Y’all! I made this!!! One forking stitch at a time. I’m so happy with it, though I will always point out the color change, before I started alternating skeins, so there’s that! 😜😂😂🤣 (Pattern and yarn in alt text.)

Wind rustling through a canopy of tree leaves, the distant sound of birdsong in the forest, a dying fire and cricketsong on an autumn evening, the rhythmic sound of a knife chopping vegetables on a cutting board, the immediate sizzle of ingredients hitting hot oil in a well-seasoned pan.

what sound do you associate with your oc? doesn’t have to be a sound they make, just a sound that feels like Them.

the cat, she snores, and my hands are stained with blueberry.
the cricketsong drifts through the window, gentle waves of sound, and i can hear the train in the distance.
tomorrow will be spent in the city, guiding people to the books they don't know that they need.
this must be enough, for now.

More Tree stuff because you look at Svefni and frankly how can you not write or draw about him?
Also, the return of Velvet, and I guess the debut of me using this new format for stories, tell me what y'all think!

‘every beginning is an end.’
loveletters made of skinned knees
and dialtones,
cricketsong and the gentle
tapping of pebbles
skipping down the sidewalk,
our barefeet
scuffed and stained
longing for the soft grass to come.

I’m excited about the progress I’m making, and I’m unhappy with the striping of the color variation in the yarn. I started alternating skeins and I feel it is super obvious and feels messy.

i think theres beauty in what is tied together through allegory. i had no association for crickets and ladybugs before, but now cricketsong reminds me of caring for you; now ladybugs remind me of long lost childhood friends and rumors of homophobic prejudice.

I’m driving with the windows down, serenaded by The Cranberries and cricketsong. The warm air blows on my face and the pizza in the passenger seat stays cold. I drive to the library, taking the route I know by heart.
At last, it feels like summer.
