  • Welcome to #pocketswap2021 - my very first Costube collab! Jeanette of A Perfect Touch annouced The Great Pocket Swap at the beginning of summer, and gave us until the middle of September to get our collective acts together (and our pockets in the mail).
    I received Rebecca of Lady Rebecca Fashions as my swap partner, and Noelle of Costuming Drama drew my name. It took a while to decide what approach I wanted to take for Rebecca's pocket, but finally made a decision: Make it Goth.
    Because who doesn't need a sparkly black flocked pocket with hand-crocheted edging in blood red thread? Right??

    I may have watched a Leena Norms video about "Helena Bonham Carter-core" fashion before recording my facecam footage. Which explains the hair... My head-canon for the pocket itself is that I swiped Lady Tremaine's vintage pocket for Cinderella. I had a whole explanation for this based on the fact that Cinderella's outfits are very late-40's-inspired (dawn of the 1950s) what with the circle skirts and fitted bodices - but Lady Tremaine is a duck out of water in her rather Edwardian collars and sleeves. So...that she'd have an anachronistic pocket would not surprise me! 😄

    Recovering Goth? Since when? I've heard the phrase once a goth always a goth more times than I can remember. I just assumed that applied to you too. Though I'm not into stealing from my neighbors, I have to wonder how someone could possibly make off with two of her neighbors ducks. I have ducks and not only are they hard to catch, they are also very noisy. I hate to imagine the state of her pocket after wards. Even if they were ducklings swiped from the incubator, they still would leave a stinky mess behind. Just doesn't sound like a well though out plan to me. Anyways I love the way your pocket turned out so cute. The crochet trim is just gorgeous. As Rachel Maksy would say, the chef's kiss. I will be looking that pattern up. I'm sure Rebecca will love it.
    Since I finished my shawl I found myself with out something to work on. I realized I was hooked (pun intended) and needed something else to work on. So I bought another shawl pattern and bought some more yarn from we crochet. But I still have the silk yarn I treated myself to for my birthday and I want to make an everyday chemise to wear and add some lace for the collar I thought maybe that might be a good use for it. I have the beaded lace pattern still too but can someone ever really have enough lace? 😉
