I saw the post you had about fixing a dropped stitch, and I can totally do that on a stockinette that has a right & a wrong side. But I ONCE (and only once) tried to do knitting with stockinette is on both sides, after watching a YouTube video. If you drop a stitch on that, GOOD LUCK. I was done. 😖

Why the U.S. cattle herd is at a 75-year low — and what it means for beef prices
The overall number of U.S. beef and dairy cattle has shrunk to its lowest level since 1951. Drought, rising operating costs and increased consolidation are among the causes.

Trump and MAGA care about crime? Care about crimes against children? Bullshit. Those people he pardoned for January 6? The number of them re-arrested for molesting children continues to rise.

Well THIS sounds legit. Trump loses a lawsuit, doesn’t want to pay, and uses the DOJ to try to destroy the person he lost to. It’s time to kick this piece of shit to the curb. He must be impeached and finally removed. *DOJ opens investigation into E. Jean Carroll. apnews.com/live/trump-a...
