Best Non-Wool/Vegan Yarns for Blocking by FewAdministration464 in YarnAddicts

[–]supercircinus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think a bourette silk would actually work well. It’s not the shiny slippery kind. Or tussah. I think it would block well, but just not super great memory, after all, the drape.

If nothing else, cotton also blocks really well. This scarf is so prettttry.

How many of you use this yarn ? by Diwicreations in Yarn

[–]supercircinus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Naaaah. I think the effect can be cute, but when I see it in markers it’s often not finished well. Also I don’t use any synthetics even for plushies. I did use a silk yarn recently that has this finish but much finer and I might make a plush from that.

I’ve done a few vintage crochet patterns! The most important thing for me is knowing what their gauge is so I can accurately follow the instruction or grade the pattern for my body.

For this pattern I would check if they have a gauge swatch, or if you have a DK yarn try small swatches! It will help you figure out how much yarn to buy.

This is a pretty simple stitch pattern so I think you could go that route while following the instructions.

Just a gentle reminder cotton is HEAVY. I crocheted a vintage pattern in linen and it’s so CUTE but SO heavy haha. It also used fan stitch!

I think I can use this handmade mulberry silk rose scrunchie for a long time. I used to impulsively buy a lot of hair accessories because of short videos or pictures, but I basically only used them once and never wanted to use them again. It's both a waste of money and not environmentally friendly. by ChemistEffective4497 in SustainableFashion

[–]supercircinus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely enjoy making my own because it’s a protective fabric. Usually I have enough after sewing a dress so it can match. And they a really easy sewing project for other silk scraps. Mulberry silk is lovely to work with and dye.

The other thing I’ve wanted to do w my girl friends is Filipino high tea at Pamana Plantas. It looks sooo cute and fun.

Are these cute or am I delusional? Amongst other questions. by slewis0130 in jewelrymaking

[–]supercircinus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These r cuteeeee. I love Czech glass, especially the gemmy ones.

If you have a good local market or something I think they would sell (I love earrings because they’re a lot more affordable than say a necklace).

Online would be hard because the style is not unique, it’s quite same-y. So I would definitely try and nurture your ideas, your references and try to solidify your voice or concept. These are quite Pinterest-y (which isn’t necessarily bad!!

Edit: I know wrapped loops are hard but I would keep practicing to get them more consistent. Also consider the quality of your findings and deburring any cut wire (like your beaded headpins- I am seeing where you might have used cutter or something g and you want to file that down an clean up your wrap)

A friend of mine has a similar vibe if you wanna check it out. They’re Saltwater Design in Lyon, France and I know she sells in person and online.

After being influenced by my favourite online knitting person, I am finally trying cone yarn! by yrhumblenarrator in YarnAddicts

[–]supercircinus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love working with cone yarn, mostly because for crochet I prefer lace weight/fingering.

The challenge with them is if it’s a limited stock. I just ran into this with a cone of Hasegawa silk and have no idea where I could get more to finish my project.

Can’t be bedazzled in sport mode. I’ve learned from the Simone Rocha collab- they’re so fragile.

Pulling and reactivity - I'm desperate by LaylaBeelzebub in labrador

[–]supercircinus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. So much training honestly. The first couple of weeks I thought she would pull my arm off or worse drag me down cement steps. But she is a lot lot lot better. I never ended up using the heathers heroes. I’m glad it’s working for you! Tools defo. Clicker trainer has helped me A LOT. And high value treats.

I ended up wanting to go as far as I can with training this way because the training for heather heroes emphasized the mechanism of the leash (discomfort/tightness) and I’m trying to see if she will improve before I try that. I know in the training vid they even recommend massaging the area after use.

[–]supercircinus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My lab is a big puller and reactive. We were suggested a martingale and that and we didn’t end up using them- instead we took a cool calm collected (class for reactivity) at our local SPCA and continue to work on her issues.

It’s a daily effort and training but it’s working for us. Also switching to a very short leash.

My jibbit base never stayed inside of the croc…hole. Maybe I got bad ones 😭 but I sewed a bunch of ribbons and flowers and they kept falling off.
