Hot tip: when making amigurumi don’t store your to be sewn on pieces inside the unstuffed plushie… my baphomet definitely doesn’t have a snout IN his head… definitely not…

Why say 'Protect trans kids'? Because they're some of the most vulnerable queer people. If trans adults have difficulty advocating and meeting our needs, trans kids have it worse. We want them to know we support them. Even if its hard for them right now, it will get better 🏳️‍🌈 #queerart #transrights

These little loaf cats are one of my favorite things to crochet ❤️ I can’t do a lot about the state of the world, but I can be gay and make art 🏳️‍🌈❤️
