Reverse (or backwards) knitting is something in often do on turning a sock heel. It can be Continental or throwing or flicking. See YT. It just avoids turning the work back and forth but I make a neater heel this way. 2

Reverse knitting is knitting from left to right. (Working yarn on the farthest left stitch). Reverse stockinette is all purls on the RS and all knits on the WS. If you flip it to the WS it looks like stockinette. 1

This is simply not true. 20% -40% of people with PD develop mild cognitive impairment which by definition doesn’t include memory loss and hallucinations. What you’re describing is far more likely to happen 20 years post Dx. Not 3 years. And some remain sharp as ever until the end.

Alabama Senator made posts about two events yesterday on X. Guess which of the 2 events she considers unacceptable? I think this is a cry for feedback, don’t you?

Sen Katie Britt calls a change to viewing platforms for Auburn football inconveniencing her “unacceptable.” She also tweeted about the shooting of kids and teachers in MN 18 kids hospitalized, 3 adults and 2 deceased children did not earn an “unacceptable” rating. This is why we are in hell.

The stitches face different directions w different techniques which is why one row looks closed and the next row looks open. If it doesn’t bother you leave it. But I think any improvement you might get with steaming will be temporary.

We’re trying to minimize the blast radius by doing things legally. Yeah it’s slower, but Be careful what you wish for.

Putting up a strong fight legally is pretty tough with an authoritarian in charge who keeps usurping his constitutional powers & a stacked DOJ that won’t rein him in. So remember when you imply we need to just get it done, you’re our next door neighbor and the effects of war leak beyond borders.

Not to mention MAGA supporters have been obsessed with but enough of an arsenal for their own army for decades. Dems meanwhile believed in their gov & ideals so they didn’t. It won’t be a clean war. Speaking of which we haven’t even touched on nuclear threats. 2/
