this is also a place for people who have said they want me to make them something but are too lazy to email me

yes you

avalanche_lily on Jan 15 '09 at 8:37pm

*looks around*

chelly on Jan 15 '09 at 8:39pm

yeh, it's pretty blah so far. we're still stocking the shelves.

you got any ideas?

canceromega on Jan 15 '09 at 8:39pm

Out of curiosity, where do you get your yarn from?

chelly on Jan 15 '09 at 8:41pm

usually just walmart because

1. they aren't religious

2. they aren't expensive

3. they aren't snooty

but mostly because they carry brands that are easy to work with

or they did

until they stopped

now i don't know what i'll do

canceromega on Jan 15 '09 at 8:43pm

Awww, I'll cross my fingers in hopes you'll be able to find some inexpensive, un-snooty yarn again! I'm thinking about taking up crocheting because I need a hobby at college to keep me from going insane. :P

NomadSlim on Jan 15 '09 at 8:43pm

I am excited to see your new things chelly, I've gone through some old blogs and your flickr and am so impressed.

avalanche_lily on Jan 15 '09 at 8:43pm

ideas for things to make?

I'm always a fan of bags. Right now I'd like a big one I could wear across my shoulder.

avalanche_lily on Jan 15 '09 at 8:44pm

There's religious yarn places?

chelly on Jan 15 '09 at 8:46pm

canceromega - crochet makes me insane haha, but yes pick it up so we can swap war stories

nomadslim - thank you! sometimes i wonder if it is worth keeping track of everything. i'm taking a bit of a break right now, but maybe i'll come up w/ even more good stuff.

avalanche lily - my sister just asked for one of those, they are difficult imo. also, hobby lobby is christian.

canceromega on Jan 15 '09 at 8:48pm

I'm sure I'll have a heck of a time trying to get started, but at least I'll be picking up something new and be doing something worthwhile with my time! :)

chelly on Jan 15 '09 at 8:49pm

well nicke, you should probably have an idea. like, if you just said "make it awesome" i probably wouldn't do it. but if you said "i like pointy ears an nap-time eyes and the color light blue" or even sent me a sketch idea, that might happen.

chelly on Jan 15 '09 at 8:54pm

canceromega - yah! and if you can find someone to show you in person it won't be hard at all. i just used a book and it took me forever. but you could use vidoes on the interweb too.

canceromega on Jan 15 '09 at 8:57pm

Thanks! I may bother you by email on occasion if I have any pressing questions, if that's alright with you, of course.

ir0cko on Jan 15 '09 at 8:58pm

you should make a sushi scarf!

chelly on Jan 15 '09 at 8:59pm

sure thing, just know that i don't know technical terms

irocko, for example?

ir0cko on Jan 15 '09 at 9:02pm

click

chelly on Jan 15 '09 at 9:08pm

thanks nicke

irocko, that's awesome (i do wonder if it has to be a specific count for each color for it to match up correctly though)

lily1029 on Jan 15 '09 at 9:53pm

have you ever tried (or would you be willing to try) making some wrist warmers with thumbholes?

WarDrobeInSpareOom on Jan 15 '09 at 9:55pm

I'm commenting in here so I can watch the awesomeness unfold.

mrwalrusface on Jan 15 '09 at 9:58pm

i would like to see what you could do with cat garden design, and yes i still owe you something mega in exchange for my killer ski mask

ofthecoast on Jan 15 '09 at 10:00pm

ZOMG Jailbirds hat!!!!

Chelly, can I have that? I'd even mail you some yarn!

bhoomika on Jan 15 '09 at 10:03pm

How about this one?

A Room With A View - Threadless, Best T-shirts Ever

Chipmnk on Jan 15 '09 at 10:09pm

Why is Justin not getting printed as often as he should be?

marblecargirl on Jan 15 '09 at 10:15pm

Wearing the scarf Chelly Bean made me!

chelly on Jan 16 '09 at 5:38pm

woah, something happened in this blog when i went to bed.

i'll answer you all when the little guy sleeps this evening.

chelly on Jan 16 '09 at 8:37pm

lily - that would require patterns which i dunno how to follow, but there are a lot of threadless folk who know how to make them so ask around

wardrobe - sounds good to me

mr walrus - i was just thinking that each of the kitties would make an awesome hat, but if i had the yarn and time (and permission) it would also make a crazy scarf

kelsi - gotta get jubs permission and which one are you liking best? i just finished a beanie that color and could probably try to make one.

bhumi- i'm not sure what part of that design would turn into a hat/scarf, but the colors are nice

chipmnk - he is, in another dimension (this statement also works w/o a comma)

AUBS - I LOVE YOU! thank you so much! it has been a while since i got more pics and it always makes my day. yay snow!

lordog on Jan 16 '09 at 8:40pm

hey chellz! just coming on in here to say hi!

i need to think of an awesome knitty idea...*puts on thinking cap*

ofthecoast on Jan 16 '09 at 8:41pm

zomg, I like nerd, fava bean, and the one with the badass hat! I love all the jailbirdz. I wish for Jublin to give permission!

chelly on Jan 16 '09 at 8:47pm

hi lordog! (i don't knit)

ofthecoast- those are the hardest ones. but if you like them all, i'm sure i can figure something out. ask him!

ofthecoast on Jan 16 '09 at 8:50pm

ahahah those are totally the hardest ones. I'm not picky. I love all those crazy birds, and I know whatever you did would be awesome. I will petition the jublin.

you're the best!

chelly on Jan 17 '09 at 10:09am

now accepting more photos of ppl wearing stuff i made

TimScribble on Jan 17 '09 at 10:26am

TimScribble on Jan 17 '09 at 10:28am

If this doesnt come up, Im an HTML failure.

jstumpenhorst on Jan 17 '09 at 10:35am

i love this blog and what it will become as the year goes on!!!

chelly on Jan 17 '09 at 7:59pm

yay timscribble!!!! thank you! i did see that in the hat blog but it still makes me happy to see it again.

aw, jared, you're so nice

ivejustquitsmoking on Jan 17 '09 at 8:10pm

exciting!

2 days later

chelly on Jan 19 '09 at 8:17pm

dootdoot

lily1029 on Jan 19 '09 at 10:23pm

so i've got idea #2 for you, could you do a penguin style hat? it could be mainly black with a little white showing on the front forhead area for its belly, maybe ear flaps to represent the wings and then add on some eyes and a beak?

jublin on Jan 20 '09 at 1:17am

woooooah! i didn't know i was in here! i totally missed kelsi's message she sent a few days ago, but i just saw it and i give my permission! i love chelly hats! I've been NEEDing one for a while. I'm gonna figure something out and when you are free we will make a deal! i hope.

taz-pie on Jan 20 '09 at 3:13am

chelly! i am trying to teach myself how to crochet! it is so bloody tricky! i have no idea how you do it! many exclamation marks!

bcrider on Jan 20 '09 at 7:59am

Chells, our Wal-Mart still has yarn, but only like two short bays of it; if you need anything, I can hook you up. Our Hobby Lobby is a great source of cheap yarn, and sometimes I get to Meijer (about 30 miles from me). Have you tried smileys online? Or Webs?

chelly on Jan 20 '09 at 6:46pm

hey lily - sketch it up! sounds like something i can make

jublin - send me ideas and i make time

tazpie - use the videos on the interweb, you can do it! it's a bunch of loops. you can be loopy, i believe in you! many exclamation marks!!!

bcrider - they still have yarn here, but almost all red heart. do you still have BERNAT SOFTEE CHUNKY? that's what i'm looking for. so far it is the best for what i do. it is kinda freaking me out that they stopped carrying it.

chelly on Jan 20 '09 at 6:58pm

mary maxim online store has some for under $2 so i'm trying that out

ISABOA on Jan 20 '09 at 7:01pm

my lovely wife finally got hooked up to the ravelry and was telling me about a cool lady who makes the most amazing hats.

I knew who she was talking about right away.

chelly on Jan 20 '09 at 7:11pm

hanna!

Kookaberry on Jan 20 '09 at 7:15pm

can you help me with this?

chelly on Jan 20 '09 at 7:32pm

zomg $60 later

jeesh!

telaine on Jan 20 '09 at 7:54pm

yay for yarny fun! :-) So is that your yarn stash in your dreams in the main post?

That sucks about Walmart shrinking their yarn stock. I've read in a few places that they are getting rid of yarn completely! You would love the local yarn shop I go to here. Completely not snooty and the whole back section of the shop is bargain yarn. I'm going to be teaching loom-knitting classes there!

chelly on Jan 20 '09 at 8:14pm

that sounds rad! the roommate's mom has a giant loom and i don't know how often she uses it. or...are you talking about looms like what you got me? either way, sounds fun.

we do have a couple other places that carry yarn, but it isn't very convenient to get to them.
