Time to sew 11 tiny buttons, plus a spare, onto a linen blouse that has been languishing in the mending pile for years because I lost half the nice little metal buttons I had bought for it.
Now I have some tiny plastic ones because the one place I could safely get buttons in person* has few buttons. At least they’re a good color and washable.
* freemanscreative.com/ - excellent masking requirements! Great yarn & fabric.

in reply to Naomi P • • •I am currently languishing in the "I don't have any* yarn and my pakige isn't here yet!"
* and by "any" I mean "the precise yarn I was wanting for my latest project, not any of the yarns I've planned or prior projects"

in reply to Naomi P • • •It's going to be amazing though. I'm making some divination stuff for me and my co-sinner: A "dragon scale" rune bag, a wrap-around tarot deck pouch and (eventually, depending on how much yarn I have left) a nice divination cloth.
There was a sale on a *gorgeous* smooth metallic yarn, so he's getting sapphire-silver and I'm getting brown-gold, and then we have one skein of thinner in "petrol" tones (one towards blue, one towards green), which we'll pick as an accent colour.

in reply to Elena ``of Valhalla'' • • •Yes, exactly! At this point they're expecting me to survive until tomorrow or wednesday without (more) yarn!
I did get the clay today, which I should try to work *some* with

I hope that the yarn will enjoy the scenic route, at least :)

in reply to Naomi P • • •It is a lot of fun! Just that this particular pattern is sometimes not exactly ... *helpful*
But, it'll be beautiful enough. It just does not frog well. at all.
Me: *noticing I've missed some stitches in a place* "Oh well" <.<
