Upcoming confirmed events:
Fall Festival: Sept 26, 11am - 8pm, St. Helens, OR
Halloween Night Market: Oct 3, 4-9pm, Scappoose, OR
(Potentially another Columbia County, OR, event on Oct 17, working on that.)#crochet #halloween #marketprep #plushies

Finished the backpanel for a tunesian crochet poncho. I had seen the pattern ages ago and by chance found a yarn I like for it.

Blocked my first #crochet doily today! It’s actually way easier to starch and block a doily than I thought.

@consumablejoy I store my projects the same way!
My main project bags are these white zip bags I picked up at Arecibo many years ago - I got them because they were cute, and didn't have a use for them until I started crocheting again. My carry-bag is a very simple lightweight satin bag, from the Ghibli Museum, that can hold all three in a pinch - rarely has to, since I really try not to have that many WIPs at once! Another impulse buy that just happened to be the perfect size for a project bag or two, swatching tape measure, my Lumos crochet light...
The one project I'm working on (Totoro amigurumi) that doesn't fit neatly into one Arecibo bag (multiple skeins in different colors - bulky!) is currently living in this colorful shoulder bag that my MIL gave me, made of old sari fabric... Also a serendipitous matchup.
It's so much fun to have good uses for all of these bags that were just languishing in the closet previously!
(Also, when I travel and need to be as streamlined as possible, I have a couple of these airplane amenity kit bags from a Lufthansa flight a couple years ago that are surprisingly perfect for a one-skein project with hook, TSA-legal scissors, stitch markers, and a finishing needle...)

I did not know that #JoAnns was a corporate sponsor of Loose Ends, the world wide organization that helps get creative projects finished for families after a loved one passes away. They've apparently struggled a bit since JoAnns closed, but donations of time or money are always appreciated!

If anyone wants it, I can do a step-by-step guide to those queer juggling balls. I'm not good with crocheting terminology though, especially in English.
In short:
You need 2 balloons, 90g of millet (or something else that has about the same volume), crochet threads in the desired colors (in the picture those are not the correct colors and the "pink" isn't even crochet thread - it's too brittle and soft) and a crochet hook, scissors and a scale.You blow up the 2 balloons and bind them close with some leftover thread and let them hang somewhere overnight, so they wear out. You open them up again and fill one with millet. One balloon filled with millet should be about 90 grams. You may have to blow up the balloon already filled with millet a few times until its filled enough. Now cut the neck of the balloon as well as the other one. Take the empty balloon, stretch it and pull it over the other one like a condom. Now you should have a ball with no millet flowing out.
Now to the crocheting. Start with 2 chains and then do a ring of 5 meshes all into the first chain. Close the ring by stabbing through the start of the ring and pulling the thread through both loops, then do a chain to start the new row.
Turn the piece around and now do a row of 10 meshes, by doubling each mesh.
Each half-ball consists of 11 rows:
5-10-15-20-25-30-35-40-45-50-50
So each row except for the last one you add 5 meshes.So how many rows per color?
3 colors (e.g.: :PansexualFlag: ): 8 rows (5-40), 3 rows (45-50)
4 colors (e.g.: :AsexualFlag: ): 7 rows (5-35), 4 rows (40-50)
5 colors (e.g.: :TransFlag: ): 6 rows (5-30), 3 rows (35-45), 2 rows (50)
6 colors (e.g. :QueerFlag: ): 5 rows (5-25), 3 rows (30-40), 3 rows (45-50)
3 different size rows (e.g.: :BisexualFlag: ): 9 rows (5-45), 2 rows (50)When you switch colors you complete the row with by pulling the thread through the other end, but don't add the chain. Cut the thread and pull it all the way through. Pull both rest-threads of the color to the less beautiful side (inside) and knot them together, making sure not to pull them together too tightly.
You start the next row with the new color by doing a chain on the side you ended the last row at and then turn the piece around.If you're finished with the 11th row (half the ball) make sure you leave enough thread (at least at one of the half-balls) to sew them together.
Sew about a quarter together before putting the balloon in, then finish sewing.(Okay this turned out way longer than I expected, but it's still just very rudimental - if there is demand I'll do a thorough guide with pictures and try to use the correct vocab - I'm sure chain isn't the right word for example.)

You open them up again and fill one with millet. One balloon filled with millet should be about 90 grams. You may have to blow up the balloon already filled with millet a few times until its filled enough. Now cut the neck of the balloon as well as the other one. Take the empty balloon, stretch it and pull it over the other one like a condom. Now you should have a ball with no millet flowing out.
Now to the crocheting. Start with 2 chains and then do a ring of 5 meshes all into the first chain. Close the ring by stabbing through the start of the ring and pulling the thread through both loops, then do a chain to start the new row.
Turn the piece around and now do a row of 10 meshes, by doubling each mesh.
Each half-ball consists of 11 rows:
5-10-15-20-25-30-35-40-45-50-50
So each row except for the last one you add 5 meshes.So how many rows per color?
3 colors (e.g.: :PansexualFlag: ): 8 rows (5-40), 3 rows (45-50)
4 colors (e.g.: :AsexualFlag: ): 7 rows (5-35), 4 rows (40-50)
5 colors (e.g.: :TransFlag: ): 6 rows (5-30), 3 rows (35-45), 2 rows (50)
6 colors (e.g. :QueerFlag: ): 5 rows (5-25), 3 rows (30-40), 3 rows (45-50)
3 different size rows (e.g.: :BisexualFlag: ): 9 rows (5-45), 2 rows (50)When you switch colors you complete the row with by pulling the thread through the other end, but don't add the chain. Cut the thread and pull it all the way through. Pull both rest-threads of the color to the less beautiful side (inside) and knot them together, making sure not to pull them together too tightly.
You start the next row with the new color by doing a chain on the side you ended the last row at and then turn the piece around.If you're finished with the 11th row (half the ball) make sure you leave enough thread (at least at one of the half-balls) to sew them together.
Sew about a quarter together before putting the balloon in, then finish sewing.(Okay this turned out way longer than I expected, but it's still just very rudimental - if there is demand I'll do a thorough guide with pictures and try to use the correct vocab - I'm sure chain isn't the right word for example.)

Did the gauge swatches for the mystery crochet along I am participating in. They use a 3mm and a 2.5mm hook (two designers two tensions). To meet gauge I need to use 2.5mm for rounds and 2mm for rows. 😂
