Fasten Off Yarn-a-long: An independent designer event We're an accessible, inclusive stitchalong event geared to promoting and supporting independent crochet and knitting designers.<br>We also love building community and giving everybody a fun time.<br>I...

🧢 So what IS the Fasten Off Yarnalong?

This is an online stitchalong event (crochet and knitting) where, to participate, you make a project using a for-pay pattern from one of our participating designers. It starts at 9pmET on November 21 (Friday!), and runs until the end of 2025.

An official driver’s license or ID is not enough to vote under the Republicans’ scam Save Act. It costs a lot and takes weeks to get a passport. No one should be required to pay ANYTHING to vote. Call your Reps and Senators, especially if they’re Republican! #Voices4Victory

We’re down to the last 2 days of January (thank goodness). Have you been inspired by others? Still working on those WIPs? I’m somewhere in between and that’s ok! Self-care is important! Finding joy is important! I hope you’re all taking care of yourselves the best way you can.

I also decided to extend the donation period to the end of the month for the #LunarNewYearCowl and I’m going to double the donation to the Asian Pacific Fund. $2 of each pattern sale is going to them to help support AANHPI in the S.F. Bay Area. Ravelry link is in my bio. Let’s do some good!

A quick moment of appreciation. Yarn is from @longdogyarn.com β€˜s Princess Bride revisit last year, pattern is #PressedFlowersCardigan. I’ve had this on my needles for a while and I’m so glad I finished it while @juliannamknits.bsky.social is hosting #wipdownjan2025! Just needs buttons.

One of my making goals this year is to actually finish other kinds of crafty projects that I really enjoy doing, but don’t spend consistent time on.

If you have multiple crafty hobbies, how do you manage your time with them?

I’m really into my newest pattern, I can’t stop working on it! The top is the first version, and the bottom is the second, better version ;) now I’m knitting the new one directly from the first one haha. I’m using Julie Asselin’s Journey Sport (a most favorite person and yarn) for this sample!
