Finally finished knitting the shorts I started in May!! I started over 3 or 4 times (I learned to knit when I was little, abandoned it for crochet, but picked it back up this year. I got overconfident from following a sock tutorial and then crash coursed my way through with this shorts set). Made the matching top in between all the frogging, which was surprisingly quicker and easier than the shorts. And while it’s too cold to wear the shorts, I finally got to wear the socks I made at the beginning of the year!

I've been struggling to draw lately (thanks to a burnout) but turns out knitting is a great way to combat stress. And as a bonus I got a new jumper now!

Baubles

"Human, what is the purpose of the head covering you are wearing?"

"This? It's a hat, it keeps my head warm."

"Yes, I understand that, but why does it have a ball of strings on the top?"

"Oh, that? It's called a bauble, or a pom-pom. They're mainly used for decoration, but I've heard they originated with sailors, who used them as a sort of sensory extension so they'd know when they were about to hit their heads."

"That is BRILLIANT. Can you show me how to make one?"

"You knit?"

"Sure! Loads of us do! Knitting is one of the most basic ways of turning fiber into cloth, most sapient species have something like it. Show me how to make this 'bauble.'"

*a few weeks later*

"Do you like it?"

"Um... yeah, it's great. You really like baubles, huh?"

"I love them. I posted a tutorial video online, it's well on its way to being the new fashion."

"That's... great bud. Good for you."

New project!!!

A sweater for niece with some pink hearts (the pink is hand dyed, I wanted to go for a soft pastel pink, with confetti like other Coors (blue, gry, violet) but moved the yarn way to much 😅)

Here is the free pattern:

Can we take a moment for the colourwork?

It's interesting that crochet is regarded as much easier to fix mistakes, while knitting is very difficult to fix mistakes. I think that's true only when you're a novice--it's easy to just undo stitches with crochet by pulling the yarn, and more difficult to tink back or frog part of jt and put back on the needles.

But once you're comfortable fixing stitches in knitting, it's really not so bad. Laddering down allows you to fix stitches many rows ago, and if you can stomach it, you can undo big and complicated mistakes with some surgery. But with crochet (at least as far as I know; I welcome correction from more experienced crocheters) you can frog, but... that's about it. Want to fix a stitch 10 rows back ? Either make peace with it or frog 10 rows. I find crochet less fixable than knitting by far.

i really need stsg taking care of each other like so bad.

i do think suguru would be 10X better at it than gojo. He’d make gojo broth or smth when he’s sick and keep him hydrated, vs gojo would probably bring him like a 12 pack of sunny d equivalent and say he needs his vitamins.
