Wait are we getting a sherlock episode tonight or do we have to wait????

Still no confirmation of anything ever, but the fact that someone published an article about the fan reactions within an hour of Apple Tree Yard airing probably means that they don’t want us to let go of this just yet.

Cries because I feel this on a spiritual level. Dont want to get my hopes up anymore... Ive lost all hope

Oh, by no means have I lost hope, but tons of bloggers got put in a bad place for expecting too much from something that wasn’t explicitly Sherlock. We weren’t thinking critically or objectively enough at the time. I’ve since learned from that and I’m here saying “its probably nothing but I’ll keep my options open” as an amendment to that (which is why I reblogged the post, but have debunked the ask I got about it), but I’m trying to avoid those people who will just take this information and run - because ultimately it’s me who be blamed for not discouraging them from hoping so much. That’s what I want avoid.

What kind of yarn do you use??? It’s beautiful!!

I use all sorts of yarn but at that show it was primarily acrylic for the hats, and wool blends for the scarves and headbands etc. 

Thank you!!

Omg that entire leaked trailer video has been blocked by the BBC. Do you know of any other place we can see it?? -faiinnntss-

I heard it’s on Vimeo but I’m not sure. I have it downloaded, just in case :-)

Hi!! What pumpkin pattern did you use for the smaller pumpkin??? 😃😃

Hi! I didn’t actually use a specific pattern... I looked around at some pumpkin patterns, and realized a lot of them were just instructions on knitting a ball and then squishing it and tying extra yarn around it to get the bulges. I did something a little different, but here is a good video with the basic instruction: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPmTpxfB2Ig 

What I did was knit a standard ball, but instead of sewing closed the top and attaching the stem separately, I changed color for the last row of my ball and used the last 6 stitches to make the icord so the stem was seamlessly part of the pumpkin. the only other thing I changed was how many sections I split my pumpkin into (5 rather than 6) - but that’s little stuff. 

Hope that helps!

Hi!!! What yarn are you using for the fancy poncho? The one that is grey and blue looking? It looks absolutely fabulous!

I can’t remember the brand!  D:  But, it’s a fingering weight, hand-painted cotton blends that I bought a while back from a local shop called Knitting Temptations.  The pictures don’t do it justice.

Mephistopheles and asmodeus

Mephistopheles: Have you ever helped a loved one destroy themselves?

Yikes. This one gets very personal for me very fast because, well, okay. So basically, both of my parents are alcoholics. My ma is less of a drinker than my dad (that being said, she is still drunk every night), so her situation isn’t quite as bad. However, with my father, he is literally drinking himself to death. While I’m not actively forcing him to drink or anything, I’m not really actively helping anything either, you know? I just kind of watch it all happen. I’m sorry this is such a morose answer, but it is the truest I can give. 

Asmodeus: On whom do you want revenge and how would you take it?

I have been mistreated in my life, but I honestly don’t really seek revenge. I withdraw, sure, but I don’t actively seek revenge. My friends have blown me off and made me feel terrible about myself. I’ve said before on this blog that I was emotionally and physically abused by my sister. I’ve said just now that my parents are drinkers and so they haven’t really been the best to grow up around. The most terrified I have ever been was once when I was fourteen I was being driven by my father (who was under the influence) and I honestly thought we were going to crash because we were lost and had swerved off the road several times... But I mean I just don’t want revenge. Sometimes I get angry but I never want to hurt someone. So yeah I wouldn’t seek any kind of revenge on anyone. I’m not trying to.
