New charms for The Summer Hikaru Died! I finished the first season of the anime a couple of weeks ago and I loved it. It was so strange and dark but lovely. Very weird, which is right up my alley. 😂

One of my favorite things is finding cool charms and making them into cool things. I thought these unicorn skeletons were so unusual and weirdly pretty, and I knew I wanted to make them into earrings.

This is one of my favorite patterns! The two colors make it super quick and fun to put together, and I love how it looks. I used the add-on tote pattern for this, too.

Front and back of the jack o' lantern pattern. You can definitely tie off ends and make the backs cleaner for totes or blankets, but for tapestries, I kind of like seeing the yarn carries.

I made this bracelet on a whim, and it's become one of my better sellers, which makes me very happy! Like most of my bracelets, you can also get it as an anklet.

October, finally! My favorite month of the year! At some point in the middle of the month, our AZ temps will abruptly go from mid-90s to 60s and 70s, and I'm so ready.

Okay, Yu Yu Hakusho fans, here's the real question--Hiei and Kurama or Hiei and Mukuro?

Cryptid of the week! The Jersey Devil is such a fascinating piece of folklore. I've always found it to be kind of a pitiable creature with a sad backstory.

Drawing is from the Evening Bulletin Philadelphia, January 21, 1909.

This little bag was the first tote I ever made with my tapestry patterns! If I did it today, I'd change the handles. Otherwise, I love the size and how it looks!

Something a little different today! I go to a ton of cons and markets, and I've picked up some amazing art and met some incredible, talented people, so I wanted to show off some of that! Zelda and FMA are by coffeecakey, MHA and AoT by Tenzan Studio, Viridian City by VsArt404, Kanto by KnerdKraft.

Some of my favorite bag/phone charms are these little beaded dango. They're super lightweight and super cute! This particular one is in the trans flag colors, and you can find it under my pride dango listing on Etsy.

I love this scarf pattern--it's cute and easy and works up quickly. It's a dense scarf, so it's cozy, but it's pretty narrow, so it's versatile.

This week's cryptid is Dogman. Dogman, distinct from a werewolf, was made famous by Linda Godfrey, who went on to be a pioneer in cryptid research.

Art is a Scandinavian depiction of a wolf warrior from 540-790 AD.

I don't know about you, but I'm sort of obsessed with Kaiju No. 8 right now. I recently rewatched the first season and fell in love with the characters all over again, and now we get season 2 with Gen, and I'm so into it!

My lovely peeps, I'm super close to breaking my monthly sales record! This is such a confidence and moral booster for me--thank you! In thanks (and in hopes of crossing that goal line,) I'm doing a flash sale today only!

Cow abduction! 🙄 I used a multi-colored yarn for this, and I love how it came out. The pattern really only calls for two colors, so you can hide one color when you're not using it and make a piece that's reversible.

Woot woot, new bag charms! Vash the Stampede or just Vash for a more subtle keychain/phone charm/zipper pull. Both have little love & peace charms--a key part of the OG series that was missing from Trigun Stampede. 🙄

Let's talk anime/manga again today! What are your top 3 tear-jerker anime/manga? These are mine, I think. I know, Grave of the Fireflies isn't on there. I'm the only person on the planet who didn't like it. But these three get me every time.

I see so much hate for the magic circle. But... why? It makes it so easy to make things! One of the first bits of crochet advice I heard was not to tighten the circle completely until after the first row on top of it--then you can pull the loose string--and that's always worked well for me. 🧶

Summer is inching towards fall, and I know in some parts of the US and around the world, the cicadas are out in full force! I loved designing these for a cicada enthusiast customer.
