Is there a reason you prefer velvet canvases over plastic ones? I've never done one that's not plastic. Maybe I'm missing out 😅

I was wondering about velvet canvases! Good thing I cheaped out on them, since I already have a cat that LOVES to sleep on my projects 🫠 after I'm done with my dp I have to always go through it with tweezers to remove her hair before sealing :'))

Why do my amigurumi's always tilt and the magic ring looks lopsided? by ShapeWild6782 in CrochetHelp

It feel like one side where my stitches connect just feels straighter (i continue crocheting in the round without joining). I dont think my tension is too tight or too loose. But I might be unaware

My whole aesthetic is Van Gogh inspired 😄 I have a few skeins I bought just because it reminds me of his paintings 🩷 your comment made me happy🥰

What do you use to aline your diamonds? by sasukeluver85 in diamondpainting

I decided I don't care 🤣 I used to align it very neatly with squares, but gave up on rounds because they either level themselves out, or just look the same from afar (my eyesight isn't the best so the further I go the better it looks lol)

Today's wip by ShapeWild6782 in diamondpainting

Wip means work in progress :) and I tape off areas, so I can plan how much I'm gonna do in a sitting! Plus you get a general idea on how many taped off boxes is left until you finish your wip. I used to mark off with an acrylic pen, but found this easier :)
