That's a lottery win purchase if I've ever heard of one.

Hey, this wasn't my intention at all. I'm mixed race and don't have coily hair but need products. I was speaking from my experience- "no-poo" methods don't work for me. My scalp gets itchy from product build up.

(ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻

Maybe the lower management who barely make anything more than minimum wage bought it out of their own pocket

But what if smelling like earl grey makes me happy?

This works if you use zero products. No gels, no mousses, no hairspray.

I wanted to be that house so bad!!!! With the giant skeleton t Rex but my husband says no and it's his house too so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That's so good. My cats have similar dynamics. The big one, as we call her (despite weighing about 9 lbs), allows me to clip her nails in exchange for 1 (one) kiss upon her forehead per claw.

The small one (5 lbs) needs treats and breaks but puts up with it and me.

I trim my cat's nails because they fight sometimes and I don't want anyone getting hurt. Also because I want them to be able to make biscuits on me if they want to without feeling like I'm getting stabbed.

My problem isn't that they are long. My problem is they are sharp .

I'm sorry, a podcast I listen to has that sound bite as part of their intro. I wasn't sure if you were a fan, "Rise from your grave" is inextricably linked with "what was that?" In my brain.

But if you walk a mile there and a mile back that's 2 miles. Maybe that's too much.

I do the daily wordle, but lately have been liking the murdle and the hexcodle.

I've tried worldle, but I'm crap at geography. Probably a reason I should play more, but thems be the breaks.

Any recommendations?

More Socks (sh.itjust.works)

Apologies for the crinkly right off the needles mess. These are a gift and don't fit me, and I don't own sock blockers (yet).

Vanilla Socks but I made the cuff go straight into the heel because the recipient likes ankle socks.

Vanilla Sock by Crazy Sock Lady on magic loop in Estelle Sock twin crazy ball. Was not a huge fan of the yarn, as it is pretty splitty and a little rough but you guys I did it! I made my first ever pair of socks! And the rusticness of the yarn helps hide my beginner mistakes lol

I'm the crocheter who asked where to start learning to knit a few days ago. I'm now working on my first project.

I'm making a hat! Currently on my 5th row and absolutely hooked (forgive the crochet pun).

Question for knitters (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) by Timecircleline@sh.itjust.works to c/knitting@lemmy.world

What was your first project? I've been dying to learn how to knit, with the eventual goal of making socks, but can't decide where or how to start.

I would consider myself an advanced beginner to intermediate crocheter, but when my mom tried to teach me to cast on for knitting I went cross eyed.

Where's a good place to start? What would you recommend needles-wise?

Edit: Thank you so much everyone for the advice!

I ordered size 7 circular knitting needles (bamboo) to start. I'm going to try a hat so that I can get some practice knitting in the round.

My needles don't get here until Tuesday, and I can't walk at the moment, so I'm practicing casting on with chopsticks!

Thanks again

Ghostie Bag (sh.itjust.works)

Second ever bag, first time following a graph. Tons of fun. Now I have a bag to use for the next month and a half!

I really like the way the green turned out. I used scrap yarn so the white was actually a 3 instead of everything else which was a 4, and only have a 3.50 hook. Overall, still in love.

Guess the animal (sh.itjust.works)

I made this as a gift, but long story short I don't have the right yarn colours or the right sized hook or the right eyes. So I improvised. Hoping it still reads as the animal I intended!

Ps. The recipient knows my current status and why I can't procure the correct yarn, etc. They'll still appreciate it I'm sure.
