Sundays are for taking Addi Crasy Snake dpns for a spin. I love how the wavy design keeps my stitches from sliding off!๐Ÿ

Also, Iโ€™m Summerweening hard over here.

Just a skotch of shoulder shaping gives an otherwise boxy tee, a soft bit of drape. Simple design details for modern shapes are my favorite to create. ๐Ÿ˜

The pattern for my latest design, Tee-ser Light is now available on my website and on Ravelry. Mix and match yarn pairings, customize the length, make it your own.

This boxy, cropped, open-weaved, crochet top is the kid-sister to the super-chunky, original,Tee-ser. Itโ€™s made by double-stranding a standard, fingering/sock-weight yarn with a lace-weight of something with a little texture. The resulting fabric is complex and cool. Tee-ser Light is a great project for all levels of crocheters, and is inclusively sized for bust/chest from 30โ€ณ- over 64โ€ณ/76-163cm, has lots of ease, and can be lengthened or shortened for comfort.

Happy Swatch Reveal Day! These are the four (2 knit, 2 crochet) stitch patterns stitchers will have to choose from for our Moodring, mental health temperature projects.

๐—ช๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐˜€ ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐—˜๐—บ๐—ผ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป
Undulating stripes of Garter stitch and incrementally dropped yarn-overs create waves of positive and negative space. The resulting fabric constricts and contracts, much like the human experience.

๐—–๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐˜€๐˜€๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—ฎ๐—ฑ๐˜€
Twisted stitches on a bed of Stockinette symbolize cross-roads in life, and the arms of those who hold us through the journey. The choice to accept support and stand tall in your self-care shines through this with this pattern.

๐—ฆ๐—ฒ๐—น๐—ณ-๐—–๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ ๐—–๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ป๐—ฒr
Corner-to-corner crochet creates a a cobblestone effect. The fabric grows diagonally, until the stitcher is ready to move forward in creating the desired length of the project. This pattern gives pathway vibes โ€” allowing the journey to shape the result.

๐—ฆ๐˜‚๐—ฝ๐—ฝ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐˜ ๐—–๐—ผ๐—น๐˜‚๐—บ๐—ป๐˜€
Supported by half-double crochet rows, columns of double crochet stitches juxtaposed against negative spaces create a quick, graphic, and beginner-friendly pattern. The resulting fabric evokes the foundation of community, creating room to breathe and strength to heal.

The 2nd Annual Moodring Make-Along starts August 27th, and takes place in a free Space in my community, Stitchwell Social Club. Learn more and join through the link in my bio.

All ๐Ÿงถ samples are made with Quince & Co Chickadee, included in the (optional) Moodring Make-Along boxes, available in the shop at vickiehowell.com

Hi, friends. Lately, itโ€™s been weighing on me that during these stressful timesโ€”when we arguably need community now more than everโ€”some Stitchwell Social Club members are having to cancel their subscriptions, and other stitchers havenโ€™t joined at all due to job losses and other economic challenges. Itโ€™s my hope that Stitchwell knitters and crocheters can be here for each other during good times and bad. I also, though, need to make a livable wage.โฃ
โ€‹โฃ
So, after months of consideration, hereโ€™s the new scoop: As of Tuesday, August 4th, we relaunched our tiers. ๐—ฆ๐˜๐—ถ๐˜๐—ฐ๐—ต๐˜„๐—ฒ๐—น๐—น ๐—–๐—ผ๐—บ๐—บ๐˜‚๐—ป๐—ถ๐˜๐˜† ๐—ถ๐˜€ ๐—ป๐—ผ๐˜„ ๐—ณ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฒ for everyone, removing any financial barrier to connecting with friends. It gives stitchers access to some of the spaces in the club, including one for the Moodring Make-Along, as well as live events. No cost, just kindness.โฃ
โ€‹โฃ
To learn more and join at any level (free, $15, or $25) , please click the link in my Vickie Howell bio, go to my website, or to stitchwellsocialclub.com. I appreciate you all showing up, more than youโ€™ll ever know. ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿผโฃ

We need to talk about paying a ambassadors a livable wage in the sewing, knitting, crochet, and craft industries.

Iโ€™m interested in your thoughts. Have you had influencer experiences with the expectation of working for free or at a low-barter rate? Or, have you seen positive examples of Ambassador programs that might act as a good starting point reference?

Weโ€™re crafty โ€” letโ€™s work together to do better. ๐Ÿ’—
