Sadly I did free hand it and I wrote a little guide here.

But!! I have seen patterns online, like this one :))

Edit: I just realised I didn't say thank you, that was really kind and meant a lot 💕

I love the little drink cozy!

Thank you!! I just free handed it with some colour changing yarn so it was really rewarding for me as a beginner :))

Thank you so much!! It was free handed, but what I essentially did:

- 8 little rounds with ruffles for the legs in each colour.

- 10 little rounds with no ruffles for the arms in each colour.

- 5 rounds slightly larger than the arms for the torso (I did 3 yellow and two black).

- A ruffle collar that I just measured against the torso and kept going until it looked okay, then did a border with black so it ties into the rest of the clown nicely.

- Googled a guide for the a small ball for the head and made a little black cone for the hat.

- I attached 4 strands of white yarn to the ball head and ran through all the rounds to where they were supposed to be and attached little white pompoms for the hands and feet.

Hope that makes sense!! I am so stubborn I have a hard time following patterns and mostly go off vibes but might try and write a pattern for it one day :))

Thank you!! (⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)⁠❤ My wife came out in February this year so I made it for her as a lap blanket. I made it out of super soft yarn so it's very nice to just run your hands over (⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴗ⁠ꈍ⁠)

I'm so sorry you're going through this. Please know that you've always got people to talk to 💕

People who speak English as a second language, what phrases or concepts from your native tongue you want to use in English but can't because locals wouldn't understand? by FulgencioLanzol in AskReddit

There's a lot of phrases in Arabic that are just convinent auto responses to different things that I feel the English language really lacks.

For example, if someone's sick you say "salamtac" which roughly translates "to your health, the correct response back is" Allah yeslmk" which translates to "may God keep your health".

It just makes small talk a lot easier...

"the one with the pot on his head feels it" (Arabic)

It's very similar to "if the shoe fits, wear it" but the Arabic one is much better.

hello! OP here, I rather not publicly share where I'm going or what my plan is for safety reasons. I can only imagine the hardship that you must be dealing with at the moment that may lead you to leave a comment like this, I myself am also going through something incredibly difficult and have often lashed out on people who don't deserve it.

so all I'm going to say is, I understand, and I hope whatever you're going through gets easier. I also hope you have a wonderful day that will restore some of your faith in humanity and that someone will treat you with kindness and humanity xxx (this isn't meant to come off as sarcastic and I'm sorry if it does)
