a pouch I crocheted for some cards! i am very proud of the closure. designed it myself
i always struggled with closures on pouches that aren't suitable for drawstrings. i have 1 that just barely fits the cards and they don't fall out cause of the tension. this one though, the cards actually have enough room.
what i did was i made a flap, i chained some, i attached chain to the other side of the flap, and cut the yarn. then i chained a bunch, surface crocheted a line onto the pouch, and then started chaining again, making sure that the points at which the chains "detach" are about where the loop attached to the flap is fully stretched out.
if this makes you go "huh" and you'd like to understand, feel free to ask
closeup of the yarns, i used 2 cotton crochet threads and 1 fingering weight cotton, held together, it's such a beautiful effect, don't you think?
Finished! Hot off the needles
Still need to wash and block
I put them on but they aren't for me! They are too big for me but just right for the person I'm gifting them too.

I promised I would find the name of the yarn! I randomly tried this yarn and its very nice! Evergreen yarn studio on etsy. They have an Instagram too. First pair of socks I ever knitted
They are still going strong after being worn and washed many times

Yarn from Hobbii
I'm definitely a yarn witch 🪄
honestly yeah, fiber arts is magic. you cast spell of warm gloves, spell of nice hat, spell of stuffed animal.
material component: yarn
wand: single hooked wand or double pointed wands, depending on caster's preference
mechanical component: specific motions repeated in a particular pattern
time component: a while
look seriously the first step in a knitting recipe is "cast on", and then it's a bunch of letters and numbers incomprehensible to anyone not versed in the arcane art. that's a spellbook. yes it's a book of knitting patterns but also. it's a spell book.
Fingerless gloves made with cascades yarn in one of their blends of silk and merino wool from a LYS. My first attempt at a thumb gusset, they turned out great! Quick story: I was knitting these to distract myself from being 9months pregnant and knowing that baby was coming any minute. I finished them 2 days before baby came.
I learned to crochet in 2010. In 2017 I really wanted hats. I made these awful crochet hats. They are stiff and don't drape well and they aren't warm. Anyways after this I finally properly learned to knit!
Ok the real question is why did I crochet so many? When they all suck? What was I thinking! The first 2 hats are the blue green and orange. I believe those are acrylic simply soft yarn. The reddish color hat and the greenish red hat are malabrigo rios 100% wool. The one with the pom pom and the grey with the lilac colored yarn were something I lost the name of. I went to a little local yarn store and they had alpaca mixed with wool on discount and it was that, but the brand is long lost in 2017....
Heres all the old photos I could find stored on my phone. All projects from 2020-2022. I will take some pics of current WIPs and a couple things I finished this past year soon! Crocheted rainbow scarf with rainbow magic baby yarn from Ice Yarn, crocheted fall shawl with mandala yarn from lion brand, Hermione socks with yarn from Etsy (I have to check the name, I love the yarn and will update shortly!), fall shawl with hobbii winter glow wool yarn ❤️, and a tedious tiny 3.25mm giant shawl with hobbii twister (I have to dig up better photos the thing is massive and gorgeous).
I learned how to crochet in one afternoon and it was the best decision I've ever made omg I'm obsessed.

I made 1 poll and now im obsessed I can ask whatever I love it
Get yourself a fabric store that will light your fabric on fire for you
No but legit I asked what the fiber content of something was and the guy didn’t know so he cut a chunk off and lit it on fire and felt the ashes and was like. Yeah this is mostly cotton with a lil bit of silk. And that was the moment I knew. This is it. This is the fabric store for me. Also that guy is marriage material. Not for me but damn some person is gonna be so happy with him.
I made crochet flowers yesterday:)
