had a good labor day!
shoot! did i mention these two are 95% biodegradable???
the blue denim is linen, the eyes are GLASS, and the rest (including the stuffing!) is cotton!
the bowties are the only things im not sure of the material (likely polyester) because i bought them when ac moore still existed (i still get kinda sad about that lmao)
still! very exciting stuff!
wow spent my whole sunday afternoon sewing! just whipped together a fleece carrying case with handles for this travel mirror i got & made of large scraps i had lying around. it was BARELY enough material 😭 no pressure or anything. i still need to add a zipper but feeling satisfied!
my neighbors across the street also dropped off some handmade doggy cookies!!! im so blessed. what a way to end the weekend!!
I'm still having a hard time keeping my edging neat, but feeling like a goofy scientist finding an old crochet blanket pattern and modding it into a small cardigan 🥴
sleeves and trim are knit tho!
WOOHOO I finished the prototype!! I've always wanted to make a lil house tissue box cover with the tissues as the "smoke" out of the chimney hehe at least that's the idea! I am also currently revamping my FREE PATTERNS section on my website and plan on adding this one if you're interested! Just don't ask me when cause..... I'm not sure hahahaha! Still working out the kinks!
Naknicromo day 20: favorite indie yarn shop - uh I don't actually really know very many sorry... But I'll say I got this alpaca-merino wool blend yarn from my local alpaca farm! It's soft and thick and just lovely to look at.
Day 12: favorite projects - tbh I'm not always confident I completely understand these prompts but I will share two projects I really loved a lot
The first is a pink bear scarf that I was superrrr happy about!!!! One, because it was my first major knitting project, and two, because it was just one of those things that turned out almost exactly as I was imagining in my head!
The second is a white deer doll I sent to my cousin in Korea when I learned she was having a daughter. While super cute and adorable, it was actually rather difficult to achieve the shapes I wanted (probably freehanded with a lot of retries). It is extremely unlikely I'd ever make it again 😂😂😂
Naknicromo day 25: feel good craft memories - lol omg so our xmas party of 2019 (whew before covid!), my friend Jaime and I apparently were the secret santas to this lovely pair of just-married friends, and we BOTH ended up making Baby Yodas for them!! Unplanned!!!! He needle-felted (I think that's what it's called), and I crocheted what was essentially my big amigurumi prototype!!! That was probably the best thing that's ever happened it always makes me smile so much thinking about it!!
Naknicromo Day 16: least favorite technique - uh probably weaving in the ends when changing colors or finishing a project. Very necessary but super annoying. I developed a little cheat to avoid it, but it only works for single crochet for a single color haha. Maybe one day I'll do a mini tutorial on it! Naknicromo Day 17: WIP Wed - finally finished all my yodas (will be for sale this weekend!) and the little bunny I posted about when I first started this challenge. The last thing I want to try to finish before the month is over is my yellow bunny scarf (not pictured but you'll see it soon!)
