The Crafty Queer

This pattern was pretty tricky to work out but I love it ❤️

June’s Patreon patterns just dropped! It’s $3 to get one or more patterns dropped straight in your inbox each month. Only $15 to get access to my whole Patreon library, which is getting pretty big at this point. Join us!

This time around there’s one cross stitch pattern as well as my very first blackwork pattern! These will go up in my Etsy shop in roughly two weeks (or whenever I remember) so favorite my shop to be notified when new things appear.

Like “There are three twisted stitches on the shoulder of this sweater”

Or “I accidentally picked up an extra stitch on the gusset of the left sock”

Hey!! Did I get your attention? 🤪 good ⠀

I would like to introduce you to “The Good Trouble Cowl” designed by Karen Clements

⠀

Karen reached out to me and shared a story that instantly made me know I had to get involved. The fear of taking a risk at publicly speaking up against racism. The sole purpose of this Cowl is to support the work of Black Lives Matter in Jefferson County WA! This is the epitome of stand in the gap ✊🏾 ⠀

⠀

This is a small rural community so you can imagine the Black community, which is severely underrepresented, could use your help. This cowl is available by donation only starting as low as $5. ⠀

I already gave my heart, my smile and $25. If you would like to make a cowl AND help the BLM community, click the link Thanks 🤗

Karen said she was inspired by the following words ⠀

“Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Our struggle is not the struggle of a day, a week, a month or a year, it is the struggle of a lifetime. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble.”⠀

Maybe after she stabbed him with a knitting needle.

can you even imagine his thoughts on crocheting?
