i found out today that my friend is homeless and i'm heartbroken. if you're at all able to donate to his gfm he could use the help. thanks everyone

I saw a pattern for a knitted blouse made with 2mm needles and when I showed my mom she asked how long was it going to take and my honest reply: "I'll probably gonna be buried with it, because it's how long it's gonna take".

People who make fun of fiber arts like knitting or crochet, or embroidery don't understand the positive impact they make for mental health. My knitting needles and crochet hooks feel like friends who give me pretty things after I let all my pain out.

I get weirdly proud when people block hashtags that are triggering and upsetting them. Yeah baby, protect your peace 💗

I am trying the extremely ambitious task of: ending the year without WIPS, and it would be a lot easier if I didn't need to knit almost 1 meter to finish a coat I'm making.

And a huge thank you to anyone that sent love and good energies. I felt them! 🫂

The biopsy results were negative. I apologize for being dramatic is just that it was the second time in 6 months a doctor asked to do further tests just to be sure it is not cancer and my grandma and grandad died of cancer so I got scared. But I'm ok, at least physically.

I'm away because I'm waiting on the biopsy results. And everything is piling up. Just wanted to say you all are beautiful, smart and awesome 💞

as a Man i feel pretty strongly that if your wife is carrying the burden of household management you don't get to kvetch about the work she in that managerial role assigns you

I really need to stop saying things can't get worse. The universe is accepting the challenge.

Today my "research" skills avoid 4 AI searches and it felt good.

Not to brag, but Brazil is getting great covers:

Crochet made me arrogant, I look at everything now (crochet) and think: I can do that

Am I tripping or it would be quite helpful to tag finished fics with "finished fic" just in case someone is looking for a fic that they forgot to bookmark, but they know it's already finished?

Fanfic writers shouldn't have to post: be kind. You should be kind because you are reading stories for free. We are all important and our feelings matter, but that doesn't give us a free pass to harass people that are making art for free. Fanfic writers are amazing and mean people should shut up

Thank you to all of you that sent kind messages!!!! It means the world!!!!

TW: depression, eating disorders. I doubt anyone here missed me. But I'm having some issues and I got some weight and it triggered a my eating disorder because I don't weigh myself but some clothes got tight. And I'm dealing with these issues but I don't want to burden anyone here.

If no-one else is drawing or writing that weird shit who else is going to do it?!?!?! 😭💔 #artsky #art

Who am I kidding, I used paint. Photoshop was too advanced for me.

I tried to crochet with black yarn at night. It was a humbling experience.

Tell me if I'm tripping, but picture this: a granny square vest, but each square has a different cat.

For someone older than google, I sure took my time learning that people ship Ash and Misty.

Nothing screams procrastination like postponing something for days and finishing in less than an hour.

I think I'm gonna add "crochet charts" to languages I am fluent on my CV, because apparently they aren't as easy to read as I had thought they were.

Does anyone here know if France has an online archive for old magazines?

When you find the perfect knitted blouse, but doesn't find a recipe/pattern

That's for real?

The level of peace I get when I finish cleaning the house and then I take a shower and wash my hair.

Buy my patterns, then join our KAL! If you can do a knit, you can do a short row! 🧶

I know I'm finally learning to not be a control freak when a fic author said they would post at Tuesdays and it's been 2 weeks and they haven't posted and I found strength to not ask for an update. (However I still open the fic every day)

I don't understand the AI appeal because, to me, a huge factor into asking questions is doing the research to get the answer. The research is the reward, and sometimes it takes you to unexpected routes, and that's the best.

Me to my moots and all the people against fascists cunts😘

Congratulations people of the internet, you never fail to be utterly embarrassing and pathetic.

My book shelf broke beyond repair. My favorite plate broke. I bought yarn that was going to be discontinued. I know I'm in the middle of the stash bust journey, but I craved the SEROTONIN.

My mom broke my favorite plate. It was an accident. But it hurts. I had it since I was a kid, and it is unsalvageable.

The lady on TV just asked what was the taste of the 🥝 pie. Ma'am... kiwi.
