fiber arts & design circle
@scrap-yard.bsky.social
knitting, crocheting, sewing, cross stitch, & all fiber arts for divergent/queer/antifash folks. encouragement, pattern share, help, & community in an art form that isn’t always friendly to marginalized people.
this beautiful never ending scarf looks… familiar. lol maybe 2025 will be the year. for the scarf, not humanity.

if i have to pick, i was a watcher of “nick rocks” as a youth (it was the same as “120 minutes” & i stand on that) so the eponymous album is so important to me, BUT! “john henry” is so special. they never miss. “flood”? a prophecy.

knitting: yep. 2 points make a stitch. keep goin.
latch hooking: yep. take that hook, loop, eventual rug.
crotchet: you have a bent stick & by stabbing the air you have made a 3-D donkey kong cat toy & a skirt. my brain does not… how did..? never mind. all the respect, crocheters that’s cool.
