Cold Winter On The Way

Old Farmers Almanac says this winter is going to suck. And I have no guilt whatsoever about using that news story to shill my online shop.

Over at That Sinking Ship, I have scarves up and soon there will be hand warmers and hats. I have a ton of yarn to use up and blankets (which will be posted eventually) take way too long. Be on the lookout for new products!

New Scarf!

Oh, yeah, I am stash busting like a mofo…

When I said I was stash busting, I absolutely meant it. I am kinda tired of so much yarn around and I am more than happy to share it with others! Check out this item and others in my shop!

July Anime Loot Crate: Squadron

img_20160803_195611.jpg

  • Gate Carabiner
  • Gate T-Shirt
  • Blind Box Gundam Figure
  • Anti-Magic Academy Scarf
  • Arpeggio of Blue Steel Manga

The shirt is cool but again, I’ve got a box full of stuff from anime I’m not a fan of (because I’d never heard of it before). I hate to say it but I’ll probably be giving away everything but the shirt and the cargo bracelet (because those are cool).

Next month’s box is supposed to be back to school themed so I’m hoping for journals or cool pens!

New Needlework!

IMG_3581

 

I’ve been pretty determined about getting rid of my giant yarn stash (it’s frightening, really) and getting to all the projects people have asked me for, so I’ll be posting things for your greedy little eyes to feast on as they’re completed. This is a crochet scarf that I mostly made for shits and giggles. Nobody asked me for it so I’ll probably be selling it if anyone wants it. It took up an entire skein of yarn to I’m happy to say it’s one skein down… Waaaayy too many to go.

Threads for Thursday

IMG_3360

A bunch of entries ago I spoke about clearing my yarn debts; knit or crochet stuff I said I’d make for people but then life happened and they never got done. This is one of the oldest ones; a scarf for my demon seed. 🙂

This is made with tiny, fuzzy, lace yarn that I got in a clearance bin years ago. It’s softer than it looks and a bitch and a half to work with.

Now, the needlework page on my site is under construction (I’m making new stuff) but expect it back soon. 🙂 I like making yarn stuffs and I can’t possibly use it all myself so you guys will be able to buy some. Isn’t that great?

Paying off my debts.

A funny thing happens to people when they find out you can do a thing. All of a sudden, everybody wants you to do it for them. And since I’m a people pleaser (me and my shrink are working on that) I keep agreeing to make things for people. This has resulted in what I have called “Yarn Debts.”  I can only crochet or knit at a certain speed but I would still like to get things done so I could finally let go of my guilt.

Here are the projects I’m trying to finish:

IMG_3281A baby blanket for my cousin’s daughter.

IMG_3282 A scarf for Misfitlibrarian.

This is the progress I’ve made so far and I’ve been working diligently on these before I start anything new. Much like writing more than one story at a time, I am trying to finish what’s started before starting anything else. :p

Till my tendinitis flares up. Then you all get to frigging wait because that shit hurts. >_<
