Crochet Blankets

            In the last week I've gone and fucked up my sleep schedule AGAIN! Ghhaaaa I'm such an idiot. So tonight I'm staying up as late as I can(probably 3-4am) and then get up early, well early for me anyways(perhaps 10am) I've been going to bed at 4am and not waking up until 1pm, not good. That is how my natural sleep schedule works, but unfortunately that's not the time the rest of the world runs on.
             So here I am, alone, binge watching the X files and crocheting baby hats, while my husband sleeps peacefully in the other room, well actually he's probably talking in his sleep and fighting dream monsters like a fucking tool. Gawl sleep much? Anywho I thought since I'm bored af, I'd put some blankets I've made on here for no reason.



This one is a C2C blanket I made with some discontinued baby yarn(I think it's from Bernat) it's very pretty in person, pink and blue with a metallic bit laced through it. I made it for a friend who had a little baby girl.



This one I made for my niece when she was six, just basic DC all the way through. It's made entirely with dollar tree yarn. It cost me under $15 to make and two years later she still has it, and even shares it with the cat.




This one I am exceptionally proud of. It's called the morning light baby blanket, and it's from allfreecrochet.com . I  found the yarn(Bernat baby sport) at the Salvation Army. I basically ran home and jumped on pintrest like the giant nerd that I am, I went looking for a pattern.  I picked this pattern because it looked easy, hahahahahaha oh boy was I wrong. It took me 6 months to finish the blanket. It only took about half an hour to make the bonnet, I didn't use a pattern for the bonnet and have no memory of how I made it, it's pretty cute though.


Well that's it for now, that's all I got. I'm gonna go be bored now and finish another hat, plus I got the last season 6 episode of X files to watch, it's not gonna watch itself. Plus I got 30 inches of hair to comb through, and that's just my ass hair.

Crochet pussy hat

Wow, I can't believe I've managed to get anything done in the last few days. After experiencing a major depressive meltdown, panic attacks and developing a cold, I've been pretty much out of comish. But I somehow managed to create an extremely simple pattern for a pussy hat. So far I've had one order for plain pink, two for pink and red, one for black and grey and one pure black. I'm still not functioning quite yet, and I'm drinking too much. Being crazy is hard when you're still sane enough to know you're crazy. I honestly can't believe I survived this as a child, it's a living hell. I'm very lucky to have my hilarious family and husband. Yeah somebody actually married this crazy bitch. I wouldn't get through this without vulgar humour constantly being thrown at me. So this is one thing I still managed to do, and like all my patterns, it's deceptively simple.

Crochet Chunky Men's Hat

About a month ago I made myself and my husband matching hats, I got some new Bernat Chunky yarn and wanted to play with it because I'm a giant dork. So hats it was, we needed some anyways. It doesn't get as cold here as most of the rest of Canada, maybe -8 c at the absolute lowest and only at night, still nice to have winter hats though. Well my husband(Ryan) is obsessed with his, he never takes it off. It's already worn down and looks a million years old because he wears it at work all day. But in all fairness, he looks a million years old to so..... The originals  Today Ryan came home and said his boss has been bugging him for a hat like his, and since I'm FUCKING AMAZING I obliged. I wanted to return some of the blue softee chunky yarn I had bought the day before anyways because it turns out I hate it, oops. So I went and exchanged it for grey(the only good mens colour they had) and got straight to work. I absolutely love this hat, it only takes abou...

Off ssris for two whole weeks!

               Just in case you haven't figured it out yet, I'm effing crazy and coming off my crazy pills is hard. It's been easier this time than it was last time though, probably because I now know to taper off as much as possible before actually quitting(live and learn). It been two weeks now and I gotta say, I feel a lot better. I'm still really bitchy, crank all day, no patience...my poor husband :( Ryan's been so good about it though, he's kept his calm the whole time. He's been planning hikes every couple of days and getting everything packed. He knows I love being outdoors and he knows I need to excercise when I'm sick, more than I actually want to excercise. So he does all of this, as well as going to work every day, he's awesome!                I've had one thing going for me lately, I started a temperature blanket this year(I know, crochet basic bitch lol). It has helped a lot because on the day...
