Emmaloves: @winter_1 Hey!

21 hours ago

Emmaloves: @SpiderGwan Omg I'm just so used to saying frogging in a usually frustrated sense, I didn't even realise how cute it actually is!! You're right lol! I hope it isn't too much of a struggle XD

21 hours ago

winter_1: Hi!

21 hours ago

Emmaloves: @GiuseppeK Nah it it actually worked out really well. It was a struggle at first because nearly all the strings are 1 colour but there are clear lines of knot, so it was quite easy to do once I got the hang of it. Yeah, you can't really generalise segment/row-by-row, it is dependent on the pattern, but segment is genuienly so much faster and a lot of patters are clearly shapes so they're quite easy to segment

Calyre: @SpiderGwan It's possible I did it with the pattern #58527 (not the whole pattern) I found it very very difficult. It's possible but it takes time. I think it's better with keychains or bookmarks and without too many colors but it depends on the pattern

halokiwi: @SpiderGwan I would assume that at some point it becomes impossible/very hard, but generally yes. The exact answer might depend on knotting skills and on the specific pattern.

1 day ago

GiuseppeK: @SpiderGwan Possible? Yes, but probably not worth the hassle. I've found trying to cram more than two or three threads as a bundle and expecting a single forward knot to hide them all (and not leave Braille in my wake...) isn't the way to go.

SpiderGwan: Btw guys is it possible to make a clean back alpha with multiple color changes in general and in each row? HMMM?🤔🤔😭

1 day, 4 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @Paws14 Seems to me whoever is taking this information should understand and respect if we decline to answer ANYthing, especially since (I'm guessing) they're an adult and asking personal questions of someone still living with and under the rules of her parents.

GiuseppeK: @Paws14 (And please, as a caring rando in a bracelet making chat who cares, don't discuss any further anything that might get you or your family in trouble here--we never know who's watching these days.)

GiuseppeK: @Paws14 Name, photo (smile optional), favorite stroke and hobbies is already more than anyone but your friends (REAL friends) and family have any right or need to know.

GiuseppeK: @Paws14 I definitely would've said so if I'd known listing where we attend school is one of those questions. Irrelevant at best, dangerous at worst.

GiuseppeK: @Paws14 I didn't say so at the time, but I was about to ask why any of that information about you and your teammates needed to be made public in the first place.

Paws14: Hi.

1 day, 5 hours ago

Dsaf_Jane: @Emmaloves that one is cool

1 day, 5 hours ago

GiuseppeK: About halfway through #216584 (the sort of pattern where segment knotting can serve us well). We just need to remember F/B knots on the left side and B/F knots on the right whenever possible, to avoid wonky edges.

1 day, 5 hours ago

GiuseppeK: Segment knotting can be a useful tool, but a screwdriver makes for a rather poor hammer if that's what the situation calls for.

1 day, 5 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @Emmaloves It doesn't look as though "segment knotting" is going to get a knotter too far at all with that particular pattern. It could be I'm missing something, but to me it's silly anytime there's a new topic posted arguing about segment knotting Vs. row by row. It entirely depends on the pattern, and how we approach it.

1 day, 14 hours ago

Emmaloves: @Dsaf_Jane Neat pattern! You probably have it memorised haha. I'm about half way through #189493 I've put the rest of my wips on the back burner for a bit. It feels more managable lol

1 day, 14 hours ago

Emmaloves: @SpiderGwan Oh my God stop, I've been forcing segmenting on #189493 it's such a nightmare 😭 So much frogging. But, I say it's better to frog, the mistake will only make everything worse, especially for normal. However, if it's only a few knots and you notice like 10+ rows later, maybe at that point it's better to leave it lol

Emmaloves: @penguins06 I spent 3-4 days around christmas last year winding up 120 bobbins I think, so worth it haha. But I didn't know bobbin winders existed, wish I had known before spending so much time on it 😭

GiuseppeK: @SpiderGwan Uh-oh... What did you DO? 🤪

2 days, 13 hours ago

Warhorse: @penguins06 What brand of thread did you get? Personally I prefer DMC or this other one, Tyche Special for normal patterns. The Iris stuff is really thin and scratchy, but good for alphas.

Emmaloves: @GiuseppeK Awkward 😭

2 days, 19 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @Emmaloves Although most days, the greatest immediate risk is making sure our shorts and sandals are stashed high enough in the bamboo that certain pups can't get it. Too many times, one of them has swiped my shorts while I was out and deposited them in the jungle, forcing me to walk home in a Speedo...

Emmaloves: @GiuseppeK The great stink lol. It's underreported how much it happens now though. At least it wasn't the great fire of London 2.0

2 days, 19 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @Emmaloves But no, I wouldn't wanna invite anyone to tag along if they weren't a competent swimmer--it's no joke out there.

2 days, 19 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @Emmaloves But they used to let out so much more. There was at least one occasion when there was so much waste in the river, it caught fire from the sheer amount of gas.

2 days, 19 hours ago

Emmaloves: @GiuseppeK I disagree. They let out so much sewage it's horrendous. 100s of years ago it's freeze over in winter, people used to set up markets over it, so it was very useful in the past

GiuseppeK: @Emmaloves Usually around this time of year, it's like a treadmill out there. Face north, and try to stay in the same spot for however long you decide you wanna go.

Emmaloves: @GiuseppeK Oh nice, what country? The Thames is filthy 😭

2 days, 20 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @Emmaloves The country's longest river is a two minute walk from my place. The origin is only about 60 kilometers north, so it's about as clean as it gets, too.

Emmaloves: @GiuseppeK I already feel the vit D leaking from me 😐 But the sun is actually just coming back out so I might try to sit outside if it warms up a bit. Where did you swim? Lake? River?

2 days, 20 hours ago

GiuseppeK: No sooner did I crawl out than the sky got gloomy again.

2 days, 20 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @Emmaloves Glad I took advantage of the break in the rain to get some swimming in earlier. Just enough time to get some vitamin D. 👍

2 days, 20 hours ago

Emmaloves: @GiuseppeK Thing is, it's either boiling or freezing, literally no in between. So I'd rather the heat, at least I can sit outside that way. Sometimes I think I'm cold blooded, I love basking in the sun lol
