@TrueBloodNet or put a middle support in under your stand top?

@TrueBloodNet You could use the current one and put a thicker board on top of it. Unless the current one is bowed enough to be obvious

@BenA *sigh*

@Kinnison yeah, prob not.

I think they'd charge him with a felony if he didn't drop enough change into the Salvation Army bucket.

@Kinnison they're charging him (again) for not paying on the 2017-2020 taxes, but he paid those off, in 2021. I don't get that.

@SandHillThicket It's a Best By date. Not a "This will explode into a billion pieces if not used by" date.

If it still smells and tastes okay, and you'll be baking it? I say, use it.

@redenigma @Beanc I had a LB pattern that was absolutely terrible, that was supposed to be a CAL. I think I started it and frogged it 3 or 4 times before I finally gave up, it was sooooo bad.

I believe that I went back over a year later and it had been entirely re-written, they'd had so many complaints.

@redenigma @Beanc Here's one of my beaded shawls - free pattern, I think, and my local Guild had it as a KAL a couple of years ago. I made another one in black for Mom but forgot to take pics. I think it was almost 1K beads on the white one.

@redenigma @Beanc I find that pre-stringing the beads also tends to move them to the purl bar, and on a lace k front/p back they migrate to the back. Hook technique puts them squarely on the stitch.

@redenigma @Beanc Do you string them on first, or add them with a hook? I like the hook version...

@redenigma @Beanc if it's in Rav, you can export your stash list as an xls file and it has the "remaining meters" column. That's what I just did

@Beanc @redenigma plus more that I haven't added to the Rav stash. it's a lot.

@Beanc @redenigma okay, I lied. I only have 378 miles of yarn. it's like 627K yards.

@Beanc @redenigma I have about 180K miles of yarn. lol

I'm in St Louis, and we have many many many words that are (mis)pronounced differently by locals. Many. Too many to list here. lol

@CJLavoie @daniel @Maude A form of that was used on Hispaniola to differentiate Haitians from Dominicans during the Parsely Massacre. Yeah, I remember weird stuff, and listen to Stuff You Missed In History Class:
