Working for free… Something none of us should ever really do, is something I’ve been doing. I’ve been very much enjoying Habitica, and wanted to be able to give back (you know, other than maintaining a subscription). There are various ways that you can contributeto Habitica — you can do art (this is what I… Read More Working on Habitica
So a couple of weeks ago, Neb made yogurt in the crock pot. This took a very, very long time, and involved the crock pot having to heat up the milk, letting it cool, then mixing in your start, and letting it sit and incubate for hours. It was pretty much an all day event,… Read More Yogurt Round 2, Fight!
To be honest, I don’t think I have a lot of goals for this year. I feel like I have more of random bits and bobs that I want to accomplish.. Perhaps that’s just me being pessimistic, however. Stream Goals Stream more Get Affiliate Get Partner, or at least make good effort toward it Do… Read More Goals for 2019
So, I received a heat press a few days ago, and finally got around to using it. I’ve made shirts before, by using an iron, which is a bit of a pain in the ass to be honest. Irons are such a small footprint, and it’s hard to keep pressure on them. I’ve seen posts… Read More My first go with my new heat press
Hasn’t it? Now the question is, do I just go ahead and continue, or do I remove old posts to start fresh? It’s quite the quandary, isn’t it? Well, I suppose it really is trivial given the realm of one’s life, but I digress! It’s been an exciting couple of days for me, though, in… Read More Sheesh… It’s been a while
My local yarn shop (or LYS) has started a year-long knit-a-long (or KAL!) for a very awesome project. It’s called My Favorite Things, and you can find the pattern by following this link here to Ravelry. The project is an infinity style scarf, worked with Fair Isle. The concept is to do each section, or… Read More Fiber Friday: Fair Isle Fun!
This week I received a Silhouette Cameo, so I’ve been playing around, learning how to use the software, and printing stickers! My first few attempts went rather poorly (and I wasted a lot of paper 🙁 ), thanks to a wonky blade that came with my Cameo. Thankfully, I got a bundle deal that included… Read More The Joys of a Die-Cut Machine
My Printrbot Metal Plus 3D printer came yesterday, woo! Well, I suppose I’ll get on with the photos! It’s a pretty beastly thing with a 10″ square print area. So far I’m working through expected first-time-user issues with it, but hopefully I’ll get it all straightened out soon! Initial test print went well… Once I… Read More Printrbot Metal Plus Unboxing and First Prints
Today I received my Unbirthday Smog from Nunoco! This particular box featured about 450g of fiber, in several mini batts, tops, etc. Expect a review sometime later, after I’ve actually had a chance to play with the fibers. This is my first purchase from Nunoco, and it’s looking good so far! Anywho… On to… Read More Nunoco Unbirthday Smorg: Unboxing
For the past 3 years I have gone to our little local fiber festival — Fiber Train. Apparently, it has only been going on for that long, which I had no idea about. I thought it started the year before I went! Anywho, I digress. Fiber Train, every year I have gone, has been on… Read More Fiber Train Festival 2014
