just another textile sideblog

I really only cross stitch and crochet but am - theoretically - trying to get into traditional embroidery and knitting. Mostly going to be reblogs from the tags, may occasionally be other textile crafts main: starksgrace

My summer project for myself is to make a collection of 16 of these embroidered thimble rings (called kaga yubinuki), these are my first 2 ^^

It's been a while since I shared some old fashioned yarnporn so here's me blending a rainbow batt. If enough people ask I'll try to make a post/video about how I did it.

They should come up with a doing crafts for hours that doesn't hurt your back

[sinensis26]

You all need to hear this:

1. You probably dont suck at your craft as much as you think you do, I bet a lot of people are amazed at what you can make, and

2. If you actually are the Literal Worst In The Whole Wide World at your craft... who the fuck cares? What are they gonna do, call the police on you? Keep making your shitty little things, youre the boss of you, fuck the haters.

Completed star shawl, made with Sultan Deluxe yarn from Hobbii. I really love how the beaded tassels really make the rest of the textured design of this shawl *pop*.

Well the post I made earlier apparently vanished, so take two: welcome back to the last Show and Tell Saturday of May! I'm on the hunt for quilting inspiration as I design some wall hangings for my bedroom. What's new in your world this week?

So things have been slow because baby brain, but here's the blanket I've been making for Bee

Not sure got to feel when the hobby book says this should only take an hour but it took me 5 hours.

[gallusrostromegalus]

1. Hobby books are often written by the same people who think you can caramelize onions in 5 minutes

2. Hobby books are even more often written by people who don't have or are actively neglecting their partners/full-time jobs/pets/children/household maintenance.

3. Hobby books are often written by people with ADHD, and an hour in ADHD hyperspace is like 2-7 hours for everyone else, including other ADHD people who are not currently in the zone.

4. Hobby books are written by people who, when told by an editor to add in how long it will take, just make shit up

5. If you're doing something for the first time, you're going to take way, way longer to do it than someone who's had years of practice. Maybe it does only take an hour IF YOU'VE BEEN DOING IT FOR TEN YEARS. Think about how long it took you to make idk your first excel spreadsheet vs how long it takes now

To actually answer your question: proud. You should feel proud, because you made something, AND you did so while learning a brand-new skill! Go you!!

May I ask what the Allegedly-One-Hour project was? Both because I like hearing about what my friends are doing and I want to see how wildly inaccurate the listed time scope is.

Unexpectedly slow going because I can't seem to find a rhythm, but I love how Bee's blanket is turning out
