I don't know who needs to hear this, but
YOU DO NOT NEED TO START A NEW HOBBY!
STEP AWAY FROM THE TEXTILES!
YOU DON'T NEED MORE YARN!
THAT FABRIC IS NOT CALLING TO YOU! LEAVE IT ALONE!

I made this bracelet! I finished it in the car on the way to Saskatoon.
I used the pattern 'mingle cuff' by Laura Nelkin
I want to knit a bunch more and sell them at my work for a children's charity.
What do you guys think?
Would you buy one?
How much?

Someone broke Tumblr with a post that was like "The color of the sky" but it was "The color of Tom Baker's Scarf" and it was screen accurate.

Granny Hexagon Sweater #4
This was the second sweater I made for myself, and probably my favorite to date! I absolutely love everything about how it came out, from the length to the weight of the fabric, to the colors. I didn’t realize how much of my wardrobe was in these blues and mauves until I made this sweater, and I wear it all the time now. It was a super quick make, too, because it’s cropped and my arms are so short that the sleeves took next to no time to finish 😂
This sweater was made with a US size K hook and Caron Jumbo Ombre yarn in Blush and Blue. The cuffs were knitted in a 1x1 rib with US size 8 needles. For the border, I did two rows of single crochet, a row of twisted double crochet, and two more rows of single crochet. I love the way the eyelets in the double crochet echo the spaces in the granny stitch, and I think it’s my favorite sweater border so far!

Listen I am not going to name anyone specifically, but pattern makers need to talk to one (1) fat person before they can post their patterns online.
I am so sick of finding a cute pattern, getting all the supplies, checking my gage, and starting to knit, only to find that my sleeves are a foot longer than a normal human because the pattern maker just multiplied all their numbers by 10 when they sized it up. I can't believe I have to say this but, just because my ass is fat does not mean my arms go down to my knees???

双面三异绣 shuāng miàn sān yì xiù  is a new genre of suzhou double-sided embroidery. It is done on both sides, but the patterns, stitches and colors are different, hence the name 双面三异绣( literally double-sided triple difference embroidery). It enables the viewer to appreciate the image of traditional chinese embroidery art with different patterns, stitches and colors on one embroidery.

not any kind of discourse but if you know how to crochet, knit, or even weave then yoy should look up how to make plarn. its “yarn” made from plastic shopping bags and you can make reusable bags, mats, coasters, drink holders, etc and its a great way to reuse any plastic bags you come in contact with!

Resources for Mending Clothes
Tumblr media
We toss out over 80 pounds of textiles each year. These textiles are often made of plastic materials (polyester, nylon), made in unethical conditions, dyed with harsh dyes that often get put into the rivers, etc. Even a single cotton shirt releases carbon emissions and uses tons of water. 
So the best thing to prevent the unsustainable growth of the fashion industry is to make sure that your clothing lasts as long as possible. To do so, mending clothing is a must. So here are some resources to help you learn how to do various things, such as sewing a button, to tailoring clothes, or even upcycling old clothing into new styles. 
* How to sew on three different types of button
* How to hand sew on a patch on a torn pair of jeans
* How to sew up a hole in an old shirt
* How to sew a simple T-shirt
* How to upcycle old clothing into new clothing
* More upcycle and sewing techniques
* How to repair a damaged sock
* How to do an invisible stitch
* 3 different stitches to work with for different results
* How to make a T-shirt smaller so it fits you better
* How to make repairs to your shoes
These are just a few of the things that you can do in order to make sure that your clothing lasts for a long time. Nobody wants to keep buying new clothing, as it is expensive and wasteful. 
So making alterations to your clothing, or fixing small holes hen you see them can be hugely beneficial to your wallet, to garment workers, and to the environment in the long term.
