De-stashing my yarn. Probably 6 years of slowly collecting 🧶 here and I so far have separated over half out to “donate” to my friends. Will put anything they don’t take in a no-buy group first. I just know I can’t knit or crochet my way out of this.
My kitten has been LOVING exploring the piles.

An update on the crochet blanket I made my mom! Totally forgot to show it when I got pictures but she was STOKED and loves how long it was! And I was able to fix my little gremlin’s “addition” to it with a patch that matches her rug! Best part is the yarn 🧶 I chose matches her furniture perfectly!

Kudos to the Dunkin employee that boxed my munchkins. I almost didn’t want to eat them, they’re so neatly packaged!

A VERY exciting #NSV
This ring set (size 5) on my pinky FINALLY fits again. My husband got them for me our first year together and I previously wore them on my ring finger - now a size 7.
Yes I know my other rings are barely on. We don’t need to talk about that 😅

Seven mice have been made upon this day.
Many more mice must be crafted.

Today, I craft many mice.

Having a great time crocheting these mice for bag charms and ornaments for some coworkers!
It’s a great way to use up scrap yarn, too! Longer pieces go in the sweaters, shorter pieces are used as stuffing!

A very STINKY BABY decided she wanted to leave “creative feedback” on the blanket for my mom and ATE A HOLE IN IT.
She said “let me show grandma I love her” and ate some 🧶
Now I will need to fix the hole and crochet some cool mid-mod patch and fix it.

Rich in life because I wake up to kitty cuddles every single morning 🥰🐱

Not sure how well this shows the scale but this blanket nearly covers the length of the couch - a double recliner couch.
I fear showing it off will be a challenge 🧶🎀🧶🎀

Crochet pattern is the Ribbon Canyon Blanket. I used 5 colors across 15 rows.

Good evening. I am here, relaxing, blessing my human with my presence and yet she is UNGRATEFUL. Tried to pull soft out from under me. Says she needs me off it to “crochet effectively.” I slapped her. That will show her

That dark blue meeting in the middle means I am on the FINAL STRETCH for this blanket for my mom!
Crochet ribbon canyon blanket - 15 rows (and a foundation), each row is 1600 stitches, roughly. 1.5 skeins of each color 🧶

I AM ON THE FINAL ROW.
(Also check out who won yarn chicken 🐔)

Decided to crochet myself some fingerless gloves and I’ve determined that they are only good for making me look like an extra from RENT.
Seriously, what’s the point??
Next project, mittens.

But hey, the yarn is soft and pretty 🧶

Tangle’s too sleepy to attack my yarn while I crochet 🧶

I win, small demon!!

FINAL COLOR 🧶
LESS THAN THREE ROWS LEFT

…and then attaching ribbons, weaving in ends, blocking, fringe maybe.

So ready to be done with this blanket.
Each row is 1600-ish stitches.

My leg is painfully asleep but I cannot move. She is too cute.

First order from KnitPicks not going great. Ordered a chunky weight yarn from a different line in a dark grey - got this sport weight in “ice pop”

It’s a little hard to reach out to their customer service line so I’m hoping they monitor that inbox. Shame I won’t be able to make my gift on time.

Working on my mother’s gift 🧶. Was VERY worried about the color choices before the blue was added, but I am very happy now!
