Today's cover is historic for 2 reasons. STS-51-F (19th shuttle flight) performed the only abort of the space shuttle era when an engine failure forced an "abort to orbit"...putting the shuttle in a lower than planned orbit for the mission. Also, Spacelab 3 flew before Spacelab 2 (a little trivia).

Step 1: YokeβCast on 51 sts
Whatβs the best cast on method for a yoke? The neck edge gets picked up after the body is finished and Iβve never done that before...Iβve only ever started from the ribbing at the top. Is long-tail ok? I usually use long-tail.
Iβm making the Spot Sweater by Anne Ventzel and I am SO SO SO excited. First time doing color work!
Thank you in advance for your help. Iβm itching to begin the pattern and your advice will get me started!

21 years post op (Open Roux en Y). 5β3β 51(F) 310lbs to 118 lbs. AMA
Iβve been lurking on this sub and see the majority of posters are considering surgery, scheduled or recent, or relatively new post-op <5 yrs out. Iβd consider myself a βsuccessβ though my daily life and health is impacted by having had bypass surgery. Especially as I am getting older.
There was no one to ask real questions when I was making my decision. Iβve never once regretted it though, even with the challenges it brings.
Edit to say: ALCOHOL IS THE DEVIL. It should not be consumed post bypass. Abuse/addiction are such huge risks. I never drank before the surgery. I would have 100 % said βnot meβ and discarded the warning. Just donβt!
Edit: Thank you for all the great questions! I hope I helped some of you. Iβm only one experience YMMV.
If you have further questions feel free to DM me. Good luck!
