You're totally right, now I just have to break the news to my husband. And don't look at my Herrschners cart 👀

They're even better in person! The colors remind me of the old TV color bars and the sparkles remind me of the static.

Going through my yarn closet yesterday, I came across a WIP that just wasn't doing it for me. Frogged, rewound, and rearranged the colors. Now just needing to find something to do with it. 🧶💃🏻 #yarn #crochet #sparkles #fiberart

Even more beautiful is 99% of it was bought on clearance or sale over the years. Full price who?!

You've just blown my mind with the catnet! I always avoid blocking by pinning because of not having enough space to lay something out, but this could be doable!

Flower in the yard, yarn in the house. What's that saying about how life imitates art? Any flower themed shawls that I could crochet with this? 🧶🏵️

Good idea on the test swatch, I'm a non gauge swatch type of girlie if that tells you anything, but with the time I've put into this shawl, major shrinkage is the last thing I want!

Absolutely! I always wash my pieces after they are finished but they are usually acrylic and can handle a good wash and dry.

Thank you! I was hoping to avoid the soaking method 😭, I love my steamer so much 🤣

Thank you! Ever since making it I've been wanting to make more and more projects with fur trim! Just waiting for the heat of summer to go away!!

Does anyone have any blocking tips for this yarn? Typically I work with acrylic yarn and steam block my pieces but wasn't sure if that would work for 100% cotton. Cotton King Sultan Yarn by Hobbi, 4 strand.

Guess who got new yarn today!
🧶💅🏻💃🏻
Baby alpaca blends and fairy tale fur trims! Amongst a few others, I finally got some practice yarn to try hand dyeing before tackling a whole 700 yards. Any tips on hand dying superwash wool are appreciated!

Throwback! Made this robe for my husband a few years ago as a Christmas present. Fun fact, I messed up the color order on the 2nd panel, row 4 & didn't notice until I went to seam the panels together. Frogged and redid a whole panel 3 days before Xmas. I'm 5'10, guess how tall husband is! #crochet 🧶

What do you do when you finish a project & hate it? Frog it & start a new project! Original inspiration of Taylor Swift's "I hate it here"(so I will go to secret gardens in my mind) really rang true. 1st attempt at a 7 point cardigan, becoming a full sized blanket. #crochet #yarn #changeofplans 🧶💃🏻

In case anyone ever tries to tell you steam blocking doesn't do anything! Not the best pics, but I have pretty tight tension, made as a small and steamed to fit a medium. 🧶💃🏻

Made from a number 3 anti pilling acrylic, super soft and has a good drape after steaming. #crochet #yellow #steamblocking

I've always followed PassioKnitKelsie's hexagon cardigan tutorial on YouTube; sometimes I add my own adjustments. The yarn for this one was Premier Sweet Roll Frostie in Peach Fizz, currently on sale on their website for $2.99! I used about 6 rolls of it to make this one! 🥰

Well today is the day for a new adventure! Officially moving to our new home in a new town! Decided to make one last project at the old house as a housewarming present to ourselves at the new house. Normally, I don't use chunky yarn but the stash has spoken! 🧶💃🏻
