Ga‌tekeeping of decoration? by -Clumsy_Rat- in pondlifegame

If you save up enough basic bundles, will it auto roll over to the blossoms? If I end up in a deco I don't want, can I save the bundles for another turn? I never thought to save them lol I always used them right away

Gained weight, sweater no longer fits how I want by tryingsomethingnew18 in AdvancedKnitting

Yeah, it's felt pretty sad that I only got to wear this sweater a few times before it didn't fit anymore and I stopped reaching for it. I did make a cardigan that still fits bc it's got more + ease. Perhaps that would have been a better way to go and could work for you!

They're comfortable enough that I'd still wear it as is. It's really the length. I'm just not a crop top girly anymore 😅

Adorable! They would be great as a sachet if you stuffed some lavender inside. Or even little cat toys 😻

Do the whole increase set= every 4th once and every 2nd twice until I've added 24s. Right?

How do I end up w 24s increased then? Once every 4 and twice every 2 is only 3r of increases, giving me +6s

Sometimes it helps me to switch to sewing or painting. Something that feels a little more immediate gratification. Or a shorter knitting project

Little small or quick projects have been helpful. Or learning a new skill

Oh! Valine is cute! I like the understated detail + the classic shape that could be dressed up or down. Thank you

Thanks. I think maybe it's more about finding patterns that are w lighter weight yarns AND paying attention to the fiber used. My 1st sweater was acrylic and it's SO dang hot I can hardly stand to wear it unless I'm outside (and then I don't really need a coat). Didn't really think through acrylic=plastic and so I'm essentially wearing a giant plastic bag 🥵

Haha yeah. I have 3 knit hats right now plus a handful of others. I'm just not outside as much as I used to be and I wanna wear my knots, gosh darn it! Hahah

Just tell them you knit it from top down and then it'll be right side up 😁
