I THINK the only ones I had in my cart were mystery/surprise yarn boxes. But there were no images and the title was just listed as "this item is no longer available."

actually, i hate when that happens.

also on youtube, when it tells you the vid is no longer available but not what vid it was.

That is the worst!
Just tell me what this mystery item was so I know if I still want it and can find something similar! *shakes fist at Amazon*

i know, right? *growls*

Derpy waddles in. "Yeah! Grrrr! ...what are we growling at?"

Amazon being mean.

I've got a friend currently pissed at FedEx because they keep changing the delivery date on two packages

I keep bouncing between projects in varying states of progress, but I wouldn't have it any other way.

Am trying to talk myself into working on the custom cat I need to finish. I don't wanna because it's a real bitch with all the color changing on the face and legs to do. XP

Mek I wanna eat your avi

Trying to find one of my yarn winders so I can separate out some balls of the black and white yarns to make the color changes more seamless when it comes to sewing the face up.
As I discovered with the body, if I don't twist the yarns at each side of the color changes, I end up with a lot of loose stitches to sew up later. XP

Mine are pretty simple ones you have to crank by hand, but they work pretty well. The one that clamps to the table is better than the other one because I can turn the handle crank with one hand and use the other hand to keep the yarn tension so it makes a good yarn cake instead of a misshapen lump.
Lol.

Yay! schlorp
Delicious

Have mapped out rows for the cat face and am working on it now. And holy hell my yarn is looking like such a freaking mess....
Hopefully it turns out pretty close so I don't have to re-do it. XP

Here's hoping it turns out well

Some time in the future this page is gonna look weird cuz mek changed their avi

Cat face is about half made. Have 3 more rows on the second ear to finish row 10 out of 21 rows. XP
It's hard to tell, but I think it may look okay so far...

working on my sleeve things.

I want to change my avi but despite having a lot of stuff, I don't have much that matches
Oof

Meow.

kitty!

that's adorable!

It was a massive pain in the ass and I think I did the ear rows backwards so the back side of the cat is actually mirrored from how it's supposed to be. And I did too much black on one side of the face and because it was such a bitch to make I did the "lazy" fix, instead of remaking the head, and just attempted to stitch over the black stitches with white yarn.
Except a couple small threads/stitches, I don't think that's too noticeable though.

Now just gotta make 2 legs, remake 1 other leg, and finish assembling!

shush, don't tell anyone and no one will notice. it looks just fine to me. :D

Yeah....it is for a custom order....but hopefully they don't notice... xD

if you don't say anything, no one will notice. :)

Lol. For as little space as I covered, the before and afters are actually kind of dramatically different. XD

What I was trying to make

What I actually made

And then fixed is the previously shown image but I'll post again for easier comparison...

still cute!! :D

Lol. Thanks.
I think/hope it's close enough.
But either way, I'm not redoing the gd head.
XD

yeah, i hear you there.

Hopefully they love it. I think it is great.

Looks good so far

bouncing to a different project now...

Looks really good

Beautifully made! That must have taken quite somentime with all the small details!

Update on my custom order cat: have 1 leg to make, then it just needs some minor assembly and to have the eyes stitched on! Am going to try really hard to get it done on or before Tuesday so I can hopefully get paid and have it and the frog mailed out next week! XP
Of course this all hinges on my cold not getting worse. Because right now, other than being excessively phlegmy, I'm not feeling that bad.

Making all those stupid bricks by hand took forever. XD

Drink lots of hot tea!

I bet!

And making some hot tea now. My go-to drink when I have a cold is hot tea with a little lemon and honey.

That's a great go to. Those are really great add ins to help a sore throat and compromised immune system.
