It is complete and survived the wash! I was worried about the tassels. This is my first time making them and it felt too easy. The harlequin pieces aren't as solid as I would like and were a nightmare to sew together and line up but it was worth it. #crochet #FiberArt #FanArt #HowlsMovingCastle

I’m just about finished! Both sides are complete and attached and all that’s left is trim and a quick wash before blocking it and packing it up to ship. #fiberarts #crochet #howlsmovingcastle #fanart

I haven’t been able to spend as much time with this project as I’d like but I was able to sit down with it this evening and wanted to share my progress. Side A is complete and assuming the rest of the week works out like the start of it has I should be able to complete side B before Friday and put all the finishing touches on this weekend. #crochet #fiberarts #fanart #flowers

The center of the scarf is only two colors so I’m making a lot of progress! It’s a lot longer than anticipated because I had to go up from a 3.75mm to a 5mm hook to make the stitches line up with the harlequin bit. It’s finally starting to look like something. Still trying to decide if I’m going to do the whole thing in one piece and add on the diamonds by sewing or do it in two halves. #crochet #tapestry #fiberarts #crafts

I’ve made a lot more progress but I didn’t feel like detangling my bobbins to get another picture. I’m not upset with it but I don’t love it yet. I think the trim will finally solidify it for me, or just looks a bit messy at the moment. #crochet #fiberarts #crafting

Trusting the process hard here. The harlequin pattern is meant to be used in much larger and less delicate applications but I feel like once I get the border on and wash/block it things will work out. #crochet #ghiblivibes #fiberarts #fanart #wip

Feeling blessed despite everything else right now. We feed and vet Spaghetti the cat who was abandoned by our neighbors and leave a little extra out for others who might be hungry. A few months ago a feral pregnant female showed up and over time we managed to gain her trust and she finally felt safe enough to bring the kittens by. We plan to get them vetted and socialized once they’re a little older.

@Jaden3@mastodon.social I’m all in on the greens myself if they’re made right, but I’m also a sucker for the old folks food like carrot and raisin salad and the stuff with pistachio pudding, walnuts, and marshmallows. It’s kind of gross but not inedible and I feel like it’s important to have the less desirable dishes to make the good stuff shine even brighter. A good smoked turkey or glazed ham is made so much better when compared to a mouthful of a sweet and vinegary abomination.
