Now the lid
I wasn't sure about the blue but I actually love it. This will be a sunset basket to replace my old one
Gotta add attachments and take sunlight pics so it'll be a nice way to end my time off work
Making good progress on my EPP! I guess I’ll have to decide on how to bind this baby at some point soon. Do you guys have any recommendations on how to finish this quilt in a traditional way? I’m not sure about using bias binding.
ultimate portability for a kumihimo project: half-empty roll of paper towels (kept from unraveling by being wrapped in string) inside a big souvenir cup. like I'm definitely going to be printing something to mimic this setup in a prettier way but this works
the president could neverrrrrr

Finally finished the sweater. Once it got going it was a lot of fun. Not my style but I still enjoyed it. Now it's off to its owner!
WIP Wed: enter my sock maze boy
Not actually a maze although I might try charting a sock maze at some point I'm sure it could work. Adding that idea to the infinite project backburner.
Went outside for good lighting so the colors are accurate for once. I continue to be a huge fan of the yarn it is so pretty. Also tried a shadow wrap heel for the first time, which is basically a far superior short row heel and I will never be doing a short row heel again.
Gonna knit the leg until I reach 80 or so grams of the MC or it feels long enough and then knit the cuff. Thinking I can get two whole pairs of sock out of the MC at approximately 25 grams a sock. Hopefully!
Another two fabric quilt on the go. This one may end up being for me because I love both of these fabrics. I ended up buying about six or so meters each of them with no plans because I like them so much.
I’m gonna do nine patches and bordered squares and put them on point.
I saw a photo of something similar in creams and reds a long time ago and took a screen shot of it, and saw it while I was scrolling through my ‘Quilts to Make’ file. Decided to pull these out and give it a go.
No idea what size it’ll end up, but if I stick to 6x7 blocks with a border it should end up about 64”x72” I think. Which is a nice throw size to cuddle on the couch with.
Of course…
If I really like it after I lay it out, I may have to make more blocks and make it big enough for my bed.
Oooh that’s pretty.
Not enough to make bigger, I think more contrast between the two fabrics would look even better, but this will make a lovely couch quilt!
She ended up 70”x85”, which is a pretty nice twin if a bit short, but it would also layout on a queen with little overhang if someone was looking for a display kind of quilt.
I have a dark teal cotton in mind for backing and Robin’s Egg blue for the quilting thread, which is basically the same colour as the light blue fabric.
Haven’t decided on whether to use the space fabric for the binding or the backing fabric for binding. Either would work.
Had to continue the space theme with the quilting. Pattern is called Interstellar and I did use Robin’s Egg thread on the top and a medium light grey on the back so you could see the stars and swirls on the backing.
I did end up using the constellation fabric for the binding and love the way it looks against the border.
I know I said I was thinking teal for the back, but this blue and black crosshatched print I found in my stash looked nice. I think it was actually what I was originally going to use with the constellation fabric LOL I had enough to back it and just went with it.
Scriptorium cat collection in now in my shop!!! With criossanna (trad Irish belts), bookmarks, and patches inspired by the medieval Irish poem Pangur Bán and the inky cat paws left on medieval manuscripts. The pattern using the pick up weaving method is also available!
I've opened a shop. Come take a look!

I missed my Wednesday post, but this time for a good reason! 🥰 I’m preparing something very special to go along with the release of my next pattern! 😊 It’s taking up all my free time right now, and it’s so exciting! I can’t wait to show it to you soon! 😍
Hugs, Olka 💛💙

Crustacean Cocktail Party, interlocking crochet (patterns)
made a fun little mug and cup set for when i paint
The details of my new short sleeve cardigan. It just turned out so nice! From the pooling of the yarn to the fit, from the combo of stitches to the way the buttons match...
I’m kinda surprised that nalbinding isn’t as popular as crochet and knitting tbh because it has an even lower barrier of entry tools wise and unlike crochet and knitting it makes fabric that you can cut.
I guess it’s because it’s slower or something.
Nalbinding aka needle binding is when you use yarn and a big sewing needle to make fabric btw
It also has a lot of different kinds of stitches you can do that make different densities of fabric.
Some people even make rugs.
I feel like part of it might be casual people are generally aware of the existence of crochet and knitting, even if they don’t know very much about either, but have never heard of nalbinding
Yeah I hadn’t heard of it until recently and I ordered a big bone needle for myself to try it out and that should be arriving soon.
I was surprised that I’d never heard of it though. It’s older than knitting and crocheting and even though it’s been done all over the world it’s super relevant to Nordic culture and my grandmother and I are both into keeping in touch with our roots a bit so I’m surprised I’ve never heard of it.
It seems like the sort of thing that would be popular even if not as popular as crocheting and knitting, considering the low barrier of entry.
You also don’t need a bunch of different sized needles for nalbinding or whatever. The size of the stitch is controlled either completely freehand or by pulling it against one of your fingers. Most people who have a lot of nalbinding needles seem to either have tried out wood, bone, and metal ones to see which kind they liked or they enjoy carving wood or bone and like making their own needles as an extra hobby.
It’s also a lot easier to freehand and adjust as you go than crochet or knitting and you mostly go by inches instead of rows and number of stitches so a large number of accessories like stitch markers or whatever isn’t really necessary.
Maybe the lack of accessories also makes it unpopular idk. People do like collecting things in their nests.
I've been wanting to do so, I cannot find anyone who can teach me, and any books I can find on it are Ass in the Visual Learning department. Otherwise I'd be making the hell outta some nalbinded fabric
I found this channel by a nice man who makes up close tutorials
I create videos on YouTube to learn people how to needlebind using two fingers and your thumb. Needlebinding helps people to relax, relieve
I thought this would be kind of a niche post to make but I was quickly reminded that I’m on tumblr, the website full of gay people with one billion hobbies.
So my bone needle actually came this evening (yay!) and I’ve started trying this for real. It clicks in my brain way easier than crochet does. I’ve gotta work up the muscle memory but I think I can do this.
The downside as a beginner is that undoing mistakes is more time consuming than with knitting or crochet. You’ve gotta like sew your mistakes out backwards. Disadvantages of making a really sturdy fabric I guess.
I like the feel of this bone needle though and don’t think I’ll be trying the wooden or metal ones.
Also I think I’m gonna have to get good at doing Russian joining if I decide to get good at nalbinding because I don’t have wool yarn and the ends won’t felt together if it’s not at least 50% wool. A small price to pay for using big bone needle though.
Anyways curse of new fiber craft be upon ye.
everybody here's my tiny crochet coelacanth <3

Whiaaaaaaaooohhhhh!!! So tiny!! Ive tried the micro crochet stuff but i have a real hard time gripping the work at that scale
