A way overdue finish, but a finish nonetheless!

"My Precious Sweater", crocheted in Ice Yarns Alara which it turns out is the most fabulous purple in the whole entire world.

I made the body a bit shorter than called for, and left the sleeves wide and long and comfy.

Very pleased, I'll wear this one a ton!

Shot of my torso wearing the newly completed jumper. It's a vibrant pinky purple, with an all-over diamond pattern made of eyelets. There's ribbing around the neckline, waist and cuffs, and the sleeves are long enough to cover most of my hands.

In the background are my craft shelves with all manner of colourful supplies, my old crocheted wedding bouquet and a tacky YouTube lamp.
Side view of the jumper, showing off how wide and baggy the sleeves are. at the left of the frame my knitted emotional support chicken Bernadette is poking her head in to say hi.


Auntie PJ said while she was crocheting that it was just 3D printing by hand. I’m pretty sure that’s the most hardcore thing she’s ever said…

Hi I'm new here. I'm tired of Facebook and Instagram and thought I would try something a little different. I love to crochet plushies. Here is some of my work! #crochet #handmade #fiberart #plushies




All the colourways from our Sunlight and Shorelines mini-release. I’m glad you enjoyed looking at the images. Going forward, I will be dyeing even smaller batches and revisiting my existing stock. Although, as an artist, I love creating new colourways, it is almost entirely the older ones that are purchased and the market determines what I can realistically produce and stay in business. I’m sure you’ll love seeing it all again! #mothyandthesquid #yarn #knitting #crochet mothyandthesquid.com


Hello world. I am new here. Into #crochet and art more generally. Sharing a recent little make just for fun to figure out how this all works.

It's pretty (relatively) expensive for anything cedar to ward off Wool moths.

I did an experiment. I put drops of clove oil directly into a clean fleece that was infected with Wool moths.
... the Wool moths and their larvae died. In the fleece. The infection of that bit of fleece ended.

Wool moth males smell pheromones given off by females (pheromone traps). Adults don't eat. Only the larvae do.

Watching this video where this knitter finds a wool moth in her yarn stash.

Tbh my first reaction would be to take a baseball bat and beat the yarn basket until the bat breaks. (I don't own a cricket bat, my part of the family isn't THAT British.)

Idk why my first reaction is "SMASH TO KILL!!" or "BURN IT WITH ALL OF THE FIRE!!"

Idk how else in that moment to kill tiny winged demons that eat yarn.

(I've done the moth kill saga before though.)

Usually, I dye yarn to reflect colours in photos (mine or licensed) but one thing I don’t do is use AI to generate matching images. This is mainly because I enjoy working this way. To me, it’s authentic and valuable. I also think photographers would rather be paid for their work than have it just used to train AI without permission or compensation. Plus, AI has environmental impacts that must be taken seriously. #mothyandthesquid #yarn #knitting #crochet


The 2024 rainbow yarn club was all about frogs. Some of these colourways are still available, and Mossy Frog is a repeatable. This year we are diving into the colourful world of tropical fish and there are just a couple of January skeins left (Betta Fish) if you’d like to nab one and join us for February then you can still collect the whole rainbow! #yarn #knitting #crochet #mothyandthesquid mothyandthesquid.com


i was recently reminded of this project thanks to another user making her own version.

back in 2022 i was given a bundle of unwanted baby pink yarn. the pink was so sweet and delicate it prompted ironic feelings in me, as a stark contrast to the harshness of life—the suffering, injustices, illnesses, mortality.

i was inspired to create this dress with a crochet bodice + filet crochet lettering, curtains for sleeves, and fabric i’d kept for decades for the skirt.

Evening Twters!

Made some lovely cowls this week for my brother and his partner. 🙂

Free to good home: rubber foam blocking mats, for fibre arts folk. One set of nine, and another incompatible set of nineteen. Southeast Melbourne area. #DebCleanup #knitting #crochet #iibrearts #fiberarts #craft
Square interlocking rubber from mats about 30 cm across.


Legs joined and torso started! Starting to feel excited. By no means perfect, but I'm telling myself it doesn't matter since it will be covered in fabric.

I’ve been sat quietly for a long time but I think it’s time for an #introduction. I’m Chronodile, a queer adult with ADHD. I’m a PhD student working on an atomic #physics experiment but my thesis is due soon and then I’ll start teaching at Uni!

My hobbies include #knitting and #crochet , but I’m also dead into science communication and outreach. I love #videogames (I used to stream on Twitch) and I enjoy a good book.

I’m looking to move instances - see details below, suggestions welcome!


Hi ! I’m new to Mastadon and enjoy reading , baking , crocheting etc looking for community to recommend books and share recipes #book #baking #crochet #newuser #community


Hello Fellow Comrades and Survivors,

I wanted to write an #Introduction. I'm a mom trying to set a good example to a daughter in a deeply conservative state. I hope to build community and skills on how to survive and thrive through these times.

Let me know if anyone has any recommendations for some pages to follow. Since I'm #new here!

@knitting
As a beginning spinner I bought roving from my local yarn store and etsy. There weren't many places to get spinning fibers a while back.

Now there's a lot more places to buy wool in various preps. I tend to buy more fleeces than roving now. Washed or spinning in the grease.

Use your first handspun yarn! It's not as "ugly" as you think. I made a crochet hat from one and a knit hat from another. I still wear them over a decade later.

The consumableJoy Great Destashing of 2025 is underway. I already have names and addresses of some of you who threw your hats in the ring last year and I didn’t get my sh*t in gear to send stuff out. If you’re interested in getting some *free* random yarn, let me know. If you have restrictions (like “no wool” or “bulky only”) let me know. If you want fiber instead of yarn, there is some available. North America only please. #FiberArts #knitting #crochet @knitting @fiberarts


#introduction I've actually had this account for a few years, but I didn't have an introductory post, so here it is.

I live in Cymru (Wales) and speak Cymraeg (Welsh) as a second language having learned as an adult.

I'm now retired so have more time to enjoy my interests which are photography, improving my Welsh and I've started writing fiction again. I also enjoy knitting, crochet, walking with my husband.

My favourite #knit of 2024 was definitely the Fungus Among Us cowl by Mary P Hunt. I made mine in Malabrigo Aroyo. There is a #crochet version of the pattern available too. Both from Ravelry. #knitting
Photo shows two hanks of knitting yarn. The one on the left is plain cream. The one on the right is striped yarn in shades of orange, red, brown and grey.
Photo shows a knitted cowl on a wooden table. The cowl features a motif of three fly agaric mushrooms. A border of chevrons is at the top and bottom of the motif. The motif and border are knit in striped yarn in shades or orange, brown, red and grey. The background and hem are knit in plain cream. The hem of the cowl is in rib.


So that I am not vagueposting: I was told by someone to "back off the AI policing" after I pointed out that the crochet pattern they shared is AI generated and doesn't actually exist. I follow many wonderful crafting people online, and I love crochet. I just don't get why someone knowingly shares crap like that.

Experimenting with double-yarn crochet. Pretty easy! Made myself an autumn leaf-viewing hat out of recycled scrap yarn from my stash. 🍁🧶 (No pattern for this one. I went by gut feeling).

Good morning everyone 🥶 Still very chilly here today with a storm on the way this weekend. I'm just up as Grant is going birding this morning so got up for the parrots. I've just come downstairs to a lovely welcome from them all, with Ziggy yelling "Hello!" as soon as she heard me coming down and Jadie babbling with excitement. Toby is the silent one, but at least he isn't screeching at me - yet - I fully expect that ear shattering squawk to happen soon as it's something he seems to do in the mornings. Only to me mind you. He just makes little "Hmmm?" noises to Grant. 🤔

I have to sort out an order that came in last night for a pair of slipper boots so it can be posted today and then we're off for a bimble around Lidl later. I'm waiting for yarn to arrive for a new custom crochet order and have another potential on the cards. It's that time of year 😊

Have a lovely day, whatever you get up to 🤗

Another delicious batt carded up this evening! It’s raining and gets dark so quickly these days, so I don’t have any photos yet with natural lighting (so not listed for sale yet) but look at this Merino, South American wool, and bamboo 4-oz mega batt! This would make the most bouncy & soft yarn!🧶 #fiberarts #MastoArt #knitting #crochet
