knitting, crocheting, sewing, cross stitch, & all fiber arts for divergent/queer/antifash folks. encouragement, pattern share, help, & community in an art form that isn’t always friendly to marginalized people.

if i have to pick, i was a watcher of “nick rocks” as a youth (it was the same as “120 minutes” & i stand on that) so the eponymous album is so important to me, BUT! “john henry” is so special. they never miss. “flood”? a prophecy.
that’s beautiful. i am a huge proponent of purple & green together.
portioning skeins of yarn for a hat build

minimum waaaaaaaaaage! hee-ya!
okay it’s saturday, let’s start with something easy. let’s see some #WIP. whatcha making? i’m casting on a hat for my friend sam today, so i’ll be back with that. i have the build sorted, but i need to do some math (boo!). 🧶
if you haven’t seen JT’s work, you need to do that immediately. thank you so much for offering. in charge of crochet questions until they can’t stand it anymore. ⬇️ 💕
• pattern links (please keep them free, yes we all pay for patterns & we should, but bsky isn’t about ads/sales)
• i’ve been knitting since i was a teenager in the 90s. i love watching the walls of stigma around fiber arts crumble. i want to help keep kicking those down.
• thank you for being here!
• in less than 24 hours there’s 20 active TALENTED people here. check each other out! community is important (esp now)
• i’m not here to “lead” but i will put a daily post or several about something
• tag if you’re struggling or want to show off your work, i’ll repost (but pls like the OG too) (2)
the other reasons i started this account (i wanted to follow something like this w/my main & couldn’t find one):
• obviously stuff listed in bio
• i love fawning over other crafters’ work
• important part: feeds & lists are great, but i’ve watched folks flap in the wind asking for help/opinions (1)
i self malnourished so everyone was flapping that parachute around or double dutching while i was put in front of a donut or a PB&J.
i too learned rug/tapestry stuff in the sad kid clink. i bet there’s thousands of us.
• complete GATE homework
• get told your feelings need to be adjusted
• work on a 2 color latch hook
• take these pills
this account blocking a TERF
part of the reason i started this account: good GOD(ESS) i hate TERFs. oh you made a sweater? so you TRANSITIONED yarn into a different thing? it was a skein, it will always be a skein. it was born a skein, how dare you. 🧶
new womensart account
hi fiber folks 🧶
pls report and block this terf account
on it, thank you.
knitting: yep. 2 points make a stitch. keep goin.
latch hooking: yep. take that hook, loop, eventual rug.
crotchet: you have a bent stick & by stabbing the air you have made a 3-D donkey kong cat toy & a skirt. my brain does not… how did..? never mind. all the respect, crocheters that’s cool.
yes it is. that is so gorgeous.
if you’re somehow not there: highly recommended feed ⬇️
you have an orange cat that sat in it long enough for a picture. either way… take this 🏆
hi, i’m your opposite. wtf do you mean the stitches AREN’T attached to that single thingy you got there? sorcery!

i can’t pick a favorite. those flowers though! damn.
omg. we love to see it! 💜
recently cleared out my storage unit & found a ton of perfectly preserved yarn from the turn of the century. a skein of this, a couple pound of that. everybody’s getting hats.
AMAZING
now that’s out of the way… i’m off to encourage fellow fiber artists. neurodivergent knitting. gay crochet. NSFW(orsted weight). show me your knits. other puns. 🧶
