day three baybee with 3 hours and 5 minutes
youll never guess, but it's, one inch of progress on my sweater
im nearing the end of this ball of mohair, so there's been some time lost to gently untangling lol
after hitting an inch I went back to some more sunburst squares. I need 24 for the purse, and have a little over half. if I can I want to use up all the white and pink because those are the last little bits of those skeins
this is not all I did today, I did a plain green one and two of the colored ones today
#craftember2024#knitting#crochet#yeah I really wasn't kidding about that inch#anyways#what I want to do is work on the sweater#(which is a cardigan I just like calling it a sweater)#but I have to make the project bag#so im making myself stop working after an inch and do some squares#because it's definitely faster#it's definitely useful#considering my cardigan doesn't fit my purse anymore#but#it has so many ends to weave in 😭#sunburst squares are my favorite squares but I hate weaving so much#also I want to use up either one of my current skeins on the body#and switch over to sleeves#because I want to finish those first for fit check purposes#cause wiggling your arms in a vest thing has much less effect than wiggling in sleeves

Jason Sudeikis as Ted Lasso Season 3 » Casual Sweaters/Jumpers
#Ted Lasso#Jason Sudeikis#Theodore Lasso#*mine: gif#tedlassoedit#sweater/jumper game#ugh you idiot with that face#stop staring at me swan#here's a gifset for the sweater/jumper lovers out there and sorry this is a long post. I just couldn't make up my mind on some of these#I spent way too much time overanalyzing the casual sweaters/jumpers. I was trying to only show each one once but then just gave up#deep dived research on the Todd Snyder site that's the kind of overanalyzing that happened#there is a lot of lighting messing with colors and for sure there are some repeats in this but whatever#I had this idea way back when we saw the variety of color sweaters/jumpers for S3#but after the end of S3 I lost a lot of feelings for this show#my motivation for giffing this show is not so strong anymore but there is a part of me that still wants to maybe try a layout set#I'm thinking of doing all 3 seasons and just an overall sweater/jumper encompassing gifset. both the work and casual together#kind of meh on how some of these turned out ¯\_(ツ)_/¯#it might be the added switch to the new editor and that all of these have been turned into gifv nonsense#also couldn't get the caption font to do what I wanted in html or at least it looked alright in drafts but not in preview#PS: thank you talldecafcappuccino for reading/helping with my color debate/same vs not same sweater/jumper nonsense

finally finished some full body art of vesper and her three main outfit variations
#and by outfits I mean 3 nearly identical variations of mostly the same items#fhr#sidestep#fallen hero#mayhaps I should have finished this BEFORE I sent off for a comm#OC vesper#digital art#I need to draw her in more outfits as I practice more but this is what I picture as core rn#I do wanna do one of a skinsuit peeled down and worn as just pants with the top tied around the waist like a boiler suit#with a sweater or something on top#like I'd picture it's something she may wear at her base working on armor stuff or plans#that's a bit of my own fashion taste creeping in#tho to be fair her whole fashion is pretty adjacent to what I like to wear just like a bit of a dif focus#since it's what I'm familiar with#like I lean a lot into streetwear/techwear + more put together stuff but for her I wanted to pull it more to athletic adjacent streetwear#anyway fashion is fun

🫖🐭☁️🍚
#so i did meet my old friend from years ago yesterday. i was sooooo nervous omgggg. and i was waiting outside the café we agreed on#and then saw them walk in and i was like omgggg. the anxiety... but then i gathered courage and walked towards it and thry saw me thru the#window and came out and immediately hugged me. then they were like 'omg i've been so nervous. even more than before like a date!!'#so that made me relax a bit. i feel like i dont really fully estimate what i mean to them. maybe they care about me as well haha !!#then we just got our stuff and i chose a smoothie and was ready to pay but they just got it with their stuff (they work at this chain so#they got a discount). i feel so so bad & anxious when someone else pays for me. like i feel like a burden#but i asked twice if i should send them money for it and they were like no that's fine. so i had to tell myself to just shut up abt it 🥲#bc if u keep asking u make it into a thing and make them uncomfortable etc. so i really appreciated that and it was nice even if i felt bad#but yeah then we just sat down and talked. and it was so much easier to talk to them than i had been worried abt#like it flew nicely and yeah.. i feel like i forgot a lot abt them. like they're good at conversating. so they kept it going & even if i was#awkward it was fine for them. i did however get swept up in my own anxiety so as they asked me questions i answered#but then was too whirlwindy so i didnt really ask as much back and there were things i wanted to ask but didnt :')))#then they had cards and a card game with them. so we played for a bit too. and it was a lot of fun!!! (i was anxious and kinda slow lmao#bc when i dont know smth or the rules etc already my brain stops working so yeah.. even if it was simple games i was like um um what do i do#felt stupid but yeah again they didnt do anyhing to contribute to me feeling stupid but i still felt slow >.<#but i still thought that was so much fun. i wanna do more of that T-T like yeah...that was nice#then we took a lil longer walk to a bus stop before hastily said goodbye bc the busses came T-T#it was really really really nice tho. i have missed them a lot#and i didnt .. think we would ever see eachother again. i really didnt think this could happen#im so glad i somehow got brave enough to message them and im so so glad they wanted to see me too#i cant help but wish i could go back to when we were younger#and we spent every day in school together and messaged during the days and evenings and spent sm time together#when we went into the city like several times a week and took long walks. ahh... well. im glad we got to have those moments#& idk what will happen now. i really really want to see them again. even if we'll never be that close friends again i'd *wish* that we could#still be in touch. but im so bad at replying which doesnt go over great with them.. i'll try my best to reply quicker to them#*if* they message me. sadly i cant erase my avpd but i'll try my best to reply faster if and when they message)#they also complimented my sweater i was wearing (which is my fav sweater) !!!! and yeah.. they looked so cool. which they always have#and i kept thinking abt how nice their eye makeup was (i was too shy to compliment it tho bc im really bad at like 'nice' affectionate and#anything feeling related. like im so bad... so i couldnt say anything </3)#ugh it was just so nice to sit and talk with them. im so glad i went despite my fears. bc this was so good and nice :')))

ive got this girl whos been sleeping with her hoodie and working out in it for like.. 3 nights now and she plans on giving it to me for the "scent". Which TO ME reads as obviously flirting or horny or lewd, and it started on team fortress 2, like.. we were talking the sweater came up like the delphine bathwater being sold and i said id buy every sweater she's got and she told me don't worry about it, it 's free for me
and goes on to say tonight anytime i need to re-up the smell i can just come get another sweater.. and like.??.?? shes in love with me maybe right?? im certainly head over heels right now.
she also called me good girl- 🥺💜🫠
#t4t lesbians#i am so helplessly into her#i want to learn about her life and what she likes and the way she prefers to hold handsss...#ugh.. also uhm maybe give her head#having a crush is weird#i keep saying its just a meme it doesnt mean anything and she said it back and in a tone that was just-- hdjjabsbe what do i dooooo#i want to lick her boots-#/)//3//(\ she takes such pride in them i can help clean and kiss them and be so obedient#okay bedtime now..#rambles#also if it wasnt clear i was joking about buying the sweater i was trying to flirt?? and maybe it worked but this DID start from joking

bro what the fuck are they doing with my package
#fun story#i ordered 3 things from hot topic. they shipped but never arrived so a couple weeks later i messaged them abt it#and went back and forth with them for a while bc their customer service agents cant read apparently#before being told i had to call bc one of the things i ordered went out of stock and i was replacing it w smth more expensive#so i call and im on the phone for like a fucking hour missing the 15 minute window i have to eat between jobs#and being on the phone at work for a while lmao#i finally get it done and the guy fucking forgets my apartment number in the shipping address. it's in the billing address tho??#so i email them AGAIN and im like yo your man forgot my apartment number. they cancel that order and place another#the effect this has is that the $14 payment for the more expensive item is cancelled as well. bc again they don't read#so im like sick i will effectively get these $60 pants for $15 (im very good at sales and also manipulating customer service)#but apparently when they replaced the order they put ny apartment number not in the address‚ but as part of my name?????#so i think its fucking up usps. but it came in 2 packages and 1 has arrived so i still have hope. but thats not the end#yesterday guess who fuckin calls me. its hot topic. my original order arrived to the fuckin store in my local mall#and theyre like i think we fucked up bc we just found this package but it says you picked up your order already. do u want it#and i was like yes? not really sure what package to be expecting and its my ORIGINAL FUCKING ORDER#so once this package arrives i will have gotten 2 of the same shirt‚ 2 kiki sign things‚ a sweater‚ and a pair of pants for $40#and i figure i can return one of the shirts and one of the signs that i have duplicates of for store credit of their full price#so anyway yeah. thats been the past 3 weeks for me.

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

mmmmm I really think this sweater needs to be saddle shoulder and set-in sleeve...
#i tried to talk myself into drop shoulder just for ease of construction but the heart wants what the heart wants#and the MOMENT i gave into myself re: set-in sleeves#(which the sweater I'm working on now also has. so it's not like I'd be trying to design a sweater with a feature I've never knit)#my dumbass personal Dark Kermit goes ''arrright let's do saddle shoulders too''

turns out i am the type of hallmark FMC who's up for a massive promotion at work and is bummed bc she doesn't have someone to share it with, which sends her into a spiral of not being married yet 🙃 not what i wanted to find out about myself today
#i'm not texting friends/fam because it's not official yet#and it might not even happen because corporate doesn't like my division#last year they didn't promote any women so there's also that#but i might be creating an entirely new role and it'd be insanely cool and very girlboss of me#live in a small beach town? check#narrowly missed an engagement a few years back and devoted to work ever since? check#core personality traits are sweaters and tea and books? check#but like where is bob floyd to tell me he's proud of me#AND I DON'T EVEN WANT TO BE MARRIED WHAT IS THE POINT OF THERAPY IF I HAVEN'T INTERNALIZED THAT YET#every now and then it pops up and i'm like...wait DO i want kids and a husband??? and i don't#but boy howdy what a ride#sana things

thank god i finally fucking did a tension swatch cause this sweater would've ended up wayyyy too small
#i think it would have still fit but i'd probably have run out of yarn#i got one of those caron pounds and bigger needles i'll do another swatch today see if that'll work#and depending on how much this pattern uses i'd like to make a second out of a big cake i have#maybe cropped???#i think i'll need close to 400g for the size i want and the cake is 300g and the one i got with the needles is 500 something g so test run#patterns are so fucking expensive but i'm not at a place in knitting where i can just go for it like i can in crochet#anyway the cake is what i used for the tension swatch i'm interested to try it again but i rlly wanna just get started so i'll just swatch#the new yarn & needles today#and then go from there#it's gonna be like a loose open knit pull over situation#cause i loveeee the way they look i've been wanting to make one for awhile#but it's so intimidating cause my last sweater i made some pretty significant mistakes lmso#and i'm actually gonna have to frog that one and start over#but that's very much a dead of winter sweater#i want a summer sweater rn#anyway#oh yeah and i finished the stuffie hammock!!!!!!#ended up crocheting the ties#gonna get it spouse's help to hang it up later i hope it works#it turned out sooooo cute#i love the fabric + yarn combo#kinda worked out that i ran out of ribbon

Update on my WIPs, shawl 10 is only 7 rows from bind off, but what very long rows they are. Really it’s two more pattern rows and then a couple in just plain reverse stockinette but I’m not quite sure about the reverse stockinette at the end, I’m going to have a look at some of the other projects and see If I want to change that. Sweater 7 is also coming along well, I’m almost half way through the body. I need some joy rn so I’m thinking about winding the yarn I need for my next “pay attention” project. I know I want to do a Stephen West shawl, but I’m not sure between Fantastitch or Aurora Cabin. I have enough yarn to probably do both so I really shouldn’t stress about it, I’m just annoyed that I have 6 different colours and Fantastitch calls for 7 and Aurora Cabin calls for 5.
#project: shawl 10#project: sweater 7#wip#knitting#knitblr#unfortunately my back is flaring up AND i have a doctors appointment tomorrow. i just want to sleep for a week :(#i would be less annoyed choosing what pattern for the colour work shawl if I liked asymmetrical shawls#but i really. really do not like them. it's very sad for me.#post typing this i found ANOTHER west knits shawl that i fits what i'm looking for but it's another 7 colour one#once again i probably have plenty of yarn. I have 200 grams of 3 colours and 100 grams of the other three. but dang is this hard to decide.

Having knitting as a hobby and living in a pretty warm country is so painful sometimes
#i like knitting sweaters and socks but they're only properly wearable for like. one and a half months of the year#so if i want to wear what i make i have to properly learn lace techniques and how to draft my own button ups#I'm currently making a button up that i drafted myself in this mesh type lace stitch but i haven't found any patterns#that are more masc and aren't too warm#and idk how good this is gonna look bc even though i did do a gauge swatch and tried to write it down i haven't#worked with lace like this on a big project so let's see how it turns out#🐌

#so I stayed late after work and completely reorganised the back room#my boss was like ‘you can just go through one box at a time and write down everything in it on a piece of paper!’#but like. the boxes were full of a whole bunch of different sweaters in a whole bunch of different colours#and nothing was folded. and we didn’t know what sizes we had#and we DON’T HAVE A FUCKING INVENTORY and it is driving me absolutely positively CRACKERS#so I put on some loud music and organised all the sweaters in the back room by brand style and colour#i basically went autism beast all over that damn back room#and I even got the down jackets out because they’re not on the stupid floor yet#because the back room was so full of shit before I got my little autistic paws all over it that we couldn’t even fucken MOVE in there#so now we can. and I hope my manager is happy with my work.#our boss could probably care less but she doesn’t realise how much she doesn’t deserve me#my coworker deserves me tho. she deserves the world. she should get everything she wants#anyways I had to rant about it.#I’ve been overwhelmed by the amount of shit in the back room for three days straight and I said FUCK that#and this was after a fucken weird day where there was this lady complaining about our pint glasses costing $25#and I think she was trying to make me give her a deal on something because#she kept going back to the $$$$ shit and getting outraged at the prices#and after a few rounds of that she said jokingly ‘i might start spitting at you in a moment’#and like. I know she was joking. but that pissed me the fuck off. do not joke that you’re gonna spit at me#if you do that you don’t get to buy anything you fucking asshole you get security called on you#anyways today was fucken bonkers how was your day?

I do think the scariest thing about writing an original novel is that it requires an immense amount of self trust. I have a decent chunk of my novel written already, but i’m not entirely sure how to string everything together. my present narrative illuminates and calls forth the past but when? and how much is revealed each time? and what do I hold back and why? I have an idea, of course, a timeline I want to adhere to, but there are still so many unknown factors. it’s very much an “I’ll figure it out when I get there” situation. and this is where the self trust comes in. I have to trust that if I continue plodding forward, all will be revealed. I have to trust that I can work with a shitty first draft, that my second draft will be better and my third draft will be even better than that. I have to trust that I can tell this story the way I want to tell it and I have to trust that this story is worth being told. I have to trust that I can do this. yikes!!!
#and I do! I do! but pushing forward blindly is not my strong suit and yet it’s exactly what the situation calls for!#I have to keep going and know that I can fix/rewrite/cut/move any scene that doesn’t work.#I feel like this process is me holding one end of a string that disappears into deep dark woods. I know the string#leads to my grandmother’s cottage but I also know there could be wolves along the way. I have my knife and I can protect myself#but what if I have to let go of the string? what if I step in quicksand? how will I get to the cottage then?#and of course the answer is: I’ll deal with any obstacles when I get to them. like I’ve dealt with things before#because I want to get to the cottage. it’s nice and warm there and she knit my dream sweater. it’s waiting for me to arrive.#but damn the woods are dark and deep and the string feels flimsy and my hands are sweaty. one foot in front of the other. I trust myself#just found out knitted is the proper past tense which I should have known but did not. wow even this post has something to teach me….
