My first ever (complete, lol) pair of knitting needles were US 9 straight needles made of bamboo. Because they were my ONLY needles for so long, the needles actually started to curve to the shape of my hands! The older I got, the more nervous I was about breaking and/or losing these needles, since they mean so much to me.
So I officially retired them and got a tattoo in their honor!

YOYLEBERRY
---
Yoyleberry is a character based on various character.ai chats. She seemed like the perfect character to be the SpiritGuru equivalent of Karen from SMG4, and guess who the kids are?
Half Yoyleberry and half Dream Berry kids.
Sparkle - Katie, Gleam - Zack, Lucid - Cory
~~~
GUMY, SQUASH, AND KNEEDLE
---
OCs from object show OC generators - two of them. Gumy is from the first, Squash and Knitting Needle are from the second.
Gumy is an unexpected character - an insect-like partially eaten piece of bubblegum. Ze is persuasive, but ze keep the reason why - along with many other things - to hirself. They have a lot of things that they keep secret; those things are speculated to be the reason why he is very erratic. He also smells like rain and has a grating voice with an Australian accent.
Squash is not the best to be around. He can make some miracles happen, but he is very unpleasant and rude to others, including his former teammates. He is also very gullible, so that's no surprise, and it's pretty easy to manipulate him - possibly the cause of his personality.
Knitting Needle is someone who is wealthy and doesn't take being pushed around lightly - she is determined to take revenge on those who use them even if they started the problem. He is someone who will force karma on anyone if he feels someone hasn't received it yet. And that results in trouble.

You! Internalize that you do not always need to "improve your art/craft" now! It's great to learn and develop your skills, but you do not need to come from a place of hating where you are now! You certainly do not need to force yourself to improve if it is coming in between you and enjoying the things you do. Improvement for improvements sake does not have to be the only goal, nor the only one that "should matter"
You are allowed to have motifs, enjoyment, ameturism, and "less skill." Kill and devour the capitalist in your head that dictates that you must always improve for everybody else's sake and your "productivity."

Miles: "You know archaic Latin?"
Hobie: "I got bored with classical Latin."
Gwen: "You know normal Latin?"
Hobie: "Yeah, someone from my knitting club taught me."
Pavitr excitedly: "YOU HAVE A KNITTING CLUB?!"
Hobie: "You guys don't know everything about me. Now, do you guys want a sweater or a scarf?"

that romance trope where one character teaches another character how to use a bow and arrow or a rifle or something except it's teaching someone how to knit

Hello everyone needs to look at the sheep I just needle felted onto my gloves
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The bodies are just some random white locks I had nearby which were suitably soft and fluffy (the pink sheep was avocado dyed debouillet again). The legs and horns are some black wool I spun bc I couldn't felt them small enough, so I just spun a quick 2 ply and embroidered them on. The faces are also embroidery with the handspun black wool--just some French knots. Was happy to find I still remember how to do them.
The gloves are kinda old and my work gloves so they're not in very good shape, but I'm not ready to make another pair. They started as badly washed Suffolk fleece which I dyed with horse chestnut hulls, carded into rolags, spun into a 2 ply, and knit into gloves using a self drafted pattern.
I'm very happy with the outcome :3

calling all fiber crafters!!
i've been having Thoughts™ about creativity and crafting and art and artisanship and skill, and i'm curious about what the rest of y'all think, so please have this poll:
The yes/no/sometimes/NUANCE is in direct answer to the "Do you feel creative" part of the question; the stuff after the semicolon is just a General Statement of How You Generally Craft. (full disclosure: i knit, so i think in terms of patterns, but if you partake in another fiber craft and there's a better word for "following someone else's design/instructions," insert that there instead!)
~feeling creative~ is defined however you want it to be. (this is why i'm asking the internet at large this in poll form--i'm trying to untangle some of my own thoughts about what makes me feel creative, and what that looks like across my life/hobbies.) if you'd like to elaborate in reblogs/tags/replies, please do!
assumptions i made with these options: if you design your own patterns, you probably also have done quite a bit of making other people's patterns. if you mostly follow someone else's patterns, you may have dabbled in trying your own, but not enough to feel like you're qualified to claim "pattern designer" (hi, it me). please answer with your heart regardless! you can explain as much or as little as you'd like, i'm just after General Trends and Vibes, here!
please reblog! i want to hear from as many people as are willing to play!! thanks y'all!!!
