Poor life choices
Have I sewn the purple, curly-tipped hat to a hair clip? Yes. I regret to report that after much egging on by the rowdier element amongst us, I have succumbed to peer pressure and/or my baser instincts and done exactly that. Is this the right way to do it, the [...]
Contained
Ok, so we talked about the box option for the insides yesterday, today let's look at the tins. As I said in the previous post, you need...something...to go inside your book and be the 'pages' (ahem, and also the wee tiny compartment where you hide your treasures, but I assume [...]
Enamored
Huh, ok, you folks are as enamored of the books as I am. I mean I probably should have known. We knitters do tend to be a bookish bunch on the whole. But it's always lovely to find out for sure! So, normally I'd do this a little closer to [...]
Determined
So I know I said no more books, but apparently there's a tiny part of my soul that is just determined to prove me wrong! Yes, they open. Yes, there is a tiny secret container in there to put stuff in. Yes, they delight me in ways that are difficult [...]
Monthly reminder
Here's your monthly reminder that abortions are good, I am staunchly pro abortion, and if you support me, I will absolutely give some of your money to causes I believe in. My very first patreon goal was to set up a recurring donation to help pay for abortions, and that's [...]
Vibe shift
Don't get me wrong, I love fall. Fall is glorious. Fall is chilly mornings and crisp afternoons and bright leaves and yummy food. But right after fall comes winter. Winter with its frigid nights and icy roads and 4pm sunsets. And that can be kind of rough. Every year I [...]
Permissive
I may have made a grave error in judgement. I may have obtained some hair clips to which one of these could, were one so inclined, be affixed. And, while this will not render them suitable for kitten use, it may possibly render them suitable for adorning humans. Depending on [...]
Gleam
Ahem...I told you the next step was to embroider on it. Does the silk embroidery floss absolutely gleam? Yes. Does this make me happy on a drizzly, chilly, gray morning? Also yes. Am I having more fun than anyone should? Very much also yes.
When you just can’t wait
Ahem, you know how I'm always recommending you block? Yeah, sometimes you don't even have to wait until you're done knitting to block. If you want to see how something is coming together (or double check your gauge, or see how the fabric feels or drapes after it blocks, or [...]
Restraint
As is so often the case...the tiny things are more fun when you make, um, several. Now I will, as always, do my best to restrain myself. You have to keep your more excessive impulses in check or there's no telling what will happen. But we are going to need [...]
