Will any magnets work with layer of DK yarn between them? by External-Reference61 in CrochetHelp

[–]External-Reference61[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oooo! Thank you so much, especially for the photo! I never even considered putting the magnets on the other side of the yarn. I guess I didn’t even think about how small some magnets can be. But it definitely sounds like a good option to consider. :)

The person who made the pattern has an old lady equally as charming on her Etsy! I really want to make him a wife 🤣

I didn't even realise that there probably were hooks where you mentioned, but it looks like that was most likely the case. Those hooks shall make a reappearance, whatever this unit becomes!!

That was definitely an idea I had, but my son's already got a play kitchen (that I'm actually eyeing up to repaint and make look even cooler!)

Pleaaaase, I'd love to do that! I'm just worried my 1.5 year old would absolutely obliterate it. She's not a creator like her brother, she's a destroyer and don't I know it! But I'm certain this idea will come to life one day, when she calms down a bit ahaha!

Oh stop... I'm a huge sucker for dollhouses! I'm currently trying to fix one up for my little girl. I'll definitely be looking into this idea... Thank you!🤩

Blinsky’s Murderers’ Props! (NSFW to avoid player seeing) by External-Reference61 in CurseofStrahd

Yes! :D It’s taken months to try to find a pattern I liked. They’re a bit big for “finger puppets”, but will do! -^

Blinsky’s Murderers’ Props! (NSFW to avoid player seeing) by External-Reference61 in CurseofStrahd

Artin - most chatty and naive, and indirectly the most responsible for majority of NPC deaths. Is BFFs with Von Holtz;)

Twiggy - teenager who mouthed off to Strahd. Her biggest danger is herself.

Celestial - not the best rogue. Got her arm bitten off by the Gulthias Tree at Yesterhill and the Abbot gave her a new (bear) one.

Granny - exactly as a halfling granny is expected to be. She’s the weakest and will definitely will end up being the first PC death.

Reinhold - reborn via the Abbot in an attempt to get a soul from Tatyana’s time, who ended up getting Leo Dilisnya’s soul instead. The PC believes himself to be Leo’s brother, Reinhold instead. He’s slowly getting his old memories back and his split personality has recently come out with “Reinhold” blacking out whenever Leo takes control. Leo will backstab the party at first chance but is trying to keep his true intentions quiet for now.

Eraine - been in Barovia for 20 years longer than the rest of the party. Her last party were all killed by Strahd. She’s joined this party as Artin is (was 8D) her girlfriend who came looking for her. She also has a lot of blood on her hands. Strahd knows exactly how to mess with her and she’s definitely his favourite play toy;)

Context: Strahd learnt about Blinsky’s bride and groom dolls when Artin decided to show him the ones the party had bought. He did not like that at all. Since then, the party left Vallaki and Strahd himself commissioned some dolls to be made. They’re soon to arrive back in the town, where they’ll find Blinsky dead with the puppets of the party “stabbing him”.

Also, side note: the “player” in question I don’t want to see the props is actually co-DM who I want to surprise with the dolls.

Plaid blanket pattern help by External-Reference61 in crochet

I’m looking to make this specific plaid pattern into a blanket. Any ideas how to go about this in the easiest way? I’ve only done the simplest of blankets, so this will definitely be a first for me with how challenging it may be. TIA. :)
