The snow is starting in Montreal and Toronto. Perfect time to hunker down and learn how to do cable stitches in #crochet. Had to frog at least 5 times before I had my a-ha moment and it all made sense. Eventually this will be a messenger bag. 🧶

My husband knows me and my #octopus #fetish so well. Got me a set of Christmas ornaments - Santa on his octopus sleigh! Oh yeah.

My destress project is gaining momentum. Halfway to a comfy winter throw. #crochet 🧶

Fa ulous day at tje Toronto #Vintage Show. Picked up a gorgeous wrap with beaded #velvet #peacocks on it and hanging #beaded fringe. Can't wait to wear this to a show.

Six down, 29 to go for the rest of the blanket. Liking where this is going. #crochet 🧶

Best season ever! I love #autumn - especially #pumpkin festivals where people with mad carving skills can carve and create real art with gourds.

Starting a new #crochet blanket for the couch for the colder weather. The pink is faux fur and the dark teal is Bernat super soft blanket yarn. I love the swirl pattern but the counting is a pain - had to frog the rows several times. I know it will get easier and so worth it. 🧶

Finally finished my shawl for the winter. With pockets! And first time crocheting a hood. I know where all the errors are, and that makes it all mine. Bring on winter! 🧶 #crochet

Wow Amazon, you really have that overpackaging thing mastered. All this for two #crochet needles. 🧶

Yarn shopping is so soothing. Excited to get started on a blanket using these two - a super bulky soft dark teal from Bernat and oh so soft super bulky rose faux fur from Loops & Threads.

I always prefer teavelling by train if it's possible. Less stress, nice view, and I have time for my #crochet. 🧶

I finished it! Really happy with this leaf shoulder bag I crocheted. The 3D leaf effect was hard to learn but now it's a snap. Bought the shoulder strap from Amazon. I could definitely see making these in all sorts of colours.

Went to a craft/food show at #WychwoodBarns today. So much goregous art and yummy food. Bought some #crochet flowers. I love that yarn crafts are so popular again and it's mostly millenials and zillenials I see at the fairs. I want to try making florals too. 🧶

Fresh mushrooms from the market for dinner. Just a little butter - mwah! Lion's mane, morrels, cinnamon cap, blue oysters, and lemony somethings.

830am on Canada Day, woken up by gas-powered leaf blowers. Why? They should be banned. Noise pollution, air pollution, environmental....

Setting up for 3 days of humidity that can only be described as Satan's armpit. Good time to try and finish this #crochet bag I've been working on. First sode almost complete. It's all BPdc and FPdc stitches. 🧶

Just got back from a week in Vegas at the #Burlesque Hall of Fame Weekender. One of the highlights for me is the legends panel, listening to their life stories. Such amazing, pioneering women. If you're interested in their history, I recommended picking up the book The League of Exotic Dancers.

Happy Pride Month everyone! 🌈

My first time crocheting a ribbed edging. It's for my distressed sweater. By first time, I mean #crochet not quite right, frog, try to figure the stitches again, frog and finally get the pattern right - now to do the back side! 🧶

Long weekend #crochet. Enjoying the nice weather and finishing off a fringed Boho ruana in Loops & Threads Impressions Tapestry. Loving it! 🧶

Supporting a Canadian business on Etsy - this pin really is the mood. #crochet 🧶

Wonder how long before the BLM mural is gone from Google Maps as well.
