I love this so much
Cannot describe how much I love this
I need everyone on Normal People internet to know that American Girl Doll Instagram is doing doll protests today. There are tiny t-shirts and signs. AND THEN I realized it's a joint protest with the Barbie ppl, where there are EVEN TINIER SIGNS.

#bikesky his n her e-gravels on order. Be a nice switch from our analog Cutthroats😄. I'm so tired of fighting the hills on the best of days. I hope this helps post heart attack hub (did Tour Divide in 25 days 2019) get his mojo/mood back. (One of the 25% who survived a widow maker)

I just want huge protests. In my community are getting really segmented: Tesla, labor, science, pride...
Somehow we all have to come together.

Here's most of the stock. This is much better than my last attempt from when I was brand new! Much better. I don't like the colors in this yarn though. 🥺

Hey knitters... what are your thoughts on those tiny loop needle sets for socks etc.?

How do you decide what you next project will be? Surf Ravelry/favorites? Go to LYS? Peruse the stash?

Been more than a minute since I've seen a bicycle brand introduce a low-step/mixte road bike. In this case, it an ALLroad bike with all the mounts to make it do everything from gravel riding to daily #transportnotsport errands.

Bravo, Marin Bikes.

Need gauge help. The pattern is baby cardigan. It calls for 18 st 24 rows. I know rows aren't as important at the stitches. I went up 2 needle sizes and got 17.5 st x 26 rows. That .5 can get me in trouble. Should I go down a needle size and try again or do the math to adjust?

I'm wishing for the good old days of usenet and web forums.

Can anyone explain how the socials on Ravelry work? What's the difference between "board" and "forum"? For starters....
