I can’t run away from the beast
RIP the scab and set it free
It’s the killer in me


@Peptibismol: the body color is going to be multicolor the yarn is called cookies and cream but the roses are going to be a blue and green


There is blood on the path I walk
And each step I take is haunting me
Embraced by the darkness, I'm losing the light
Encircled by demons, I fight

@Peptibismol: It's nice to meet you too. And actually i would have had more done but i created a crochet guild and hangout.... but i'm making a Dragon lamp sorta speak. I have a 3d printed moon lamp my dad got me but i don't know if that will hold so i might actually have to buy a lamp for it but i'm starting with the base first vs the dragon.

Yarn

For years I never understood yarn size due to it never really made a difference. Until I made a project that was supposed to be a lot smaller then it was. That is when I started to pay attention to the yarn size for patterns vs just doing what was pretty.
