I spent a lot of time redesigning and improving the new https://fediverse.info
it would mean a lot to me if you boost this, and spread awareness of this powerful onboarding resource ❤️
Here's the table runner I made for my mother's birthday! This was part of the endless list of crochet things she sees online and wants me to make her 😆
I know it would have looked more cohesive had I used matching shades within each colour (and the same yarns) but I wanted to use what I already had in my stash so it is what it is. Still happy with it!
Hello everyone!
I'm Hester and I have hobbies. Quite a lot of them. I'm into #writing, #reading, #crochet, #linocut printing, #zine making and at the moment I am mostly #CrossStitching
I'm fairly new to #crossstitch and to mastodom, so I'm trying to find my feet.
This is it for my #introduction so far. If you have questions or any tips about mastodon, I'd love to hear from you!
I hope you have a lovely day.

It's experiment o'clock again 🤓
I have zero intention of spending 15€ on a tiny bottle of fabric stiffener, so I'm trying the cornstarch method shared on this nice blog: https://heritageheartcraft.weebly.com/my-blog/starching-thread-crochet-pieces
Except I'm using potato starch as that's what I have. They're usually pretty much interchangeable in cooking so I guess it's fine.
I'm testing it on two different yarns, I suspect the thinner one (red) will need more than one coat, let's wait and see.
I came across a new #sewing pattern designer who specialises in drafting for #trans adults and teens, and their patterns are free! They only have one out currently (a cool pair of elastic waist trousers, #transfemme block) but the next one according to the website will be a #transmasc top!
They're also gathering information of trans body measurements to work on their block, you can send them your measurements anonymously if you feel so inclined. 😊

Hello, I am Violet, moving here from a gaming instance. I do still love cozy games and puzzles, but no longer have a gaming laptop or current console.
I am a freelance #food photographer and recipe developer, previously a professional pastry chef.
I am currently working up the nerve to share personal #recipes and projects for the first time since having a baking blog pre-Influencer and SEO internet times. (Despite having work published in actual magazines.)
My current project is a 'kitchen witch' themed recipe zine, including topics like #FoodInsecurity and cooking and eating for disabled, chronically ill, or neurodivergent folks. (Collabs welcome.)
I also enjoy #gardening in the Midwest, reading #CozyMystery and romcoms, #tea and teaware, #meditation and #Pagan or #Buddhist spirituality, #cats and nature and backyard wildlife.

Once again, I put off a task for months, and once again, doing so took less than 10 minutes to resolve everything. Now I have one less thing to worry about. I will learn nothing from this experience.
I'm in my 30s and a friend a suggested I had autism. I spent a few weeks learning everything about autism to prove I wasn't. In hindsight, they may have had a point.
