Squishy.

Floof without the fluff.

First finish of the year happened mid-month - it's @owlkeyme.arts sigil for 2023. Please check out their Instagram to get the link to the blog post explaining its meaning and purpose. I've been having a lot of fun lately with watercolour and other colouring agents to enhance my embroidery. I think embroidering the year-sigil will become a tradition - I start it in the old year, and it's the first thing I finish in the new year . . . #embroidery #SigilEmbroidery #2023sigil #2023SigilEmbroidery #LauraTempestZacroff #OwlKeyMeArts #ChainStitch #StraightStitch #BackStitch #RunningStitch #SatinStitch #ColonialKnot #WitchEmbroidery #WitchyEmbroidery #witch #witchcraft https://www.instagram.com/p/CoBdUE1NRCe/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Crochet Basics: Slip Knot & Chain Stitch

The first step in any crochet is that initial loop that is created to begin your structure of interconnected loops. We typically use a slip knot to do this. 

There are several ways to tie a slip knot. Heres a video that shows an easy to way make a slip knot to get started with crochet. If you have a hard time using this method, try another one, but the important thing is to get comfortable making slot knots.

Once you have a slip knot to start your crochet structure, you make a series of chain stitches to crochet into to create a form or fabric.  

Here is a link to a site with step by step instructions on how to make a chain stitch for you to follow along with. 

Practice making chains until you are comfortable with your grip of the crochet hook and the flow of the yarn. In the beginning, your work will be uneven, with some chain stitches loose and others tight. While you’re learning, try to keep the chain stitches consistent, and looser. As your skill increases, the chain should be firm, but not too tight, with all chain stitches even in size.

I’ve FINALLY finished embroidering this. It took months and unglodly amounts of green thread, but it’s over. I curse the day I decided to follow through on the ideia of using the detached chainstitch to fill every. single. leaf. but hey, at least it looks nice. (Hope it looks enough like a cedar tree to my lebanese grandfather, otherwise it will all have been for nothing)
