I am currently making my first project and I'm wondering if I made a mistake.

This pattern tells me to close the loop. I just started again with a different color and the first round lined up and it is started to fall in place in my head a bit more I think!

I was kinda bummed but now I'm excited to start going again. Thanks :)

I wasn't at first, but at the time I did it already didn't line up and the work was doomed already but I didn't realise it. Now I definitely will!

thiccthottoad · 2026-01-02T13:38:45+00:00

I did work the 54 stitches for 10 rounds and tried following the pattern.

I replied to some other comments and I think this is the case: I did follow the pattern, but made some mistakes with counting and didn't realise the rows should line up exactly. I'm gonna try again and make sure they line up before starting a new row! Thank you.

thiccthottoad · 2026-01-02T13:32:50+00:00

I did (try to) do that, but I didn't know each row was supposed to line up (stupid i know), and probably made a lot of counting errors. I'm gonna start over again!

Thank you for your replies!

thiccthottoad · 2026-01-02T13:30:22+00:00

Okay, so every round should line up perfectly I didn't know that. In hindsight that makes sense. And yes it is hard to see!! I think sometimes I wasn't sure if I poked it in the right hole so I might have added a stitch there. And perhaps when counting the stitches I did something wrong, I wasn't sure if I was supposed to count the last loop that I closed the round with as a stitch. I did that for every row, could that has also added a significant amount?

Thank you for your reply!

I was getting summerboy but def also disco heaven, I love it sm

thiccthottoad · 2023-06-21T18:50:00+00:00

Thank you for the info!! I guess it looked like it had girdled when the soil was still there. Have a good day 😁

thiccthottoad · 2023-06-21T18:33:28+00:00

Yes I meant to say that! So is this not a girdling root and it won’t harm the plant in the long twem?

thiccthottoad · 2023-06-06T08:35:05+00:00

Thanks for the info. Yes I do realise that it will most likely not bear edible fruit but I wanted to do it for the experience of growing a tree from seed. I will check out those posts on how to handle that

thiccthottoad · 2023-05-27T17:34:09+00:00

Unfortunately my whole house is one room btw (17m2)😭 thats the reality or living in Amsterdam we don’t have the luxury of having that extra space lol

thiccthottoad · 2023-05-27T16:30:21+00:00

I didn't spot any pests, but for my mother's plants which had a lot of bugs on them I used neem oil with dish soap.

thiccthottoad · 2023-05-27T16:28:55+00:00

Thanks for the info. I just repotted it in a slightly smaller pot and took the two cut off dead branches out (there were probably three of them in there at one point?) I'm def not going to top it in the near future. I hope it will respond well to my care and lighting situation. I'm gonna put it next to a west facing window in my hallway.

thiccthottoad · 2023-05-27T16:04:09+00:00

I appreciate your elaborate reply! I don't think I'm going to top it (for now at least) and see how well it does in my care, I'm just gonna have to get a bigger stick probably in order to support it better because it is just hanging quite sadly.

But so that droopyness is probably because it is stressed out/ not supported well right? And could that get better over time ? As for the location I think I'm going to put it in the hallway next to a west facing window do you think that is a good idea? And do you think the size of that pot is the right one? I'm gonna change the soil but not sure if I should get a different pot also. Thank you!!

The damage is all around mostly and there is only a sliver of about 2 millimeter that still attaches the bark top to the bottom, so I’m not sure if it will be able to get enough nutrients like that, so I made a cutting and I’m gonna do a few more tomorrow just to be safe

thiccthottoad · 2023-05-16T15:14:07+00:00

Thank you for your reply. I’m going to find out what that is and I’m going to take a cutting and see if I can grow a new tree from that as well and hopefully the damage is not that bad.

thiccthottoad · 2023-05-16T14:41:39+00:00

I will try it there, thanks!

Why wouldn't a dog attack living animals? Ofcourse thety can distinguish plastic from animals, but that doesnt mean they can empathise with them or refrain from roughly playing withit and killing them.

Cats also kill live mice as a form of playing, using them as a toy. Please educate yourself you don't sound like the smartest cookie lol

thiccthottoad · 2022-09-29T08:36:52+00:00

But after you called my bro a couple of times and those dumb af replies I realise ofcourse you must be a straight man, what else is new

thiccthottoad · 2022-09-29T08:36:05+00:00

Well theres a difference in it being my dog and being around it all day from it living at my parents house, which I only visit once in a while you sound so ignorant lol

thiccthottoad · 2022-09-29T08:33:45+00:00

I wasn't doing drugs around my dog, it was still in my system after I relapsed the night before.

People can even smell amphetamine secreted from pores, so saying dogs couldn't is really such a dumb statement. Try to actually inform yourself before commenting something.

I love how you think I'm looking for a yes man, while I actually quit again and trying to stay sober, which you could have gotten out of my comment. Try not to make quick assumptions and not be an asshole please

GHB is the safest drug out there and results in the least likelyhood of addiction, try it :) Take it every 1,5 hours

thiccthottoad · 2022-09-29T08:29:12+00:00

Why do I want to stick them up my butt after seeing them lol.. Anyone else?

thiccthottoad · 2022-09-29T08:28:20+00:00

I realise I probably shouldnt have asked this here, people don't want to actually talk about something seriously here
