process video for this piece, as requested by @trashfactorysstuff ! it’s a little on the longer side, but i figured it would be better to export the ‘slower’ version so that it’s a little more obvious what my process is. <3

In yet another move I don't have the time to be properly upset about because I've now got more to do immediately if not sooner, Twitch is cutting off their video storage capabilities above 100 hrs (including no warning not letting me save new highlights while I'm over that limit so I have to download all expiring vods to my lacking disc space while I organize before they delete everything in under two months).

But this means in the process of exporting all my vods to youtube I'm remembering those projects and the different titles I had for every stream--and I'm afraid to say it but I 100% peaked with an unfinished project in spring 2022 and solid gold puns including "Yeti or not, here I come" and "I must Sasquatch you're doing here."

made another cardigan, lads 😎🤙 as usual, forgive the abysmal photos… I was in a rush lol. pattern is unfortunately discontinued, so I had to wing it based on the photos! Luckily I had already knitted the bend of the “band” that wraps around the shoulders, so it wasn’t super hard. yarn is malabrigo worsted weight in candombe (the purple) and lettuce (the green). I’ll talk about this more on my ravelry for anyone interested in the specifics of everything.

Material Shapes

Connecticut-based prop stylist and designer Kristen Meyer creates geometric shapes using crackers, sticks, spaghetti, herbs, and other common raw materials. The finesse comes in her use of negative space, creating implied borders lines that help complete the shape without a full density of “ingredients.”

HOLY SHIT

This is why I need a loom stand, by the way. Because they are menaces who like to sleep on the loom.

trying to do some shetland lace knitting, except i have three dogs with me.

one of them is a labrador who must be pressed up against me at all times, and another is a shi tzu who must be on top of me and whose greatest joy is licking me when i least expect it. at least the cockerpoo is okay with the concept of personal space.

Last video before its paintined, added onto the mane for better fur texture/better hiding of the head band etc.

tomorrow it gets painted and eyes added finally before being completely done.

Wanted to show a better video of the detail and how everything looks when moving

I'm convinced mama dragons carry their babies around in their mouth for protection, like how crocodiles do...

The radio adaptation of Robert Harris’ Fatherland is, in my opinion, a shining example of the dramatic adaptation of literary fiction … but rather than celebrate this in art, I poke fun at how everyone’s always bumming smokes off Inspector March.

My second sweater design is finally finished!

This one is called the 'Unicorn Tapestry' sweater and the pattern can be found on both

My first time doing clasped weft technique! It's slow but so so striking! It has unsquared my overshot but I'm treating that as a feature this time.

You throw the shuttle in from one side, loop it round your second yarn and throw it back through the same shed to pull the second yarn into the cloth....

.... And then you beat very very slowly and carefully while pulling on each yarn to get the colour change exactly where you want it, and then you carry on and admire/curse your result. It's an absolute bastard to unweave.

For these colours I am making a zigzag between them, but for my next pair of colours (blue and orange) I will do something else.
