NEW Corner to Corner C2C Crochet Brush Stitch
Mikey developed a stitch combination called the Brush Stitch. Crochet diagonally with lines going in the opposite direction. The stitch is similar to the corner-to-corner with different anchoring points. The stitching causes space to appear, and the space is going in the opposite direction, which looks like eyelets. Very easy to understand once you get your mind wrapped around it. The stitching…

Another bonus to learning a fiber art is being able to speak to others in a Lovecraftian language that nobody else understands...

All my current worries about how much this bag will shrink would have been allayed had I felted a swatch.
Yet, did I felt a swatch ? No. Will I felt a swatch next time ? Probably not.

Working on a wheelchair bag again. My first two were always intended to be replaced, as they were just prototypes. Hopefully this one will be more permanent.
Idk if my notes and vague diagrams are readable at all, but I've been really thinking this one thru. Or trying to, anyway. My other two wheelchair bags have not included a way to cover the contents, which was a poor choice that I am now reaping the consequences of (everything gets wet when it rains). So the flaps are a new element that I'm not sure of, but I think will be necessary. Also will be lining it in black felt from a thrifted and then felted merino sweater. Actually, it was already a little felted when I got it. Probably why it was donated in the first place. I just felted it way way more.
Kinda worried about running out of yarn actually. And about the bag turning out small.

Maybe I did this to myself but it does irk me when people see me knitting and they ask who it’s for and I say it’s for me and the immediate reaction is “you should sell it” yeah… let me spend at least a week’s worth of my free time making an item I like, want, and would wear just to sell it on etsy, making at most a £2 profit on materials and not being compensated for my time whatsoever 👍🏻
#i say maybe i did this to myself because historically i have gifted most of the items i have knitted#because the venn diagram of things i like to knit vs things i like to wear is actually 2 circles that don’t touch#i looove making hats. i HATE wearing hats#also i love making baby clothes but i don’t have a baby and i’m not going to have a baby#however lately i’ve gotten really into knitting socks and i really like to wear knit socks. it’s like the most affordable way for me to get#quality wool socks. and i’m going to be watching my shows anyway. the time will pass anyways#but it feels like people are deliberately making me feel weird for wanting to make stuff for myself and not profit off my hobby#and like i’ve made 3 pairs of socks to gift already because ‘tis the season or whatever. and i’ve started another pair for a friend whose#birthday is in january#genuinely it’s very weird to hear ‘you should sell it’ or ‘oh i want one!!’ about an item i’m making for myself. after 18 years of gifting#or donating basically everything i’ve ever knitted. like i’ve gifted 2 double bed size crochet blankets#everyone i’ve known who’s had a baby has gotten a cardigan or a blanket or hats or all of the above#i spent october making poppies for the church. i’ve never even stepped foot in my village church mind you. my neighbour asked me to help#do you know what i own? that i’ve knitted? a pair of mittens and a pair of socks.#you want some socks from me? alright. that’s anywhere between £6 and £10 for the yarn and that’s optimistic#i’m currently making myself a pair with hand-dyed yarn that cost me £18 including delivery#the needles i use cost me more than £10. time… let’s call it 24 hours per sock#i don’t know anyone with 18 years experience who makes minimum wage so let’s call it an even 600 for my time. tbh#DO YOU SEE how this isn’t a viable side hussle??? i physically cannot charge what my socks are worth#if i like you and you’re willing to wait; socks are free or cost whatever the yarn costs#if i don’t like or know you venmo me £620. and you’re still going to have to wait.#just pisses me OFF when people suggest i make an etsy page and they say it like they’re doing me a favour or giving me great financial#advice. like you’ve seen me sitting here all evening and i’m barely done with the cuff.. do you actually think selling these for £20 maximum#is going to help me out. i’m not selling them. they’re FOR me. i’m making them because i want them#also when my friend’s family was saying this to me and i was like ‘well the yarn cost a fiver’ and they got quiet and i was thinking yeah…#a fiver is the maximum you cheapskates would pay isn’t it. a fiver is cheap sock yarn bought on sale. or yarn that probably isn’t actually#good for socks. like don’t presume to give me financial advice when you’re this out of touch with the market please#next person who asks when i’m going to start selling socks is getting this whole rant in entirety tbh i don’t care anymore#personal#edited to add that i didn’t even get into etsy fees or whether i would even be noticed among the mountain of dropshippers LOL

Slowly getting bigger. I'm only working on it about once every week or two, so it's going to take a while to finish. Soon though, I should be able to start the second skein. Pattern is "For" from Hooked On Sunshine.

Crochet Daisy Diamond Rug Pattern
Crochet Daisy Diamond Rug Crochet Daisy Diamond Rug I made one of these Crochet Daisy Diamond Rug Patterns for our cats. Cats are attracted to circles and we strategically placed this in our home. I made mine with T-Shirt yarn that was about the same thickness as 4 plies of Lily Sugar’n Cream yarn put together for the thickness. Riverstone loved her rug. Her safe spot to sit and keep off the cold…

I've been SCOURING the internet looking for a good pattern for crochet lace gloves because I want to make pairs of gloves like they wear in Bridgerton. I've been crocheting a mock-up based off the best pattern I could find but it still wasn't what I wanted and I was trying to adapt it without much success.
While looking for something I emailed to myself like 2 years ago for another project, I found out that almost exactly a year ago I had emailed myself the PERFECT crochet lace glove pattern. Apparently I never actually opened the email after sending it.
God my past self is so helpful sometimes.

occasionally they are like pastry patterns but missing the number of hours you should ideally let the pastry rest (missing any indication of stitch count except what you can scrounge from various ever changing abbreviations) and sometimes the amount of butter listed in the ingredients list is different to the amount listed when the step actually comes (what the pattern says the stitch count should be but despite unravelling and reravelling you find you are always the same number off, without making any mistakes, hence the pattern is wrong) AND YET they still expect the pastry to be perfect
Some knitting patterns are like pastry recipes* and some are more like soup recipes**.
Normally, I knit soup, but I’m knitting pastry at the moment and it is a different experience.
*follow these instructions exactly
**here is one way to make soup, but you can always just use this as a jumping off point and add whatever’s in your fridge and you will still get soup
