[Baseline Socks]
#crochet#socks#crochet socks#blues#my crochet#completed works#my first pair of socks#such a good pattern#with such interesting and logical construction#i fiddled the numbers to get a perfect fit#BUT THEY FIT SO PERFECTLY#i’m so happy with them#will not take them off this winter#well no i need a second pair in a different colour#and maybe a horizontal texture

Staring between the rolled up socks in my hand and the breakfast burrito wrapped in a paper towel on my desk before confirming, yes, each of those are where they should be.
#don't mind me#it's gonna be a long day#and yes I did believe the burrito was my pair of socks for a solid 5 seconds

Halloween costume hint:
(The stitch marker and the word that describes this colour-pattern of yarn [or fabric] are 2 more hints.)
#i make no guarantees of finishing in time for halloween tho im going thru a lot rn#i DID finish a second pair of Scream yarn socks today tho!!#i just wanted to give my fingers a little break from knitting socks but i have other halloween sock yarn i plan on working on#(november is halloween 2 for me)#but yeah i saw a sample of yarn using this type of seamless cast on (provisional cast on / circular tubular cast on) last night...#...while half asleep and was immediately like Oh. I HAVE to do that costume idea now.#i flubbed the crochet part bc the way i did it made the stitches twisted when i knitted it...#...and i had to pull out every crochet stitch one by one. lol. but at least i know for next time how i gotta crochet it to be open stitches#also i knit backwards (mirrored) so i was surprised i managed to figure out the tutorial on the first go...#...bc the person filming described their actions instead of just showing it so i only needed to listen. it makes a world of difference to me#anyway. now that i got that started i have been shaking in pain all day i gotta try n shower before it gets too late#apparently my new back xrays show that my back does have an issue. but not on the spot thats hurting lmao.#so i get to do an mri and see a back specialist ughhh. also the pharmacy is refusing to fill pain meds for me. it sucks.#AND i finally got a physical therapy appointment.... for the middle of december.... guys i injured my back and#....have been trying to get in to PT since fucking MAY. its OCTOBER.#like fuck my life man i can barely fucking walk. i can barely take care of myself. the pain had been SO bad since i recently reinjured it#so yeah i gotta try n shower before i pass out from the pain.#knitting#Cori.exe#Image.exe#fiber art#horror#halloween#also like this yarn is the closest i could get to colour accuracy that i have in my yarn bin and i only have 1 skein of it which is perfect#bc it means i get to use up probably the whole skein and it makes a difference in the amount of yarn i need to use out of my bin lol#especially bc what other use am i ever going to get out of one skein of yarn? nothing but socks take one skein.#my worst yarn habit is seeing a cool yarn and then buying just one or two skeins. like thats fine for a hat or scarf...#...but i need to learn to knit and crochet more things. id like to make a sweater at least once in my life lmao#((sweater yarn gets so expensive tho bc u need so much. and we're back to me wanting to reduce my yarn stash))#personal

Amidst all my wips there's one that's quite small
And endearing
And easy
But also it's the second sock, so I just kinda forgor
I swear spiral socks are my favourite kind. You don't need to think where to put the heel. You just Knit A Tube till you are halfway through the skein and then bind off and start the next one
I believe spiral socks deserve more love and attention
It's just 4x4 ribbing, moved 1 stitch left every 4 rows
Perfect mindless knitting
...and here's to me starting the second sock soon, because this yarn is LOVELY (sadly I don't know what's the name of it because I grabbed it as a wound up cake at the store specialising in bobbin yarns, so all the info would've been on the bobbin label. I know that it's Italian 75% merino, 25% polyamide sock yarn, that's all. And that it's very very somft)
#shut up kevin#craftsy talks#knitting#ADHD knitting means no second socks are happening for months unless there's the second toe started and looking at you disapprovingly#but that's hard to do when you have a single skein and the thought of starting the second one in the opposite direction gives you shivers#so that's my life now I guess#it's a pity I can't really wear knit socks outside for sensory reasons#(doing reverse stockinette on the sole didn't help#I tried)#and I don't need that many pairs for at home... what would I do with them if they don't wear down and also are so warm

*slaps the top of my hand combs* tabarnak *utilizes the first aid kit for a few minutes*
*comes back and gingerly pats the handle of my hand combs* this bad boy can fit so much fleece on it
Look at the size of a nest of top i just pulled off !
#combing the dyed ryå right now#it is better to use less for sure but i was testing the limits earlier#so much waste tho. lots of second cuts for one thing but its just a short fleece anyway#which is ok bc it means while ill get at least one pair of socks out of this i will also have lots of combing waste to do other stuff with#hand combs#stabbed myself under my fingernail somehow xD

(I say this as a psychotic bipolar who has spent time in the psych ward) I'm baffled as to how grippy socks came to exclusively refer to the psych ward experience when they pass out the socks in every ward of the hospital. I have ninety-nine pairs (lying) and only one pair comes from a psychiatric hospitalization, the rest come from countless ER trips that often lead to multi-day admittances for various chronic physical ailments
#admittedly i do reap the rewards of this perception because i like wearing hospital socks in public and have people treat me cautiously#i.e. leave me the fuck alone and get out of my way#also I'm allergic to spandex and they are hypoallergenic#amazingly my one pair of psych ward socks is eight years old and has only one hole. mighty thin at this point tho#also they are bright yellow#i avoided going to my hometown hospital whenever i could because it sucked#but after my second town's hospital closed aside from the E.R. i always had to be transferred there#and thus was so during my breakdown#so i don't know if all of that hospital used bright yellow or just the psych ward#the socks I've gotten in Baltimore are all neutral colors. grey blue. tan. beige. somewhat navy#grippy socks

Thinking about how the official White Fang uniform is red, white, and black, but Yang is the one to help Blake end racism 🙃🙃🙃
#rwde#first i wanna know who actually makes these clothes. are they tailored for every fang or mass produced?#where are yall getting the resources? why do yall even need a uniform? wouldn't a logo bandana or smth suffice?#id love a pair of white fang socks ngl#but anyway gr8 to see that the color show is following up on its color symbolisms and foreshadowings#love that yang literally never gives a shit abt the plight of the faunus even when shes iN lOvE w one#and that she only knows adams name from a news reel but acts like she knows all his dirty laundry the one time they actually talk#and she doesnt even say smth like 'fuck you for taking my arm what the shit was that abt??'#like id personally like to know why some random jackass decided that i should lose 10 lbs in 10 seconds but whatever#you do you Yang#but straight up i dont think ruby even knows abt adams existence#blake mentions him by name at mt glenn but ruby was on watch and not part of the conversation#only yang saw the news abt adam being at beacon#and only blake sun and yang ever fight the guy#RUBY CANONICALLY DOES NOT KNOW ABOUT ADAM TAURUS#man it sure would be a bummer if in an au adam and ruby had met in mistral and hit it off and ruby accidentally helped deradicalize adam#and neither of them know exactly how closely entwined their mutual people are so when the others find out all hell breaks loose#god i wish i could work on ohar but my trilogy has already expanded into 5 installments#plus the essay im currently dying over#guys i need an intervention send help lol

Got out of my mom’s car today during a massive thunder storm. Tripped, fell and, in rapid succession: 1. broke my sunglasses 2. ripped my bag’s strap 3. launched my phone into a puddle deep enough to submerge it 4. scratched the SHIT out my leg open where my healed but tender tattoo is 5. landed in a silty, muddy puddle and got soaked we were about an hour from home (and it was longer due to the driving conditions) so here’s a friendly reminder to try and keep a care kit in your car for emergencies, both minor and beyond :) cause damn life comes at you fast
#i just kinda sat miserably and bled thinking wistfully#of what I’ve now dubbed Moby’s car kit bc he has everything from#a second pair of glasses to a warm hoodie and new socks to Neosporin/bandaids is kept in my car all the time for situations where your life#just randomly falls apart#my mom had stale tissues and that was it#doesnt help we were coming home from hospice for my uncle to say good bye to him#its been A Day and a Half#im so tired

Everywhere I look in my house I see something my mom gave me. Or something that belonged to her
#i was looking for a pair of socks a second ago and found a fluffy pair that matches my shorts#realized she gave them to me and then i started crying#in my living room i have her blankets and pillows on the couch and the armchair#and the telescope she got me by the front door. and her cane by her memorial#and the butterfly stickers she gave me that i never opened and put up#in my kitchen is a bag of snacks she brought over that i can hardly stand to eat because they were my last gift from her#and a can of soup she was planning to eat while she was here#and all the damn shopping bags she gave me. i cook in her pots and pans

You buy cheap yarn once bc it's a fucking baby sock and what's a baby gonna know about yarn quality but then you spend 8 hours picking it apart cuz the little fibers keep separating and causing little knots that halt your progress every other round
#gonna SCREAMMMMM#my first sock pair DID NOT do this#my second pair is obviously just trying to fucking kill me ig. I'm so mad at it#infusing this sock with so much rage and hatred.

i only have 2 more rows to knit on the second sock for clue 1 n then i wait till the 8th for the second clue! which means ill have a few days to draw while i wait!
#other#t talks#i really like the first clue!#kinda wish i had gone with the yellow green instead of the pastel off-white yarn i went with :/#but if the pattern stays this fun then ill definitely make a second pair with different color!#also omg the last pair of color work socks i did was back in january#so working on these now. i can see ow much i improved this year!#doing double sided color work every day since june has made my tension problems nonexistent
