I keep finding more things to add to it and it makes me so very happy.

Gallagher 11-13-2017 01:48 PM

the apron is honestly a little too perfect on the hotdog

trystan830 11-13-2017 01:52 PM

Mekatra - i sent you some extra goodies too! =)

Mekatra 11-13-2017 01:53 PM

AHH Thank you!

You have no idea how happy I was when the apron fit on there and looked right.

trystan830 11-13-2017 01:56 PM

you're quite welcome!

Glitch 11-13-2017 02:26 PM

oh my gosh you guys are too much!!

Espy 11-13-2017 02:41 PM

We...do have a few whip items...which I could tag for you if only my inventory wasn't so bloated that it keeps crashing my browser.

Mekatra 11-13-2017 03:08 PM

I'll find them over time. Part of the fun of a new avatar site is digging in and finding new things. You guys have all been so helpful so far.

Plus, I feel like I need to sit back and amass a bit of a fortune of my own making before I go shopping again lol.

Gallagher 11-13-2017 03:09 PM

amass for tomorrow, when i do our weekly commons release

Mekatra 11-13-2017 03:17 PM

I shall post like the wind then. Luckily it is my day off so I have nothing better to do with myself other than play around online (okay I am supposed to be spinning today but it is chilly outside and I don't wanna do flax inside.)

Gallagher 11-13-2017 03:18 PM

i'm a busybee today

or i'm supposed to be, haha

Mekatra 11-13-2017 03:21 PM

Everyone has to take breaks on occasion. Don't overwork yourself!

But also don't fool around too much lol.

Glitch 11-13-2017 03:30 PM

*spies on galla* ouo

Gallagher 11-13-2017 03:36 PM

FOOLS AROUND HARDER

Mekatra 11-13-2017 03:48 PM

No...stop...don't do it...

Ugh I have to actually put on real clothes and run to the store.

Gallagher 11-13-2017 03:49 PM

lame

i lowkey haven't started any of the rig items that i need to have done in 2 days and i have to go running around for irl nonsense tomorrow so lol i'm about to have a fun next 12 hours

trystan830 11-13-2017 03:55 PM

i'm almost done work! i finish 3 p.m. eastern time, mon-thurs. today after work, i'm picking up younger daughter and a friend, and taking friend home. when younger daughter and i get home, i have a show from friday to catch up on and some crocheting to work on. =)

Mekatra 11-13-2017 04:01 PM

I believe in you!

Glitch 11-13-2017 04:24 PM

I finished my work *wipes imaginary sweat away*

Mekatra 11-13-2017 04:38 PM

Woo hoo! Have a cup of tea or hot cocoa to celebrate!

Coda 11-13-2017 04:45 PM

I hope I can get done with work in time to work on my NaNoWriMo story.

Mekatra 11-13-2017 04:46 PM

I believe in you too. Do you do word sprints or crawls to make yourself go faster?

Glitch 11-13-2017 05:17 PM

i've already failed at it xD

Grimalkin 11-13-2017 05:18 PM

Hello everyone, I hope all are doing well today!

Mekatra 11-13-2017 06:26 PM

I got the yarn I was making plyed and hanging to dry. I am watching that Cooks vs. Cons show and I can't help but feel like I would enjoy it more if they were convicts instead of just home cooks pretending to be professional ones.

How're you, dear?

Grimalkin 11-13-2017 06:44 PM

Haha! That would make a good show actually, when you said cons initially that is exactly what I thought. Ooh you make yarn? That is a time consuming task isn't it?
I am doing alright, just watching The Cat in the Hat with my son, and listening to some K-Ballads. I am not ready to let Autumn go even though we have a ton of snow, so these ballads help me out hah.

trystan830 11-13-2017 07:01 PM

i've made plarn... plastic yarn. it's quite time-consuming. i made a tote bag out of my plarn~


Mekatra 11-13-2017 07:10 PM

Okay so... I know the name should be fairly self explanatory, but what the heck is plastic yarn?

It takes a bit, yeah, but I've gotten a lot faster at spinning the wool. I have a friend that can do it at nearly twice the speed I do though. I can spin maybe 200 feet of single yarn an hour if I stick to it and not take any breaks, then I have to ply it with another single so... Like a hundred feet of actual useable yarn every hour? lol

Glitch 11-13-2017 07:25 PM

probably cut up shopping bags? I mean at least, I used to have a boss who crocheted purses out of shopping bags.

Mekatra 11-13-2017 07:32 PM

Well that's utterly fascinating. :O If I were any good at crocheting I would probably give this a try and keep a couple in my car for when I go grocery shopping. I used to keep a laundry basket in my car for when I went but I broke it and keep forgetting to replace it. If I had a couple of these I could just stuff them under the seat...

Maybe I could get my mom to crochet one...

Grimalkin 11-13-2017 07:36 PM

I have never heard the word Plarn before but I absolutely love it, also your bag looks lovely! Very durable too I would imagine no?

trystan830 11-13-2017 07:41 PM

Mekatra - yep, glitch got to it before me... it's made from plastic bags, but i found that the wimpy grocery store bags broke the easiest.

here's another tutorial.


Grimalkin - actually, it is pretty durable, but i don't use it a lot actually.

Mekatra 11-13-2017 07:42 PM

Thank you for sharing the link, Glitch!

Edit: and thank you too trystan!

I think it would be an interesting possibility to make flip-flip style thong sandals out of these for people that can't afford shoes.

trystan830 11-13-2017 07:53 PM

ooh, flip-flops would be a neat idea too!

Mekatra 11-13-2017 08:02 PM

I checked it out on Pintrest, apparently there are a lot of patterns for it. None I can make because crochet is witchcraft that is out of my realm of powers, but someone as skilled as you could probably make them in your sleep.

trystan830 11-13-2017 08:03 PM

i wish i could crochet in my sleep... LOL!

Mekatra 11-13-2017 08:05 PM

Have you tried it? XD You never know, you may have a hidden talent.

I think I could probably make chainmaille in my sleep...

trystan830 11-13-2017 08:13 PM

LOL...no, i haven't tried it.... but i think i would have tried writing in my sleep during NaNo, but that didn't happen either.

(although two of my NaNos were the result of things that i dreamed though....)

Nope, I just write when I have time.
