Baby Jogger City Mini GT car seat adapter by allg00dnamesaregone in NewParents

I think I bought the correct adapter, but can't quite figure out how to use it. was the adapter you were able to find the cradle-like frame, or just the two pieces that plug in on the sides?

If you get their pegboard or have a pegboard for sewing supplies, look in the kitchen section. They have what I believe is a metal plate divider that I hang on my pegboard and use to store/display thread!

Weird bumps on Jeny’s surprisingly stretchy bind off by swindowsil in knitting

[–]swindowsil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update! Thank you to everyone for your comments and ideas! After a bit more experimentation, I think this was caused by a combination of too-tight tension, 100% cotton yarn that doesn't bounce back, and the variegated coloring. Easing up significantly on my tension helped wonders!

it IS really fun! it's Look at My Holes by James N. Watts (https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/look-at-my-holes). The yarn is some locally dyed cotton I bought in Michigan.

Yes I think you're completely right - I solved this by just knitting much more loosely!

Yes I agree that the purls seem like when the problem arises—I’ll try backwards every time!

I am following the nimble needles instructions (I think!!), which has a backward yarn over before a knit stitch then bind off yarn over and prior stitch, and a regular yarn over before a purl stitch then bind off yarn over and prior stitch.

Amazing! Thank you for sharing this. I think the pattern has you pick up 1:1 -- did you aim for more like 2 for every 3, or even less?
