Next Granny Square for #BookBlanket2026 : The Blue Bar by Damyanti Biswas 💙📚🧶

I already had this shiny yarn (metallico from Hobbii) and thought it was perfect to reflect the sequins on the cover that are also so central to this noir mystery

Second try on the Pretty Simple Crochet Headband by Rhelena (Crochet N Crafts) was a success! Did the full 70 base, with Fsc instead of chaining, and it was perfect! Also added a final row of sc. Now I have 2 usable headbands for work! 💙🧶

Next Granny Square for #BookBlanket2026 : The Prophets By Robert Jones, Jr. This book was so amazing and poetic and heartbreaking, no granny square could ever do it justice. I did what I could with the cover and my limited skills. 💙📚🧶

It’s bad enough how many losses there have been in federal jobs, but the private sector should be ashamed of itself for being complicit in this process.

This is how I store my poss scarf when not in use. I fold it gently and tuck it safely into my beanie so it can feel warm and safe.

Nothing like wearing your own crochet creations

Cw: death, grief, loss

This time of year always sneaks up on me. I don't catch it until I realize I'm always on the verge of weeping.

For context: my birthday is 1/22. The anniversary of my youngest brother's death is 1/25.

I would rather skip the back half of January and skip right to February.

Finished this second headband (Pretty Simple #Crochet Headband Pattern By Rhelena/Crochet n Crafts)

Unfortunately I was so paranoid it would be too big that I over adjusted and made it a bit small, will need to make another. Now I have to find someone with a smaller head to gift it to 🤣 🧶

To the "civility" people, saying the word "fuck" is violence, but the cops shooting tear gas is "peace keeping", ripping a parent from their children is "doing their job". They want to control the definition of violence and their monopoly on the use of it.
