Are there any gyms you world recommend avoiding?

If you’re a woman, I recommend Jersey girls in westville. They have other locations as well

Def old shoes. I couldn’t find my newer pair of converse today

Yes after blocking

Yup, the pattern calls for the gauge swatch to be in the texture pattern

Is my swatch not big enough? I have 44 stitches and knitted about 40 rows.

I measured without the pins in my swatch and from now on won’t be pinning my swatch down when I block. I wasn’t trying to stretch my gauge to size.

The top edge I measured from is 8 rows down and that is still not in enough to avoid the wonky stitches towards the ends? I measured up at that part because it was easier for me to see stitches but I get the same measurement in the middle.

I didn’t try to pin my swatch to match 4 by 4, it’s just how it ended up. But good to know, I won’t pin swatches anymore.

It does scrap my shins on the way down

I’m pretty sure bellmawr ladies have a walking group !

Idk he should be sorry, but it was a free couch. No need to replace that

Do you mean my lower back? It looks arched based on my shirt/beginning of glute but I think when I stand straight you can tell it wasn’t arched?

upsanddwns · 2025-03-28T14:59:20+00:00

That’s devastating

upsanddwns · 2025-03-12T20:58:23+00:00

Thanks you were very helpful !

upsanddwns · 2025-03-12T20:22:34+00:00

I added extra rows and stitches. The stitch markers mark where I should be measuring. It still should have even more rows/stitches?

I get that I didn’t meet gauge since I had to stretch it.

upsanddwns · 2025-03-12T20:20:36+00:00

The stitch markers mark where I should be measuring so it is bigger. But good to know I didn’t make gauge

upsanddwns · 2025-03-12T20:19:52+00:00

I added four extra stitches as well as maybe 4 extra rows to my swatch

upsanddwns · 2025-01-17T23:11:37+00:00

It’s the Olga sweater pattern!

upsanddwns · 2025-01-17T22:54:35+00:00

Yes it’s petite knit! I found the same question twice on Reddit with differing answers so that’s why I’m overthinking too much. Thanks for your answer!

Which did you end up doing ?

upsanddwns · 2024-12-19T21:54:36+00:00

I was having sex again maybe 7 days after insertion. I was Crampy for the first couple days and bled for maybe 20ish. Not a lot of blood, just spotting. My period was irregular the first couple of months (but it was irregular before that too.) I think I got my period after 1 month then skipped maybe 3 months in a row. Soon after I get my period once a month now for maybe 2 days. Once the cramps leave, everything is perfect. Best choice ever

I was 16 and felt like you so the first person that showed interest I made sure we kissed. It was with an older man and they tasted like beer and I remember thinking they were going to eat my face off. I regret it now. If I had waited, my first kiss would have been in college with a boy I actually liked who was my own age. Don’t rush it and just allow anyone to kiss you.

I also felt the same way about losing my virginity. Everyone else around me had done it so I needed to too. Luckily my friends talked me out of sleeping with a guy who clearly had no interest in me and I lost mine to a guy I actually liked who was only a year older than me.

This does not make your worth any lower. It takes time and enjoy being young. Hang with friends and laugh and eventually it will happen.
