Hey, so if you’re a Critical Role fan & a fiber artist, especially if you have ADHD, and would like a project to work on while watching episodes, I have a fun proposal for you!
More than likely you’re familiar with the concept of Temperature Blankets by now. Well, someone in a crochet group mentioned making a Super Bowl “temperature” scarf, where she pre planned certain stitches and color changes depending on certain things that might happen during the Super Bowl, so she wouldn’t get bored.
My idea is designating your preferred colors and stitch changes based on possibilities of things that might happen during a Critical Role stream!
The list is long, so I’ll put it under a cut.

[if you’d like to suggest additions, I’m open! If you make one, and want to post progress online, tag me! If you post on IG, tag me as (at)SparrowfeatherCrafts. These are meant to keep working on each Thursday, or if you’re binge watching, keep working on it as long as you like! You can choose color schemes inspired by characters, or whatever inspires you. Doesn’t have to be a blanket, either. I saw people making Temperature Snakes, and I’m sure it would be fun to see how long a snake, or scarf, or whatever you want to make you can achieve. Enjoy! I’m asking you to open your heart to chaos 💚 ]

It’s time for a sneak peek of March’s yarns! Our theme for this month is Metropolis.
A city rises between the desert and turquoise seas; the faded chalk colors of stucco create channels for the busy passerby.
Important to remember: Color Vibes are BACK! The option to swap your color vibe is only open between February 15-28 for the March 2022 crates.

These beautiful colorways appear on the classic Knitologie Worsted, a 100% Superwash Merino worsted weight yarn that's made in Peru exclusively for KnitCrate.

Rosy pinks appear, highlighting the bottoms of fluffy clouds as the sun sinks below the horizon line, another day ended. Cheer from the balcony of a high rise as you watch it unfold in this glorious gradient set.
