On the go #18: Derpy’s evolution
Pinterest is a bit of an addiction for me. It’s become a little morning ritual to scroll through the app while I sip my cup of coffee and collect ideas. Most of them sadly disappear into the depths of my mind soon after, but every now and then one lingers long enough to spark something new. And that’s pretty much…

On the go #17: KPop Demon Hunters – The Derpy Spinoff
Roughly in parallel with my knitted Huntrix jumper, another KPop Demon Hunters idea started to nag at me. While I was knitting stitch after stitch, something completely different was quietly brewing in the back of my mind… something involving crochet hooks, stripes, and… a tiger. A few years ago, I came across an absolutely brilliant Cheshire Cat Halloween project on…

On the go #16: Kpop Demon Hunters – The Sequel (in Reverse)
In my previous On the Go update, I left you with a bit of a knitting dilemma: what to do with the piece of my Huntrix jumper that was already on the needles? Start over according to my second idea, or try to salvage the earlier version? That knot has since been untangled — literally. The old piece was unravelled,…

On the go #15: Kpop Demon Hunters Edition
My creative outbursts are currently completely devoted to Kpop Demon Hunters. My nieces and nephews have been in the thrall of this Netflix film for a while now, and yes, thanks to them, I also ended up on the sofa on a summery Saturday evening to watch the film. I must admit that I completely understand the hype. The film…

On the go #14
Recently, in my post about the granny summer top, I mentioned how I was craving a meditative crochet project. Something I could do mindlessly. That brought the elf coat back to the forefront of my thoughts — a project I started a while ago but abandoned once I reached the sewing stage. I’m the kind of person who likes doing…

On the go #13
For many of the recurring posts I write here, I aim to have them appear once a month. Often it takes longer than a month, sometimes because I just don’t get around to it, sometimes because I have nothing to say and sometimes because I don’t feel like it, lol. For the “on the go” posts it’s been almost a…

On the go #12
Like many crafters, I have several half-finished projects lying around. Some I started with great enthusiasm, only to lose interest along the way. Others I am absolutely certain I will finish, but I keep getting sidetracked by newer ideas. This past summer, I dug into a box of those lost/forgotten projects and made a few decisions. Picking Flowers Sweater I…

On the go #11
My making frenzy seems to have subsided somewhat last month, but I am very happy that I still regularly knit, crochet and sew! I worked on two ongoing projects, completed a request and started a new project. I haven’t continued with the embroidery/hat project from the last updated unfortunately. It will probably take me some time to work up the…

On the go #10
While reading initially appealed less to me in January, the creative itch for once persisted well after the Christmas making frenzy, resulting in me starting a couple of new things or continuing with the old. At Christmas the subject of relaxation activities came up. You probably know what I mean: puzzles, coloring books for adults, diamond painting, etc. My niece…

On the go #9
I had hoped that if I planned to blog at least monthly about my works in progress, this would provide some kind of counterbalance to my eternal indecision and doubt, and therefore encourage me to make decisions a little faster. Unfortunately, I don’t really notice much change in my behaviour as of yet, so I’m afraid this is going to…
