Flash the Stash
If you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen some photos I posted after I reorganised my yarn stash. I did this a few weeks ago now, fully intending on making a blog post soon after. But with how stress and parenting and life just gets in the way…I didn’t. I’m trying to get […]
Adventures in dyeing
I’ve finally been able to get back onto my computer – my daughter’s computer has been playing up, so I’ve let her use mine for her games and schoolwork. As I was doing most of my internetting on my phone, and sitting for long periods at the computer hurts, I didn’t mind. But I find […]
Star Trek CAL – Geordi
I’ve fiiiiiiiinally gone back to my Star Trek blanket. Now that all the Christmas crafting is out of the way, I’m able to get my focus back. It has been a really rough few months emotionally (that’s the theme of last year), and I’ve had some issues with sciatica lately, including one trip to the ER […]
Star Trek CAL – Worf
This panel has been a long time in coming, but it is finally done. The last few months have been incredibly hard for me, the last few weeks in particular. Between my daughter’s anxiety and my pain issues/levels, it’s getting harder to juggle working and trying to keep home going smoothly. She is seeing a […]
Hooded capes and WIP
It feels like I’m stuck in an endless loop of WIP that never get finished because I keep starting new things. With all the stress going on lately (due to my pain levels and my daughter’s anxiety), it’s been hard for me to finish things. I have no idea why I do that, but losing […]
Scarves and stress relief
Two posts in one night! I thought about waiting until tomorrow to post this one, but I’d rather get it done before I forget. A few weeks ago, A Yarny Robin had a yarn giveaway for her two year anniversary, and I was the winner! She sent me this lovely, sparkly, alpaca yarn from Louisa Harding. […]
Pink Pineapples and Pokemon
About a year ago my daughter decided she liked pineapples. She already liked them to eat, but now she liked them as decoration.She started planning her ultimate dream home by the beach, with pineapple figurines and pineapple patterns on pretty much everything. But in a tasteful way, of course. There isn’t too much in the way […]
Easy like Sunday morning
It has been a rough, rough week. I’ve had a lot of pain earlier in the week, thanks to twisting my knee more than it wanted to (or should) go, and then a lot of parenting stress as we continue to work through my daughter’s anxiety issues. I didn’t feel like trying to follow a […]
Star Trek CAL – Beverly Crusher
I’m still reeling from the Outlander season 2 finale right now, so I thought it would be a good time to get this post out. I had to wait for my daughter to go bed before I could watch it, as So-Ho changed the time it aired from 8:30 to 7:30, which bugged me greatly. […]
Simple slippers
This falls under the “ish” part of Nerdish delights. Winter is here and my daughter’s feet turn into icicles. Though she delights in torturing me with them, I had to do something about it. I found this pattern for quickie slippers and had her choose the yarn. I did have to redo them a few times, as […]
