A Home for the Bees

To be clear: you live with the bees, the bees don't live with you.

Recently someone moved into this abandoned hobbit hole and decided to bring it back to life and let the wisteria take over~ 🪻🌿

I put most of my creative energy into working on my granny square blanket but I did do a little spinning too.

Sneak-peak of a village I'm working on, deep in the bayou. I enjoy building in this rustic, more messy style, even though I don't get to do it often. It's good to be back!

Mini crochet dump

I’ve been spending the last couple of months altering/redoing/undoing some of my older projects

One thing I did was redo the patchwork cardigan into a sweater and a bag (the cardigan looks really good in this picture but it was waaay too big and the squares weren’t all the same size so they didn’t sit flat). Even with making these two things I still had a decent amount of yarn leftover, and I also unraveled two tops since I was never going to wear acrylic tank tops

I ended up making this blanket from the scrap yarn and some old yarn, and I ended up with exactly enough yarn for 36 squares. It was also my first time doing an invisible join, still gotta figure out how to do the corners but definitely learned a lot doing it!

(Also this was my first time blocking squares, featuring my homemade blocking board (yes it took me forever to make it. and yes my hands hurt just thinking about it))

And don’t forget about the snag (snail bag)! I don’t really think there’s much else to say about it

GAH. 15 ???? WHAT HOW

[startedwellthatsentence]

I started crocheting this summer and fell in love with it. I made a fuckton of hats and a few scarves and two blankets and a few headbands as gifts, as well as that and more for myself.

For one of those blankets I found two different colors and asked the recipient (my grandma) which color was better: Caron cinnamon swirl cakes in Beach Towel or Oyster. We both instantly agreed that the oyster color was kinda bland and meh, while the Beach Towel color was amazing and gorgeous, so she got a blanket. But I had already bought the oyster to show her, and I had seen a bunch of hexagon cardigans and wanted to try that concept (I do not use patterns, I just riff on construction concepts).

I then proceeded to ask which of the other grad students if they wanted to have the finished cardigan, because I would never wear 1) a crochet garment because they are UnComfy and 2) the color because it was so boring. One immediately jumped at it.

Took it home to my mom, and she decided she needed a second one in the same color (gross) once I worked out the bugs on the first one.

I got distracted during the making because it’s so repetitive and eventually I had a hexagon that had ENORMOUS sleeves just utterly extremely too big but instead of ripping back I wanted to see if I could salvage them somehow, so I joined them and did some VERY quick decreases. They actually looked amazing as bishop sleeves, so now a THIRD friend is getting one. In the same color.

I just. The color. I hate it. But I made a thing so that’s cool:

I love the casual sadism of Hannibal flipping a fucking coin to decide whether to save Bella. Hmm, do I want to torment Bella or torment Jack?
