Busco clases grupales de ukelele xd Me estanqué en mi proceso de autoaprendizaje. Necesito cierta estructura, onda que me digan qué aprender, pero me da cuco ir a clases particulares solo para mi. Onda que me siento más cómoda cuando la atención no está directamente enfocada en mí.
Me hiciste acordar la vez que tomé un bus para ir de Dellorto a Delano xd
Siento que dice harto de la cultura de la empresa el que no puedan ni darse el tiempo de entrevistar individualmente. Onda, para mi es como red flag, pero ya no me puedo hacer la selectiva xd
Nos hicieron presentarnos y luego responder unas preguntas (las mimas para todos). Onda qué programas de diseño manejábamos, que proyecto nuestro destacaríamos como innovador, si llamaran a nuestra jefatura anterior que cosa positiva y negativa diría de nosotros, weás así
Odio las entrevistas grupales, son como los Hunger Games laborales.
Fui a control con el oftálmologo que me operó cuando niña (me conoce de 3 meses de vida xd) y como es usual estuve como una hora esperando que dilatara la pupila del ojo ciego. Cuando salí de la clínica quedé real ciega, menos mal mi mamá podía manejar de vuelta jaja Procederé a encerrarme en la pieza con el blackout hasta que se pase >_o
Same. Me pasó una vez que me tocó esperar para una reunió en Provi y en ese lapso se me acercaron como 4 personas a preguntar direcciones jaja
Como está ese lado del mundo? Boston es igual bin al norte asi que el verano ahi no debe ser como full verano o si?
TIL que el jueves es feriado, no cacho nada todos los días son iguales ;_;
Habemus pega! Sort of. Me llamaron para hacer encargos freelance para un centro de estudios urbanos (de hecho creo que quedé porque conocía a la directora de cuando participamos en un panel en Antofa cuando yo era biciactivista xd).
Jajaja xD El reciclaje es como la vueltita ideal, lo suficientemente lejos para no ir a pata y suficientemente corto como para que no me demore mucho
Basic ranglan sweater. I used a cake of self-striping yarn for the body and finished off the sleeves with a spare skein in mustard. The pattern was very fun and easy to follow, I'm looking forward to knit more kid's projects because they're so quick xD
I've been saving this one. It was my first attempt at knitting in the round and I totally twisted my stitches 😂
I read in the pattern about checking your stitches before joining for in the round knitting, but I didn't quite understood what it meant until I was several rows deep into my project and there was a big turn in the middle lol.
A friend told me that twisted cowls were actually a thing so I went ahead and finished it. I even wore it a few times and then I was made aware I also twisted my stitches from knitting into the back loop xD I could not unsee that so I threw it deep into my closet and forgot about it.
Triple fail:
But wait, there's a happy ending.
As I was getting my stuff ready to move I dug it out from my closet and decided to frog the darn thing. I re-knit it in the Free For All pattern and I'm much happier with it now. I'm looking forward to use this version when cold season finally hits.
(In hindsight I should have done this pattern in the first place, it's been in my favorites forever, but back then I didn't really know how to read patterns in English so I never realized it was knitted flat lol).
I got this cake for Christmas and looking for some way to use it I thought I'd try my first kid sweater. The pattern is a very simple raglan sweater, but the self-striping yarn makes it look way more interesting. I'm gonna need to get a matching yarn to finish off the sleeves, but I'm kinda getting why people love knitting for kids so much, it's so fast!
This is my first knitted garment. Actually the third, but we'll get to that. I got this gradient yarn during my trip to Spain last September. Initially I had no plans on what I would do with it, I had mostly knit accesories and just dipped my toes into shawls, which is what I originally thought I'd make. But when I got back home I though I might try kniting my first piece of garment so off I went to Ravelry and found this lovely pattern from Carina Spencer.
I initially knitted this in my usual size (38) and with US 4 (3.5mm) needles... and it ended waaay too large. My mom said it was because it's a linen/viscose blend and it tends to "give" a lot. So I frogged it and re-knit it in a couple sizes down (same needle size). Still. Too. Large.
At this point I realized knitting willy-nilly wasn't going to work anymore so went ahead and knit a gauge sample, which ended up resulting that I needed to size down to US 2 1/2 (3.00mm) needles. On this third attempt I decided to knit with the colors reversed (teal to burgundy).
MUCH BETTER.
It is not 100% perfect fit, but it's good enough that I'm happy to actually wear this outside so I'm declaring it finished. Finally.
Ok so I finally took the plunge and I'm knitting my first pair of socks. Ever. I'm doing fingering held double because less stitches 😂
Pattern: DK Weight Vanilla Socks Yarn: locally dyed mering sock fingering
I'm following the vanilla socks on magic loop video tutorial by Crazy Sock Lady and it's helped sooo much. I suck at understanding written instructions (probably because english is not my first lanuage) so seeing it done has made things much easier.
I can now totally understand why socks are such a big thing lol.
This was the project I took with me on vacation and it kept me busy during my 3 weeks in Spain. I started knitting it in Santiago, fittingly (however it was technically Spring and not Otoño/Fall lol). Though I 'finished' it mid-trip, I decided I did not liked how it turned out so I frogged it and started all over again. I did less repeats of the garter stitch section and added more repeats of the lace section.

Finally finished my Spring Shawl last week and blocked over the weekend. I thought I wouldn't have any chance to use it because it's technically Spring here, but it's been surprisingly cold so I've been able to wear it and LOVE IT. Everyone compliments it and I feel super proud, even though there are some mistakes here and there that probably only I can see xD
My first post here! I'm doing my first shawl with slow transition yarn. I learnt crochet when I was a kid but I had never done such a big project. I work full time so I run home every day to get some rows done lol. Now that my shawl has grown a bit since taking these pictures that means 2-3 rows a day, but oh well, no rush here :)

I made this as a birthday present for a friend. It is my first succesful project using circular needles. I used 5mm needles, with 40cms cable for the body of the beanie, then switched to a 120cm cable and used the magic loop technique for the decreases.
It is mt first time trying this "bubble" stitch and I was so nervous doing the K4B and 'undoing' stitches lol.
Yarn is worsted weight Dreams in color 0002 from local store Revés Derecho

Hi! I suggested to our lovely mod @thegiddystitcher@lemm.ee about starting a WIP (Work in Progress) Wednesday thread. That way we don't have to wait until we're fully done with a project to share it and we can encourage each other along the way 😄
Feel free to add to this thread with what you're currently working on 😊
I had to reaaally dig up a picture, as I'm the one with the ideas but actually really bad at taking WIP pictures as I usually knit late at night 😅
This was my first try at knitting in the round and even though every pattern warns about not twisting your stitches I actually didn't realize what it meant until I was several rows into my work. In the spirit of Bob Ross I decided to just roll with it, there are no mistakes, just happy accidents!
Pattern is the Meila Cowl from Ravelry: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/meila-cowl
Yarn used is Colors by Reves Derecho in #0837 (DK weight) and 5mm circular needles (unknown brand, my mother had them in her stash lol).
Parece que tienes razón porque me vestí como florerito y me acaban de llamar a entrevista presencial xD
