eta: um wait time of year and 'wizard robe and hat' visual are suited to graduation but you say matriculation I r confused

[soc_puppet]

*checks dictionary* ...God dammit. A number of my professors and fellow students used "matriculate" in a manner implying "going up on stage and receiving one's diploma" at the end of my last semester. It's looking like one of those times when I shoulda looked it up before using it. *sigh* Off to edit my post to reflect reality, then!

Ain't those fun times? :)

[soc_puppet]

Just delightful, really.

Oh gosh, congrats!!

...also my sister recently got into crocheting and I told her about the pig I bought from you. :3 I was showing her your Etsy shop and mentioned the Tetris blanket you'd made, and she said she would be totally willing to buy the pattern if you have one? Lure her to the dark side of crocheting cute things.

Thanks ^_^

The flying pig pattern is here :Db I've also got my European dragon pattern and griffin pattern available.

If you meant the Tetris blanket, that's a bit more complicated. The image I based it off of is here, but with "O" in the 'next shape' box instead of 'S', and 'I' falling instead of 'Z'. I also skipped the darker red area where 'Z' is projected to fall, and moved 'I' so it would land in that nice vertical slot. I also added a row of gray on top and on bottom of the "screencap".

I crocheted each square individually, and then stitched them together by hand. The pattern I used for the squares should be something like:

In the round:
Ch 6, slst 1
Ch 3, dc 11, slst 1 in 3rd ch
Ch 3, ([dc 3 in 1 x 2, dc 1] x 3), dc 3 in 1 x 2, slst in 3rd ch
Ch 3, dc 1, ([dc 3 in 1 x 2, dc 3] x 3), dc 3 in 1 x 2, dc 1, slst in 3rd ch

I know the second round is good, after that it's basically "increase 3 times in each of the two cornermost stitches on a round" and otherwise just dc/the 3ch that replaces a dc. Any basic granny square pattern should work, though.

There's also my fandom patterns (free! though donations welcome) at hooked_on_anime :3
