Orcane from Rivals of Aether 2 as one of those goofy fish beanies. I had the idea and my ADHD would NOT let go. This is the first time I've made something this ambitious without a pattern.

Pullover sweater wip

Made from the same yarn as the temperature blanket. I modified the Red Heart Father pullover from Yarnspirations. My brother is long and skinny so mediums are too short and large is too wide.

I've been calling this the butthole yarn. The colors are lovely but... hole....

I have plenty of leftovers from my temp blanket, so i made a hat in the KC Chiefs colors for a nephew who loves them.

2 years later, I'm finally done with my temperature blanket. This is only 38 weeks, when my niece was born. I wanted it to be her 1st birthday present, but maybe it'll just be a "your aunt is thinking of you" random gift lolll

I won Yarn Chicken, but now i have to sew the two parts together. I'll have to measure the length of this when I'm done bc it's already so massive and unwieldy

I'm down to my last skein of Big Twist purple. Pray for me because if i fuck up this game of yarn chicken, it's so over

Time for the long haul (it's just purple all the way down

This temperature blanket is already so massive but I just started the stitches in July. Not for this year, but 2 years ago, for somewhere else.

Figured it out, the problem is I'm stupid and kept threading the needle backwards

I can sew now!

Good news, they both live! Bad news, i don't know what I'm doing.

Also the Bernette doesnt have a presser foot and they can't share like good sisters.

Technically, I own 2 sewing machines.

Somehow I don't have the power cord or pedal for either of them. The Singer did come with more accessories.

Ty for the tips! I never considered interfacing, but I'm a little hesitant to apply heat to this fabric (95% viscose). I'm thinking that I *can*, at least, hem the edges, but i will have to hand-stitch the crochet on.

Can't sleep so i thought harder about the logistics and i don't think I'll be able to machine sew..

Cera @witchcraftcrochet.bsky.social · Jun 20

Ty! I considered crocheting through the fabric but i don't think this 95% viscose will like having raw edges or little holes, so I will need to seam rip, hem and sew.

I also considered eyelets but something tells me the fabric would hate that too lol

Extending a pair of bell bottoms i just bought with crochet spider webs. Decided to add a waistband extender. My idea is ambitious bc its gonna require the use of a sewing machine, of which i own 2 but don't know if they work lol

Concept sketch of black bell bottom pants, with an open side all the way down the leg. Spider web designs make up the open panel.

Black cotton crochet. A pair of rectangular pieces to extend the waistband of the pants, and 4 spiderweb pieces piled on top of each other.

Beetlejuice themed leg warmers. They don't like to stay above my knees, so i have them pinched together using a bobby pin.

After much pussyfooting, I'm finally using this fucking Ferrari of yarns i bought some time ago bc i was suckered in by the gorgeous colors and colorway name (Witch's Brew) from a cute local yarn/tea shop. I intend to make arm warmers but we'll see where this goes.

Every time i see a Joanns my heart hurts a little. Fuck hobby lobby and michaels yarn is so expensive. Why must all the things i love die (or be so fucking expensive)

38% on my temperature blanket. I've been working on it for more than a year, ripping it up several times to change the stitch pattern, colors, and fix newbie mistakes.

Crochet doggy bag holders. Making a bunch for the volunteers and staff at the animal shelter.

Crocheted myself a new lotion holster with project leftovers. Cotton yarn was best for this project. My normal holster has a tag that keeps making noise as I move and I'm extremely over it. This one is much softer and I can throw it in the wash.
