Looking for yarn shops that focus on sustainability or are owned by/support LGBTQIA+ or Black/Asian/Indian/Pakistani groups etc. in the UK? Searches under LGBTQ are mostly being up pre-made items.
My current favourite Knit With Attitude doesn't stock quite what I am looking for and I have an experimental crochet bombing project I want to complete.
(Do need to check gauge more often when I measured them they were not the size they were meant to be) #knitting #donate #crochet #fibreartsToday's impulse buy at the thrift store was this wooden doodad that I'm assuming has something to with spinning wool, though I'm not entirely sure. Is it a weird looking spindle? Something else? Any ideas?
Edit: several people have suggested a phang spindle (yay, new word!), which seems very likely. And know I have a name to do more research.
I woke this morning wanting to #embroider on washable cloth #mask s: | Je me suis réveillé ce matin en voulant #broder des #masque s en tissu :
* My Other Mask is a Disposable KN99 | Mon autre masque est un KN99 jetable
* Ton sourire est magnifique ! | Your smile is beautiful!
* Not-masking is weird. | Démasquer est bizarre.
* A sailboat logo | Un logo de voilier
* Un élément art déco | Something art deco

Oh no!
You could sew one, or knit one, probably basket-weave one… Not sure about pottery, but definitely tin work and wood working!
There are probably a thousand #maker ways to do this!
but that crocheted one looks pretty cool!

That time I tried to recreate Parkhouse Hill & Chrome Hill in #wool
Fun fact: The walk over these 2 limestone reef knolls is known as the Dragon's Back ridge.
Just finished filling a wet felted vessel with Easter treats for my grown up kid and their gf!
I felted this one on an egg shaped resist and cut off the top bit to make the lid. The little egg on top is needle felted and then wet felted.
Another colourful rabbit! I wet felted the “shells” of two rabbits at the same time with this lovely short fibre Kap Merino…it’s just taken me a little while to finish the second one. After stuffing, I needle felted the rabbit’s features, clothes, and carrot 🥕
Wet felted springtime! My aunt visited this past weekend, and it was such a delight to do some felting together. I was trying to keep my design loose, more of a pattern than a portrait.
I made a rabbit! It’s my first #felted stuffed animal. The body is wet felted all in one piece, and the details are needle felted.
Vegetables not to scale. They’re made to fit in the pocket 😄
