I have started my first commission since breaking my hand back in January, its so good to be back to full crochet power! I won't be able to finish the project for a couple of days as I've had to order some supplies, but pics to come!

After some testing I can now confirm I am able to crochet again, so my commissions are once again open! Check my pinned post for guide prices, and feel free to contact me via any of my socials to discuss any projects you have in mind :)

Just attended the last hospital appointment and been given the good news that my hand is healed and I can return to normal functioning without any further immobilisation. Still going to take it easy for a couple of weeks but I should be able to open commissions again soon!

Tomorrow I should be going to my last appointment at the hospital to get the all clear with my hand, so hopefully I'll be back to full crochet power soon!

Today's past project of the day are my potion bottle dice bags! These are a lot of fun to make as the tension needs to be enough when crocheting that they keep their shape relatively well. #dicebag #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #d20 #crochet #art #crafts #handmade

I've been putting chemicals in the yarn to make the frickin' frogs gay #art #crafts #gay #lgbtq #frog #rainbow #crochet #amigurumj #plushie

Today's past project of the day is a Futurama inspired brain slug. All hail the brain slug. And yes, I did use this as a low effort Halloween costume 😂 #amigurumi #plushie #crochet #handmade #crafts #futurama #brainslug

Past project of the day: This was a small nyancat plushie I made a while back, it was very interesting to work out the best way to make it with the character being 2d. #plushie #amigurumi #handmade #crafts #nyancat #crochet

Today's past project of the day are these mini fox plushies based on the @foxes-in-love.bsky.social characters #crochet #amigurumi #plushie #fox

Today's past project of the day is this plushie of Isaac from The Binding of Isaac. This was a commission I had a couple of years ago for a coworker, before I was doing commissions more widely. #bindingofisaac #plushie #crochet #amigurumi #videogame

In the final instalment of pokemon themed previous crafts, I made myself 6 pokeballs and an attachment for my belt for them to clip onto so I could finish off a pokemon trainer costume for Halloween (that I didn't end up using) #crochet #pokemon #gottacatchemall #amigurumi #plushie

Following on from yesterday's pokemon themed Post, this is a Spinarak I made freehand a while back, to this day I'm very proud of this little bug 😁 #crochet #amigurumi #pokemon #plushie

In the hopes that my commissions reopen as planned in early March (if I end up in another cast I will scream), I have updated my price guides for commissions. Please note, in most cases these prices are just a guide, and are not inclusive of P&P.

Continuing the theme of sharing previous projects while my hand heals, I was gifted some books of pokemon crochet patterns a couple of years ago, and I managed to make my favourite Eveelution, in its shiny form at that!

I'm rebooting my Ko-fi, ready for when I can reopen commissions in a few weeks once my hand is healed. My plan is to mostly use it for commissions, but any support is welcome :) ko-fi.com/orionclaw96

Commissions are up! I hope I remembered everything 😅 tried not to price things too high or low, if you feel I'm underselling myself I left it as 'pay what you want' so there's that at least 💚 ko-fi.com/bauscheusse/...

Hand is almost completely healed after my fight with the ice patch. I am just about able to crochet again, taking it slow though and working on an easy repetitive project for the time being. Commissions should hopefully be back open in a couple of weeks :)

Happy Valentine's Day from the Valentine's Moogle! #finalfantasy #moogle #amigurumi #plushie #crochet #handmade #valentines

As my hand is still healing, and therefore crochet is a no-go at the moment. Enjoy this plushie I made as a gift for my boyfriend on our first date. (It was his birthday not long before) I call it: Cutethulhu #craft #plushie #crochet #amigurumi

Cast came off today! I'm in a removable splint for the next 2 weeks just as there was still a bit of a twinge and the doctor wanted me to keep it more or less rested for another 2 weeks, but its nice having some air to my forearm again 😂

My next appointment regarding my hand injury is on the 11th. Fingers, toes and eyes crossed that I can get this cast off and get back to being my usual crafty self

An unsurprising but unexpected stage of the healing process has occurred. I am now, fairly constantly, tired and hungry. My body demands the energy, but will give me none of it 😂

Missing artfight when I was at peak creative and made little plushie dolls of people's OCs... I might have to do a March Marathon of crochet once my hand is out of the cast

The worst part of breaking my hand is not the healing process, the difficulty finding a comfortable sleeping position, or working through pain daily. It's the fact that I can't create. I know it's only for a few weeks but I miss crochet so much already

Always 💖 Don't make me tap the sign

Tweaked my goal so instead of just saving for the sake of it, it’s a sponsor an artist style deal since finances keep getting tight no matter how much I try and save 🫠 might draw celebratory art for certain progress marks like 10 20 or smth 😅

Just realised I still had my account name set to commissions open, so I've adjusted it until I'm out of my cast and able to crochet again

There will be no crochet for the next 6 weeks or so because I broke my hand falling on ice yesterday 🙄

Adding to the valentines prep, this idea popped into my head when I was working on another FF themed project and I had to do it. #crochet #amigurumi #finalfantasy #moogle #kupo #valentines

Decided to set up a Kofi goal (starting small) for helping to save up to cover any future expenses etc! Don't feel you need to donate, but any shares would be appreciated 🙇💚 the less I have to worry about finances the more I can focus on art! #KofiGoalChallenge ko-fi.com/bauscheusse/...

I didn't have any appropriate yarn to make a Balrog, so instead I made a Blueflame Balrog (or a Shiny if your a pokemon fan) #amigurumi #balrog #lotr #lordoftherings #youshallnotpass #plushie #handmade

I had the bright idea to turn my bfs Christmas tree into a seasonal tree that we decorate for different holidays. Now I have the job of making themed decorations 😂 Long story short, meet Valentino, the valentine's day snail #valentinesday #vday #crochet #amigurumi #handmade

We just checked our oil (for heating) and we will need to be making an order this week 💀💦 if you can’t afford an adopt, donations are also open, and if you can’t afford anything a share would be appreciated 💚 there WILL be new adopts added throughout the month

Tell an artist/writer/podcaster/maker that what they’re doing matters to you. They want to hear it. Making shit is lonely work most of the time and it helps to know that the circuit is being completed somewhere.

Planning some new adopts, hoping to 'clear' some of the older ones (prices are discounted), they're pretty old 😅 I don't usually advertise but January is usually a pretty hectic time financially, I'm sure you understand 😭 ko-fi.com/bauscheusse/...

Some of the decorations/gifts I made this festive period. I also made a pair of gloves and a beanie in a matching set, but don't have photos of those at the present moment.

Entered a competition via google form but figured I'd share my mini Zorbak plushie here, inspired by the Moglin ( @moglins.bsky.social ) from the various @artixgames.bsky.social games (particularly DragonFable)
