Sweet Dreams Emotional Support Snails to make with a Lucet

Days 44 to Day 59 of #100daysofspoolknittersandlittlelooms-

It has taken me ages to get it done, but I have finally uploaded a pdf pattern with step by step instructions and photos on how to use a Lucet to make ‘Sweet Dreams/Emotional Support/Comfort Snails.

 (The Pattern for them is available at:  https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/4492525912/pdf-pattern-for-lucet-cord-sweet-dreams

Snails?  Yes!

 Adorable, cuddly  little Snails!

For weeks, I dreamt about these charming little ‘Emotional Support’, ‘Comfort’ Snails and they really did make Sweet Dreams!

 They showed up in liminal dappled and speckled spaces.

They offered me comfort and guidance and spoke of the shadows that flicker in the places that are growing-when the breezes flit through the sunshine, whispering of greening new hope, love and light.

They delight me- I hope that they will offer you sweet dreams, and emotional support and comfort, too!


Throughout the amazing Artemis 2 Moon Mission, I worked away with my Lucet, experimenting to find ways of refining these snuggly Snails.  

In one of the dreams that I had about these little Lucet Snails, they said that the Artemis Astronauts took us to the moon and back and showed us that we are all really made of stardust and love….


So the Sweet Dreams/Emotional Support /Comfort Snails have both hearts and stars on them so we will remember that lovely thought!


They also have Lucky Pennies inside them so they will always carry good luck and best wishes with them.

There is a link in the pattern for a how to video that has step by step instructions on how to make an upcycled chopstick Lucet.

For the first part of my 100daysofspoolknittersandlittlelooms I have focused just on spool knitting- and I have lots more spool knitting to share. But, with Springtime arriving for some places (not so much for us… still cold and snowy- ugh) and Easter coming I wanted to feature the Gentle Bunny

and Tiny Baby Birds woven on the Kindness Loom.

They are part of my ‘Weaving Kindness Project’. Why not make yourself the Kindness Loom and weave up some tiny treasures for Springtime and Easter?

I have designed a tiny loom for weaving little projects that are the epitome of kindness, hope and delight. All the links for how to get the instructions for everything, from making the loom to a ton of delightful little Woven Wonderfuls are here:
