Hey I just found this community and your post. I love this picture, although the location of the shifter made me laugh… my first road bike that I commuted on had downtube shifters. A Univega (named Vegas, what else) that was a handmedown from a cousin. I felt so fancy when I eventually got indexed shifters on the handlebars!
Unpopular opinion maybe, but my peeve is when men stand to pee. It gets everywhere and is so disgusting. Every weekend when I’m bleaching the walls and everything in the “splash zone” it irks me that guys won’t also just sit to pee.
One giant drop stitch is a good description for the fabric, with maybe some macrame in the middle there...
I guess a third hand would make it easier to deal with working directly from the skein?? It kinda reminds me of all the cheap product listings where knitting needles are pictured with crochet fabric/being modeled like crochet hooks (& vice versa)...
This didn't go where I thought it was going... in the best possible way. I love the positivity and genuine goodness in this post and these people. Thank you for restoring a little of my faith in humanity.
