    @cityofdelusion my instinct would be much the same. I might first see if any of the loop will go back to its original place by applying gentle tension along the direction of the pull. Then I’d pull the remaining loop through to the reverse side as you suggested. Whatever you do, stay away from the scissors!

      Sat down and made a tutorial video explaining how to fix a pulled thread / snag in (Sashiko) fabric. Hope it'll help others!

          Do you still have any of these cool octopus stickers left?

            Probably, all the stickers we do are given out randomly with each purchase.....That's sort of part of the gig, you have no idea what you will get and they are not for sale or reservation......

              @Giles Damn, I might have to buy a new shirt and gamble on an octopus sticker then. It's the only logical thing to do.

                @RobeOfTheMagi now this is logic that makes sense. That new neon light sticker is worth £250 with a free pair of 14oz indigo/black thrown in right?

                  is it possible to update the title of my selling thread with a reduced price? Or should i not have put it there, and only put price on the message itself? i'm an incompetent noob.

                    I got one this week with my order of a pair of shorts. You'll just have to keep buying things until you get lucky, but they still had some as of Tuesday when my last order went out.

                    Take the dive...

                      @WhiskeySandwich should be able to edit it in the post. Just make sure if you have multiple posts in the thread, it’s the first one you edit.

                      Also just looked at my own for sale post on mobile — when you hit edit, the title is at the very top and sorta doesn’t look like you can edit it, but you can if you click on it. I usually do this on my laptop and I think it’s clearer on the desktop version, but I’m outta the house at the moment.

                            Does anyone have any simple, yet possibly time consuming games online? Like simple things such as NYT's Connections?

                                  Is any starch applied to the duck fabric like it is with denim?

                                    A sizing agent (usually starch) is used during the weaving process. It is not applied to add rigidity, it is applied to act as a lubricant to reduce friction, and therefore the risk of the yarns breaking and having to stop the loom whilst weaving.

                                      I’ve just knocked the top button off of my Toys McCoy trucker cap and can’t find the thing... does anyone know where to buy a decent quality replacement? After ten mins on google all that’s coming is really poor quality stuff on Etsy or Amazon. The part that was left in the hat looks like the male part of a snap and looks way better quality than the stuff I’m managing to find 😩

                                      Any advice would be appreciated!

                                          @Heavy_blue I’ve already looked 😂 IH UK have the USA one in stock but it would mean cutting a little bit of the hat away to fit the male part of the snap through unfortunately.. 😩
