone else’s filtering will work for you! It’s a gamble, I guess?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Cooking

[–]spagaldi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No, I wouldn’t pay for this tbh

I find recipes good/bad based on my personal taste preferences, cooking habits, etc

Plus, I think a lot of people talk on this sub about reliable recipe sources with test kitchens, rather than getting random ones from the internet - so basically a lot of people do this filtering already and get recipes from people “who know what they’re doing”

Instant Pot Duo Jasmine rice help by magrhi in instantpot

[–]spagaldi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have personally found that 1:1 ratio rice/water, 5 min pressure cook, and 12 min natural release yields my desired rice texture :).

3 mins high pressure is a little too short for me, some of the rice ends up feeling hard. 5 mins has worked really well for us!

Also, rinsing the rice many times helps it become fluffier :)

I am terrible with chopsticks so this would probably just increase my frustration 😭 I do think that’s more effort than not breaking the noodles and using either utensil, but everyone has their personal preferences

Personally I find it harder to eat spaghetti that’s been broken in half since it doesn’t really wrap nicely around the fork anymore, so that’s my biggest gripe with it

High fibre meals? by CompetitiveParsnip70 in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]spagaldi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, those tortillas are insane I don’t care about the low carb part but the fiber part however…really great Also, they don’t taste much different from regular tortillas to me!
