After scrolling through a bajillion pages of the current fad for greige 10 mohairs held together plain sweaters, I have finally found a designer worth buying patterns from! If only they had this scale pattern on a sweater!

Ok. This is pretty neat. Makes me wish I knew how to knit.

Tragically, all the good tentacles are crocheted, not knit.

BTW, if anyone knows other Ravelry designers who give off similar vibes to Lavish Craft, I want their names! Or just your favorite designers in general as long as they aren’t PetiteKnit.

I’ve seen a lot of designs that are incidentally named after things from fantasy books, but the actual look of the piece wouldn’t tell you what it’s inspired by. I’m more interested in designers doing dragon scale designs or at least sweaters I can picture on a hobbit.

Fabel Knitwear has some pretty stuff, but I hear her gauge is weird af and her patterns are confusing. I have the Montmartre but haven’t made a serious attempt at it yet, so we’ll see what I think. I’m not finding the instructions bad, but I agree with all the nitpickers that her own knitting is that trendy airy bullshit where the needles are 5 sizes too big and you’re making up for it with hairy yarns. My sense is that she’s one of those designers whose shots of herself in samples are by far the best thing about the designs.

I’ve spotted a couple of things I want from Skeindeer Knits. Lots of classic looks there that I can’t easily get from a store.

I think the name 🌣∘∙𐐪𐑂 Marimo 𐐪𐑂∙∘🌣 seems fitting for this round little toad. They just look so much like a marimo moss ball (or a bunch of them gathered together), because of the puffy green yarn I used. 

The yarn was a little hard to work with, but I think I was able to get used to it alright. I used two dark olive green buttons for eyes and some olive-brownish fabric for a little tongue.

crochet reblog i love this so much maybe a weird compliment but at first glance i thought this was an electron microscope image and let me tell you it's my dream to touch those microscopic textures so i really want nothing more than to squeeze this frog the buttons you choose for the eyes are also perfection oh wait toad not frog
