#ziggy yarn

[simsprofile]

Hey everybody!

I'm Ziggy Yarn (He/Him). I am 23 years old. I love living in Tiny Town: Pop. (3) I like watching TV, napping, and being outdoors.

My favorite colour is Yellow and I prefer something in the Mid-Century Style. One of my favorite things to do is to knit clothing and objects so I can donate them, or gift them to friends. Sometimes I sell them online too.

I have goals to find and take care of a Cowplant one day. I don't take myself too seriously, and just like to take life slowly.

Fun Fact: I've been struck by lightning twice.

Looking forward to bringing some sunshine to my Tiny Town neighbors.

Ziggy has started to see more and more money roll in! Even if some of the means of income were from questionable sources...

Ziggy Yarn - Tiny Town Challenge

As soon as I saw Deligracy's new YouTube video, I knew I had to give it a go!

The first character I rolled was Ziggy Yarn! His skill is knitting and cross stitching, his favourite colour is yellow and his build style is mid century.

After a whooooollleee weekend of playing, here is his (admittedly, not very tiny) house. I don't consider myself a builder by any means, so I was pretty happy with how it ended up!

He was a really tough character to roll first. It takes a long time to make the items and most of the knitted items, which are cheap to produce, can only be sold via Plopsy. For most of the challenge, I was facing a continual battle against the bills and it was really hard to actually build anything.

Ziggy started working on his charisma in an effort to sell his products for more money. It took some time, but the effort did pay off and the big bucks started rolling in.

"Look, she's well steep."

Character Name: Montgomery “Three-Card Monty” Barker

Fandom: Realms of Peril & Glory (@realmspod), Liminal London campaigns [Podcast]

Played By: Naomi Clarke (@naomithinksit)

Yarn Used: Hair: CraftSmart Value - Toasted Almond Skin: CraftSmart Value - Taupe Birthmark/Mouth: Caron Lava Cakes - Sour Cherry Tracksuit: Red Heart Super Saver - Spring Green Zipper: CraftSmart Value - Heather Grey Shoes: CraftSmart Value - Tomato Soles: CraftSmart Value - White

Basic pattern here.

Monty, our beloved chicken nugget wizard. I fell in love with this kid pretty much from the moment I heard him (him being Naomi’s creation helped with that) and he’s just…adorable. And after Episode 4 of Loose Change (the fourth mystery), Great Googly Mooglies, that boy needs all the hugs. I hauled ass to get him finished in time for Episode 5 (I am writing this paragraph prior to actually finishing him, so we’ll see if I manage since it’s, uh, Sunday night). [Crafter’s note: I did not. I finished him two weeks later, in time for Episode 7.] He differs from the base pattern as follows:

Shoes: I actually used a different color for his soles this time! Like with Joseph’s, I did the soles in white, then switched to red for the body of the shoes. However, I did use white for the decreases at the toes in the first round of decreasing the shoes to give that white toe cap that’s so distinctive on Converse and Converse knockoffs (per Naomi, everything Monty owns is a knockoff). I also added an extra round of decreases to make longer flat tops to the shoes and skinnier ankles. The shoes went up to R9 like that, and then: R10: Ch 1, sc in front loops of first 5 sc, sl st in next 2 sc, sc in next 5 sc, sl st in first sc (12 sc).

Tracksuit: I asked on the Light & Tragic Discord, and Naomi was kind enough to inform me that Monty wears high-tops and tucks the hem of his tracksuit into them. I also wanted the pants to have a kind of baggy effect. So once I joined the tracksuit yarn, I chained 2, then did 2dc in the back loop of the first sc in R9, then dc in the back loop of the next 10 sc in R9, then 2dc in the back loop of the final sc in R9, sl st in first dc (15dc). I then continued as normal. I used the same method for his shirt as I did for Joseph and Gerry, just a bit higher up when I started the hemline. I also formed his torso the same way as I did Gerry’s—square most of the way up and then starting the decreases at the very end. Neither of these decisions were intentional, I just wasn’t paying attention to how many rounds I’d done. For the zipper, I tied three knots on top of one another to make a zipper pull, then embroidered in straight lines up and down either side of the zipper track before doing a cross stitch up the middle.

Head: Naomi said in S4E5 that Monty “had one of those big birthmarks” and I knew I had to include it. I didn’t really plan the defined edges of the birthmark, just changed color back and forth as seemed appropriate. Came out a bit Ziggy Stardust, but you know, it’s Monty. I also used safety eyes for him again. Think I put them in too far up too soon, because stitching around them was a pain in the ass, but it worked out.

Hair: I, uh. Forgot to start adding his hair in as low as I usually do, so his hairline is a bit higher in the back than normal, which is one of the reasons there are no pictures from behind, the other being that for some reason the seam got really jagged up the back (I’m guessing I wasn’t counting carefully enough and my joins got off). I’d meant for him to have a textured stitch to his hair, but I got to that point while I was away from home and didn’t have my book with all the stitches in it with me, so I improvised. I gave him a fun little swoosh of hair at the front. Turns out I was overcomplicating things with Hux’s and Mini’s hair. There’s a legitimate stitch called the hair stitch or fur stitch that does exactly what I was trying for on them with significantly less stress, so I used that here for Monty. Gives him kind of a cheeky look and I love it.

Arms: I used the same method I used for Joseph. I only stuffed up to R20 so he would have a little more flexibility in the shoulders.

Deligracy's Tiny Town Challenge

The Goal

The aim of this challange is to build 7 tiny homes on one lot, for 7 sims that match their desires and skills. Download my 7 sims off the gallery (username:deligracy) via the #deligracy or #tinytown. Then, download my "Tiny Town lot". Alternatively you can create your own!

You can watch a playthrough of this challenge on my YouTube channel here.

Tiny Town lot can be downloded here

Tiny Town Sims can be downloaded here

The Rundown

Each sim has a set skill that you must utilise in order to fund their tiny home build. For example Frank Stem likes Florist arranging, so you must sell floral arrangements to fund his Tiny House build. 

You must also represent each sim's favourite style and colour in the build (see sim characters below) - You can only work on one sim's house at a time, move each sim in individually as you "unlock" them. 

To "unlock" the next sim, you must complete the previous sim's home. 

How to play 

Start by moving your first sim into the Tiny Town lot.

To select your first sim, you could use an online randomiser, or just pick your favourite. 

After you move in your first sim, use a money cheat to set money at $0. 

Each sim has an allocated "tiny lot" with their skill item of choice, and some useful items in a box labelled with their name (If you have Eco Lifestyle). They also start with a tent, cooler and bush to wee and poop in. Feel free to adjust these items if you don't have the required packs. 

After you find your skill items start making simoleons through selling your creations! 

Use this money to build your sim's tiny home!

The Tiny Home does not have to fit into the contraints of the Tiny Home Stuff Pack sizes, the idea is to just make them small enough to fit 7 on one lot! 

 Extra Rules and ideas  

Your sims may contribute to community areas to help other neighbours when they move in and to create a lovely sense of community and lifestyle. Ideas could be a shared laundry, bathroom, BBQ area, garden etc.

If you have The Sims 4 For Rent, you may like to play multiple families on the one lot. This way you can let each sim romance and have families. I advise you set their rent to $0 or the minimum to avoid additional income. 

As you move in more sims and build more homes you will have to pay higher bills. Try your best to only build with your current sim's earnings, however you may keep track of a kitty for household bills too! You could even put this kitty money into a shared Get Famous money vault - or keep track on a note pad and paper. If you have The Sims 4 For Rent, separating them into rentals could make it easier.

Most players won't have all, if any, of The Sims DLC packs. Feel free to alter the challenge to suit the packs you do have, or utilise basegame features. There are many ways to make money including tasks like collecting valuable objects or careers.

You can play on any lifespan, use any cheats, lot traits/challenges, sims - but keep in mind the easier you make it for yourself will mean it isn't as much of a challenge!

Ziggy spent a lot of time in this front "garden" space early in his time in Tiny Town, so he wanted to add a few things to make the space nicer and more welcoming.

Tiny Town Challenge: Annie Aperture

This character was significantly easier than Ziggy Yarn... thank god. She joined the freelance career as a photographer (because just taking a bajillion photos was not particularly fun). In many of her freelance jobs, Annie worked with the style influencer, Lien Sadya and they became close friends. Lien and Annie eventually fell in love and right at the end of the challenge, Lien moved in with Annie to share her tiny industrial home.

As a parting gift to the community, Annie spent the remainder of her money on beginning the build of the community centre.
