Left-hand Franklin Relic Glove is complete!!

Turns out the glove that McClintock’s (attempted) rescue mission of the Franklin Expedition found was the right-hand one an expedition member had lost/left behind, so I actually knit the one they theoretically kept with them.

Next—knitting the ‘lost’-yet-found right-hand glove and reuniting the pair.

This has been such an incredibly meaningful and emotional knit for me. Lots of reflection on the act of creation as an act of love, the memories held within objects, connecting to history through craft, and the nature of tragedy.

That’s a lot for a knit glove, but there you have it.

Immeasurable thanks to @dead-ghost-walking , the designer of the pattern. Their research into it makes for a fascinating read; check out their post about it or the pattern notes on Ravelry

I love when you get to the point where you can start to see the pattern forming!

Knitting has actually really helped me at work because it gives me something to do and I can knit and stop and come back to it and. I use it to help game-ify my job. I have completed two scarfs this way. But I only know how to properly knit the main knit stitch Im not good at pearling and I cant count. I want to keep it up because it truly does help but also I have ADHD and how long will the hobby even last this time?

My tastes in women ranges from sunshine and apple pie angels like Katie Ledecky to demon-possessed she-devil that will eat your heart and lick the blood from their face while smiling like Rhea Ripley.

And I love them both and every woman in between.

Michael didn’t expect much from his life apart from just taking care of cipher.

Really,Michael wasn’t expecting anything else,which was sad,but really not devastating.if anything,it was expected due to the fact that he was know for being good at Pokémon battles.

However,when a green haired boy with a little blob of purple come to his place,it seems to say that the world had other plans.

The last that Juliana expected was to have another problem to deal with the treasure hunt right after the one where she needed to say the last eventful thing she did was going to the funeral of a friends dad.

However,went she runs into(literally) the chance of another person being a tamer,she takes this opportunity to the best and decides to find this “rei itsuki”

———

Rei didn’t want to go back to whatever boring life he probably had back in his time.

He said no for a reason.but when god gives you the middle finger and sends you back anyway(two years after too),it’s only fiting to return the favor and give it the middle finger back.

With some unexpected company,of course.

chapter 2 of obtk is out! I don’t really have much else to say but thank the people who supported chapter 1 because really I cannot thank you guys enough.

Now Please enjoy.

dude the blouse i am knitting looks SOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOOD i wasnt like stoked about it before being able to try the bodice on but now that i've put it on like. the fit is immaculate, the length i took a risk on is perfect, the décolletage is the ideal level of low-but-high and feels appropriately risqué after 4 years living in asia without being Tits Out. i want to cast the sleeves on so bad i feel feral

[anxious-logic]

[firstdegreefangirl]

Me: … if you need anything else, my name is Katie and I’ll be here until … about 7 a.m.

Guest: Ooh, I’ve worked those 11-7s.

Me: I’d settle for 11-7. This one’ll be 3-7.

Guest: OUCH.

1.5mm knitting needles ACQUIRED, Franklin Relic Gloves STARTED, I’m vibrating out of my skin I’m so excited.

The love and care @dead-ghost-walking obviously put into this pattern positively jumps off the page. I adored reading the details about the history of the glove, how it was found, and the sleuthing that went into reconstructing it.

The short of it is that during McClintock's search for the Franklin Expedition in 1857 one of the Lieutenants found a glove, evidently lost or left behind by one of Franklin's crew on King William Island. The pattern faithfully recreates that very glove.

If you're a fan of the Franklin Expedition--even if you don't knit!!--I strongly recommend downloading the Ravelry pattern, in which these details are expounded upon. And it's free!!

Already, about 10 rows in, I've been daydreaming about who must have knit the original glove. Which crew member was it for? Were they family, friends, other? Did the original knitter think of the recipient as they knit it, how they would like the pattern or how the wool would keep them safe and warm in the trials to come? Did the gloves bring the recipient some level of comfort, reminding them of home? Did they mourn the loss of the single glove we found?

It's not unusual for me to get emotional about a knitting pattern, but it is unique for one to haunt me like this one does. So looking forward to continuing it.

Me [chanting as a mantra while I knit each stitch]: It’s a WIP, it will look good at the end. It’s a WIP, it will look good at the end. It’s a WIP, it will look good at the end. It’s a WIP, it will look good at the end. It’s a WIP, it will look good at-

Bundle of joy

Her sweet wife's expecting and her teammates being just like family.

Viviane Miedema x freader

Tw: Mention of vomit and a swear..

Wrapped in your coat only your eyes and scrunched nose looking out you sat behind the bench of her team; Viv organized you a bandage for the seat. When the team walks back to the locker room Katie and some other wave at you and as Vivianne makes her way past you she stops at the railing. “Look at you all freezing up, just wearing gloves, what are you hoping for,” you laughed and she rolls her eyes. Her hand reaching for yours intertwining them, “You okay?” She knitted her brows. “you’re quite passive just some jogs.”

“Yeah, yeah, someone kicked me against my shine.”

“Nasty.”

“You can say that loud. Are you alright?” her eyes wandering from yours down to your abdomen.

“I’m fine, we’re fine” her lips curl up and her dimple visualizes on her cheek. “You’re rocking it Anna,” you squeeze her hand, the goner laughed, and you showed how you have her finger crossed, she gives you another radiant smile before disappearing into the dugout.

When the game ends her eyes search for you on your designed seat. “You good Miedema?” her thick accent filling the air.

“Yeah just looking..”

“For Y/N? I think she left ten minutes ago.” The woman takes off as the words left katies mouth.

Banging on the several doors in the restroom she hears heavy breathing behind the last one. “Schatje,” she raises her hand and knocks hesitantly on the door, “can you let me in?”

“It’s open,” you mumble, and she slowly pushes the door open. “It hit out of the blue, couldn’t even watch the end.”

Her hand rubs over your back, her other holding your hair back, “it’s alright, it wasn’t even important.”

“Every game is important for me, seemingly not for her.” Your head rests in your hand as you take deep breaths in.

“She cannot quite understand it,” Viv lets out a chuckle and takes your cheek in her hand.

“Don’t, I stink.”

“So, do I.”

“You don’t wanna kiss me with all the vomit.”

“I’d always kiss you but if you don’t feel like it it’s okay.” She rises to her feet holding out a hand for you, “you wanna come into the changing room and wait for me?”

“I don’t know I’m not sure if the nausea is gone,” you take her hand, and she helps you on your feet.

“Good, small steps, okay? So how are we?” leading you out of the stall and towards the sinks, getting some water in her hands she attaches it to your skin, a prickling feeling runs through your body. “You’re doing so well.”

“I’m just standing.”

“Yeah, and that’s enough,” she places her hands on your tummy which is hid in your coat. “We’re almost done, only a few weeks.” She pecks your cheek, then the other and at last your forehead. “I’m so proud of you.”

“Thank you, my love,” you bring your arms around your neck and snuggle into the crock of her neck, the sweaty smell almost calming you. “I’m ready let’s get this done.”

She guides you into the changing room where you’re meet with cheers and shouting from her mates, Beth almost jumping you to the ground, Viv could catch the two of you before worse could happen. “I can’t believe only a few weeks,” she squeaks still jumping up and down. Two strong arms sling around your body as Katie pulls you into her embrace “Can’t leave before aunty Katie said hello,” she lowers her head to the bump, “Yo hello bud in there, it’s your favourite don’t upset your mommies they’re doing their best and beyond. Can’t wait until you’re here.”

“Oh, girls you’re so sweet,” tears built up in your eyes and your bottom lip trembles they’re taking the cue and hold you in their embrace until Vivianne is ready to go home. “Okay guys see you tomorrow,” she waves for them, and you both step out.

The first days back home with your little bundle of joy was everything besides joy, screaming, crying, vomiting, pooping, people who say it’s easy peasy lemon squeezy should rod in hell. Hectic that was your new normal. Don’t get this wrong the birth of your baby girl was next to your wedding day the best day in your life, Heleen is a sweet girl and looks just like her mom but then she got this cold in the first days being home, she gets fuzzy and screams almost the whole day, neither of you could keep an eye shut, your hearts breaking at her being sick.

After this bumpy start the three of you fell perfect into the family routine and life. The only thing that was a topic that you discussed with your wife was football. She paused training with the girls the first month of Heleen’s life, she needed to get back on the pitch, stay in form, train for her to be part of the squad but that wasn’t as important to her than her family.

“Viv, it’s been a month you can’t stay home and workout here.”

“Why so?

“We don’t have the capacitate nor the girls to push you. You miss them. I know,” you caresses her cheek as you step closer to her in the rocking chair. “They need you. We got this; you still have half of the day with us my love.”

“But what if I don’t want to leave you?”

“I don’t want it either but there are some things we can’t change. We’ll come around as much as we can,” you peck her cheek and rest your head on hers as your hands hold her face. “You’re not a bad person, it’s your job.”

Marking her tenth month she was the first time in the stadium with you, the noise cancelling headphones on her head as she cradles in your arm eyes sparkling as she observes her surroundings. “Quite lovely innit Hel?” you kiss her occipital. “Look there’s mommy,” you point towards your wife who walks behind Beth onto the pitch, she squeaks and jumps in your lap. Heleen fell asleep around the twentieth minutes.

Viv scored twice that day and sent you a heart each time. Your daughter wakes before them and sees them as well, so you think cause she somewhat claps her small hands together, making you giggle. When the games ends you moved closer to the pitch with your daughter tight pressed into your body.

“Look who’s there,” you turn her in your grip, “your favourite aunty.” Katie sees you and runs over to you almost crashing into some other player.

“Look at you, all proud of aunty to win,” she raises her hands towards you, and you hand your daughter to the other woman.

“But careful Katie,” one brow raised, and your pointing finger dared on her.

“You know me.”

“Yeah, the biggest argument.”

“Let’s get you to your mommy,” she coos and walks over to Viv who was wrapped in a conversation with Beth and Caitlin.

“Oh, who’s there!”

“Our biggest fan!”

“Hartendief,” Viv tickles her side, and she wiggles in Katie’s grip and then she takes her off her aunties arm and into her body. “I scored for you have you seen that?” she whispers into her little ear, “I’m very happy you’re here.” She pecks her forehead and joins the conversation again, a smile plastered on her lips.

How do yanderes react to receiving a scarf knitted by a reader?

Knitted with love.

💌 ⤻ ft. ALL THE YANDERES

—> your gifts are only for them.

⤻ reader is gender neutral, typical yandere behaviour, possessive behaviour, obsessive behaviour, soft yandere, mentions of kidnapping (mafia boss), mentions of stealing (the baseball player)

note: i was too lazy to link all of the yanderes, especially since i have so many now, so i will just link my archives when i do joint posts.

💌 ⤻ THE CEO, ADRIAN HOUDE

— He would absolutely be ecstatic but also torn about it. He wants to keep the sweater all to himself, but he also wants to show it off to the world and demand that the scarf be mass-produced and sold in stores. It's a very challenging decision to make, but he eventually decides to keep the scarf all to himself. He is — as he calls himself — a selfish bastard, after all.

— However, despite his internal struggle, he would keep a cool expression and thank you sincerely and compliment your hard work.

— Would gift something as a thank you, probably something designer. Or would just look at the shopping history on your laptop and buy something from there. Or buy all, black cards exist for a reason!

💌 ⤻ THE CHEERLEADER, KATIE WILLIAMS

— Would gush about it loudly about the fact you were so sweet to present them with a gift! Aw, sweet little you! Katie would hug, kiss and gab all over your form.

— Extremely territorial over the scarf, will not let anyone touch it.

— Sets a trend in the University you're at, where partners gift each other scarves.

💌 ⤻ THE BASEBALL PLAYER, JESPER HARGREAVES

— Oddly enough, he would sniff it first. Then he would utterly melt into it, thanking you profusely by holding you so tight it felt like he might choke you to death.

— Will wear it regardless of the weather. Even if it's sweltering hot and he is sweating bullets. You'll probably have to make something more summer-themed to get him to take off the bloody thing.

— Will beg for more handmade goods from you and will “borrow” the things you made for other people.

💌 ⤻ THE ACADEMIC RIVAL, SEO MIN-JUN

— Will not accept it at first. Will try to accuse you of trying to get close to him because of his family and wealth. If you persist, he will throw it into the bin in front of everyone just to humiliate you further.

— While patrolling the rounds of the school, he will go back to where he threw it and dumpster dive just to get it back. Look at how obsessed you made him, you have to take responsibility for that.

— The next day, an anonymous person has given you expensive chocolates. You realise that Min-Jun is carefully staring to see your reaction to it.

💌 ⤻ THE BARISTA, AKIMITSU MINORU

— Is shocked when you do so but immediately accepts and tells you you shouldn't work so hard next time.

— Offers you a cup of coffee as a thank you.

— Very reserved about it but from that moment on, he's always wearing the scarf. But not in ways you would expect. Sometimes it's hooked onto his waist, somethings around his neck — like how it's supposed to be worn — and sometimes just displayed in the coffee shop like some kind of trophy.

— Would convince you into only giving these sort of gifts to him.

💌 ⤻ THE COVER, VALERIO MARCHETTI

— Your habit of knitting started when you were bored and Valerio gave you something to play with. A knitting set, fitting for someone like you. He made sure to give you those blunt materials though, wouldn't want you escaping!

— Was shocked when you gave it to him. Probably sent it to get it checked for poison.

— Even after making sure it's not poisonous, he doesn't wear it. He simply leaves it with you.

— He isn't exactly obsessed (in this part yet), but he certainly is intrigued by you, would wear the scarf just to see your reaction.

💌 ⤻ THE MAFIA BOSS, VITTORIA CONSTANZO

— Utterly ecstatic at the prospect of you doing such a thing for her. It means you're slowly forgiving her, right?

— Will keep the scarf and use it as inspiration for her next collection of dresses, all using yarn. Will make a special dress just for you to wear out of yarn, just like you've done for her.

— You'll probably get more time without your restraints after this, she trusts you a bit more now and will give you a bit more freedom.
