Cashmere warp now on the little loom - ULA+LIA kickstarter a few years back.

Modified and fixed loom - replacement back brake pawl is installed and those nasty plastic ties are gone, texsolv cord instead. Sheets of A4 kraft paper and paper towel rolls used instead of the nasty cardboard strips. Now to find some threading energy.

The non-slip textured arm of my treadmill is so good for winding on more evenly.

Here's a little about me.
1. I've crocheted since 1998. I didn't try to sell anything until 2023.
2. I have creative projects that are just mine, not posted on social media. Very therapeutic.
3. I love handwriting. The flow of my hand relaxes me & feels kind of like painting.
4. I had a box of sketches in my room as a kid. I'd look through them & dream of being a famous artist. I lean more towards abstract art but the dream is still there.

My new house (in zone 7b) has hooks for hanging baskets outside the kitchen sink window, but that area is pretty much always shaded. Any suggestions on edible plants that would do well in that environment?

I have this crazy idea of using a bunch of string/yarn in my possession to make net-type things to put the pots in. I've seen plenty of such hanging-pot holders in stores, but if anyone has advice for how to make my own (macrame?) I'm all ears.

A look into my creative process...yarn sorting edition.

Who else removes yarn labels from their yarn, and then pins on a handwritten label?

Does anyone else have bags of labels with pieces of yarn taped to them?

Does anyone else have yarn albums on their phone? It's not just me, right?

If you're looking for a way to use your yarn, a fun little scrap yarn project, my scrunchie pattern SJC Scrunchie 1 is available in my Ko-fi shop.

I crocheted a top freestyle without a pattern, and it turned out good πŸ‘€

Und so, liebe Kinder, verschwand die kleine Sticknadel in den dunklen Untiefen der Sesselritze und ward nie mehr gesehen.

(Und die Moral von der Geschicht: immer Nadelkissen benutzen! Ja auch dann wenn es nur ganz kurz ist)

And just like this, dear children, the little sewing needle disappeared into the dark depths of the armchair crevice and was never seen again.

(And the moral of the story: always use a pin cushion! Yes, even if it’s only for a moment)

I have moderate knitting skills and very little understanding of sewing terminology, but can probably do anything I am able to look up.

It's cotton and viscose, and I'm fine with it being all black since the white slub probably isn't replicable. I don't know what thread/yarn I need, or what tools.

I also have some fingering weight rainbows I would like the look of if superwash merino wouldn't warp too much?
