Oh man that's adorable. It's a wee bonnet! With i-cord! Good luck, I'm sure yours will turn out great. The construction looks really interesting, I might have to make one too.

I set down a sock in frustration (a 46 row heel flap? Uh not gonna work) and opened Jez. Don't have a picture of the frustrating sock, but I recently finished designing and knitting a shawl for myself. It's supposed to look like a Kansas wheat field skyline. It is full of snuggles for me.

I am not in any way saying I agree with anti-vaxxers, but I'm pretty sure vaccinating pets but not kids is totally workable for them. They're worried vaccines are going to make their child autistic, they don't see it as denying them a health precaution. I don't know anyone who is worried they're going to make their…

I have found tissues laying outside the trash can with wet spots and bits that had been eaten. It took me finding them a few times to realize that SO uses them to clean out earwax, then the cat smells them and pulls them out of the trash can to eat. We have a trash can with a lid now. Ew.

Nope. Genesis 2:18, KJV "And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him."

There were two sizes of cups, and you could fill one for a flat rate. My SO loved it, and went there pretty often because they rotate out the parts and you never knew what…

1. Weaving and knitting are NOT the same thing. I do both, and you can't accomplish one with the tools from the other.

I start by boiling water in a kettle on the stove (just because I don't have an electric one). While it's heating, I measure loose leaf tea into a Pyrex measuring cup. I also get down a mug and get out the strainer, which goes over the mug. When the kettle whistles, pour over the loose leaf tea. Brew for however long…

So do you have a problem with the terms golf club or panko bread crumbs? Same deal, different original languages...

I'm not sure how much they can do about him under Wikipedia's own rules, since he's not exactly vandalizing pages. I think this is just a symptom of the bigger problem of categories not being part of Wikipedia's original design and the current system is not scaling up well. The talk page for American novelists…

As far as I can tell, this is an ongoing discussion that the group of Wikipedia editors has not figured out a solution to, but user John Pack Lambert seems to be the person who started this.

Aren't you using your own anecdotal evidence to sweep aside what literatebrit said, with the implication that they just don't understand how to do cursive correctly?

It eats you, starting with your bottom.

America is not Africa, though. Condoms are abundantly avaliable and a much better way of controlling the spread of STDs with the added benefit of not chopping bits off of babies.

George Tiller and the aftermath from his murder.

I used a whiteboard to do my math homework once I got to college and had to type all of my work to hand in. Less high tech than the other options, but worked great.
