Holey, part 4
Ok see, I told you it gets better if you keep going! The trick really is to just keep at it. One looks lonely, two or three look kinda sad. But once you start to get a whole bunch of them all hanging out together, they get cuter and cuter. [...]
Variations 8
Last one! Thank you all for indulging me while I played with my new toy. I realize it may well have had that 'small child asks you if you'd like to meet their favorite stuffed animals' vibe. This is star F from the book with fold 6 nudged out [...]
Holey, part 3
Ok real talk, It Always Looks Kinda Underwhelming At The Beginning. No really, I finally figured this out. EVERY time I go to stitch on a hole, I spend the first half hour I'm stitching thinking ew, this is not good, why am I so bad at this, I suck, [...]
Variations 7
Ok, so this one in particular makes me really really want to do a whole set of these where they've got six points like a snowflake. I'm blaming the lovely soft blue. It's totally doable, you just have to resign yourself to sliiiiiiightly fiddlier folds at the start. But really, [...]
Holey, part 2
So the first step in mending is always assessing the situation and making a plan. In this case, the situation is a couple of midsized (about the size of my thumbnail) holes in a dark pajama sweater (meaning a sweater I only really wear around the house). And the plan [...]
Variations 6
Yup, yup I continue to be easily amused. Fairly sure it would be appropriate to carve 'easily amused' on my tombstone when the time comes. There are worse ways to be. This (colorful picture) is star E from the book made with slightly wider paper, with the bottom point folded [...]
Holey
Ok, I have a sweater with holes (one I bought in 2021 and wore constantly and while wrangling knife-tipped kittens, so I'm much less salty about the holes in this one than about the disintegration of the last one), and a stack of delightfully bright embroidery floss. Which means I'll [...]
Variations 5
I mean I *did* warn you that I took the shiny new paper and folded through the whole damn book. Which sure, I don't expect anyone *else* to do, but it was actually exactly what I most wanted to be doing while I did it, so I can't really bring [...]
Shoddy, part 3
Last round of Q&A about the Madewell sweater that was covered in pills after one wear (see posts from the previous two days for more details if you're just now wandering by). As before, you can see me flop the sweater around on instagram should you have such a desire. [...]
Variations 4
So I *strongly* suspect that you folks are largely responsible for the current difficulties in finding the fancy paper you need for these. And while I did not expect to ever have 'caused a run on weird paper' on my list of life achievements, it's not the worst thing a [...]
