Meet Jade, my first try at making a Dragon Amigurumi. 馃悏

I wanted to get a feel for the pattern and construction and used fingering scraps. Looking back, probably not my best choice, but it sure gave me a steep learning curve!



Pattern: Dragon by Megan Lapp (Crafty Intentions) from the book "Crochet Creatures of Myth and Legend"

The dragon features large, structured wings with a dark green ridge, a textured body, and expressive black eyes. Its face is detailed with protruding ears and a frilled neck, evoking a fantasy creature. Behind it, a decorative panel with a tree design adds a mystical backdrop, enhancing the handcrafted, whimsical atmosphere.

Hey fiberfolk, I'm looking to rehome (in the US) this mini-skein of sock yarn. I believe it to be 75% merino, 25% nylon, 88yds, but the artist didn't include a label for it. (But that's what the other yarn I received was.)

It's a hand-dyed bit in dark gold and browns with a touch of white. Will mail out... eventually, so not a rush job.

ETA: It's taken!

Starlink tries to block Virginia鈥檚 plan to bring fiber Internet to residents

Starlink operator SpaceX is fighting Virginia's plan to deploy fiber Internet service to residents, claiming that federal grant money should be given to Starlink instead. SpaceX is already in line to win over $3 million in grant money in the state but is seeking $60 million.

The Pok茅mon Gang together. 馃槃

Three crocheted Pok茅mon characters鈥擲quirtle, Charizard, and Bulbasaur鈥攕it on a grassy patch outdoors. Squirtle, on the left, is blue with a brown shell; Charizard, in the center, is orange with wings and a flame-tipped tail; and Bulbasaur, on the right, is green with a bulb on its back. The handmade figures are crafted in amigurumi style, and surrounded by natural textures like grass, leaves, and a tree trunk, adding charm to their woodland setting.

Checking in with a WIP. 馃槃 This is my Relax Project to give my fingers a rest from all the Amigurumis.

Pattern is Wildberry Shawl by SisHomemade

Yarn is Hobbii Twister in color Fairytale and it will actually go into dark teal for the edge.

A partially completed handmade triangle-shaped crochet shawl displayed on a light, neutral-toned surface. The yarn transitions in a soft gradient from pale pink at the top through yellow and into fresh mint green. The stitch pattern is lacy and open, featuring shell stitches and chain spaces that create a delicate, fan-like texture as the shawl expands.

The "Eurostack" is a (long overdue) project to publicly fund a European "stack" of technology that is independent from American Big Tech (as well as other powers' technology that has less hold in Europe, such as Chinese and Russian tech):
