Hey, everyone. I'm a #fiberartist. I #knit, #crochet, #crossstitch, #embroider, #weave and #sew. I am also on Instagram for now as RadicalCatCreations (apparently that name is too long for here) where you can see some of my older stuff!

I am the host of @fiberenbypodcast.bsky.social!

You can always just do swatches with different hook sizes to see how you like the density of the fabric. For my amis, I like a 4mm hook with worsted weight, but your tension will affect what you like!

Depends on what you mean by people different than you because I keep seeing people use that kind of phrasing to say we should tolerate hateful attitudes that cause harm because it's "a difference in opinion".

I find it's a little more stretchy than your typical chain, just FYI, if you need to measure out the item you are making yourself. I use it as a base for bracelets I make and when I did the chain, I would do 50-55 stitches, now I do 40-45.

Have you tried doing a foundation single crochet row? It lets you make the first row at the same time as you make the chain.

They are gorgeous! Would you be open to commissions in the future? I would like to get a wood shuttle with a hook, but none of the ones you have currently call to me.

The link works on my side. Hopefully the other commenter manages to get in.

This is the most compact inkle loom I've ever seen!

Radical Cat Creations (xe/they) @radicalcatcreates.bsky.social · Jun 21

Yeah, that's more like hardinger than tatting at best.

Hey! I know, I'm so quiet on here. But I've been working away on new things for Pride. In the meantime, I thought I would put up a list of the events I'll be at in the next few weeks.

Hope I see you soon!

I remember reading an article years ago that pointed out all the post apocalyptic movies have vehicles and trying to find gas as if everyone has forgotten bikes exist?

Living in larger groups is one of the reasons science thinks we outlived our Neanderthal cousins, too.

Radical Cat Creations (xe/they) @radicalcatcreates.bsky.social · May 9

You know, I hadn't thought of that but I do collect reference books because it's easier for me to find something in a physical copy versus digital. Dual purpose!

Radical Cat Creations (xe/they) @radicalcatcreates.bsky.social · May 9

Thank you! I appreciate it! 💜

Radical Cat Creations (xe/they) @radicalcatcreates.bsky.social · May 8

That would be lovely, thank you!

Do you have a rough guess on how long the warp is? 👀

Radical Cat Creations (xe/they) @radicalcatcreates.bsky.social · May 7

I wonder how long it warps.

Radical Cat Creations (xe/they) @radicalcatcreates.bsky.social · May 7

I think the answer is simply "more"

Why share AI gen stuff when you can share the cool things people actually make like the woman who made a replica of herself and her dog?

My favorite Japanese place closed around 2012? I found out two days after my birthday. T_T They were always so kind to me, even letting me pay double next time when their debit was down once.
