Cross Stitch!

Updated just now with new hand sewing resources (mainly buttonholes) and textbook pdfs on fashion history, fashion illustration, and thinking through designs!

when i was new to knitting, i remember being too shy to reach out to more experienced knitters bc omg they’re going to see how clueless and new and bad at this i am and look, i know i’m not the best knitter in the world, but if there are any new knitters out there who feel too intimidated to reach out to me for anything (advice, help, show off the thing you’re proud of) please know that i have been where you are, and am here now as your super supportive knitting elder who will be so happy to see how far you’ve come, or to help you figure out what’s not working, or to give advice or encouragement as needed or really anything else i can do for you bc knitting is that wonderful to me and i just really want you to have a good time doing it too!

Cross stitch or crochet (though I am a beginner on crochet myself) for me! I know my posting is super erratic but if I see a message or post for someone I always look at it and respond as soon as I can.

The colors on this are gorgeous ❤️

Hexagon love ❤️ I like this joining with a different color! Both my blankets right now are using joins with a color within the blanket (and I might’ve done this instead if I saw this before I started!)

I do cross stitch and crochet, not sure if that counts!

heck as a cross stitcher the worst thing is to be sitting on your bed after working on a project and then ur heart just stops beating for a sec and you ask yourself “where did my needle go?”

Reblogging because I posted this super early since I was so excited about finishing. I’ve already started the lower-left page since this pic was taken 😆

These colors are so beautiful!
