I just finished October, need to start on November asap 🫠 #WeatherWorm 🪱🧶

I forget my noise-cancelling earbuds somewhere and will only get them back on Saturday. Sleeping without them is horrible. Partner snores and they are the only thing that works. Tried using my airpods instead but he NC doesn’t work with only one worn 😭
I’m so tired 😭😭😭

Running after the DHL truck was not really what I imagined I'd do today. But not ringing my doorbell because "it takes too much time" wasn't cool. I know my package had customs charges. I had the correct amount of money ready. I always have. Can't wait for the usual driver to be back from vacation 😵

I made another little basket. I bought this yarn in 2016 or 2017. I made and frogged two different projects with it. It just didn't love the colors as a garment. The rainbow was just not rainbow-ing 🤷🏻
This time, I made the yarn into an i-cord first and then crocheted a basket. Useful and cute 🧶🏳️‍🌈

September is already done!

… already 7/18 done 🧶

(I’m sitting behind the merch booth at a small metal concert and while the bands play I have time to crochet 😅 And thanks to the unusually good lighting in this venue I’m very productive tonight 🐸)

I just got done with the month of August of my #WeatherWorm 🪱🧶
The blue made a reappearance as it has been getting a little bit colder 🍂

CW medical / health talk / mental health

I just had an 'emergency' manual therapy appointment, and the very nice physiotherapist managed to convince me that I just have an epically tense neck and am in fact not dying. Sounds like an over-reaction, I know. (1/?)

My colleague started to get way too comfy ranting about weird (borderline-)conspiracy (mostly) ableist stuff to me. I don't wanna give off the vibes that I'm into sh*t like that. I told her again and again that we'll have to disagree and that I don't want to have these kinds of discussions. (1/?)

I finished the scrap basket yesterday, and by that I used up almost 750g of my cotton yarns. All the colors I was never going to use, all the little leftovers, all the yarn from old projects I frogged because I wanted to use it again. It's so nice to finally use it all up.

I have to be honest, I'm not feeling good. It's all too much right now. Too much work. Too much socializing. Just too much.
So, I decided to cancel everything this weekend.
Instead, I'm staying home and doing some mindless crochet with scraps.

I finished July right on time! #WeatherWorm 🥳🪱🧶
I can't believe it's been more than half a year already.
August 1, 2025 at 4:59 AM
I finally finished June on the #WeatherWorm 😅🪱🧶
I'm quite a bit behind, but I'm working on July now - more red to come 🔥

Heute mal auf Deutsch, weil ich eure Schwarmintelligenz brauche:

Was wäre eine neutrale Variante von Cousin / Cousine? Was kennt ihr? Darf auch eine Wortneuschöpfung/kreativ sein.

Darf gerne geteilt werde. Danke! 🏳️‍🌈☺️

I'm wearing my hair differently today and I don't know how to feel about it. Usually, I put it in a topknot and am done with it, but I bought a diffuser attachment for my hairdryer and my hair turned out kinda nice so I kept it loose. I don't recognize myself in the mirror 🤨

I just realized that I messed up my times again, because I accidentally deleted my timer and had to track manually, so I was well over the 24-hour time limit and forgot to count some knit-time and another small project I did 😂 What a mess 😅

Here is the 'bonus project' - hooks for my crafty-cart:
July 6, 2025 at 5:12 PM
Now with my little #24hCraftChallenge done, I learned that tracking time and documenting is fun (Do I miss blogging? 🤔).
If I do it again, though, I'd like to focus on one craft. The switch between sewing and crochet/knit led to me losing focus and not finishing stuff, which was a goal.
July 6, 2025 at 4:00 PM
I (technically) finished my #24hCraftChallenge today 🥳
I worked on my sewing project, and the timer ran out. I put in eyelets, which was the part I dreaded most, and finished most of the sewing. Now I'm waiting for another tool I need to finish it.

I did more than 4h54min.
I have 0h00min left.
July 6, 2025 at 3:53 PM
I haven't forgotten about the #24hCraftChallenge, I just went back to work yesterday, and between that and some appointments, I haven't had enough time to work on the projects I want to finish. I hope I'll have some time on the weekend 🫠

Today I continued working on my 'secret' sewing project - I ironed the fabric and cut out all the pieces. Now I need a break because ironing on a hot day wasn't very fun 🫠
#24hCraftChallenge

I took me about 1h6min.
I have 6h43min left.

Yesterday evening was spent on the sofa with some knitting.
#24hCraftChallenge

(I didn't take a photo, it's the same grey project I worked on all week.)

I did about 1h4min.
I have 7h49min left.

Today I continued working on my knitting project, mostly picking up the stitches of the provisional cast-on.
#24hCraftChallenge

I worked on it for about 30min.
I have 8h53min left.
June 29, 2025 at 4:47 PM
Yesterday I spent the whole afternoon in a park with people and brought my current knitting and crochet projects. #24hCraftChallenge

I did about 2h12min in total.
I have 9h23min left.
