hang on. just casting on stitches for my next beanie.
2:13 am
sprite

good girl :D
2:13 am
sprite

I have another 100 words to find so will be here a little longer
2:15 am
grannyrose

trying a new pattern, using 4 needles. pray for my sanity..
2:16 am
sprite

you can do it. It just takes some getting used to.
2:19 am
grannyrose

have been digging through boxes packed over 20 years ago. found at least 3 lots of garments to finish. meanwhile knitting beanies in readiness for next winter as part of my contribution to the homeless, and also the Seamen's Mission. AND knitting mini teddies to put in pockets on knitted blankets for children. busy hands, and loving it.
2:20 am
sprite

I know exactly what you mean. My hands are never empty either. Can't watch telly without knitting or crocheting something. Am so glad my shoulder is healing so well, and that I can do things again. I cooked curry yesterday! With a cutting aid, but still. Yay for me.
2:22 am
grannyrose

yay indeed sprite. well done you! so proud of your accomplishing healing so quickly.
2:23 am
sprite

with everybody yelling at me I was doing too much, I am so happy to know I was correct in observing my own body and its limits. Broken bones need lots of energy, blood, calcium etc to heal. Can't get it there if you don't move.
2:24 am
grannyrose

i couldn't believe how good the condition of this knitting. pack away for 20 and more years. it is like it was yesterday when i started each project. the yarn is still as good as the day i bought it.
2:25 am
sprite

that is lovely
2:25 am
grannyrose

from memory you wear synthetics only??
2:26 am
sprite

yes. Cannot bear wool. Except some merino, for some reason. But all other wool itches like crazy
2:26 am
grannyrose

okay.
2:26 am
sprite

I remember being a little kid. I had to wear woolen tights. I spent all day sitting backward in a deep chair, on my knees.
2:28 am
grannyrose

awwww you poor thing. and i can only wear cotton. no wool...too warm. no synthetics.... i get very sweaty, and it feels like it is compressing me.
2:28 am
sprite

yes, I can imagine that for you, with your high temps
2:28 am
grannyrose

counting stitches...please shhhh
2:31 am
grannyrose

yay.... 114 stitches, just the number i need. WHEW !!
2:31 am
sprite

very good!
2:31 am
sprite

and remember not to pull the wool too tight when switching needles... just enough to make the stitches line up
2:34 am
grannyrose

riiight...
2:35 am
grannyrose

and 114 makes 38 stitches on each of the three needles. nice!!
2:35 am
sprite

*grins* ikr? Was my struggle for years, couldn't understand what I was doing wrong, that you kept seeing the place where I switched needles. Until I realised I didn't see it at that place, but one stitch over.
2:36 am
grannyrose

so i knit using the fourth needle to switch needles, right?
2:37 am
sprite

yes. Essentially, you simply knit as always, you use the empty needle as working needle. And you have two needles with stitches that are lying dormant until you get to them.
2:39 am
grannyrose

and you end up with a continuous piece of knitted fabric right?
2:39 am
grannyrose

no seam??
2:39 am
sprite

yes. You create a tube
2:39 am
sprite

no seams
2:40 am
grannyrose

throw in the cabling and you have one Rose gone gaga..lol
2:40 am
sprite

*giggles* Best advice I can give is to take your time, enjoy every stitch and don't hurry toward finishing.
2:45 am
grannyrose

will start the actual knitting after dinner which is being heated up now.
2:45 am
sprite

sounds like a plan
2:47 am
grannyrose

how you doing with the grid? need a hand?? i have a few minutes.
2:48 am
sprite

31 to go. So far, so good. I have most biggies. 10/12 7s and half the 8s. Not bad for a wednesday ;)
2:49 am
grannyrose

dang ! there goes the timer. yay sprite! you are rocking it girl. love ya! see you in the soup!!
2:49 am
sprite

*giggles* have fun, sweetie. Enjoy dinner and the knitting. Stay strong. Aloof is good.

hi champ
1:39 pm

can't find that ha 6-8-7 series
1:45 pm

clues for any 8s please. ty. with stat please. ty
1:50 pm
crosshair

Ap 8/50, ha 8/55, mi 8/55, pl 8/45
1:51 pm
cybernan

don't have any mkg
1:51 pm
cybernan

have gone to list in frustration, but that doesn't help either -- finding words I've never seen or heard of
1:52 pm
cybernan

but no 8's
1:53 pm
crosshair

I also have not found any. I just used lickety to get the stat for mkg
1:53 pm
crosshair

They must be some doozies. :/
1:58 pm
Gillie

mi8 is probably the most normal - means to not fit in properly
1:59 pm
Gillie

pl8 is plural, ha8 has an adjective ending, ap8 is a kind of rock
2:00 pm
cybernan

not misaline
2:00 pm
crosshair

Ty, found the mi8
2:01 pm
cybernan

ha 8 comes between a 6 and a 7 - don't have those either
2:01 pm
crosshair

Think of ad 5/14, Nan
2:01 pm
Gillie

pl7 is a shorter alternate name for a precious metal, or an alloy that includes that metal according to some definitions
2:02 pm
cybernan

hadapt
2:02 pm
crosshair

For the mi8 that is
2:02 pm
cybernan

nothing is coming to me for any of these
2:03 pm
Gillie

ha6 is "a small molecule which, when combined with a larger carrier such as a protein, can elicit the production of antibodies which bind specifically to it (in the free or combined state)" (if that helps)
2:03 pm
Gillie

ends with a number
2:04 pm
cybernan

it probably would if I felt like googling it -- this is supposed to be fun, not work! thinking about giving it up and doing something else.
2:04 pm
crosshair

I read all through science claas. :)
2:05 pm
cybernan

if something isn't done to get rid of all these outlandish words we've never heard of I may be quitting the game altogether.
2:05 pm
crosshair

It can be annoying, to be sure.
2:06 pm
cybernan

got the mi -- just realized your clue referred to the mi not the ha
2:06 pm
Gillie

They are legitimate words, just not in common use - do you do Squaredle?
2:06 pm
cybernan

no
2:07 pm
crosshair

Well, I have one 8. When the other three are my last words I will worry about them then, I suppose.
2:07 pm
cybernan

I do this to try to keep my mind from stagnating. It seems to me that latin terms should not be accepted no matter how legitimate.
2:07 pm
Gillie

Squaredle is limited to what have been decided to be "ordinary" words, although you get bonus points for other words in the dictionary
2:07 pm
cybernan

Neither should French or any other foreign language
2:09 pm
Gillie

Well, ha6 is an English word, coined in the 1920s, apparently, although it is related to a Greek word
2:10 pm
cybernan

small molecules that have something to do with antibody production is not english to me
2:11 pm
Gillie

It's not any other language
2:11 pm
cybernan

and certainly not common usage
2:11 pm
cybernan

unless one is a biologist I guess
2:11 pm
Gillie

As I said, not in common usage, but definitely a legitimate word - do you think English speakers shouldn't talk about subject you don't understand?
2:13 pm
cybernan

no but I do think that for entertainment purposes such discipline specific words should not be considered as part of the solution to the grids..
2:13 pm
cybernan

there is no satisfaction in this game anymore when the grids become impossible to solve
2:14 pm
Gillie

So you might enjoy Squaredle more
2:14 pm
Gillie

They were clever - they got their users to decide which words are "normal"
2:14 pm
Gillie

Although I still find myself disagreeing with some of the choices
2:15 pm
crosshair

I will beat my head against the Babble wall for a bit longer then read a good book. It helps :)
2:15 pm
cybernan

I will have a look at it. I guess it is an age thing -- so much harder to learn anything new than it used to be. Have noticed that more and more over the last year or so
2:16 pm
crosshair

I notice lately, Nan, that as I get older I have less patience for really annoying things.
2:16 pm
cybernan

that too crossy
2:17 pm
crosshair

Been reading more--which is good. Ever since home internet and all these devices my attention span has gone to hell.
2:18 pm
joansiebone

speaking of squared. It is set up to find common normal words to finish the puzzle.. If one is eager to find all the words in the grid; the prize is a picture of darling toddler
2:18 pm
crosshair

At one time I used to read four books a week. :)
2:19 pm
joansiebone

squaredle
2:20 pm
cybernan

annoying how sometimes the monkeys find the words at at others nothing
2:21 pm
crosshair

In the last two years I have overworked my monkeys, and they all quit on me :/
2:22 pm
crosshair

I see players at the flip do grids in record time, then I need a drink. :/
2:23 pm
crosshair

Mmm, might be better for me to come at this grid half in the bag. :)
2:33 pm
crosshair

Nan, the ap8 ends in not day.
2:34 pm
cybernan

ty crossy
2:35 pm
crosshair

Had to get a list of all rock types, find one that start with ap, then look through all the derrivitives of that rock type before I found it. :/
2:36 pm
cybernan

pl 8 is the plural of a 7 that ends in a fork part but different last vowel
2:37 pm
crosshair

Ty, nan. Got it
2:38 pm
crosshair

Just need the ha now
2:41 pm
cybernan

same here
2:41 pm
crosshair

Huh. Monkey just gave me a dh word
2:42 pm

Think of last name of Charlie and the choc factory author.
2:44 pm
crosshair

And pl for the five
2:45 pm

yes that is a babblet I remember because of Roald
2:46 pm

I was a parent volunteer in my children's school library for 3 years

2:56 pm

Waving the white flag on the grid. The book I am in the middle of is calling me. Good luck, Nan.
2:57 pm

3:15 pm
cybernan

done - broke down and googled the tiny molecule - my last 3
