typically, I am out of my depth on my next knitting project:

https://www.garnstudio.com/pattern.php?id=5522&cid=17 is the pattern i would like to make - I would also accept being directed to something similar (kind of a shrug with armholes type thing) that will also use my 250 g (530 yds) of bulky yarn.

I am not sure how to read this pattern. I also don't have double pointed needles, and would like to hop straight into circular.

any tips for what they mean by "the pattern"? tips for the armholes?

"K 2 sts in every st" - is that knit 1 front and knit one back, or sorta knit 2 front? or something else?

hi! I am having a great time. this next yarn is so soft, this will be fun.

Wondering if anyone can recommend a (free) way to follow Instagram feeds in an RSS reader? I searched online for a way to convert an Instagram user's feed to an RSS feed but it appears it's “complicated”…

I self-host #FreshRSS and would like to be able to follow some music-related Instagram feeds which post about local gigs etc. I ditched my Instagram account a few years ago and won't ever go back, but it would be great to be able to see announcements of gigs and that sort of thing, from people who don't use anything to get the word out apart from the dreaded Instagram…

Thanks in advance!

I'd like to make my pixel art site more mobile-responsive. A lot (if not all) the doll/art pages end up with content off to the right, so the viewer has to scroll side-to-side to see everything.

Right now, my art, blurbs, and base credits are in HTML tables. Is there any way to make it so that if it's being viewed in a narrow browser window, the table cells will stack?

I'm also open to suggestions of other ways to display my art that don't involve tables. I'm just a very old-school coder, so HTML and a bit of CSS is all I know. 😅 I'm just not sure what's possible right now!

Quilters of Mastodon: lets say I have a bunch of equal-size rectangles that I want to piece into strips (actually, I want sashing on both short and long sides so I can make a brickwork-type pattern. Should I:

A) sew sashing on the short side, piece it into a long strip, and then piece a long strip of sashing to the long side of the pieced strip?

B) sew sashing to the short side of a rectangle, then the long side, then piece a bunch together into a strip?

C) sew sashing to the long side of the rectangle, then the short side, then piece together into a strip?

D) a secret fourth thing??

What’s going to be best for seam-allowance management, minimizing distortion, and general ease of use?

@artcollisions any advice?
