Came here to say Tetris!
This reads like a sideways “leave the bike at home or you’ll die” post, but assuming the satirical tone is my own dark-humor brain, it does make sense to have things in order regardless of transportation methods. Fatal car wrecks happen every day.
To clarify, I don’t live in a city, I live about 30 minutes outside of one, where almost everything is a 20+ minute drive. And it wouldn’t be my main mode of transportation (I couldn’t bike to work, I’m uncomfortable walking to my car at night when I get off, there’s no way I’d bike home), just quick runs to the closest grocery store, or maybe some trips to the coffee shops that I’ve noticed I pass while driving to my longer errands.
Thanks for the info! I also can’t memorize lace, but I still enjoy knitting it so I get what you’re talking about. Please share your bixbite when you start it!
Brioche is on my list of things I want to learn in the near future! Is it fun? Is it complicated? Would you recommend this as a first brioche project? Looks great so far!
Thanks! Could be, I’m not a very consistent photographer or a morph expert lol. I just like watching her explore.
I think she just enjoyed exploring the folds/irregular hiding places. It’s a pretty thick yarn so it probably gives her a feeling of security.
Mine too! I feel like it’s the best way to avoid wasting yarn. As for your question, if I’m starting with a skein/anything hard to pull from, I make it into one ball. Then I borrow my husband’s kitchen scale, tare it with a yarn bowl, and weigh the ball of yarn in grams. Leaving the ball on the scale, I hand roll a ball from the end until the number on the scale is half of the original number. I even swap the balls to make sure they weigh the same. Then I cut the yarn between the balls and just hope my gauge stays consistent enough to use up the yarn at the same rate!
She sounds adorable! And that’s hilarious! We used to have a lab-size total mutt (75lb, no clue what breeds) and he would try to sleep in our 15lb border terrier/miniature poodle mix’s bed. We had to stop him though because he was flattening the sides making it unusable for the smaller pup.
Lol as long as he’s comfortable!
Right? I mean we’re keeping it available, and he has a bigger bed too, he just looks a little silly.

Thanks! As far as I know she’s a normal. She’s darker just after shedding
It’s a throw blanket for the living room. The yarn was on clearance so I could actually afford enough for an adult sized blanket. I got excited when she started exploring it though!
Yes, I got it too!
