“Bamboo is antifungal”

Because it’s rayon

“Eucalyptus fabric is cooling!”

Yeah, because it’s rayon

“We make clothing called seacell out of seaweed!”

Yeah I looked on your website it’s made by the lyocell process, which means-

-wait for it-

It’s fucking rayon!!

Listen. There is a list of actual plant fibers that are directly made into fabric: cotton, linen, ramie, some hemp. I’m sure I’m missing a couple.

But if you’re wondering “huh how did they turn that plant material into fabric,” 99% of the time? It’s RAYON.

All rayon is made by putting plant material in chemical soup, dissolving out everything but the cellulose, and turning the cellulose into filaments/fibers.

The source of the cellulose has zero effect on the eventual fabric.

Rayon made from bamboo or eucalyptus or seaweed is not any better than rayon from any other sources.

Don’t let companies mislead you!

Calling it done before I made another hole in the fabric while undoing and redoing the "snow". Just in time for the solstice!

I was feeling really restless and couldn't focus on any of the Tasks I want to be doing, but I also didn't want to go for a walk because the sidewalks are covered in ice right now, so I made a jumprope out of a pair of old curtain pulls and skipped a little bit and that seems to have sufficiently tired me out. Hopefully now I can get back to work on the glove sewing video!

Hrrrrrr making progress

Got half the inside motifs left to do on the front and a wee bit on the end and then I can finally actually start putting this together!

Posting this separately from the update post because I like it. I added four new characters to it. I love you really long height chart.

All of the Marquesses (left image) have solid designs now! Arcadia the Marquess of Mango (left) and Veobid the Marquess of Peach (right). Also Cathode is there, but you know them. Probably. On the right image, newly added are Burkin and Esther (left and center) who are characters from 2021 that haven't been touched in a while (but they do show up in a comic I have yet to release)

Whenever Scorpius is feeling down or unwell, Draco speaks to him in French, the way Astoria used to. It’s the language that makes Scorpius feel most emotionally connected, wrapping him in warmth and comfort. Since her passing, Draco has taken on this role, keeping that bond alive.
