I crocheted a cardigan for the first time.

As per usual, I decided to complicate an essentially simple pattern (Henley style sleeves, crocheted in one piece from the neck down) by doing it in stripes (so, not *too* badly complicated... you would think). Unfortunately, I fell in love with the colors in one of those graduated yarn cake rolls, and the store only had two in stock, but I needed three (so I didn't end up with a crop-top cardi). So I found the closest color matches to those cake rolls colors I could find (close but you can definitely tell), and bought the two cake rolls, plus one skein each of the closest color matches.

(You're shaking your head at me. You are right to do so)

I started the pattern and almost immediately realized that the cake rolls would end up giving me uneven striping.

I persevered. I used the alternate colors when necessary. I started to hate the color variation, but it was about 2/3rds done. I put it away for a year.

And then two days ago I was starting to get sick and wanted something low-effort to crochet while hunkering down with an audio book. So I got it back out... and finished it.

Putting the cuffs on the sleeves was actually fun! I don't love the way the border meets the body, but I actually really like the colors I picked (still), and the variation doesn't bother me so much anymore.

It's not perfect, but it's warm and snuggly, and I've been wearing it for two days. My daughter wants me to make her one.

Success!

Dropping the latest Sketch-a-Wish voted on by my lovely Patreons for June! A cozy scene from Legends & Lattes (by @travis_baldree), featuring Viv and Tandri trying out Thimble's scrumptious Cinnamon Roll! If you missed it, reading this book for this SAW prompted me to make my own Cinnamon Rolls from scratch (for research, of course!) I have a highlight of these shenanigans on my Instagram. 😂 Are we excited for the Bookshops & Bonedust prequel? 🔥

Spirit Tracks swap ayoo✨️

I like to think that Link was part Lokomo, so he could have feasibly hosted Malladus if Zelda managed to get away. That's not to say Zelda's in the clear— Cole and Byrne are still actively looking for her— but Link will work as a temporary solution. At least until his body burns up.

Hope Zelda's good under pressure; she's on a bit of a time crunch.

Redraw of these from 2021!

Some Prisoner Trio related stuff that idk where else to put.

First was actually a scrapped two parter because I literally didn't know where I was going with this. I think I was gonna go down the idea of "King Red gets so sick of TT Red resisting that he just starts flat out scarring him however he could (my first thought went to ice ocean water)" but then I just... Forgot. Oops.

Second... Post Prisoner Trio. These three are SCARRED. And this is only scratching the surface, quite literally.

If you had to base the time frame these three were under... My mind instantly went to at least two years under King Red. And YIKES did it get brutal.

Unsurprisingly Macaque got the least amount of damage. Sure the fillet became an issue from time to time but he usually did the work. Meanwhile Wukong and Red continuously resisted, and since King Red probably hates Wukong WAY MORE than his past self, especially after the monkey king killed his parents, then suffice to say he took most of his brutality out on the stone monkey.

And third... A small assortment of doodles. Including timers on the longest each has had their fillet activated.

Red once got three days, to the degree his body went numb to the pain and headache.

Wukong had the wreck of an entire WEEK to deal with. Absolutely sucked.

And Macaque only got an entire day once due to legitimately covering for Wukong so the two wouldn't get caught after purposefully sabotaging one of the King's devices. Wukong still took the fall for it, but for being the accomplice he still got a pretty extreme punishment.

And for the small doodle of TT Red trying to sleep... Well, I remembered that one ask I read on TT Red indulging in very cutesy stuff to not make himself like King Red. And while stuck in their current position he had an extremely hard time sleeping through the pain.

So... Wukong, knowing full well that the object couldn't be used to break them out but would still be quite "embarrassing" for someone like King Red to have around in his fortress, decided to grant TT Red's request of receiving something cutesy to help him sleep through the night.

That just so happened to be a Fluttershy doll (mlp looks so cutesy doesn't it? Also if Red probably had to choose his favorite would've most likely been between Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle. But Fluttershy is absolutely NOT who he sees himself relating to (he actually does but doesn't know it) and chose that pony in particular. It's also the most soft looking main character there is).

Guess who only just now realized Gab’s red hoodie is probably an allusion to little red riding hood (was too distracted by the obvious Edward elric design parallels haha)
