PROGRESS!!!!!!

#out of queue #ani rambles #so the problem i had earlier was ‘i made 2 chains when i wasnt supposed to and everything was whack’ #but i fixed it so now its Less Whack. #this is gonna be the hood i have like 12 more rows to stitch which might be a full ball of my yarn #also im understanding how motherfuckers listen to podcasts #i listened to like 4 video essays dissecting hozier lyrics and comparing them to dantes inferno #like my other hobbies (drawing and writing) require imagination and concentration and Specific Vibes #crochet requires a different kind of concentration #but so far its good for listening to new music and videoessays so maybe i’ll try a podcast tomorrow. or friday #tomorrow meaning later today because ITS FIVE AM #AAAAAAAAA

Fiber arts tumblr is the only place I can say "I'm not selling this for any less than $200" where people are more likely to go "oh. yeah 😔" than just straight up balk at the idea of spending hundreds of dollars on a tiny 5 inch plushie (that has 4 different colors) (handmade without a pattern and nothing else like it on the market) (atypical design) (took at least 6 hours)

#text #a very particular distaste for people who beg and beg for crochet art #and then tell me thats too much to pay for something so small #motherfucker go pick up a crochet hook and get a bunch of yarn and look at the picture and make it yourself then #guarantee it will take you longer than it took me #me who churns these out in hours with just a 3d model for reference #and then like. ive said this before. but my amigurumi are odd in that they are not just little chibi blob shapes #you can probably find ay least a handful of people willing to make ANY pokemon but it will NOT look exactly like that pokemon #itll be a cute simplified version #anyway i feel like this is probably one of those 'two experts in a field overestimate the average persons knowledge of their field' meme

[whatareyoudoingwithamaserati]

they call me the Finisher. on account of how many crochet projects I am finishing

Bridesmaid’s Shawl that may or may not have taken me three months of work (it’s fucking LONG)

#when I say long I mean looong btw I’m six foot and it doesn’t sit nicely in my wingspan at all it’s massive #and so so sooo pretty :] #also never let anyone tell you that fibre artists are all nice and calm and relaxed. this thing was a chain of fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck #motherfucker son of a bitch fuck this shit etc etc #I’d do it again in a heartbeat. #the yarn was so pleasant to work with #awts and cwafts #cats.txt

yarn expedition was a success!

but i am full of guilt that has no place to go (no authority figure to grovel for forgiveness from) bc i maybe had an employee tell me i forgot to pay for one of the skeins (which i then paid for) and now i feel awful abt that whole interaction djdskdl if u have an anxiety or trauma disorder be VERY careful with checkouts and payment whatever level of legality you decide to partake in 👍

#blechhh yarn shouldnt be so expensive if they dont want u to try to skip paying !!! #also im sure wallys mart can like. afford to lose a skein. that employee is a jerkass motherfucker for hassling me abt it tbh #ik he's just doing his job but goddamn i know for a fact he doesnt get paid enough to hassle customers over YARN of all things #i wish somebody was yelling at me rn or smth just so i could work thru this guilt sbdjdl i need to be Afraid and grovel to work thru it :') #tfw u have to learn how to deal w emotions in a healthy way bc nobody is actively abusing u in that moment!!!! #pippen needs 2nd breakfast

[verdemoun]

modern au but the gang waking up in modern day in the order they died with memories of their lives as outlaws:

bessie motherfucking matthews being the one that rounds them up. she's a professor at a university teaching women's history and owns a little cottage on the outskirts of town, and uses newspaper articles to try and plot out who/where someone will 'wake up'

sean was the first VDL she successfully found. davey and mac somehow found each other and got themselves incarcerated for armed robbery before she got them.

sean adapts almost instantly and loves the chaos of modern day cities: car horns, fluorescent lights, night clubs, television (fuck you lenny reading is for nerds!!). he steals a bike he calls ennis II and gets a job delivering pizzas

she finds hosea and lenny next. it's a very emotional reunion. she starts calling lenny her son. hosea spends at least a week refusing to let his wife out of his sight because he has to be dreaming, kisses and adores her at every opportunity. their dates are her teaching him to drive a car

lenny takes less than a day to figure out computers and takes over the locate the VDLs project. he has what is effectively a murder wall of colored yarn and push pins trying to figure out when and where the next person will appear. manages to cyber-stalk down jenny, who being as breathtakingly clever as she is figured out the present all by herself and works in a diner. she comes over for dinner twice a week

retracing the gang's steps they find kieran, who is doing fabulously not well. he's been homeless for a month, got hit by a car and is very, very distraught by not only the memories of his torture after being taken by o'driscolls but the fact he betrayed the gang by talking. bessie matthews, mother to all, introduces him to noise cancelling headphones, gardening, and horse girl movies.

lenny: hey i've been doing some research and i think most of us have this thing called ptsd????

when hosea and bessie want to have a nice, quiet romantic dinner by themselves they put sensory videos on the tv and all the boys just sit there silently

had a silly thought for the bun!ghost au but the realized it probably(?) wouldn't be practical but--

angora rabbits right? you can make yarn from their fur. so imagine the amount of shed a shifter rabbit could produce, collecting it, n ghost knitting stuff for his loved ones (bc my brain always wants to make soldiers knit)

like I said, probably not practical, but it makes me curious abt 1) does ghost's furn change with the seasons and 2) what taking care of his fur looks like (he shoves a comb into Johnny's hands n then shifts lol)

If I wasn't so dead set on him being a Flemish Giant, an Angora would be hilarious.

I haven't decided yet if his entire family are all the same breed of rabbit, but it would be particularly adorable if his mom or an older sister were, and used their fur to make sweaters for the whole family 🥰 So I may do that, not sure yet.

Ghost sheds like a motherfucker, and he does grow a winter coat. Being such a big bun, that comes with having so much fur. His own room, his office, and eventually Soap's room are covered in his fluff, especially when he blows his coat in spring.

Another thing to remember is that Ghost is trans here. 😈 Rabbits will pluck their own fur to insulate and build nests. And while he's not gonna get knocked up, for plot reasons, there's a suspicious amount of fur stuffed into both his and Soap's beds, under the covers, in the pillowcase, everywhere. Thankfully Soap doesn't have any allergies.

Ghost does love a good brushing. After a long day sometimes he'll kick the door open to Soap's room or office, wherever he is, toss a brush onto the desk, and that's all the warning Soap gets before a 30lb rabbit flops on top of whatever he had just been working on, expecting to be brushed and pet.

Hey, Mami!

Earth42!Miles Morales x Black!AFAB Reader TWs: mentions of stimming (Can be read as an autistic reader tbh?), N-word usage, slight recollection of murder (c'mon gang its prowler miles),

ingredients: Sugar, kisses, and a lil bit of smiles <3 (Fluff!!) W/C: 837

It had been about two days since you last saw your boyfriend, and you were beginning to get a little worried about his whereabouts. Ever since he told you about him being the prowler and how he avoided taking his real phone on missions, you became hyperaware of the time he spent running the streets. You weren't mad at all, just scared. You missed your man and it spooked the living shit out of you that you couldn't check upon him. You double-checked your phone to see if you had gotten a text from him that you somehow missed, frowning slightly when the familiar purple heart emoji didn't appear in your notification center.

To both ease your nerves and take your mind off your boyfriend, you decided to crochet a hat with kitty ears on top. You got some spools of black yarn, connected your phone to your Bluetooth speaker, and began to listen to some Brandy while you crocheted the kitty beanie. Everything was going smoothly, you had plenty of yarn, your LEDs were on a calming shade of storm blue, and the small patter of rain hit your window as you found your inner peace. After around 2 hours of crocheting, however, a faint knocking noise was heard from somewhere in your room. You convinced yourself you didn't really hear it, and finished up your kitty beanie.

*Knock knock knock!*

You quickly jumped up from your bed, gently sticking your crochet needle into a small slit in the beanie, lifting your head to the source of the noise. Your face lights up with joy as you see a familiar silhouette crouched down on the roof by your window. You cheer quietly, arms tensing around your shoulders as they rock back and forth as you run over to your window. "Hey hunnie!" you beam as you open the window, sliding your curtains to the side to make room for Miles. "Hey, mami!" he says as he shakes the rainwater from his body, vaguely resembling a dog.

He placed a gentle, cold kiss on the top of your head before chucking lowly. "Not you leaving me in the cold," he grumbles with faux annoyance, wrapping his arms around your waist. "Nigga I just got you back after two days of radio silence, don't start wit' your sassy sargeant shit." I retort as I playfully roll my eyes, smashing the side of my face into his cold and soaked chest. "Did you walk in the rain!?" I exclaim as I quickly look up at Miles. "You already know I did, mami. Anything for you" he shrugs.

I sigh loudly, gesturing to my closet. "Go change outta them wet ass clothes before you catch a cold. Then, come tell me about your mission!" I add with a wide grin, letting Miles go and skipping back to my original position on my bed and continuing with my project. He knew how much I loved him recalling all the details about his missions, silently listening in awe as I fidgeted with my hands and made small noises of approval every now and again. Miles would never admit it, but he thought it was cute how when I got happy, my arms would immediately give away my joy. He grabbed some of his clothes from my closet before disappearing into my bathroom, emerging 5 minutes later with a black wife beater, purple sweatpants, and...my bright pink headband???

"Not you stealing from your girlfriend..." I giggled as I looked up at the headband on Miles's head. "My nigga don't hate me cuz I'm beautiful. Or whatever Tupac said." He laughed loudly. "TUPAC!?!??!" I yelled with wide eyes and a slack jaw, processing the sheer audacity this motherfucker had. We begin fake bickering for about 5 minutes before Miles calms down and begins explaining his latest mission. He went on about some corrupt fucker who was dabbling in things he shouldn't have been dabbling in. I nod my head as I focus my gaze on the kitty beanie in my lap, but remain sharply fixated on Miles's every word.

"So yeah, then I had to take the nigga on by myself while Aaron boxed the niggas outside up. Whatchu workin' on ma?" He gently asks as he notices my hands steady pattern of crochet. "Huh? Oh, Just finishing this kitty beanie!" I giggle as I finalize the hat, stretching it slightly to make sure that it didn't have any loose points. I gesture for Miles to lean in closer, before setting the beanie on his head with a smile. He gently reaches for the hat with a small smile, fangs peaking out gently in his perfect mug. "You look so adorableee~, bae!" I cheer as my hands flap slightly. "Really? Why thank you, Mami." He coos with a wink.

We spent the rest of the night talking about random topics. Crochet, his past victims, and more whilst smothering each other in our presence, pressed up against each other softly. "G'night, Miles."

"Goodnight, Mi Vida."

pls credit if you use this idea!

[gornwen]

After eight years, I have agreed to knit Handsome a garment, socks, particularly, boot socks for him to wear with his cowboy boots. Handsome is Texan, he owns multiple pairs of cowboy boots.

Handsome is Texan and built like it. So I'll be here for the next millennium knitting his shoe size US 14, thick of calf, 80 stitch circumference boot socks on my tiny sock needles.

Handsome is also Chinese Spinaporean and very excited about his sock number being 80.

I'm not.

Brahms, Billy and Leslie with an S/O that can knit and/or crochet (Head-canons)

Okay, this is just me spewing my thoughts out right now since I’m going into over drive making gifts for my loved ones this Christmas and I’ve had these headcanons on my mind for a while so...Here we are.

Featuring ‘The boys’: Brahms Heelshire, Billy Lenz, and Leslie Vernon 

Brahms Heelshire

When you had taken the nanny position for the Heelshire’s you made sure to pack enough yarn to keep you busy on your off time, which honestly wasn’t much since you thought you’d have your hands full with an living breathing child and not a doll. None the less, when you have a spare moment to deviate from the schedule you get in a few rows before getting back to work.

Hell, for kicks you make the doll a little hat to wear when you take it outside to accompany you with cleaning out the rat traps.

With that said, Brahms notices your hobby and is instantly enamored. He wants nothing more than for you to make him a cozy sweater to keep him warm within the walls. He wants to experience you coming up to him with a giddy grin and showing him your latest masterpiece.

This motherfucker is a total yarn snob.

Allow me to explain. Once he comes out of the walls and you become used to him, he will -at first- timidly ask you to make him something but he wants it done with a VERY specific fiber. Got only merino wool? Only got acrylic? No, Y/N, sweet Y/N. That will not do for this special brat boy. 

If you have internet this man is gonna be ordering so much yarn that you’d swear he was trying to support the yarn industry all on his own. 

Expect him to give you a list of what he wants you to make. 

He will get to the point where if you don’t make it, he doesn't want it. It’s up you to decide if you want to encourage this behavior or not. 

Now if you DON’T want to become a one human sweat-shop for this man you can encourage him to learn how to crochet/knit on his own so he can be in control of what he makes and how he makes it.

Not a fan.

Well, at first.

Brahms is the type of person that if he is not good at something immediately he will claim that he hates the hobby all together.

It takes a while for him to calm down and sit his ass down to get the hang of it.

Once he dose, you’ve earned yourself a crafting buddy for life.

Expect handmade sweaters, hats, scarfs, blankets to the point you aren’t gonna know what to do with them all.

Leslie Vernon

You are in the presence of a Renaissance Man.

He knows how to knit and crochet, maybe not advanced but enough to make a functional piece. Figured he ‘ought to learn other methods of clothes making while he learned how to sew for his costume. 

Made himself a scarf as his first project.

You know this bastard has made a replica of Freddy’s sweater and has it hidden in his closet somewhere.

Thrifty boy. He knows how to unravel already made sweaters/knitted items so he can reuse the yarn for his own projects.

Now, when he finds out about your hobby he is over the moon and wants to talk AVIDLY about it. He wants to know what your favorite stitch is, he wants to know what techniques you’d like to learn, he wants to know what’s your favorite item to create. 

SHOW THIS MAN YOU WIPs! He will not judge you if they’re years old and he will show you his in return.

Out of all three of them, Leslie is gonna be the most enjoyable to work around. 

Leslie does not expect you to make things for him, even though he loves to give you handmade gifts when he has the chance. What he loves is just spending time with you while you’re working up a project and listen to you talk about it. 

This man is enthusiastic about his hobbies and passions, so he just soaks up your enthusiasm for yours. 

I’m sorry, he would be the most supportive BF for anything you do and I’m dying on that hill.

Billy Lenz

This boy is more interested in playing with your yarn balls than the actual hobby itself.

Seriously, you’ll be trying to get a project done and all of a sudden Billy will slink right up and start playing with the yarn like a cat. Rolling on the floor, meowing and all.

Let him play for your own sanity. Just try not to let him get tangled up in the yarn.

Secretly likes getting tangled in the yarn since you have to put your hands all over him to get him out of the mess.

MAKE HIM A SWEATER.

Billy is overly attached to the nasty green sweater we all know and love, and even if you buy him new sweaters he will always go back to the OG.

With that said, if you make a sweater for Billy he will become overwhelmed and tackle you in a crushing grip, blubbering on about how ‘Nasty Billy doesn't deserve this! Pretty, pretty piggie is too good for dirty Billy!”

Now be prepared for Billy to never take off the sweater you made him.

He will try showering in it to get it ‘clean’ if you’re not watching him. 

Make him enough sweaters to rotate throughout the week and everyone should be fine.

Like Brahms, Billy is particular about his fibers. He is extremely sensitive to touch and textures. If it’s too scratchy or rustic, it will drive Billy up the wall-quite fucking literally. 

If you are in a point in your relationship with him where he feels comfortable and secure enough with you to go out in the public, PLEASE take this man to a yarn shop so he can experience all the textures of the yarn before you buy them.

Loves squishing the yarn and rubbing it on his face. 

Will try snatching all the yarn he likes from the store so you’ll have a never ending supply of yarn to make him cozy sweaters out of.

You might get banned from a yarn shop or two because of this.

Once he realizes you enjoy making him things, Billy will simply walk up to you and hand you a random assortment of yarn while holding unflinching eye contact with you.

You know what to do, Y/N.

Sometimes if he likes the texture of your WIPs he will snatch them before they’re done and curl up to them like a cat.

No, do not expect to get them back Y/N. Billy needs them more than you do.

All and all, he’s not as bratty as Brahms but he’s not as helpful at Leslie. He’s just our sweet, pretty, filthy Billy.

Hey OTNF! It been a while since we talked about your knitting/sweater project, having you made any progress you would like to show us? (I am also a big fan of the knitting and fiber arts discussions on here so I would love to bring a bit of it back - last time this actually got me to pick up a years old project again)

--

Ooh, what's your project?

I need to update my ravelry with all the stuff I've been working on.

Big picture: I've made a few hats to use up yarn in my stash. My Handsome Chris is still a few inches of body and no more. My Cassidy needs sleeves. I finished my BTS sweater and wore it to Agust D's concerts, but I may go back and add to it because the fit is annoying, and I think it needs both reblocking of the upper arms and possibly some internal pieces added to force it to stop sliding down my shoulders.

Also, a yarn store in Marin went out of business and had a 70% off sale...

So I'm back to square one in terms of trying to reduce my stash. Doh.

But! But! They had things like a couple of little skeins of Reywa Fibers yak down! What I'm going to do with an orange and a saffron skein of yak down, I don't know, but it's cool.

Right now, I'm desperately searching for summer top patterns, but nothing is appealing. They all try to be summery by filling your titty area with GIANT FUCKING HOLES so that it's impossible to wear the thing without another layer. I don't even wear bras, and I want warm weather clothing, not a layering piece, for fuck sake. Most also have fucktons of lace across the peak sunburn zones on the tops of one's shoulders and upper arms. Also, sleeveless is not actually cooler. It's just more skin cancer-y.

Texture, motherfuckers! That's what belongs on your summer top, not FUCKING HOLES!

[confessions-official]

i’ve tried to start crocheting recently and i CANNOT do a chain stitch. i just can’t. i’ve looked up multiple different ways, i’ve tried each of them many times but my hands are just. Not doing it right??? i am actually on the verge of a meltdown because What the Fuck i have spent an HOUR trying to do an allegedly easy thing. specifically it’s the yarning over thats fucking everything up for me. i am trying so so hard but i am ass at anything to do with coordination and i would like to have another body please. i would like a refund on my flesh suit or at least my brain because it’s really amazingly shitty at working like it’s supposed to. i am genuinely considering staying home sick from school for the rest of the week so i can keep trying to make this goddamn motherfucking chain stitch.

and i can’t talk to anyone about this or anything coordination-related that i struggle with because they’ll say “its fine, practice makes perfect, nobody gets it on their first try” and its like. okay but YOU are not experiencing this. YOU do not have to deal with being disabled even though 1) your disability isn’t recognized as a disability even though it is extremely fucking disabling which sucks because 2) i am diagnosed with this, i was diagnosed with it at a young age i will be dealing with this for the rest of my fucking life it impacts literally every facet of everything which makes it more infuriating that 3) mostly people don’t fucking know what it is. which makes it very tiring whenever i talk about it because i have to preface the conversation with an explanation of what it is. and whenever i’m explaining this to someone as a reason for why i can’t do a thing or will do badly at a thing they’ll be like “ok well you shouldnt let that impact you so much, stop using it as an excuse” because 4) most people do not consider it a physical disability. they just don’t! which is. kind of wild to me. because like. yeah the disorder that makes everything involving coordination 100 times more difficult DO interfere with my daily life, actually. nobody gets that. it’s not that i’m clumsy, my legs just don’t work like they should. i can’t even run for longer than a couple seconds without needing to lay down for a couple minutes.

my body doesn’t work right. thats it. thats the whole thing. it doesnt work how it should and that’s fucked up every single part of my life. “dyspraxic children may be more vulnerable to bullying and social rejection” YEAH NO SHIT! even as a kid in PE classes i could see everybody else doing things that my body just wouldn’t. i tried for years but i am simply not built for that. and of fucking course thats going to get you othered, rejected and bullied, which if it happens enough times will fuck up your social skills for A While. i’m not trying to mope around about it because i understand that it’s not that bad a disorder, it is disabling but other disabilities are more disabling and i can mostly pretend i don’t need any accommodations. thats fine. i can do that. its just that the fucking chain stitch made me realize “oh, fuck. i know why my life is like this.” and maybe i am having a very strong reaction about not being able to do a chain stitch but i don’t know. it was the straw that broke the camel’s back, i guess. like, i can’t do any sports or most art, i don’t have any friends, i don’t go out and do things and i can’t even do a fucking chain stitch? i can’t even do that? i probably will end up getting it in a while but idk. i just want to crochet, man. i don’t know why this is so difficult for me. i wish i wasn’t like this. i wish i was better. like, just in general i want to be better. i’ve tried but i can’t. i just want a body and brain that work how they’re supposed to. i don’t see why i have to work twice as hard as everyone for the same results. i know nothing in life is fair but jesus christ this is ridiculous. i’m very “sad, down on his luck protagonist who gets sucked into a whirlwind adventure” coded. i am. going to start crying
