Progress on my storm sweater!

[buttercupyarnart]

I locked in today and finished the first sleeve of the project that has taken me all winter

[buttercupyarnart]

Vernal Rainbow had been plied up. All that is left is skeining this up and washing it.

I’ve made so many mistakes in this one. Even with so many errors, this garment has kept my head and hands busy enough to hold onto the shred of sanity I have left.

My first scarf and cables, 100% Merino wool to keep me warm in this season that's already ending. I'm quite enjoying knitting, can't wait to keep making more stuff. (Shhh don't look at all the mistakes 🙈)

I would call the stream shockingly successful so I will definitely be doing more as I'm able

Got quite a bit spun. A lot of the full bobbin and then everything on the second bobbin.

Lots of lovely people stopped by to chat, it was really nice. Thanks to everyone who participated :D

Moonlit Sky. A variegated mix of rich blues and dark black, beautiful and deep, like the moonlit sky. I created this effect using dyes that bind to the wool but not the cotton for beautiful glints of white moonlight throughout the skein. It is suitable for socks. mothyandthesquid.com 🧶

I stitched this a few years ago, but it seems timely to repost it :D

Making a weighted velvet baikal seal plushie :3

Head and tail end are stuffed w ultra plush fiber fill and the bulk of the body is packed full of weighted pellets that have a nice crunchy sound when you squeeze it. Not weighed yet, but it feels between 1.5 - 2lbs?

The Shoreline Breakup Quilt for my @theterrorbingo square 'The Polar Sea'

Hand quilted, hand appliqued, and hand beaded, 26 x 29 inches

Whenever I tell people I love ice and extreme cold they look at me like I've told them I love getting blisters or something, but there is almost nothing so beautiful to me as ice, the way it looks, the way it moves, the way it talks if you listen very closely

Inspo below from Helsinki, Oslo, and Svalbard

(Also it is available)

Meowrimos

These tiny mossball kitties come from the same ponds and streams as koi dogs, and are often found rolling around with baby guppies. They may be small, but each one packs a big personality!

I sort meowrimos into 8 patterns and 4 pose types - these little babies are affectionately known as nuggets or tater tots

Most of these pieces are sold, but $5+ patrons can order custom meows any time!
