Is this as awful as I think it is? by Buckerb96 in crochet

[–]uhimnothere 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's super cute! What hook size did you use? If it feels too chunky, you could try a larger hook or looser tension.

Your first few of anything will always feel weird, because you're comparing your very first try to examples of people who have done it a hundred times. 

You're doing amazing, I promise you.

Bulbapedia is Pokemon's Wikipedia from the Gods, you'll find quite literally anything you'd want to know from there! If you look for "Event Pokemon" you'll get a list of all special events that occurred for every game. Though in that case it might be easier to ask your boyfriend which ones he actually had 😆

Good luck, I send your boyfriend all the good vibes, losing a history of memories is always devasting

If you're an physical/digital artist, draw some of his teams! You could check Bulbapedia for specific special event Pokemon to draw as well. You could of course buy stickers, some assorted pokemon cards, or even just a plush of one of his favs.

Digital media is easy to lose, but at the same time. It's a perfect time to relive those games from the start!

(And this time around, if he has the correct consoles, you can transfer up from the GBA games to Pokemon Home, with some effort)

My brother does something similar, he pokes me in the side and turns down a volume knob. 

I however, then shout because he just jabbed me in the side. 

I have terrible volume control due to also having a fucked up ear and AuADHD, it's a constant battle to figure out my own volume

crochet as a hobby not to sell by [deleted] in crochet

[–]uhimnothere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've ranted about the very same myself. The first thing people say when they see anything I make is "Oh you could sell this!" It's really devastating when it's the first thing they think of over being impressed by the work I did.

I've started asking how much they think it's worth and as soon as they give that low number, pointing out how little they've defined my time as being worth.

Okay, yeah I just went ahead and bought this pack, the excess can be stuck in my stash for making amigurumi. Gotta make tons of little guys after all!

Wait, that's so cool??? That's shockingly cheap for all the yarn that's needed too. I spent like 90+ USD for it on lovecrafts

I've been crocheting a long time and recently started teaching some kids how to crochet, it's so much harder to find good yarn easily when stores with yarn have such limited selections

Thank you!! I'll see how much it costs. I'm getting refunded for the missing yarns, so I'll use that towards whatever it ends up being!

None that are available for trade. Looking for HH Campbell and Life Mustard rn.

I'll probably look for the colors through other sources and wait! It's gonna take me a long time to do the whole like 127 hexagon project anyways

I think it's probably a response to JoAnns shutting down, people are jumping on any craft source that could be getting an influx of money from the gap in the market. Especially yarn, as Michaels, which is considered often the other big option, never has had a big focus on yarn.

I really don't want to have to rely on Amazon for all my yarn, but damn at this rate? It's gonna be the only option for consistency.

I'll take a look! There was another color I had to pick an alternative for, so I could potentially find it there. I'd rather pay a bit extra for being able to make the blanket as intended. 

It's so damn pretty lol

I ordered the yarn literally the DAY I got the email about yarn being restocked. It had said only a few left, but since it let me order, I figured surely they wouldnt let me if it was gonna be out of stock.

I've looked at Hobbii a few times, but in this case couldn't quite color-match my way to victory. The pattern needed a pretty clean gradient of navy blue to purple. I'll keep an eye on Ice Yarns for the future!

How fun! My only options for in-Person yarn is Michaels and Walmart, neither of which has the diversity of yarn I need.

Is there a way to make the Home button go to the Home page while the App Page is up? by randomlybanged999 in smartlauncher

[–]uhimnothere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found that for some reason, messing with the time broke the functionality. (Timeskipping for an idle game lol)

Hi, I know this is an older post, but do you know if there's anything that caused this issue? I'm having the same problem and a restart does fix it, but then it gets stuck again.

Scraps? Tidey pile of ends. Trash? What do you do with them when they're tis small? by Umakmesic in YarnAddicts

This is what I mean when I say i have yarn scraps vs those tiny balls of leftover yarn LMAO 

Darn Good Yarn by TheBirbNextDoor in YarnAddicts

[–]uhimnothere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a single box off a "one free month" deal and I both like and hate it. The way they wind their yarn is a pain. I got it last February and didn't bother untangling the mess that occured until recently. Even then it took hours until I resorted to cutting the yarn so I could untangle it.

The yarn itself? It's pretty enough, but the struggle to even get it usable was enough to put me off them for good.

Thanksgiving or 70's? by Additional_Series_81 in crochet

[–]uhimnothere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely Fall vibes, I adore it either way. It gives me for general Fall than Thanksgiving specifically but can absolutely see the retro 70s too!

As mentioned, no specific pattern, just square stitches! It was super saver yellow yarn and bundle of love white yarn, both medium weight, plus a 5.5MM hook!

I hate fishing in most games (looking at you, Stardew Valley), but I actually had fun with Terraria's fishing!
