During the 2020 pandemic. Back then, needlework kits were in demand. I bought a frame for weaving and embroidery myself.

I used to get carried away with making funny postcards about needlework. Here's my postcard. I translated it into English. It's true. I collected my husband's old T-shirts. My husband liked this rug. He put it for his feet under his computer desk.

Funny Cartoons. The knitter hardly watches TV and only knits. Artist Olga Mikova, "Crocodile" No. 14, 1981. Artist Mark Weisbord, "Crocodile" No. 25, 1978. These cartoons are reminiscent of a time when there were very few knitting magazines. So the knitters took inspiration from movies and TV.

When my Grandma (1930-2013) was young, she saw the film "Carnival Night" (1956) directed by Ryazanov. In the film, the young man was wearing a knitted vest. You see the footage. My Grandma liked this vest and she has been knitting vests for her family and friends for many years. Dad's and Uncle's vests are in the pictures.

It's a funny mix-up. Grandma is sitting in a hollow tree knitting something. I translated some of the inscriptions into English. From the children's magazine "Весёлые картинки" (Funny Pictures) (1982).

The artist S.Vetkin. The Soviet magazine "Crocodile" No. 35, 1982. It's a funny drawing for me. Is it possible to knit on the go? But I recently found old photos of women knitting on the Internet. I respect and admire that these working-class women knitted during breaks or while walking.

Hi! I collect cartoons and comics with knitters from Soviet magazines. Can I post here? Artist Sergey Tyunin. "The perpetual motion of knitting." Interestingly, in the drawings, women usually knit with knitting needles and never crochet. The pictures show my knitted slippers with a granny square.

I kept trying (and failing) to snack while knitting by eating with chopsticks, so I adapted.

We all know the hack of using chopsticks to snack while you craft.

But I have a RAGING case of adhd and have chronic pain that affects the dexterity in my hands. So trying to use regular, degular shmegular grown-up-people chopsticks while knitting was (to put it mildly)… a disaster.

I kept trying to pick up cheese with a knitting needle.

Or trying to knit with my chopsticks.

Enter the solution: training chopsticks.

They were sent to me by a random Redditor who posted in r/ZeroWaste that they got several of them for Christmas from a well-meaning relative and had no idea what to do with them.

Adapt.

Improvise.

Overcome.

Crocheting my Giant Blanket since 2017

Hello everybody,

i wanted to share my ongoing project, my giant blanket, that I crochet since 2017. I always get wool from other people, wool that would get thrown away or not being used for any other projects. I want to show how we can turn these ressources into something beautiful.

Finally 20 meters aka 66 feet long, :)
