I am jealous of you knitters, that is something I lack patience for xD
I mean, I once did babies' shoes and was like 'that's it, I peaked'

@mdom: aww. Baby booties go really fast. Other projects tend to take long and i lose patience. Lol
I have at least five unfinished projects at a time.

@the youngest granny: Lol. It's only been 2 years. But yeah. You'll get to them eventually. XD

Mdom, try loom knitting! It's what I do and personally I find it way easier than needle knitting. Tension isn't a big deal like it is with needle knitting and crochet.

Derpy looks up at Anarchist suspiciously. "Cookie?"

Yeah, you just do flat panel instead of going across the loom like you do for a basic scarf.
Looms are actually super versatile. I do stuffed animals in 3-4 sizes (testing jumbo size currently), hats, scarves, shawls, blankets of all sizes, fingerless gloves, mittens, slippers, socks, etc.

@Kaderin Triste: lol. Feels like longer to me.
I am stuck on the thumb gusset. Its so freaking annoying!
I actually did get some of those online. I need to use them.

@the youngest granny: Just think...once the thumb gussets are done, it'll be easy!
Ooh, which ones did you get?

Oooh I didn't know they were so versatile! I must read more about it.

I wanna learn how to crochet or knit.
Make some beanies and scarves and shit.
Possibly sell them through an Etsy shop if I get pretty good. lol
Mostly I just want to be able to make myself a Ravenclaw colored scarf. XD

No cookie for Derpy, cavities.

Ravelry is a great source to find patterns. The higher quality ones you generally have to pay for, but they're worth it. There's a shawl pattern e-book with 6 patterns I want to buy soon... but there are also a ton of free patterns. And the authentic knitting board website has a blog with patterns as well as stitch lessons so you can learn stitches that previously were only able to be done with needles.

Derpy cries. :vanora_cry:
I could make a Ravenclaw scarf....book or movie colors.. ? Lol I made a Slytherin one ages ago but I hadn't learned proper color changes so I had a ton of yan ends to weave in...

@Anarchist Beauty: i could easily make you one. Xd
Scarves are easy.

@Kaderin Triste: cheap ones. Xd. I will have to find them though. Its been awhile since I say them. Yeah well i was making two pair at the same time. Lol. One set for you and one for me.

Voltie Posted 7 years ago ( 2017/09/6 02:41:23 )
I would make one of each. lol
And a beanie to match.
And eventually, after I had any sort of skill, a cardigan. XD
But currently, I have no skill at all.
So I am sad.

Omnomnom Dragoness posts...

@the youngest granny: Yeah, I remember the pics of them, they looked really good!
And ah. Probably a large gauge set then? They're pretty good, but you'll need bulky to super bulky yarn for most projects

*sneakily makes a Christmas present list fot online friends* NOTHING I AM NOT DOING ANYTHING HERE!

@Kaderin Triste: i need to refind my pattern for them! It was a sort of scale like pattern i was doing.
Might have to frog out the gussett i had started and start over. Ah no! Don't let your phone die!
Normally when i do gift lists its of art cause I know i will finish those. Xd
Or friendship bracelets. I think i owe you one of those too. Lol

@Anarchist Beauty: sounds like between Kaderin and I we will get you a set of each. Xd.
