Today is #FNDawarenessday

See the screenshot for my story.

Diagnosed in January. Got given a link to a website and told to try distraction techniques. 3-4 month follow up pushed back to 6.

We desperately need research and a care pathway for life altering disability.

I also entered my very first cosplay competition recently with my yarn Aerith at @fanfrontier.bsky.social Power Con this month!

Got my first tapestry crochet up with my plate and it goes perfectly!

I felt so petty as Aerith this weekend. I can’t wait to wear her again!

5 months, 350 hours work, I debuted my crocheted & hand-sewn Aerith at @kupocon.com

Except for jacket hardware & ribbon on the dress, the entire thing, including the wig & jewellery were made from yarn. I used over 5000 meters on yarn in total 🤯

(More in replies)

I did it.

I made a yarn wig in three days with zero experience, simply prayers and vibes

I decided last minute to attempt to a yarn wig to go with my crochet Aerith cosplay.

Apparently I hate myself and love suffering 💀

I’m already back working on my next project!
It’s for a cosplay but not for me, it’s for a friend. I always get so nervous making things for other people! 😳

I don’t have any fancy photos but here’s my Meteion

With the buckles arriving today, I have officially finished crochet Aerith’s outfit. Hundreds of hours and metres of yarn later!

(Ignore that I’m wearing the wrong undergarments)

4 books to get to know me 📚

I’ve read endless amounts of books but here are 4 that come to mind immediately.

I am obsessed with this game. I didn’t think it’d be my sort of thing but it’s so fun and there’s SO MUCH content and it’s free!

I’m so excited to hand out my trinkets at Kupocon! I love giving people things 🥰

Just the belts to go!

Everything has been just miserable lately. I can’t wait for Kupocon in three weeks where I can absolutely nerd the hell out among fellow Final Fantasy weirdos 🥺

This was the FFXIV cosplayers last year I was Meteion

Hmm, I wonder? 🤔

I love most of Junji Ito’s characters. Tomie is iconic though.

I grew up with Courage the Cowardly Dog and I think the show influenced my lifelong interests. I relate so much to that little anxiety filled dog!

Of course, anyone who knows me knows how obsessed I am with R2D2 💙

I made a yellow lily to go with my crochet Aerith cosplay while I’m waiting on more yarn arriving to finish her jacket 💐

This is all the yarn I have left from my 400g ball and I still have half a sleeve, lapels and little pockets to do.

So thought ‘oh, I’ll just go buy a little 100g ball, that’ll be more than enough’ BUT they only sell the giant 400g balls or a multipack of small balls 🙃

I’ve been crocheting for a year now! I’m so proud of myself 🥰
