Summer beach wrap/shawl! Made with cotton yarn, hobbii dahlia in 2 different colors of the limited time summer colors. It looks like watermelon to me 🍉 the pattern I believe was a free pattern on hobbii's website.

I'm just gonna dump the rest of the pictures of stuff I made between 2022- now:

Moss stitch crocheted scarf with unknown yarn? I know its a wool blend...

Waffle stitch cowl with yarn bee yarn. I think it looks like seaweed

Toddler asked for a sparkly rainbow scarf! Knit on small circulars with lion brand yarn

I hate this yarn. I bought enough to crochet a blanket. And I got here, its big enough to be a big shawl, and I said enough. I donated the rest of the yarn. Just really annoying to work with. Crocheted, some sort of shell stitch I don't remember which (sorry!!). The yarn is gorgeous, I don't like working with it personally but don't hate if you haven't tried it. Lion brand home spun yarn.

I will post current WIPs next! (These days I barely have time to knit or crochet so my posts will be less frequent)

Pogona is blocked and finished! First two pics are immediately after binding off, the rest are from after blocking. Just did a gentle block, no pins as it it plenty large enough already. Really pleased with the size, shape, and fading!

I feel like we really lost something when we started looking at writing as a reader-centric product meant to appeal to the desires of a specific audience rather than a writer-centric approach of someone writes whatever particular thing particular compels them/whatever weird thing the demons in their head want to talk about, and people out there who are also compelled, and/or relate, find that writing. A lot of discussions of writing really center around what readers want rather than a writer's exploration. Sometimes as a reader I don't know what I want. I click on a fic or pick up a book I'm not sure about but that looks interesting, and I love it. Reading what I expect to get is it's own joy, but we always need to expand our horizons and not get mad at creators for not always writing what we want/expect.
