☀️ [IMPORTANT NEWS] ☀️

First of all, thank you so much for your incredibly kind words about my new Vegetable Patch pattern released this Friday! 🥕🍄 I can’t even express how happy I am to read all your sweetest comments and see your amazing reactions to this new Mini Kingdom 👑 location and its characters — it truly means the world to me!

Creating this pattern took much more time than I originally expected, and most of that time went into designing the Vegetable Patch itself. It was a challenging but incredibly fun process, and I’m so proud of how it turned out! Now I can’t wait to see how you bring it to life in your own way! 😍

As I mentioned in the release post, this launch was a little special. Along with the main Vegetable Patch set, I also released two standalone patterns — one for the Mushroom Gnome and one for the Vegetable Patch alone.

When I first started making themed sets (like holiday or location-based patterns), I always intended them to be economy bundles — and they will stay that way. But going forward, my new releases will often include both main sets and separate pattern options, giving you more flexibility to get exactly what you want! 😊

And here’s more good news — some of my previous pattern sets will also get standalone versions! 🥳 I already have a list of most-requested characters, and if there’s someone you’d love to see released separately, just let me know in the comments, messages, or any way you prefer. I’ll be keeping track, and once a character hits a certain number of requests, I’ll make sure their pattern gets released individually! 🤗

Thank you again for your support and love — it keeps me going every day! 💛💙

I’ve never shared my needle felting on tumblr before but I’m super proud of my latest sculpture!

So, a few weeks ago I had knitted this pullover. I am pritty proud of it, given, that is was my first one and the first time I did colourwork.

Especially the chocobos!

After preparing food on a fire, pictured above, it stank of smoke, though.

So, I thought: Just let it air out. It is wool. It is not supposed to be washed. (I was right)

But it kept stinking of smoke.

So... i decided to wash it after all.

Our washing mashine has a wool setting.

The result was this:

It grew to about double its sice!

So I thought: if i put it in in cotton mode... it might fit again.

Result: it... didn't

When people are explaining how to weave in ends, in a tutorial or any video, and they say to "just follow the path of the yarn" or "double the stitches" and then proceed to do THIS

That's a valid way to weave in your ends, assuming your yarn is wooly enough to not slip and it won't be super visible, but that's simply not what you've described.

🖤💜 Happy international asexuality day! 🖤💜🐀

Note: You don't have to know how to make anything fancy. Just do you know the basics well enough to at least get started?

- laughably incorrect, just flinging yarn around

- knitting the most basic scarf incredibly slowly because the actor Learned How To Do It For The Role

- old lady actresses casually knitting an intricate lace pattern while doing a monologue

1. that’s a garter stitch, which you can clearly see despite it being made of clay

2. they took the time to animate a modified continental style of knitting, including showing how his working yarn is wrapped around his pinky, and that he’s flicking with his index on his right hand
