It's the opposite actually. Babies have extra bones that fuse together as we grow.

Cat teeth are more like needles. They also get infected more often.

Are they Kidde? I've had 3 photoelectric Kiddes that started failing and going off randomly. I've been slowly replacing all of mine.

The builder installed them. Occasionally walking through our neighbourhood we hear other people's going off too.

For ambulances, if the air conditioning is broken in the patient compartment it's considered a critical fault and the vehicle needs to be out of service. In the cab it's a minor. Maybe it's in case a judge needs to be transported.

They market it as gourmet or something. If you get Velveeta shells there the sauce is in a pouch.

I think the perspective is very valuable. When Trent wrote the song, he was still young. It gives time to atone, to grow, to do better. When Cash covered it, it was near the end of his life. He doesn't have the luxury of time to make up for his shortcomings. It's a lot more fatalistic.

To answer your second question, no. I don't think it would be as big without his name attached. Johnny Cash was so big, so iconic, that of course anything attached to him would get more attention. And the fact that more people are familiar with his life story and why this song would resonate so deeply with him definitely helped to spread the cover as well.

To answer your unasked third question, personally I prefer the original. I do appreciate Cash's cover though, and am glad he made it.

I almost downvoted you in disappointment

I think he has betrayed many a man. And will do it again.

Your comment made me look at your username and now I regret it.

 

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)
submitted 7 months ago by [email protected] to c/knitting
 

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.

 

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

 

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 (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) by [email protected] to c/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.

Pattern here: https://divinedebris.com/glenda-ghost-bag-free-crochet-pattern-by-divine-debris/

 

I know the colour is light... long story. I hope you can still tell what it is!

 

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.

 

The hobby is tiny octopus friends. Pattern by Mohu.

Dollar store yarn (labeled mini skein with no actual weight), 3.0mm hook. 6mm eyes.
