Caran, the Stitchy Frood

A crochet mandala art doily lies on a black desktop. The doily is pink at the center, which is the middle left of the picture, and fades into teal, and then light blue at the edge. An 8-pointed star is the basic motif repeated throughout this pattern.

I haven’t forgotten you, Bsky. 💜

I also haven’t finished stringing the beads for my latest gay pride parasol. My apologies.

I was distracted by a beautiful new 8-pointed star pattern to which I added picots. 4000+ picots. I do love to crochet picots, but maybe not THIS much. Oops.

Amazing look! 🖤

don’t ever let anyone make u feel like u are the outer layer of the cinnamon roll

u are the clit of the cinnamon roll

Love that positive space/negative space heart blanket! 🩷

hot people get STI/HIV tested.

even when they’re not concerned they’ve been exposed. even when they’re having safe sex.

I think it’s gong to work! Super hopeful gay pride crochet!!

This is the last blocking before I finish & put it on the frame. I’m thinking I’ll add 2 more rounds and likely bead the edge so it drops down over the frame arms like a 70s lamp.

Then I should write down what I did so I can do it again.

Everybody crazy ‘bout a sharp dressed man.

Yes! In the pattern thise end in fans, but I saw pineapples, so I chose that pattern knowing it wasn’t big enough for what I wanted. 💜🍍s

6 mouths seems like the correct number of mouths. I love it!!

Thanks so much! 💜

A work-in-progress crochet mandala art doily lies on a black desktop. At the top of the image the yarn is purple and fades one strand at a time through blue, green, yellow, and orange at the edge. This will be a 48” Gay Pride parasol if the pattern works out.

Well, this pattern ended 8 rounds ago, so I’m making it up to accommodate a 48” parasol frame. Hope it works out bc I hate frogging whole mandala art doilies!!

Call this hopeful gay pride crochet 🧶

Wow! Makes me want to try knitting again!

And if you stopped masking it’s okay to start again.

It’s worth it.

Here I am posting infrequently about things no one cares about. It’s a lot of work. Slur button ftw

I’ve made myself many cross stitch pins of 16- bit characters. Mario 1-3, Mortal Kombat, Zelda, Metroid. They all work. 👍

I hope your new home is welcoming. It’s always nice to be reminded that we’re not alone, even in Utah. Thank you so much for your comments. 💜

Thank you!

A work-in-progress mandala art doily lies on a black desktop. To the left of the doily is my 2.75mm crochet hook which has. Wolf handle and silver metal tip. Slightly visible above the doily is the cake of yarn showing the gay pride rainbow the finished parasol will possess.

Still working this new pattern for tonight’s NLCS game. Hope it’s half as good as last night’s game. ⚾️

The blue color is sneaking in to my work now.

An LGBTQIA2S+ group in SLC may have a Winter Bazaar, so hopefully I’ll get to be involved!

Ugh. I’m sorry.

I hope your rental car is fun!

A work-in-progress crochet doily masala lies on black desktop. The worked yarn is purple and it is attached to a gay pride rainbow cake skein to the left of the image. At the top my working stitch has the crochet hook still attached. That hook is 2.75mm, a metal hook, and wooden handle. To the right are the guitar-shaped scissors I tossed carelessly - oops!

Brand new patten for the NLCS game tonight. I don’t have a favorite of the Dodgers-Brewers, both teams play great baseball.

This pattern isn’t self-drafted. It’s printed in Cyrillic, so if you want the title and author, msg me. I’m quite excited about making something new-new.

White people who have spent decades thinking “Born in the USA” is patriotic and “Every Breath You Take” is a great wedding song are suddenly very concerned about not being able to understand lyrics to some songs at the Super Bowl halftime show.

Look, when a thing is right, it’s right.

A work-in-progress crochet mandala lies on a black desktop. A crochet hook with a wood handle and silver metal hook lies next to the mandala’s right side. The working yarn exits the picture at the top right.

I’m still catching up on orders from my sale. This is one I always love to make.

It’s okay, you can say it: Isn’t it just… beige?

Yes, but not for long. I promise teals and blues are coming. 🤞

Should I do a giveaway after I’m caught up?
