Ooh, look! I made a thing!

A mini "squirrel cage" swift perfect sized for standard #embroidery #floss #skeins for pairing with the floss winder I just published!

Currently functional, but my brain has gotten filled up with possible refinements (mainly from handling it and using the current version)

Finally managed to actually finish a #friendshipbracelet while trying out the fairly simple candy wave pattern. Please ignore the clashing colors as I just used a few random scraps of #embroideryfloss.

Discovered alphas and had to try it out. You can make some very cool looking bracelets, etc. with this technique and it hits the nostalgia feels if you grew up with #lowpixels games.

So far I am just practicing getting the knots even and changing colors, but I hope to be able to make something nice looking soon (the spouse already ordered a Pacman #friendshipbracelet ).

I find this flatlay so aesthetically pleasing. The gradient of colours just makes my brain happy 🌈

Husband made me 50 floss drops out of spare MDF he had laying around. It took forever to get the thread on them all. The DMC number stickers arrive tomorrow, and then I can get rid of the little tags. I'm really happy with how they turned out. They are small (about 1.5" square), lightweight, and have a smaller hole for the little leftover bits that might be useful for confetti stitches or shorter runs.

How did this happen? Who even am I? I've heard of chicken math, but I didn't expect the same principals in floss math.
It was just supposed to be a short term hobby to get me through my hysterectomy recovery boredom...

In my craft goblin element tonight, making a mess all over the floor with DIY floss drops while trying to keep up with all the whinging in the #TOTP feed on my other account!

Been procrastinating this for a while but after a few more skeins got delivered yesterday I think it's finally time.

I...may be a while.

This took ALL DAY.

But it is in numerical order, and I'll never have to do it again.
