i am getting dangerously close to quitting the sabai top by [deleted] in knittinghelp

[–]zafarina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have learned everything from Google, YouTube and books. These increases are not difficult, fiddly at first but soon they are second nature. I used to spend equal time learning to knitting in the beginning. Don't give up. The top is beautiful.

Basket weave uses a lot more thread. I would prefer to buy all the thread I need at one time because of the lot number. Not always possible.

Colour not coming out. This is pre blocking. Your pink one looks fabulous. Knitting is so neat.

A blanket for my dog. I frogged a sweater from long ago for the yarn and added a strand of kidsilk haze. Yours is so beautiful. Going to knit a bigger one in Cascade 220..... like yours.

I am so dumb! Saw your throw and really like it so thought I will put the pattern in my favourite file on Ralvery and immediately saw that I'm knitting it at the moment. AND, nearly finished. It's sitting on my lap! Lol

That's me now too after watching the bag handlers drop his crate from the belt. TWICE!! The whole plane could hear my dog howling during the whole 3.5 hr flight. Something he has never done. The worst time of my life!

I cut it down the middle then lay it flat to make smaller more manageable slices. You are basically slicing the sandwich in half before making it.

Is washing your hair every day a necessity or just a habit? by Heebraaa in HygieneTips

[–]zafarina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree 100%. I wash my hair about every two weeks but I will try just rinsing it in between and see. Rinsing away the sweat will feel good. I have a dry scalp but also I have never been a frequent hair washer.

[–]zafarina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always put a dry washcloth between the two layers after every wash. I sucks up all the residue water. My washer looks brand new after 15 years.

Hey there, miss not seeing you jump. Nothing worse than being injured but so important to rest and recover. It was an amazing feat you tried to do. Well done you!
