I'm sorry- I shared the link to give an idea of what I meant by northern rescue. Near me they also get called "designer dogs" as a joke- they're basically all mutts. They wander the streets and kind of beg for scraps and eat out of garbages, hence why the shift to a high quality dog food is not recommended. When we adopted ours they shared a care plan that included how to introduce a higher quality dog food, but that was several years ago now and I don't have it anymore.

They get exported as pets to areas that can keep them as an alternative to getting culled en masse like they used to. Animal welfare organisations also arrange for neuter clinics to help keep the population down.

It's recommended if you're adopting a northern rescue that you feed them lower quality dog food, at least at first, because high quality is too rich for them.

Howl's Moving Castle - the book showcases it a lot better than the movie. Kind of kiddish but that makes it a fast read, and I really appreciated the magic system.

It's not weird at all. My therapist had me imagine that part of me is an abandoned kitten, as a self-compassion exercise. It was extremely effective- compassion directed outwards is a lot easier for me, as it sounds like it is for you.

It reads onion to me. I just feel bad for the poor lady whose photo they used.

That's way harder than what I do, but I'm lucky enough to have access to a flat bed scanner. I just print it out, and then scan it at every angle. That way when I email the scanned photos to myself I have all the angles at once.

Thank you for sharing! This is why I asked rather than googling- I would have looked at a definition and moved on, rather than falling into that rabbit hole. I appreciate you.

I think they mean in the concept of someone who would now qualify for MAID who otherwise might have chosen suicide. Or at least that's how I took it- MAID could actually decrease suicides by offering an alternate solution to those without quality of life or hopes of improving.

What's your favourite -dle? (Daily puzzle game?) (self.asklemmy)
 

I do the daily wordle, but lately have been liking the murdle and the hexcodle.

I've tried worldle, but I'm crap at geography. Probably a reason I should play more, but thems be the breaks.

Any recommendations?

More Socks (sh.itjust.works)
 

Apologies for the crinkly right off the needles mess. These are a gift and don't fit me, and I don't own sock blockers (yet).

Vanilla Socks but I made the cuff go straight into the heel because the recipient likes ankle socks.

You guys!!! I made socks!!! (sh.itjust.works)
 

Vanilla Sock by Crazy Sock Lady on magic loop in Estelle Sock twin crazy ball. Was not a huge fan of the yarn, as it is pretty splitty and a little rough but you guys I did it! I made my first ever pair of socks! And the rusticness of the yarn helps hide my beginner mistakes lol

WIP Wednesday- Thanks for all your help! (sh.itjust.works)
 

I'm the crocheter who asked where to start learning to knit a few days ago. I'm now working on my first project.

I'm making a hat! Currently on my 5th row and absolutely hooked (forgive the crochet pun).

Question for knitters (self.knitting)

What was your first project? I've been dying to learn how to knit, with the eventual goal of making socks, but can't decide where or how to start.

I would consider myself an advanced beginner to intermediate crocheter, but when my mom tried to teach me to cast on for knitting I went cross eyed.

Where's a good place to start? What would you recommend needles-wise?

Edit: Thank you so much everyone for the advice!

I ordered size 7 circular knitting needles (bamboo) to start. I'm going to try a hat so that I can get some practice knitting in the round.

My needles don't get here until Tuesday, and I can't walk at the moment, so I'm practicing casting on with chopsticks!

Thanks again

Ghostie Bag (sh.itjust.works)
 

Second ever bag, first time following a graph. Tons of fun. Now I have a bag to use for the next month and a half!

I really like the way the green turned out. I used scrap yarn so the white was actually a 3 instead of everything else which was a 4, and only have a 3.50 hook. Overall, still in love.

Guess the animal (sh.itjust.works)
 

I made this as a gift, but long story short I don't have the right yarn colours or the right sized hook or the right eyes. So I improvised. Hoping it still reads as the animal I intended!

Ps. The recipient knows my current status and why I can't procure the correct yarn, etc. They'll still appreciate it I'm sure.
