I have finally concluded that it's impossible to calibrate the colors on my laptop correctly. Which means anything I draw digitally won't look right :( I've realized that my laptop simply doesn't have a lot of color "depth", so what looks like a dim red to me is actually a vivid red! You might've noticed the crazy saturation recently. Besides buying a whole new laptop, I'm not sure what I can do about this, but I'll look into it...

This is one of the many, many granny squares I've made so far that will be turned into a pair of pants! As you can see it's quite hole-y so I've also made some more filled in squares for the waist/crotch area lol. But with those I made a mistake that also caused several holes so I'll just have to cover them up with pockets haha 
! I'm following this tutorial for converting all these squares into actual pants.

Halloooooo, here's a little update on the (extremely late) Christmas present. I don't know why embroidering this specific projects feels SO much harder than any other time I've done it! Lol
I decided to make an experimental decision because I knew I didn't have enough white thread to satin stitch the whole stomach area. Instead I used a piece of white felt! I think it does look a little hokey but it also adds a really soft, touchable, textural element. It reminds me of those kids books which have fabric in them that you can touch, haha. I kind of really like it for that!

Thiiiiiis is my very long term crochet project: making the gamecube disc for Resident Evil 4! Over the summer I was really getting the urge to work on another big, big project like my floor-to-ceiling jellyfish sculpture/lamp, and suddenly this idea popped into my head and I went: "oh shit 
" because I realized I really, really wanted this object to exist now. I had to make it. So here I am, several months in with only about 1/3rd of it done. It's roughly 40in wide now!
The pattern was made by uploading an image of the disc into stitchfiddle (a wonderful online resource worth paying for). You can see the full pattern to the right here, and the highlighted line is what I'm on right now.

This is an embroidery project that is a (late) Christmas present to my boyfriend of his cat :3 idk why but I really struggled with this to actually make the edges look how I intended them to! Luckily he's very sweet and doesn't mind, haha. I think I'm going to do her white stomach with felt + embroidery because I don't actually have enough white thread to fill it in. And then at certain points around the outside I'm going to put some colorful beads!

I've taken up crochet over this summer! It's been a good way to fill up time now that I've deleted Instagram haha. The frog was my first project and is a kit from Crochetta, and the jellyfish was a free pattern I found.
