I’ll take a little break and be at @halifaxpride for the QTBIPOC event, MelaNation, July 16th at 9pm, then back for the community market after the parade on Saturday July 18th. Both Halifax events are at the Garrison Grounds.

hey, everyone! It’s officially Pride month! Dropping in here with my Pride season schedule. All of these locations are outdoors (@avalleypride may shift, but will still be in Kentville if it does), so please dress accordingly, bring water and wear sunscreen if needed. 1/2

With the new hardware, there will be a price bump to $15 each to account for extra cost and time in creating them. I hope you all enjoy the new clasps and hopefully they will be easier to put on individually without a friend to help now. ☺️

New bracelet hardware! I've changed over all my bracelets from ties to lobster clasps. Since the size of the bracelets can fluctuate with my tension while crocheting, this will allow some adjustment in size. I will bring my chain and pliers in case someone needs their bracelet sized up.

PDF patterns are now available on Ko-Fi! I currently have the Pronouns, Queer As Fuck, and Homo Sweet Homo patterns up as well as a jack-o-lantern and ghost pattern up. So if you’re a person who has enough supplies, or doesn’t want to deal with the shipping, here’s an option for you!

The 14 stitches per inch aida that you will stitch on will have the design drawn on with a heat erase pen (pronoun kits are an exception and have an explanation about how to transfer the design). A color instruction booklet with the pattern in the back.

There is a 4" hoop and, if needed, a piece of Heat and Bond.

The envelope has a picture of the finished product you will make out of the kit, plus a sticker on the back telling you what's inside. There are precut threads knotted beside their DMC number. The size 24 tapestry needle is taped to the back.

Radical Cat Creations (xe/they) @radicalcatcreates.bsky.social · 06/05/2026
Have you wondered what comes in the kits I make? Here's a rundown! The sticker on the back includes what you will need to provide. For the most part, this is just scissors and an iron! Remember, you can find my kits at @makersstudiowindsor @capeandcowlcomics @opensecretsbooks and @venusenvyhfx !

Pronouns are available at @capeandcowlcomics and @makersstudiowindsor . All three kits are available at @venusenvyhfx . Pride month is upon us in 31 days, so grab a kit and get to work!

Radical Cat Creations (xe/they) @radicalcatcreates.bsky.social · 01/05/2026
The Pronouns kit makes two patches. Includes directions for "they", "xe", "she", and "he", and the colors to do trans, non-binary, or genderqueer flags as the background color. There are directions on how to transfer these designs to your fabric and I will have video shortly. $40 at retailers.

Were you wondering what my new kits are? Here you go! The Queer As Fuck kit makes one patch with either all black text or colored text as shown. $35 at retailers. The Homo Sweet Homo kit makes a larger piece for decoration in your home. The dimensions are roughly 6.5"x6.5". $40 at retailers. 1/2

Just working on some kits going to Venus Envy, Cape and Cowl and Makers Studio at the end of the month. Get your kits to make your own iron on pronoun patches so you can be ready in time for Pride month!

The upside to that is you're not going to accidentally strike the metal! I did that and broke a needle once. Scared the heck out of me. 😅

Yes, I do! Trying to get better with uploading here. :p

Just a little progression through the leather pride flag!

I feel like this doesn't always get mentioned, but when I'm pulling the shuttle thread tight, I make sure to slack my index finger on the hand holding the circle of thread. That allows for the slack needed to flip the knot.

And yet, as a Canadian, I would *specify* North American if I used the term American, but I'd more likely say Canadian. You'd look cooler if you just specified when you know. Know better, do better. 🤷🏾

No, if the name of the actual nation is known, you use it. Would you call someone from Germany just European if you knew they were German?

Also Google the author and what else they've done. I saw someone point out once that they could also only find one picture of the author no matter where they found it.

No options for gift purchases or anything? That sucks so many got spoiled.

@sparrowspite.com does some really cool pieces. You might find something you like or at least get ideas on what you can do with it that isn't wearing the piece.

You can always just do swatches with different hook sizes to see how you like the density of the fabric. For my amis, I like a 4mm hook with worsted weight, but your tension will affect what you like!

Depends on what you mean by people different than you because I keep seeing people use that kind of phrasing to say we should tolerate hateful attitudes that cause harm because it's "a difference in opinion".

I find it's a little more stretchy than your typical chain, just FYI, if you need to measure out the item you are making yourself. I use it as a base for bracelets I make and when I did the chain, I would do 50-55 stitches, now I do 40-45.

Have you tried doing a foundation single crochet row? It lets you make the first row at the same time as you make the chain. share.google/shwqtv7kTjye...

They are gorgeous! Would you be open to commissions in the future? I would like to get a wood shuttle with a hook, but none of the ones you have currently call to me.

Hey! I know, I'm so quiet on here. But I've been working away on new things for Pride. In the meantime, I thought I would put up a list of the events I'll be at in the next few weeks. Hope I see you soon!

Living in larger groups is one of the reasons science thinks we outlived our Neanderthal cousins, too.

You know, I hadn't thought of that but I do collect reference books because it's easier for me to find something in a physical copy versus digital. Dual purpose!
