Ok, mal in die Deutsche #Maker und #Bastel Community gefragt:
Wenn ich mir von einem Deutschen Versender (mit Impressum, usw.) einen Bausatz fuer eine #BookNook kaufen will und das NICHT bei Amazon machen moechte: Wo geh ich da hin? Hat jemand ne Empfehlung bei der eins gute Erfahrungen gemacht hat?

PS: ich kann selber Google bedienen, es geht um eigene (positive) Erfahrungen!

In the home stretch on this Ivy Scarf #WIP!

Just the narrow end to knit, then wet block, then gift to the CNA Marietta... A thank you to honor her extra effort and many small kindnesses.

Next up? Complete the Harris Hood for Nash The Nurse, then join the Romi Hill #MKAL in May!

Making #pysanky the exciting stage: wiping away the wax!

I need a momentary button switch (a reset button) that can solder into one of these through-hole pairs, more often used for jumper pins. I can't find any with simply through pins - such buttons always have the rounded fin connectors with an in-bored hole.

Anyone know where I can find such a button? Thanks.

Excellent reference on which adhesives can be used for specific materials.

I like to follow certain sectors to stay current on color trends, and that includes nail polish. This is the OPI'm Dreamin' Spring 2025 collection. The polishes have a subtle shimmer to them, giving them an airy feel.

Expect to see these shades in places like makeup, textiles, and yes, yarns, especially from quick turn-around indie dyers who follow such things.

For #WIPWednesday I present to you the Ivy Scarf, right at the halfway point of what will be a large triangle... yay! Light as a feather. Gift for a very helpful medical aide here.

#askfedi #maker I have a collection of #dolls and this is the first stand I’ve found that truly fits them well. Are there any #makers who could #3dprint or use #clay to make similar top pieces and round/oval bases for them? I also really like the metal part in the middle. How would I find such people? Thanks for any leads. #3dprinting #polymerclay #crafting

More on the Ivy Scarf, kerchief option, worked in Classic Elite Giselle mohair, color Cloud.

All charted, it's a surprisingly easy pattern to follow. Also offers long narrow version in two sizes.

Trying for one chart done daily. There are six, A through F. This is one of those times when it's helpful to have several WIPs going at once - I can switch back and forth.

I made three different playing card cases to see if I could figure out the patterns, without having them, and to see for myself what they would look like. The first was easy enough to make but needlessly fussy. The second is the simplest and least time consuming. The third is most traditional but I think I like it best. #LeatherCraft #DIY #maker #leather

Hach ich bin schon gut manchmal.
Gerade Nachricht erhalten, dass sich ein Sponsor für das kitec-Projekt an meiner neuen Schule gefunden hat, der den ganzen Bums finanziert.

Ja ich weiß ist Drittmittelzeug. Aber da war nie was mit Einmischung in Bildunginhalte, Werbung oder ähnliches.

Edit.

New #WIP! This one is a triangular kerchief for a medical aide here, Marietta, who has been very helpful with me and my recovery.

Pattern is the Ivy Scarf, yarn is Classic Elite Giselle in the color Cloud, US4 ChiaoGoo needles. It's weightless, and except for the tinking back and frogging experience, a delight to knit with!

Ye Olde Stack 'O Swatches. Amazing how each one holds a memory. And, can see how my swatching in particular and knitting in general have improved.

Reflecting - This art/craft of ours is blessedly diverse. Some days I want to knit all the things. Other days it's sorting scraps, a match for the spoons I have.

I feel so blessed to have the chance to begin again with fiber arts. <gratitude>
