#KNITTING

You ever see a thing and know with bone deep certainty, and a little bit ferociously feral-ity(is that a word?) that you need to make the thing?

How FREAKING COOL and ON BRAND for me too???

Linked below for the written article and charts.

A genius, stunning, so freaking cool. Insert Lady Gaga gif here.

Good LORD

So I think I forgot to post about it here but I'm knitting my own wedding dress.

Edit to add materials: I'm using suri silk alpaca (apparently I'm slightly allergic to mohair?), and glass beads for the silvery and pearl beads.

You will patch up all the holes in 2025.

(this isn’t a post about knitting)

All done! I’m about as good at taking pictures as I am at binding off nicely and the newborn it was supposed to be for will be three in June, but it is done!

My grandfather knits. He's 97 and he learned when he was about 90. They'd gotten a stack of knitted washclothes at a garage sale and they were the best washclothes ever and so he learned to knit to make more when the last one finally bit the dust. Now everyone in the family had huge stacks of them. My grandfather was always crafty and artistic. He mostly knits now as that's something he can easily do in his sitting chair. He's made us all hats and scarves and such as well. But the washclothes... Well when I'm 90 and finally make my way through the last of the literal piles I have of them, I'll be learning to knit them too

Major shout-out to men that craft. Dudes that knit. Fellows that felt. Bros that bind books. Cobbers that cross-stitch. Y'all are wonderful and I appreciate you.

Hey kid, look at me.

I want you to T-pose. Turn your right thumb up and your left thumb doen and look at your right thumb. Move your arms up and down a bit until you feel a nerve running from your armpit to your palm. Now turn your right thumb down and your left thumb up, and look at your left thumb. Keep your chest facing forward and your shoulders back. Move your arms again until you feel that nerve again. Keep alternating between these two for a minute, or look at each thumb thirty times each.

Now sit down. Put your left hand firmly under your left buttock, palm down. Keep your shoulders back and put your right hand over the crown of your head, very gently pulling it to the right. Do this for thirty seconds, then do it again but with your right hand under your right buttock.

These are stretches for the nerves in your arms, and are very good for people who sit behind a computer a lot, or fibre artists, or you name it. Do them daily. They will hurt in the beginning, but keep doing them, even after the pain has gone, or it will return and you'll have to start all over.

Look at what I found todaaaaay

So yesterday I was thinking about how femme clothes fit my sibling weird sometimes cuz of their lack of tits and then I randomly remembered this nonprofit that knits and crochets prosthetic breasts for cis women that have had mastectomies due to breast cancer (knittedknockers.org lol) and their patterns are free! So I am knitting them some tits which I find very amusing.

For those that want breastforms, the patterns are free. Takes sport or DK yarn. There's a DPN version and a knit flat version and a crocheted version. You can find them on Ravelry under the name Knitted Knockers but make sure you have mature content enabled

The second of my Discworld Words Scarves, following on from the 'How Do They Rise Up' scarf I uploaded [Here].

If/when I knit it, I’ll use the double knitting technique with 3.25mm needles and dk weight yarn.
