Note to self, if you're going to make something with tentacles, it's gonna take forever. On the plus side, finally found a use for that weird vintage yarn!

When I asked him what I should crochet for him, my son requested a car. I freehanded this one! 🧶

I found a bunch of this novelty yarn at a thrift store. It alternates between chenille, mesh ribbon yarn, and a short sort of eyelash yarn. What would y'all make with this? 🧶

I made a dress up doll for my friend's daughter! Base doll pattern is from here: chaicoffeecrochet.com/small-croche... I winged a bunch of the clothing and hair, very fun to make! 🧶

I have to watch this whole thing every time it pops up.

A friend purchased some beautiful baby alpaca wool on a whim, even though she's not a crafter. She brought to to me and asked if I could turn it into a scarf for her. It was only 220m of worsted yarn, so I chose a lacy pattern to get as much length out of it as possible. I think it turned out nice!🧶

I haven't had as much time for 🧶 crochet lately, but here's a headband I made for a friend. It doesn't have quite the right effect on me!

Day 23 Each day my back bends a little further And my shoulders slump with grief. Yet I know there is no place for me in this world  if I do not fight to claim it.  So I'll keep going, like a gnarled pine battered by wind, still straining, like all trees do to reach towards the sun.

Lately I don't know how to put my thoughts into words on here, but I think it might be bad form to just type AAAAAAAAAAA every night.

I finished my crochet a day flower blanket! One flower for every day of 2024.

The most blessed booster pack. #PTCGP

Dear Bluesky friends, don't get fake nails for your little kids. Mine loved them and was wearing a set when he poked himself in the eye. A month later, a lump on his eyelid still wasn't going away. Today we finally got him to surgery to remove it, and this is what was inside of his eyelid.

I modified the petunia pattern I've been using to make a little blue gentian! 🧶

November update for my crochet flower blanket! 🧶 This month was lots of types of narcissus, some more scarlet pimpernels, and some pomponette daisies. Just one month to go!

Show me a picture on your phone that has your energy that isn't a selfie.

Made a silly bookmark for my sister. Little things like this bring me so much joy. Made using this pattern 🧶: www.etsy.com/listing/7542...

To all the makers on my TL, every sketch, every poem, every little craft, every clever joke, seeing them put a little spark of joy in my heart. I love knowing you're out there, same as me, pulling together bits of the chaos and shaping them with care and determination in the ways only you can do.

Did an attempt at crocheting this flower. Next time I think the petals need to be a little fuller, but I think it turned out alright!

If you see this, post the cutest pokemon to you. #Pokémon Alolan Raichu, you look straight outta Card Captor Sakura and I love you.

I'm 2 eps into the 2nd season of Fleabag. This show is so funny and smart, but I missed that it was going to be a devastating dive into loneliness, the ways we cope with grief, and how we thwart self love. It perfectly captures the anguish of desperately needing, yet being unable to reach out.

Saw some of y'all playing Pokemon TCG Pocket and decided to give it a try. Will friend back! Friend ID: 3076016404909126

Me: What's the difference between a jonquil and a daffodil anyway? *20 minutes of googling later* Me:....yeah I still have no idea. Anyway, here are some jonquils!

youtube.com/watch?v=LMSm... Started watching this guy's videos about Gerard Way's singing technique, and I just love all the little nuances he's picking up on, how he's demonstrating them in his own voice too. It's making me enjoy MCR songs with a new layer of appreciation.

In Enunciate, WA, an unusual flower mutation occurred that combined a dahlia and a daffodil. They've nicknamed it the daffodahlia. Of course, I had to capture this little rarity in crochet form. 🧶

I got tickets to the 2025 My Chemical Romance tour! Immeasurably excited right now.

4 shows that you would recommend:

Since Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake came out today, I thought I'd show off the slimes I've crocheted for my son. 🧶The King Slime has a hidden pocket under the crown where the smaller slimes can amalgoomate.

I know the promosky tag and similar tags are probably supposed to be pronounced like sky, but in my head it sounds like when you wanna grab a brewski.

A few months back, I read about the firefly petunia. It's genetically modified to glow in the dark. I was inspired to recreate them in crochet. I made 8 of them in a circle on my crochet flower blanket so that a secret fairy circle would be revealed in the dark. 🧶

My 10 favorite #DragRace queens:

This is so delightful. I love the idea of bringing traffic to a place by leaving a birb of favor. turnto10.com/amp/news/cor...

I crocheted Gooey from Kirby's Dreamland 3 for my son, but I can't stop seeing that dad with the crazy tongue in Uzumaki.

It's important that you look through the gallery for this listing until you get to the top floor bathroom. Important. www.cbmaritimerealty.com/listing/2024...

This idea consumed my brain, so I decided to make a 🧵 First off, Cynthia Erivo as fresh dill:

When I'm in a sad or anxious mood, rather than watching something cheerful to distract myself, I prefer to watch something in the horror genre. It's like for a while, I can pretend the reason I feel afraid are these fictional evil monsters so far removed from me, rather than the uncertain future.

Oh no, I thought I had until today to finish Nye, but it meant November 11 UK time because of course it did. The first half was lovely, hope I'll get the chance to see the other half someday!

Has anyone else started to 🧶 a sweater and then realized you're making a pattern you've never done before and your yarn is unfroggable? I'm just sojourning on hoping that it's going to turn into a wearable sweater by the end and sweating.

My son is 6, and really loved the Mountain Meets the Moon series by @authorgracelin.bsky.social . Can any 📚💙 book lovers recommend something to read with him next? We've also read the Enchant Forest Chronicles by Patricia C. Wrede and some books by Bruce Coville.

This is the only blanket I've ever finished. I made it unnecessarily hard for myself. It's DK mercerized cotton yarn doubled up, and I bought skeins so I had to wind them into balls by hand. It's a ripple bobble stitch combo with a filet and shell border, and it's about the size of a lap blanket.
