What do zoos do with dead animals?

I mean, if an elephant dies what do they do with the body?

If Sean Evans from Hot Ones wound up with an ulcer could he claim a workplace injury?

What's your favourite -dle? (Daily puzzle game?)

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

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.

You guys!!! I made 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

WIP Wednesday- Thanks for all your help!

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

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

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.

I made a plushie!

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

Guess the animal

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.

I learned how to do proper magic circles and now I have a new hobby.

The hobby is tiny octopus friends. Pattern by Mohu.

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