I decided that I don't like any of the news on here today so instead I'm going to show you guys what I've been working on because I realized that I usually don't actually post any of it here.
At the beginning of 2024 I decided during the middle of an ice storm that I was going to teach myself to crochet. You know how it is. Anyway here's everything I've made that I still have photos of (I had to switch phones recently and lost some of my stuff)
so approximately an order: I started with a pair of leg warmers I could wear to work. On the one hand they are very cute and very warm on the other hand I cannot get them to stay up I need to add a tie to the top of them.
And then I made a whole sweater. My second project I sat down and lately modified a video pattern (shortened the sleeves and made it a little bit wider cuz I am not as skinny as the original maker) and most importantly... I decided instead of the standard collar I wanted a turtleneck but you see this was my second project ever... And I may have underestimated how wide the chain I made was going to be and ended up with a... Mild monstrosity. It's incredibly silly and I love it
Next I made this muffler by teaching myself how to do crocodile stitch. I was using leftover yarn from the sweater and some black I had around.
And then I remembered that a friend of mine had made a request years ago back when I was still just doing loom knitting asking if I could make them a shawl and I did not have the skills and talents for that at the time but I do now so I contacted their partner and had them give me their new address and tell me what colors they're into right now and secretly made them this shawl
And then I this crocodile scale dice bag to put in the box for the partner so they would have a nice surprise too.
And my most recent project finished yesterday: My coworker is having another baby and has not told most of us yet. They have forgotten that I can hear everything that happens in the next room over though so I overheard part of the conversation of them telling our boss. So I thought it would be fun to surprise them with a pair of stuffed rabbits. Rabbits were my animal of choice for stuffed animal as a kid. And I like the idea of having one for each of the kids. I'm going to be keeping them in my desk until they tell me.
Anyway I hope you enjoyed this tour oh my God I almost forgot the important one that took up multiple months of my life just a second.
I made an entire blanket. It is made out of leftover yarn given to me over the years by various people and remnants from projects I've done previously. I like to call it the gayest blanket because not only is it a full rainbow but I did absolutely no math. Didn't count a single thing.
The family headed to Tartosa to visit the White Legacy cemetery.
Sim Cemetary & Catacombs by EA ID sambamsims. I couldn't figure out how to get rid of the spring decor :(
"This is where everyone in our legacy is laid to rest."
"These are your grandparents. They died when I was young, but they gave me the happiest childhood memories."
Ella took Aurora to visit their memorial. "Your grandmother Snow loved to cross-stitch. I guess I took after her a little, since I loved to knit."
"Oh yes, the knits! I played with Claire the Bear and Yarny all my life, but about that sweater...."
"Did you like it? It was my masterpiece."
"..."
"These were my grandparents on my father's side... your great-grandparents and Uncle Soren, who was the King of Tartosa before he passed."
"And these are Grandma Snow's parents, the Queen and King of the Bramblewood. They loved to cross-stitch too."
"Your oldest uncle Doug and his wife both Ashley died of old age, but it was so tragic. Their eldest two daughters died in accidents. They have one living daughter, Krysta."
"My favorite sister Joy and her husband Taylor. Joy was electrocuted when their 4 kids were young. You'll meet them at your celebration."
Aurora's cousin Noe Bianchi happened to be at the catacombs visiting his parents, who had died of old age. Shylee had been the longest living of the 7 "dwarfs."
"N-nice to meet you."
"Uncle Hayden was quite accomplished. Both him and his wife died elderly, but Uncle Hayden's twin Raphael died by falling from a cliff when he was 50. Another tragic end. He hadn't ever gotten married."
"Uncle Dwight and Aunt Somna were the musical ones in the family. In fact, Aunt Somna was an award-winning violinist! Both died in their old age as well."
"I can't believe I had this many Uncles and Aunts, and I never got to meet them."
*Pained silence*
"We will meet some of your other cousins at your welcoming banquet."
I hope I can keep this up for the whole legacy... Love @ravasheencc Sims Portrait maker and Photographic Memory 2.0 mods; makes it so much easier to do this! L. was going around collecting urns every time we got a notice of death.
The family took an awkward family photo on their way out.
So many presents (and a few lumps of coal) are left for the hatchlings!
Goodness, for being so young, you all continue to amaze me! Keep up the great work!
- Santa 🎄
Christmas usually means two things - family and presents.
And in the Dragon Realms, there were lots and lots and lots of family and presents to be found in a single gathering, which meant there was plenty of fun to be had long after Santa left and the thrill of eviscerating wrapping paper wore off.
Each and every last one of these tots scored at least two gifts - something courtesy of Santa, and however many they got from their caretakers.
And boy howdy, did they need him to shoulder some of the burden with so many kids around.
Juggling secret shopping and craftsmanship with decorating and childrearing was not an easy task at a magnanimous scale, on top of all the additional effort that was customary during the Year of the Dragon.
Toys comprised the majority of the babies’ Christmas presents, with close runners-up being Mudada’s stuffed animals and whatever assortment of knitted goods Revilo had whipped up - mostly sweaters. The pair of Dream Weavers were miracle workers when it came to their crafts; their finesse and efficacy could give the Artisans (and perhaps even Santa) a run for their money.
Fittingly, the eponymous dragon faction dedicated the majority of their days to the little ones throughout the leadup to Christmas, helping both their clutches and any visitors from the other clans make decorations, or working in tandem to build toys, predominantly in the form of Nestor putting his carpentry skills to good use and Lindar providing assistance with the mechanisms. If colours were required, Gildas was their man.
And yet somehow, despite all the time and resources that went into personal gifts, there had been enough leftover in the budget for them to provide spare toys that could be kept around in the nurseries for everyone to play with.
Well, maybe the surplus wasn’t entirely unintentional. Kids often necessitated backups and extra precautions.
Suffice to say, there ended up being hundreds and hundreds of gifts altogether.
A handful of them seemed like they’d be more suitable for pets such as chew toys (no matter how often the hatchlings acted like cats and dogs), but were guaranteed to satisfy their teething issues (and discourage them from mauling all the furniture in sight).
The presence of coal amongst all of the toys from Santa had less to do with it being a punishment for naughty little dragons and rather being something that several nutcases legitimately wanted for Christmas.
It made sense in some aspects because coal could serve as materials for aspiring Beast Makers…but not so much in the cases where the concept of black rocks that were given as punishments piqued their interest for whatever reason.
All the tumult that new toys brought couldn’t compare to what unfolded after a handful of bright sparks realised that there were many fun things you can do with coal, including but not limited to setting it on fire and potentially compromising your health over the long term, throwing it at walls and leaving powdery stains everywhere, crushing it up and mixing it with snow to create unholy grey sludge, or making snowmen that either had the perfect black buttons and eyes, yearned for the sweet release of death, or both.
Either way, every last lump had been enchanted to negate any ill effects they could have on the little ones or leave harmful residue anywhere - and the elder dragons were quick to dispose of it once the novelty wore off.

Trendy Kids Tops in France: The Ultimate Guide to Fashionable Knits
In the realm of children's fashion, France stands as a beacon of style and sophistication. From the cobblestone streets of Paris to the sun-kissed beaches of Nice, French kids exude charm and elegance in every aspect, including their clothing. And when it comes to trendy tops for the little ones, nothing quite compares to the allure of knitted sweaters and tops.
In this ultimate guide, we'll delve into the world of knits for children, exploring the latest trends, styles, and where to find the perfect pieces to elevate your child's wardrobe.
1. The Timeless Appeal of Knitted Sweaters
Knitted sweaters hold a timeless charm that transcends generations. From classic cable knits to playful intarsia designs, these cozy garments offer warmth and style in equal measure. Whether layered over a button-down shirt for a preppy look or paired with jeans for a casual ensemble, knitted sweaters add an element of sophistication to any outfit.
2. Exploring Versatile Kids Tops Styles
Kids tops come in a myriad of styles, each catering to different tastes and occasions. From chunky knit pullovers perfect for chilly days to lightweight cotton tops ideal for summer adventures, there's a style to suit every preference. Explore the world of ruffled sleeves, peplum hems, and graphic prints to find the perfect top that reflects your child's personality.
3. French Influence on Children's Fashion
French fashion has long been synonymous with elegance and refinement, and this influence extends to children's clothing as well. From chic Parisian boutiques to bustling markets in Provence, French kids are spoiled for choice when it comes to fashionable attire. Embrace the effortless style of French fashion by opting for timeless pieces with a modern twist.
4. Where to Find High-Quality Knits for Children
Finding high-quality knits for children is essential to ensuring both comfort and durability. Look for reputable brands known for their attention to detail and use of premium materials. Whether shopping online or browsing local boutiques, prioritize quality over quantity to build a versatile wardrobe that stands the test of time.
5. Care and Maintenance Tips for Knitted Tops
Proper care and maintenance are crucial to prolonging the life of knitted tops. Follow the manufacturer's care instructions carefully, paying special attention to the washing and drying guidelines. Avoid exposing knits to excessive heat or friction, as this can cause them to stretch or pill. Invest in a gentle detergent formulated for wool or delicate fabrics to keep your child's knits looking pristine.
6. Budget-Friendly Options for Fashion-Conscious Parents
Fashion-conscious parents on a budget need not compromise on style when it comes to dressing their little ones. Look for affordable retailers that offer stylish yet affordable kids' tops without sacrificing quality. Keep an eye out for sales and promotions, and consider shopping off-season to score great deals on knitted sweaters and tops.
7. Sustainable Knitwear: A Growing Trend
With increasing awareness of environmental issues, sustainable knitwear has emerged as a popular choice among eco-conscious parents. Look for brands that prioritize ethical sourcing and production methods, such as using organic cotton or recycled materials. By investing in sustainable knitwear, you can dress your child in style while also supporting environmentally-friendly practices.
8. Embracing Individuality with Custom Knits
For a truly unique wardrobe, consider investing in custom knits tailored to your child's preferences. Whether it's a personalized sweater with their name knitted into the design or a custom colorway chosen by your little fashionista, custom knits allow you to embrace individuality and creativity. Seek out local artisans or online makers who specialize in bespoke children's clothing for one-of-a-kind pieces that are sure to turn heads.
9. Knits for All Seasons: Styling Tips
Knitted tops aren't just for winter – with the right styling, they can be worn year-round. Layer lightweight knits over tank tops or dresses for a cozy yet breathable ensemble in the warmer months. In cooler weather, opt for thicker knits layered under jackets or coats for added warmth. Experiment with different textures and colors to create versatile looks that transition seamlessly from season to season.
10. Top Brands for Kids Tops in France
When it comes to children's fashion in France, several brands stand out for their impeccable craftsmanship and distinctive designs. From iconic labels like Petit Bateau and Jacadi to up-and-coming designers pushing the boundaries of traditional knitwear, French brands offer a wealth of options for discerning parents seeking the best for their little ones.
11. Crafting Memories: DIY Knitting Projects
Get hands-on with your child's wardrobe by embarking on DIY knitting projects together. Whether you're a seasoned knitter or a complete novice, there are plenty of beginner-friendly patterns and tutorials available online. Bond over the rhythmic click of knitting needles as you create cozy sweaters, hats, and scarves that will be cherished for years to come.
12. Understanding Knit Fabrics
Not all knits are created equal – understanding the different types of knit fabrics can help you make informed decisions when shopping for children's tops. From breathable cotton knits perfect for summer to insulating wool blends ideal for winter, each fabric offers unique properties suited to different climates and preferences. Familiarize yourself with common knit fabrics to choose the best options for your child's needs.
13. Fashion Faux Pas to Avoid
While experimenting with fashion is fun, there are a few common pitfalls to avoid when it comes to styling kids' tops. Steer clear of overly fussy designs that may be uncomfortable for active children, and opt for soft, stretchy fabrics that allow for ease of movement. Avoid overly matching outfits in favor of mixing and matching different pieces to create eclectic yet cohesive looks.
14. Elevating Everyday Looks with Knitted Accessories
Accessorizing is key to elevating everyday looks, and knitted accessories offer both style and functionality. From cozy beanies and scarves to statement-making socks and mittens, accessories add a touch of whimsy to any outfit. Mix and match different textures and colors to create eye-catching ensembles that reflect your child's personality.
15. Conclusion
In conclusion, knitted sweaters and tops are a staple in every fashionable child's wardrobe, offering style, comfort, and versatility. Whether you're drawn to classic designs or avant-garde styles, there's a knit for every taste and occasion.
