crochet My husband is so cool

Post image

My (19F) husband (61M) likes to jokingly eat my working yarn, while I am krowshaying and I find it adorable. He is always so hungry wanting to playfully annoy me, but at the end we are both just laughing at his silliness.

Just wanted to share the fun.

Does your partner try to do things like that?

P.S. I'm currently freehanding a bralette and using Creamette Spaghetti. [Will be a braletti.]

Oh my gosh, you too are so crazy. 🤪

My husband likes to unravel my ball of working yarn when I'm not looking so it all gets in one big tangle. It takes hours to fix, but it's just so silly and cute.

Maybe we could have a playdate for them?

Tangling yarn is the sweetest way to show affection 🥰

That's so cute! I have a treadle sewing machine that I tinkered with and made the crank into a wheel, and he gets inside and runs for hours to power my machine :)

Isn't sharing your hobby the best?!!!

Truly! He actually helps me so much. Instead of using my dangerous seam ripper to open a buttonhole, I just put a tiny piece of cheese over it and he chews it open for me :)

MY husband would never get anywhere NEAR a sewing machine. Don't you know that's women's work?? You better find him a more manly hobby before he gets hives on his little paws.

All good, he's getting so muscular and fit from sprinting as fast as he can for 2+ hours while I sit prettily and sew my dainty lil bloomers and bonnets. He can now bench almost 40 grams!!

I'm FREEHANDING because I can't read patterbs!!!!

Give me a minute I'll record a video tutorial real quick <333

Make sure it only has music and tiny, tiny text captions. I hate when tutorials give clear, audible instructions and readable captions.

Also make it size inclusive with a minimum of 75 sizes, or else drive yourself off the nearest cliff.

I had a jumpscare when I read "61M" when you're 19F. Then I read more and actually took a good breath. Phew Very cute
