so many of you are comfortable and relish in being extremely lesbophobic online because you know if you said some of the shit you say on here to a lesbian irl you'd get your fucking teeth kicked in

Crochet Eye Sweater by CarolineMoorenc

[handymasc]

Finished version of my river hag costume! First one is after weathering at the fair, where it got some actual weathering after I dragged it thru the mud all day

I love how flowy and wave-like the movement of it is!

Currently working on a drowned river witch costume for the Ren faire. So far I only had to buy the dye new: the dresses are made from old curtains, a scrap of fabric left over from another project, and wool that was gifted to me by someone who wasn’t using it. We love saving up ‘waste’ to make new stuff from here!

Ok everyone I finally got off my butt and published that pattern. You can get it from Ravelry here or if you don’t wanna use Ravelry for whatever reason you can get it here (the decryption key is px_P_CSEn-LcqnpQ5YAhCytDaIyGUWPXvLyfGTLjZLM, it’s in the url actually but some browsers remove it when you click on it for some reason). I tried to pack all the info I thought would be useful into the pattern but feel free to message me if you have questions. Happy knitting!

if you like crafting and also free things, might i suggest the antique pattern library?

it’s a not for profit that’s gathering books, patterns, and other materials related to crafting that are out of copyright (or getting permission from copyright holders in some cases) in order to share them online. they scan items, clean them up, then make everything available for free!

free things are great, especially when you’re just starting to get into something. like oh, i’m supposed to spend money on this hobby i just picked up 20 minutes ago???

the first time i ended up on the site, i seriously spent hours just trawling through everything. there’s the usual suspects like knitting, crochet, embroidery, but there’s also woodwork, calligraphy, and books on things like how to mount and frame pictures. with cross stitch patterns, they also make modern charts with the dmc colour codes available.

behold, a glorious cat cross stitch pattern (link goes to antique pattern library page):
