Intro post~

Hi guys! My name is Mimi and im 19! Im currently in the process of developing crochet patterns for the plushies from LADS to try and fund my college journey🥲

(I'm not new to tumblr or the LADS fandom at all i kind of just lurk mysteriously...)

I struggle a lot from extreme social anxiety which made me not want to go to an in-person college yet. I've been taking online classes to earn college credits to transfer to a community college in hopes of getting into a prestigious university (i rlly want to go to columbia university!) Unfortunately I cannot find/keep a job because of how bad my anxiety is so I am struggling to earn money to pay for these courses. I've sold a lot of my belongings to save up for it but business is EXTREMELY slow.

ive started a gofundme for myself if anyone would like to help me:

https://gofund.me/c7106b63f

i didnt really know what images to use on the gofundme other than proof of the classes im taking since im not exactly comfortable with showing my face on the internet...😭😭 i hope that's understandable

but enough of my sob story... my interests incude LADS, the apothecary diaries, and tamon b side!

I love art in general, I'm not good at drawing but I've been crocheting for about 3 years now to the point where I can develop my own patterns! I'm almost done with my Lemonette pattern. I love lemonette even tho it was the bane of my existence.

ive made heartbreaker as well a few months ago and im planning on typing up the pattern for it real soon!

ive also started sewing last year and I was so obsessed with the yellow dress that mc wears in caleb's floating floraletter card that i just had to recreate it! Last year's dress really sucked lol... i wasnt sure how to make the top part of the dress properly at the time

But this year I finally found out a way to do it and reconstructed the dress.

i cant wait to add the other details to the dress! im in the process of embroidering the flowers at the bottom of the skirt so it looks exactly like the one in game.

but im using this blog to hopefully get a little help with my situation as well as post updates about my crafts. maybe even rant a bit lol...

i havent exactly played lads ever since valko has been cancelled and im rlly hoping he comes back. I think the global efforts are wonderful 🥹 and the fact that we started to donate money towards wolf conservations.... i hope that kind of awareness doesnt die down even after valko is back. But lets keep fighting!

I would absolutely appreciate any reblogs or sharing the link to my gofundme in any way. I hate to beg people and really wanted to earn money the right way but it's a bit of a desperate situation.

Thank you for checking out my post🥹 I plan on posting more updates for the Lemonette pattern soon!

i feel like creating a tiktok acc to try and advertise but god i SUCKKK at editing stuff (and talking to people)

ive asked my bsf to try and help me with things like that and luckily shes super kind and knows what shes doing🥹 she also made the pfp and banner for my shop wow shes so amazing...

im rlly hoping this goes well😭😭🙏🙏

hello everyone im back...

ive been testing the pattern a LOT and made some final tweaks (now i just have a bunch of lemonettes lying around siiigh...)

but good news! i have finally finished the pattern and uploaded it on both etsy and ravelry!!!

here is the etsy link

and here is the ravelry link

now i might start working on the heartbreaker plush... OR a crochet pattern for that little plushie valko was holding in one of this cards 🫣🫣

im also working on selling the lemonette plush itself for those who dont have time/dont know how to crochet! ive decided on selling 5 at a time just in case there'd ever be too much orders

thank u to everyone who checks it out🥹 i hope u have fun crocheting!

oh my... thank you for the support🥹 i was a bit scared to check back on here cuz i didnt expect any attention at all (ik im acting like 15 ppl is 197381 people but it rlly means a lot to me) To be honest I overthink a lot and immediately think of the worse possible situations, so coming back on here rlly made my day

im almost finished up with the lemonette crochet pattern! im contemplating between opening up an etsy shop or uploading the pattern on ravelry cuz i didnt expect etsy to have so many fees

im thinking of selling the plush itself as well but im a bit iffy about that since i live in the U.S. and id like people worldwide to be able to buy it... but im not exactly sure how it works🥲 im also the only one making them and they take quite a while to make so i'd only be able to sell like 5 at a time LOL

but heres a sneak peak of the pattern!

im pretty proud of the layout since this is my first time ever writing a crochet pattern! i made sure to include every material i used and their size, as well as crochet diagrams for some difficult parts (the leaf might be a bit difficult to understand)

ive tried to make it as beginner friendly as possible so i hope anyone who purchases it would be able to make their own lemonette!
