Bro I'm not a mod on that subreddit, I didn't remove your post. Your post got removed because you were being a jerk. You created an object that looks like a T-Rex fossil toy crossed with a stealth meteor, and gave no explanation on what this object means to you, it's creator.

Might as well just get a totally different color and say you planned to do one cuff different the whole time for all the luck you'll have finding the right dye lot 😂

Ok this is fascinating. Did you crochet the thing first and then see it to the T-shirt, which is the only way I can see this working, or did you somehow surface crochet right into the T-shirt?

Ooooh I've seen that icord tool before that makes sense. I've chained a few of my drop spindle 2 plys before to turn them into functional cord before for things like hanging my diz and wpi tool but never considered doing this to my singles!

That yarn is so shiny I thought it was viscose or silk at first!! Not sure if that's worsted spinning, or the variegation giving it that effect but either way wow!

Air travel knitting just hits different. My first lace project for #showmeyourknits Hoping to finish this while the weather will still permit me to wear it. Next year I knit summer wear in winter and winter wear in summer so I don't need to wait a year to wear my knits #knitsky #fiber #craft

Went to MD sheep and wool today and picked up my first Turkish spindle. Went with a Snyder as I'd heard only good things. @senesced.bsky.social I feel like you'd approve

My new years resolution was not buying single skeins without a plan and the way I'm sticking to it is by just buying fiber and spinning my own skeins 😂

Also good quality carding pads are available online for pretty cheap. If cost is an issue and you have to diy might as well do it right

Gorgeous! What do you use to make the batts? Guessing with as much fiber as you probably process a drum carder? Trying to figure out how to use my waste from combing to do something similar but probably can't afford a drum carder right now

Got myself a comb and hackle set and made my first three birds nests. Can't wait to see how these spin up compared to the fairly textured batt they came from. Next goal is learn to comb with less waste material if possible #fiberprep #comb #hackle #handspinning
Three birds nest shaped bundles of white wool that has been freshly combed. The rightmost bundle appears yellowish due to the density of the fibers. The bundles lay on a desk mat which is covered in a cute illustration of chubby frogs working in a garden shed.

Thanks! Yeah I'm really excited for it, I thought it would take me longer to get to where if feel like my spinning can make a decent hat but here I am lol I already ordered more of the cinnamon color and gonna try and blend it with a little cream to add some variation for the other half of the hat

All skeined up. Think I'll spin another skein of just the cinnamon color for the other half of a Musselburgh 🧶 #spinning #handspun #knitting

Now I just need to spin another similar length and try and match the gauge bc I think this is only enough for half the hat 😂 I fear that will be the yard part haha
