Haha thank you! The basic version is out now but the fancy one is still a work in progress, I’ll keep you posted 😊

It’s been a bit of a roller coaster (for everybody, really!), but I’m good. I hope you’ve been doing well too 😊

Not too long actually, I probably spent a week practicing swatches and figuring out yarn, and a week ish of actually making it. And I don’t have a ton of knit/crochet time

It looks so good, I love that colorway you picked! I feel you, I have so many languishing projects, I can practically hear them screaming at me every time my head turns for a new pattern 😅

Just finished this hat, loved the pattern. I’d never seen crochet like it before. If you need to concentrate on something besides horrors for a bit, I definitely recommend it. 🧶 #crochet #yarn #yarnsky #crochetsky www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

Thank you! I’d never really considered socks before, but that heel turn was pretty fun

In honor of #socktober, here’s the closest thing I’ve done to a sock. My then-almost-2-year-old was obsessed with ducks at the time. The white yarn was from my stash and in retrospect too thick-thin for colorwork, but I still think it turned out pretty cute. 🦆 #knitting 🧶

His fantasy of left-wing vengeance and how cool it will be baffles me about as much as the rise of “anti-fascist” and “social justice warrior” as pejoratives. Like that sounds rad as hell. Who tf wants to be against that.

In 2007 I saw Hot Fuzz in the theaters and it took my mind off a rough breakup. Since then it’s been my comfort watch in troubled times. Definitely watched the Daily Show and then busted it out tonight. By now @numi.st and I can quote half of it by heart. Thanks @edgarwright.bsky.social

Ooh that sounds gorgeous though

Tanya Breshears @tab.anomalous.works · 18/09/2025

Ooh yeah that’s always hard! I tried this with a couple different options for the dark yarn at first. If I make another I’ll probably go with something a little less contrasty for the variegated part

I saw this pattern and pounced at the chance to use a skein of variegated yarn I’ve had kicking around for years. It’s the Luminos Tee, a fun knit and clever construction. I took some nail-biting liberties to get it to work in sport weight, and I’m pleasantly surprised by how well it fits haha.

That'd be so cool! I'm a fan of StichFiddle.com for creating charts, and they have a pretty standardized way of annotating instructions -- if my app has legs I've thought about trying to automatically read stitchfiddle patterns to show row-by-row instructions. Definitely a bigger project though!

Congratulations! These are so beautiful

Tanya Breshears @tab.anomalous.works · 11/09/2025

It can be intimidating to make something and then send it off to the void to hope other people like it, so it was so heartening to see so many lovely responses to my app. Thank you everyone ❤️💜

Throwback to the one time I published a (free) pattern. It gave me a whole new respect for the art of good pattern writing -- and gave me Science Olympiad "Write It Do It" flashbacks 😂 www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

Changing Seasons Baby Blanket pattern by Tanya Breshears

When I was pregnant with my now-two-year-old daughter, I scoured the internet for baby blanket patterns. I love the texture and flow of lacework, but also wanted to incorporate color changes in a way ...

Thank you so much, and what a cool pattern! Lmk if you have any feedback on the repeat section tracker as you use it, I’ve been thinking about ways to expand it (like adding pattern notes etc) ☺️

Yay, hope you like it! ☺️ Apps connecting to the watch are a little bit slow which I don’t love, but I’m hoping it gets faster as Apple makes updates

It was episode 4 that really grabbed me. But it’s also been a few years since I read the books, so my memory wasn’t super fresh going in, that may or may not have made a difference

Tanya Breshears @tab.anomalous.works · 06/06/2025

I was skeptical the TV adaptation could capture the spirit of the books, but I'm amped about Murderbot so far. I even roped @numi.st into watching it 🥳
