Made a snake! Seemed like a good way to learn knitting basics. Made up the pattern as I went along (I mean it's a tube lol). It's not perfect but a decent lumpy derp noodle lol XD

Been trying to teach myself to knit because why not. I'm not good at it, but who cares XD

Absolute gaggle of morons (yes yes I mostly play hunters, I know, they're fun /sob)

I don't have a problem honest.
Currently crocheting madly to take my mind off getting a port inserted and restarting chemo next week, or possibly not, because all my appointments clash with each other. Not a clue at this point. Tomorrow more phonecalls. x.x

Still plugging along here. Nothing really to report other than sitting around waiting for biopsy results. But here, have a fish pattern I finally got around to finishing up!

Fishy fish. Working on an intelligable pattern at the moment. Gotta minimise the fiddly-ness! One thing I'm learning is I seem to have a high tolerance for fiddling about, and when the pattern is no-sew there's a lot of that.

Also I just uploaded another crochet pattern if anyone wants a go at it. Chubby borbs this time

I should probably start sharing some of these little no-sew crochet patterns. So if anyone wants to make a little worry wyrm, here's the pdf on ravelry: ravel.me/worry-wyrm-d...
I've already shared it on a fb crochet group i'm in, it's been tested and works out, so here you go! :)

Working on a dragon pattern based on those worry worm fidget thingies. I guess you'd call it a worry wyrm?

Wishing everyone a happy holiday for tomorrow, whatever you celebrate, or a nice monday if you don't <3

*adds to build a bear hoard*
Come on, I had to

Here's what I've been working on lately, a no sew/one piece flying bird pattern. Plain coloured ones are easier but I wanna make a pile of christmas robins now to gift...

Some (slightly) better photos of the derpy little dragon
November 20, 2023 at 1:04 PM
Terrible photos (hello darkness my old friend), will take better ones tomorrow, but I've been ripping out and redoing this for days trying to get the shape right. Chubby no-sew flying dragon!

Home from mini holiday, knackered and gonna have to explain to the doc why i'm limping tomorrow (leg muscles hate me) but it was worth it. The weather was kind to us, hotel was nice, I left some crochet things around and even managed to find a couple of fossils.

Going to the coast for a couple of days tomorrow. I'm assuming I'm be back on chemo in the next week or so so we're making the most of it.
I've been making lots of little birds and fish so I'll be releasing a few into the wild while there... :p

Still in the mood for making Tiny things, so here's a little goldfish. This was a bit of a challenging pattern to work out as it's all one piece, no separate bits or sewing at all.

Tiny little no-sew bird. About a third the size of my other bird pattern.
I just wanted a quick and simple pattern to use up scraps and odd ends of wool with.

Prototype cat!
More of a simple variation on the bear than the last version, which was edging towards 'dodgy bulldog' and had a lot of thread sculpting. The ears and tail are doing a lot of heavy lifting but hopefully it still registers as a cat lol
October 29, 2023 at 1:04 PM
One more bear. Bit of a banana, so his name is Eric (if you know you know).
I think I'll work on cats next...
October 24, 2023 at 3:04 PM
Pink panda!

Prototype (speckly), final pattern (blue/pink), colour chart tester (brown).
All with individually wonky faces of course. I'm embracing it XD
