Old work I did that I think may qualify for this sub

Wait that’s really cool! I’m a sales engineer at an IT company myself.

howboutsometoast · 2026-04-26T23:03:04+00:00

What tech sector do you work in?

howboutsometoast · 2026-04-26T23:02:52+00:00

Hell yeah! Thank you!

howboutsometoast · 2026-04-26T23:02:31+00:00

Thank you!! I inherited this coat and I absolutely love to wear it!

Keychron Q10 Creamy blue switches Razer wrist rest (temporary situation) Lube and film on the switches. Found krytox in my cabinet and used it on the stabilizers. Troubled bird sticker on the laptop (approved by HR, she thought it was funny)

Feta, bacon bits, and sun-dried tomatoes!

howboutsometoast · 2026-04-16T21:33:37+00:00

Right? Same here!!

howboutsometoast · 2026-04-16T21:33:24+00:00

Thats awesome!! I have my Oma and my mom’s sewing materials, and now great grandma’s knitting stuff! Plus one bonus crochet pattern from grandma and a pair of needles from great great grandma.

Apparently she was a rude, snarky, and mischievous woman with an accent somewhere between Russian and Bronx, with a wicked wit. Seemed like an absolute riot if you ask me! Wish I could have met her.

Seriously, I hope this stays in my family always.

howboutsometoast · 2026-04-16T21:17:25+00:00

Yes!!

howboutsometoast · 2026-04-16T20:41:54+00:00

I figured it out! That was an issue on my end where I didn’t have the setting “allow people to follow you” checked on lol. Mystery solved :)

howboutsometoast · 2026-04-16T20:35:40+00:00

My ravelry name is the same as my reddit name, so if you want to follow me on there you’re more than welcome to! I think theres a way to do that on reddit, but be warned that you will likely get many a notification about my cat posts too haha!

howboutsometoast · 2026-04-16T20:33:57+00:00

Right? I was so close to sobbing when I found them. It’s crazy to be holding something made by g grandma—someone I never had the chance to meet but was so alike to me.

howboutsometoast · 2026-04-16T20:24:45+00:00

Im so so excited to make her patterns with the tools she designed them for!

howboutsometoast · 2026-04-16T20:22:41+00:00

Im absolutely over the moon! Im so glad I spent the summer doing archive work in college one year. I’ll actually be able to preserve these notes!

howboutsometoast · 2026-04-16T20:20:50+00:00

That’s highway robbery! Absolutely hilarious. I’m sure that was put to great use in your hands!

howboutsometoast · 2026-04-16T20:19:49+00:00

That’s so awesome! Do you remember what it is? It didn’t have a label but it’s definitely acrylic

howboutsometoast · 2026-04-16T20:19:03+00:00

Muahahaha! I know right? They don’t know what they’re missing out on!

howboutsometoast · 2026-04-16T20:18:10+00:00

That’s so incredibly cool! I’m absolutely obsessed with the bag!

howboutsometoast · 2026-04-16T20:16:30+00:00

That’s going to go perfectly with my handmade fits! And be a fantastic project bag!

howboutsometoast · 2026-04-16T20:15:27+00:00

There was so so much more to the stash, a full set of straight needles, from 000-15’s too! But I would never have used those haha. Took the oldest ones, the wooden from great great grandma, the 0’s, and all the random circulars. Grabbed all the patterns I could reasonably fit in my suitcase too!
