Whoops, I missed a few weeks. Sorry about that. Here’s a late post to make up for it. Coming Thursday, 10 cool homey things.
WATERMELON DEATH STAR. This makes me feel almost like I could really fall in love with someone someday.
From Cat High. I adooooore this one – a kitteh feminist! “The Feline Eunuch!” Love love love. I just asked Winston if he was a feminist and he flipped me off.
Make an old book into a journal!
Tie-dye your own tights! I want to make two matching pair of tie-dyed tights for Grady and myself. It would be amazing.
Lee Meredith dyed this skein of yarn in a crock pot, and you can too. Seriously. I keep on almost buying crock pots at thrift stores, and then I realize that for the price of a crock pot I can buy a pair of pants for Grady. Let’s talk about the ridiculous prices of baby clothes sometime.
You can also make a planner out of an old book.
This is a weird-looking cookie recipe that also includes this handy pattern for a gift box.
Real Peanuts. Teeheehee.
How to ply yarn using a drop spindle. A dear writer of mine at the UVU Review gave me a hand-made drop spindle recently, and I haven’t yet dared make anything with it. As soon as I buy roving, I know I’ll be obsessed with it.
Lee Meredith just barely stopped by Blazing Needles on some kind of road trip. She was very rude! Also, most of her patterns are things that you would figure out with some red heart and a crochet hook while you were high.
Her hair is very red.
