The Tranimals are finally here!

[Vid ID: Several tiny crocheted animals being removed one by one from a purple pouch, placed center screen, and then pushed to the side into a growing pile. There are turtles, snails, cats, whales, mice, octopi, a frog, a chicken, and a snake. They're all made with the same bright blue, pink, and white cotton yarn. Some of them have black beads for eyes. Background music is "It's Showtime!" from Undertale, and matching animal sounds accompanies each one as it's placed on the desk. /end ID]

The pouch has been emptied, the tranimals unleashed. If you're located in the US or Canada, you can get your very own on my Artisans Cooperative storefront. Edit: (Can't sell to the US right now due to Politics™.) Elsewhere, and you can pick them up over on Ko-Fi.

Support a disabled queer crafter so I can continue to craft every day!

Because Etsy is a cesspit of AI and dropshipped bullshit now... can you guys drop me links to stores of independent artists?

They can make clothes and accessories, they can sell prints or stickers or pins, they can make tiny figurines (I LOVE tiny figurines), they can make dice, they can make something I haven't thought of, their store can even be on Etsy itself, you JUST have to be sure they're a real person who actually makes their own art.

Artists please self-promote. Non-artists please shove any stores you like at me, brag about your artists friends, and/or reblog so the artists will see this. I want you to destroy my activity page.

Give us recommendations for artists I can get little presents for my wife from. Please. I legitimately want as many artists in the pool as possible.

Awww thanks for tagging!

For a marketplace option if you like to browse artisans, I can recommend Artisans Cooperative, they're checking a lot more than Etsy to make sure everything is artisan made, and it's a cooperative so the whole thing is actually owned by many of the artists on it. Including myself!

Here's one of my favorite jeweler: https://www.cutiejaurelie.ca Another jeweler I love that is getting bigger and I love that for them: https://bisoulovely.com/ I love their asian and anime trinkets: https://oppabo.co/ One of my good old friends selling anime merch: https://linktr.ee/carekoart Handmade shoes that I adore, plus I met the owner at the Pride Artisans Market last year and she's lovely: https://anamariadessin.ca/fr

If someone were to buy 60€ worth of things from my shop (mostly soft things like crocheted plushies and some bags, and also, A Book, hence the comic tag) then I could get two very nice backpack carriers for my cats and take them around the city during this year's nice weather times. 👉👈

When I see the prices people pay for wool yarn or wool yarn blends with cashmere or silk or whatever it really makes me like "oh wow, spinning truly is a cost saving hobby compared to other fiber arts huh" cuz wdym you paid $50+ for just a few ounces of yarn????

I paid $80 for a 6 pound raw fleece that ended up still being a bit over 4 pounds after cleaning it. That means I will have over 4 pounds of yarn!!! That's around 64 ounces, or 1,814 grams (rounding down)!! for $80!!!!

Granted, the trade off is that I will spend dozens of hours combing and spinning it lol, BUT THAT PART IS ALSO FUN HOBBY TIME!!! DOUBLE FUN HOBBY TIME!!

[livingadagio]

Yessssss, y'all get it lol

I carved a tiny heart then glued it back together when I cracked it in the process.

I'm realizing that I tend to scramble around making things in ways I'm not used to when I'm entering a depressive episode. Which is... useful for trying new things, I guess..? A therapist would be better, though. 😅

Third shawl of the year! (I've posted about finishing this shawl before, this is just the finished object post so I can search for just photos of my finished objects.)

This is Hayley Tsang Heather's Peony – Pfingstrose Shawl. I made this shawl out of Fyberspates Gleem Lace in the colorway 733 Everglade, and used 896 6/0 Miyuki Rocailles in the color: transparent silver-lined dark gold (RR-4).

The Ravelry project page is here.

Took just shy of two months, but my dragon in goldwork and silk is done :)

Gotta paste the back and then get it framed still. But pretty happy with the stitching.

Chaosfay's Commissions

If you would like to have something handmade and one-of-a-kind, check out my quilts. As small as 1.5x1.5 inches and as large as queen size.

They are open for my monthly supporters, and will remain so for thr next four weeks or when all three slots are taken. I will open them again in either September or October, and they will be available for everyone else. My member tiers start at $2/month, and you will receive automatic discounts on all shop listings and commissions.

If I reach my goal of $200 by April 14th, I'll give away a commission, meaning a free custom-made thing made by me.

April is Autism Acceptance Month. As an autistic small business owner, your support means a lot. My mini gold infinity pins are on sale this month as a symbol of autism and acceptance. Supporting autistic people includes choosing autistic run businesses and communities like Made by Autistics Marketplace & Community (on FB), where support goes directly to us.

[unwell-radio-transmissions]

was plan make new tote bag 4 aac go on wheelchair. Thought 'would be cool if design like computer keyboard' because fun silly have Radio's words in. Next thought 'if be computer keyboard could use as low tech AAC. Should then probably have yes/no symbols.' Then plan got out of control and now want 2 embroidery low tech AAC board for fashion (silly) and practical use.

not will rush make, just enough have project work on.

[unwell-radio-transmissions]

[ID: canvas bag with low tech AAC symbols and words embroidered on. Examples include feelings, 'lift' and 'toilet'. On reverse side is embroidered computer keyboard, yes/no symbols and words 'please', 'thank you' and 'sorry.' /end ID]

3 half months to finish, very very happy with result. Bag good and sturdy. Take bit of figuring out to make. Strap piece wrap all way around bag so more support for heavy AAC. Strap long enough for wear cross body.

full list of symbols & words: - happy, sad, tired, surprised or anxious, angry or frustrated, overwhelmed. - safe, unsafe. - too loud, too bright, too many people, too many choices. - lift, toilet. - love, stop - i need, to lie down, help, space, to leave, company. - I don't understand, please explain what's happening.

these are for communicate with strangers who not know sign or when body brain too tired for effective signing and as alternative to electronic AAC.
