A small crocheted toy in the likeness of Master Yoda is standing in front of a book with a photograph of a similar toy on the cover. There is a red gingham pattern bowl behind them both and it's all on a wooden tabletop.

I'm hoping he'll be just as cute with them. 😅 Kit stuff never turns out the way it looks on the package.

Not much crafting as of late due to a minor health scare. But, I can say I've started yet another project through the mess. Yay, AuDHD! 😂 Anyway, I got a Star Wars crochet kit, and it included the materials for Yoda. I think he's looking good so far. #crochet #amigurumi #yarn #starwars #fiberartist

A small figure sitting on a hand. The figure has a green head with black eyes, a brown body, and green feet. It is slightly cone shaped and has a smile embroidered in black yarn. There is a wooden floor and a chair in the background, both are blurry.

The stupidity is rampant on MAGA media. They're advertising a collectible two dollar Trump bill. And they said that he's the only president to serve two non consecutive terms. 🤦🏼‍♀️ Good grief. How do they think they can they "make America great" when they don't know basic fucking US History?

The twist is set and it's hung up to dry. I may have usable yarn in a day or two! 🥰 #spinningyarn #spinnersky #yarnspinning #spinningwheel #learningtospin #yarn #fiberartist 🧶

Multicolored pastel yarn in loops and twists in soapy water. The background is black.

Yarn hanging on a clothes hanger on a closet door. There are garments in the closet on the left and a full bookshelf on the right. There is a white T shape made from pvc weighing down the bottom of the yarn.

@scoutj.bsky.social here you go! Approximately one hundred yards of mostly even worsted with a few flubs. I'm highly pleased! #spinningyarn #spinnersky #yarnspinning #spinningwheel #learningtospin #yarn #fiberartist #knitting #crochet #fibertartsky 🧶

Yarn wrapped around a contraption made of pvc pipe with two sets of arms perpendicular to each other and mounted on a long bar between. The contraption is white and the yarn is various pastel colors. The whole thing is sitting on a white coffee table. There is a brown basket off to the left and a beige wall is behind it.

Close up of strands of yarn strung around a white contraption. The yarn is various pastel shades and seems to be candy cans striped. The background is dark and nothing is in focus.

I don't know about cool... But I do know I didn't take into account what I'd be carrying around with 7 skeins of super chunky yarn and two bags of stuffing. Dang thing weighs fifteen pounds! 🤣

I found the same difference when I used Kollage squares a few years ago. No one else noticed the difference in my work but I did.

I don't really have a favorite, but this one is definitely my most memorable. 🤣 A two and three quarters foot tall Cthulhu with eyes that I hand painted. (My 5'2" sprog for scale.)

I got the pipe and forgot I have nothing to cut it with here. 🤣 So it'll have to wait until I borrow my boss's oscillator tomorrow.
