Everything aches. Life is pain. Here's some crafts.

I'll be more enthusiastic about encouraging thinking outside the box when there's evidence of any thinking going on inside it.

Calling all crafters & Discworld fans!

Myself and some friends from my crafty Discord are holding ourselves a “Discworld makealong”. And naturally we’d love to invite our friends in the Fediverse to join in too 🥳

No pressure. No deadlines. Just for fun. And any craft welcome!

So far knitting and cross stitch are well-represented but I’m sure we’ll pick up a few more along the way 😄

November 4th, through Hogswatch season, ending in the new year*. You’re very welcome to join in with your project at any point!.

Some of us will be on Mastodon under #DiscworldMAL. I for one will be on Lemmy too. And of course if you want to join the Discord, link’s in my bio, but not necessary if you’re not into that.

(Oh and for those of you who have no idea what Discworld is or what I’m talking about, congratulations you’ve got 41 books to look forward to!)

*I suspect most projects will not actually be finished by then, because we’re slow and easily distracted. As demonstrated by me not posting about this until it’s a week away 🙃

Every. Single. Week. I plan to join in with #FollowFriday and completely forget. But NO MORE!

Theme of this list will be "people I met in other places and now are also here" because why not:

Crafters of various kinds!

@thecozydh
@monstermedic
@IoSapsai
@just_chill

Also @Wilbury311 who doesn't post much but maybe if you all follow her we can peer pressure her a bit.

And a non-craft curveball, @edinburgh_man who runs a weirdly comforting podcast showcasing all kinds of obscure and eclectic music.
