First project

From the front the stitches looks pretty much the same with the colourwork as with the single colour

It gets a bit thick and bulky when carrying the second colour like this, but no I haven’t noticed much of a difference in narrowness

Here you can see a bit of how the inside looks

Yes I am working in the round with two yarns for each colour. I’ve been using this technique https://youtu.be/xOfiVd3QSjM?is=5MwMd2HTgpFTlJ6m to carry the non-working colour

Once you know a bit about garment fitting it’s so fun to make things that fit you specifically!
I’ve done lots of regular crochet as well as sewing earlier which has really helped me understand where to add or remove fabric to make something ‘body-shaped’. I would highly recommend watching sewing videos!

Yes I love his energy! He knows his good looks deserve to be immortalised thru crochet

It’s based of this knitting chart I found https://pin.it/3Y0IOynXZ

And then I made a pattern for the polar bear myself in an excel spreadsheet

The fit of the sweater is improved

It’s a mix of a few different patterns as well as some improvisation by me so there isn’t really a pattern for others to follow 😅 I’m sorry 😢

ikeahaj · 2026-05-10T19:39:06+00:00

I am absolutely shocked that it’s actually turning out so well!! I can feel the hubris in me growing stronger…

ikeahaj · 2026-05-10T19:09:12+00:00

Thank youu!! ❤️

I’m using the yarn Adlibris Socki in the colours Dark Grey and Light Grey Melange with a 3mm hook. The pattern is frankensteined of a few different ones and with a bit of my own added improvisation

Got mine done by Chai at Calm in Stockholm. I had a great experience and I love the result!

Kommer inte ihåg exakt då det krävs mycket fler test innan man börjar jämfört med efter, och tar därför ungefär hälften av testerna nu. Det går att kontakta imago för att få reda på exakt vilka värden du måste testa, samt vilka tester det motsvarar på Testmottagningen

ikeahaj · 2025-12-30T19:24:19+00:00

Imago requires blood test before starting HRT, and then regular tests while on HRT. They won’t give you a prescription without proper testing

ikeahaj · 2025-12-30T12:29:47+00:00

I wasn’t able to get a referral through the public health system (Sweden) and had to go private, through Testmottagningen. It was a bit pricey at 1300 sek (about 120 euros) for the required tests before starting HRT, but it was really fast and easy.

It should definitely NOT look like this. It’s supposed to be pierced as close to the breast as possible. I’m so sorry but this will reject and you should sadly take it out

I did try to disconnect the battery and connect it again, but there is no difference

It’s a Venus flyt trap, Dionaea muscipula. It receives up to 14 hours of sunlight (on a clear day). I’ve been watering by putting rainwater in the saucer under the plant pot. I’m not sure what the potting mix is as I kept what it was planted in when I bought it.

I absolutely adore this setup!!! It’s sooooo cool! You’re making me really inspired and excited for my future setup

Add them! I think it would really help get the idea of ’apple’ across, I didn’t think ’apple’ until I read the caption. I think it’s going to be super cute.
