I got so many requests for the ancient Hearthian from Outer Wilds, and they really are so much simpler than the Nomai - but also, my notes and pics are a bit less detailed, and I've been so bad at even getting on my computer lately - so lemme try and cobble this together so anyone interested at least has something to work with!
Technical stuff: 3mm crochet hook, 9mm safety eyes, Red Heart Super Saver yarn in Jade, probably... but any nice shade would do!
Body:
They start as one long piece that kinda looks like a tadpole! A lot of the shaping is just by gentle smooshing it, but there are a few rows where you increase or decrease unevenly to contribute to it... I'm not even sure how much it really makes a difference tho!
6 sc in a magic circle
inc 6x to make 12 stitches
(3 inc, 3 sc) 2x to make 18 stiches (and a slightly elongated oval rather than circular cross section when looking face on)
(2 sc, inc) 6x to make 24 stitches
9 rows of 24
Add eyes and begin to stuff
Across the "top" of the body (wherever you choose that to be) do (1 sc, 1 dec) 3x, then 15 more sc to make a row of 21 stitches
Again across the "top" of the body do (1 sc, 1 dec) 3x, then 12 more sc to make a row of 18 stitches
From here, it's slow decreases (still at the top) and stuffing as you go:
(1 sc, 1 dec) 2x then sc around to make a row of 16
1 dec then sc around to make a row of 15
1 dec then sc around to make a row of 14
1 dec then sc around to make a row of 13
1 dec then sc around to make a row of 12
2 dec then sc around to make a row of 10
1 dec then sc around to make a row of 9
1 row of 9
1 dec then sc around to make a row of 8
3 rows of 8
2 dec then around to make a row of 6, fasten off and hide tail
Feet and Legs:
It looks like I really winged it a bit here, so let me try and figure out approximately what I did - the main idea is I think I made a very small tube for the feet, then pulled the tails through to the center, chained into a random stitch, and and did a few chains up and down to give it a short leg, then used those tails as well to sew them on to the body... I'm afraid I can hardly tell what I did for those legs, even looking at it in person, like it might just be a few knots... I am hoping that for here it isn't too much trouble for you to improvise something that works well for you!:
4 sc in a magic circle
3 rows of 4, then close off and pull the tails through the small cylinder, out the center
chain into a random stitch, then into an adjacent stitch,
sc "around" these two for 2-3 rows, to make a short leg
use the rest of the tail to sew onto the body.
Very messy, possibly blurry.... but hopefully this at least gives a bit more inspiration.
Ok, again, I apologize, it's not my best pattern, but I hope it will give people a starting point! Don't hesitate to ask questions if you need them, although as I mentioned, I'm not on tumblr much now a days. Don't forget to check out my Nomai pattern here! And as always, give me a tag here or @ erin.gurumi on instagram if you make one! I love to see them!
I don’t think adding nonbinary to Victorian’s gender system would’ve fixed their weird sexism. If anything I think it would’ve made them weirder and sexismier

We hit a sub goal a while back for me to put out a big list of all the Sherbert’s favorite things and it’s finally done!
I present: a very long list of favorites
A bunch of the categories I got from you guys, and some I made up myself! Some answers are pretty obvious, some are surprisingly quirky! But here you go!!
Ha a lélek vándorlásában hiszünk, el kell fogadnunk hogy ha zenészek voltunk, zenészek maradunk akkor is, ha négy lábbal újraszületünk..

very tired of the ‘Dick Grayson is mostly a pretty boy with bad puns, golden retriever vibes’ trope. Give me German Shepherd Dick. Give me the ‘consummate performer’ Dick. The one all, brilliance, bloody smiles and showmanship, the one with razor sharp wit and charm made weapon. Dick who seamlessly switches between a million personas. The one who doesn’t know what to do when the show’s over. Give me the Dick no one wants to be on the wrong side of because Nightwing might not start battles, but he finishes them. The only one whose threats the entire Batfam (including Bruce) takes seriously. The one fear toxins can’t affect because he’s been to hell and back.
The Dick who unlike Jason doesn’t even mention how much he’s been fucked up and survived. The one the Joker knew he couldn’t break.

I cannot describe the kaleidoscope of emotions I got from reading @not-freyja ’s “References” before bed time after a long day of academic work.
So I’m going to process this with drawings. This is my first “large scale”-ish fan art project.
Again, if you’ve not read Freyja’s brilliant 19k chapter, go have a wild ride!
