Copper because in the Bronze Age, when mixed tin and smelted over a furnace it created a fantastic material for all kinds of usage, e.g, weapons, tools and cauldrons for cookingAluminium as it is now used for product packaging, e.g coke cansA lot of these elements have alloys which are useful for a wide range of functionsHelium is heavier than hydrogenThis is more funny than Scientific but helium can make your voice sound really bright and hilarious, it's used in comedy shows, e.g Mrs Brown's BoysSilicon can be used in surgeryAs for americium, I'm not quite sure.
Knitting is a bit more tedious than most needlework (if that's the right term)Honestly, I'd say noI tried knitting for a year and only got thru one project.Crocheting could be and alternativeFaster, and easier to see resultsIt's also ridiculously addicting:)
Knitting for sure! I taught myself to knit over a year ago and picked it up very easilyI find it to be a lot faster than crocheting and it's way easier to understandMy aunt recently taught me how to crochet after I had given up on it after multiple triesI do enjoy crocheting as you can do so much with it, but my heart belongs to knitting.
I think embroidery was my first craft, printed pillowcases yet when I was 9 or 10 years oldMy mother wasn't very crafty and that was about her entire arsenal of artsy-stuffI learned to sew when I was about 12 out of self defenseMy sisters and I went to dancing school and we made our own costumes, but my mother make a pretty serious mess of themI took lessons the summer between 7 and 8th grade, and was in charge after thatI ended up costuming in a reperatory theatre for a few yearsSomewhere along the line, I decided a lady should be versed in all the feminine arts and bought a few little books about knitting, crocheting, needlepointI learned enough about each to get by, but it was hardAt least I was right handed and didn't have to photo copy the pictures backwardsTension is the hardest thingI knit too tight, so after a while I figured out to use needles one or two sizes bigger biggerI make a small sample piece in the pattern, usually 4 or 5 inchesNot so small actually, but then I see what I'm going to end up getting so it's worth it How about this: check out Michael's or Hobby Lobby, a yarn store or the local community college, and take a classThat will get you started on the right road and you won't screw up so much or get bad habitsI was learning this stuff back in 1967 or so, when minimum wage was agout $1.50 and just didn't have the cash to take a classI watch people who could knit or crochet and that helped a little, but they all did things differentlyA cheap class, or a friend who could watch and tell what's wrong would be perfect for you.
