@kristenrapp @lemmy_stitch This is a new one on me. Marking my calendar right now! ๐Ÿ˜„

 

Pour one out for possibly my oldest cross stitch needle.

RIP.

@utopify_org @ConfusedOrder I do wish we could get the full text, it's weird that comments show up fine but the OP is always just a link. Maybe one day I'll learn enough about how Lemmy works to put in a pull request, but it is not this day!

@ConfusedOrder @utopify_org Hah, I stumbled across this convo on Mastodon side and can see the issue. Basically for whatever reason, the original post is missing from this thread when viewed in Mastodon. Hence the confusion!

Your top-level comment looks like it's a standalone post rather than a reply, because the OP isn't there. But it looks different to all the other "posts", because it's not one!

Isn't techology fun ๐Ÿ˜‚

@sortofblue Thank you! It really was ๐Ÿ˜€

@Mickey Thank you! Now to pick out another one from the same designer as my reward ๐Ÿ˜†

 

After 8 years lusting over this pattern, Garden Cat is finally complete!

This was the first pattern I ever really had my eye on when I was just a newbling, and now after restarting it last year, it's done. I'm so happy, and as you can see way too overexcited to iron it properly before posting.

p.s. people on Lemmy this post has two pics attached so let's see how those display (if at all) on your side. Yay science!

Almost forgot to actually post my completed #macrame project from last week, but here we go!

I am very proud of this for a first attempt, especially considering the kit and instructions weren't great.

Definitely want to do a lot more of this, I suspect most of my friends will be getting macrame'd Christmas gifts this year!

@lemmy_stitch Eight hour update! Averaging 171sts an hour which isn't bad considering we're also marathoning Futurama at the same time and we accidentally watched Jurassic Bark ๐Ÿ˜ญ

#CrossStitch #24HoursOfCrossStitch

 

24HOCS starting point!

I've decided to work on my full coverage project for #24HoursOfCrossStitch, as this one hasn't had any love for a couple weeks so it'll feel good to get some progress.

Of course, at 2 over 1 on 28ct fabric, 24 hours is often less visible progress than you might think ๐Ÿ˜…

The pattern is "Autumn Stories" from Paine Free Crafts, and for reference I'm currently at 25.26% complete!

Good luck to anyone else taking part. I believe in you!

#CrossStitch #24HOCS @lemmy_stitch

 

Who's gearing up for 24 Hours of Cross Stitch this weekend?

For once I've actually remembered its happening, so to celebrate maybe I'll actually take part! Not sure I can really manage 24 whole hours but maybe if I make it a long weekend and fudge the numbers slightly ๐Ÿ˜…

Only problem is I'm supposed to be #sewing this weekend as well...hmm this is gonna be a busy few days!

Who else is in?

@Whitehorse @cicatrized Oh bless! Haha I can just picture the moment she realised what was wrong.

My husband is left-handed too but when I taught him, we decided to try him the right-handed way round first just in case he could manage that since it would make it easier for him to follow other tutorials. Thankfully it worked out fine!

Do you still crochet exclusively left-handed or did you find you became more ambidextrous over time?

@joeo10 @crochet Thanks ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿคž๐Ÿคž

 

Crochet crop top update!

Last update: https://lemm.ee/post/110769

By popular demand it is *officially* now a #crochet crop top not a tunic. Took a photo just now to commemorate how it looks before blocking, because I have a horrible feeling about this.

The sleeves currently hang a bit weird, pre-blocking, but I remember that happened last time I made this pattern too so not too worried about that. I *am* a bit worried it'll grow uncontrollably and no longer be cropped.

Wish me luck!
