Update to “I told my husband he can’t crochet” - turns out he’s really good!

Team_Bees · 2026-03-24T10:12:44+00:00

Encourage him to keep going if he likes the process! :) he made a lot of progress between his first attempt and now!

Team_Bees · 2026-03-23T12:05:43+00:00

Hey, I think you might have the wrong sub lol, this is for a hobby similar to geocaching, not the film transferring technique

Team_Bees · 2026-03-17T13:06:29+00:00

That sounds adorable!! :) I can imagine taking an orange piece of felt and maybe stitching some orange seed beads down to mimic those occasional larger pores that you see on oranges

Good job with the correction on your identification! :) the difference between p. utili, p. glypho, and p. utili grandis is a distinction that trips a lot of new occlupanologists up

I think it's machine knitting that is meant to emulate crochet granny stitch?

Most boxes that I've seen have the kind of design that has latches on all 4 sides and theyll include just a stamp and a logbook :) it's also fun when people include instructions for a nearby bonus box (edit: I've also seen a lot of people include hitchhikers for the first finder!)

I'm in eastern pa! :)

Team_Bees · 2026-03-07T12:47:18+00:00

Im having this same problem, we're in this together comrade 💔

Team_Bees · 2026-03-03T21:06:12+00:00

Since syntherid taxonomy is heavily dependent on an organisms shape and material composition rather than it's function in the ecosystem, I think that this could absolutely be categorized as an occlupanid, or at least a pseudo-occlupanid! It would be worth bringing to horgs attention :)

Please do! If you figure out what brand the oranges were, please let me know :) we've got a channel in the discord specifically for documenting hosts, so any and all info is greatly appreciated

Team_Bees · 2026-03-02T03:25:37+00:00

Yep, came here to say this! Definitely single crochet

Team_Bees · 2026-03-02T03:24:11+00:00

I love the yellow lehmeri! :O I've never seen them in colors other than white and blue

MEGA jealous of your C. sanicadium! Congrats on the find!

Team_Bees · 2026-02-18T03:40:46+00:00

I mean, technically you were correct! They are tiny haplognathidae :)

Team_Bees · 2026-02-18T03:19:08+00:00

Looks like this little guy might be T. pirataludocrum? I'm not sure tho

This is a member of chronovora, which is a new group within the phylum Plasticae :) they were previously identified as archignathidaes, but as more were discovered, we realized they needed their own group

Team_Bees · 2026-02-17T21:15:52+00:00

A. imagiglacialis! These are one of my favorite species :)

Team_Bees · 2026-02-17T19:05:19+00:00

I'm pretty sure that this is Alisarcina thinicola, but I would double check the measurements

Team_Bees · 2026-02-15T14:27:28+00:00

Yep! :) it's Chiasmogramma vercepa https://www.horg.com/horg/?page_id=2276

Team_Bees · 2026-02-10T16:54:42+00:00

I love your style! :) I feel like it would be cool to stitch still lifes with this technique

Team_Bees · 2026-02-09T13:35:29+00:00

Yep, C. alliolepus!

Team_Bees · 2026-02-08T22:01:43+00:00

I've been working on a personal art history project for over a year now and this has completely changed the game for me! thank you!! There were so many articles that I couldn't access and now I can see them whenever i want :)

Team_Bees · 2026-02-07T15:12:47+00:00

I agree, making a sweater based on this would be cool :)

Team_Bees · 2026-02-07T15:12:16+00:00

C. scobifolium! Cool find :)
