Happiness is Handmade Pin by Knit Picks

I just had to share this amazing work crocheted by Owl_Victorika, found over at Instagram.  Seriously, go check out her IG.  It’s amazing. The rhino beetle was my favourite! No pattern, just inspo.

I’ve wanted an organizer for my needles and hooks for forever, finally got off my ass (or… on my ass? Sewing is mostly sitting after all haha) and made one yesterday. All fabrics are from my stash, the grayish green on the outside is a really nice upholstery fabric I was saving for an obi but I think this is a much better use for it.

I might’ve forgotten to make room for all the needles currently tied to WIP projects, but that’s okay since there will hardly be a time when all my needles are empty and in storage.

My hue shift afghan finally finished!!

I made a thing

I ordered this beautiful afghan kit from Knit Picks. It’s gonna take me a long time to knit all the squares, but I’m excited to see the finished product. If any of you are knitters, then it’s on sale for $25, which is a steal, considering yarn can be hella expensive.

PRESTO 4.5 HOUR AFGHAN

Jess from the blog Make & Do Crew shares this lovely crochet beginner pattern.  I really like the colours she chose!

are there any resources for neurodivergent knitters? I really want to do complex patterns (or any patterns tbh) and stuff, but holding all the numbers in my head is incredibly difficult, and every time I’ve tried to use counters it seems like they slip around and I like I’m not using them properly and worry about them sitting at the wrong stitches. if there’s any resources for people like me who struggle with numbers and reading the visual patterns I would love to hear about them.

Nothing like a good old fashioned Instant Gratification Project to start the year off right! Super bulky yarn, Q hook, rows of just hdcs, and 3 hours and I have a super warm scarf for the rest of the winter!

I can’t stop making dice bags!

This one is my own pattern, and made for my friend Sam in exchange for a drawing of my Pathfinder character!
