This morning's project/test is a six strand skjoldehamn braid with 4 threads per strand for bulk.

The goal is trim testing for tunics. This pattern is taken from the Skjoldehamn find, with instructions from Wyrd Kindred. Will be tossing this in the wash on hot to see how it shrinks on the recommendation of ye tumblr SCAdia hive mind. 19 inches at start

Hottest setting inside of a delicate bag. Lost almost 2 inches but holy crap look at those ends! @sca-nerd Update: I'm not sure if this is a good idea to use on the linen tunics. I think I'll limit this to my hand wash items only.

We still don't have a name but he's pretty settled in now, enough to play with my wool when I'm trying to crochet (it's okay he's helping) (he's not but he's cute so I'll let it slide)

#Bittybones #He likes the wool which is good because we can bounce crafting puns back and forth #Coming up with names is hard how do pregnant people do this #For now I've just been saying 'bud' when we talk cause that's what I call everybody #But we'll think of something better #And if he ever gets out of my craft supplies I will try to make him a lil blanket or something for winter

Wool coats are literally the best inventions in the world. Standing in a cold, wet field for 3 days and I’m unbothered, I’m dry, I’m comfy. I live next to the sea and around this time of year the weather gets Wild. Besides the ocean spray, the mist from the river, there’s hale, pelting rain and chronic Dampness. But when I’m in my big Navy peacoat, I’m untouchable. Comfy, warm, it’s 20lbs, dries easily and the best invention ever

#which just leaves my legs to be completely soaked…. #I wish my wool suit fit my bottom half #wool blazer coat AND trousers #but alas. i must deal with Cold Leg Syndrome forever #it IS an old navy coat actually #American but STILL! #it’s extremely comfy #it’s like wearing a weighted blanket #it’s only about 10 degrees rn #and the rains haven’t REALLY gotten serious yet #maybe mid or late october #November will be wool all day season though #BRING BACK WOOL COATS

Doing my first proper big crochet project. I've done a big square for my sister and a bookmark but I'm doing a blanket. No pattern just do a chain of how long you want it, I did it about 2 foot, then turn it around and do a stitch you’re comfortable with (the lady at the wool shop's advice not mine).

I'm getting such a sense of euphoria. I'm making a thing! I made that!

#i would appreciate any tips to help the wip blanket stop getting tangled in my working wool #crochet

any tips for getting into knitting? I tried knitting a scarf once and finished it, but dropped off after that. I find it very intimidating to try anything more interesting like a sweater

hi anon! i love this question! a scarf was my first project too, and it's a great first project, but tbh a scarf is kind of boring to do. I recommend doing a project like a hat or a blanket to dip your toe into knitting in the round.

i am working on my first ever sweater so I won't pretend to be an expert but i find knitting in the round, with needles connected by a cable, much more enjoyable than knitting flat (though you can knit everything flat), and you can also just turn the work over and over again while using a circular needle set to work a big project. after I made my scarf I made this blanket (here's the free pattern) using one long circular needle. It was interesting because it requires lots of different stitches, so you learn a lot and it looks fancy but it's still relatively easy, and it's the perfect time of year to make a blanket. it also knits up fast because it's super bulky so it doesn't take very long :) here's my blanket!

a hat is also fun and i promise it is pretty easy! all you need to know is how to cast on and how to join your stitches together without twisting the cast on (here's a good example). hats knit up pretty fast, i finished this hat in a few days. here's a free and popular basic pattern for a hat.

the good thing about knitting is that it has a ton of built in community. go to any yarn store and you will find knitters just hanging out, happy to help you with a project or trade techniques. Ravelry is a great resource for finding patterns or help. I love tincanknits for their designs and their tutorials. there is a lot of help online. I can post some of my favorite resource blogs for knitting help. knitting is also very social, you can knit while chatting with friends, you can knit on skype, you can go to knitting circles (my local pub has a knitting circle sunday nights).

at the end of the day, knitting means that you have to let go of perfectionism because it's so common to start a new project and have to learn new skills to finish that project. eventually as you learn how knitting works you learn that mistakes are a) part of it b) easily fixable c) won't hold you back from enjoying the end result. my blanket has a ton of mistakes because i am a beginner knitter but we still use it every day and i still like how it looks. it works out.

happy knitting <3

#answered #anonymous #knitting #i knit my blanket while on leave from work and being in a bad place mentally #since i wasn't working it took me about 6 weeks and i listened to an audio book and then watched a few seasons of teen wolf while knitting #truly the audio book + knitting experience? unparalleled. #the other thing about knitting is that you don't need the fanciest most expensive materials or tools to make something #i used joann's wooden needles and on sale wool to make my blanket #BUT if you DO have the money i recommend chiaogoo's stainless steel needles and wool yarn.

moving on from crocheting chickens as default self-soothing activity to crocheting granny squares

#I’m using leftover wool yarn from my moms old projects #before she developed a wool allergy #so it’s just a quarter skein of different tweeds #and I’m genuinely enjoying churning out square after square #maybe I’ll have enough for a blanket #and I can keep it in the car
