Finished my Final Fantasy 16 logo cross stitch. Started and finished in 2021. It was a confetti nightmare but worth it for the nice gradient.

Ravelry Dark Mode Browser Extension

From reddit user momomoca:

“So following Ravelry’s recent update, I was browsing dark-mode browser extensions I could use to make everything less… violently bright but none of the extensions I found were applying to the site fully, so I present to you: Readable Ravelry, a browser extension to make the new Ravelry readable for those sensitive to light/brightness.

You can still flip back to old Ravelry in your settings (and this extension will kind of work with it lmao), but I still found old Rav bright so I thought, "what the hell, why not just make a dark theme". lt’s essentially just a detailed recolour of new Ravelry that allows for those who struggle with bright/light themes to browse comfortably! It uses the Solarized Dark palette created by Ethan Schoonover, which was designed specifically to be low contrast and reduce eye strain, allowing for comfortable reading/browsing. I, ironically, gave myself a migraine working on this lil project, but I can confirm that once everything was in Solarized, browsing was much less painful lol This extension works in tandem with the accessibility features Ravelry has already pushed out as well, so hopefully this final touch is enough to allow most of use to browse comfortably— after all, the holiday season is like 4 months away so ppl need access to Ravelry ASAP.

You can find this extension on the Chrome and Firefox web stores by searching its name, "Readable Ravelry". This extension was developed for Chrome, thus it works best with the Chrome web browser. The extension is applied smoothly; Ravelry stays nice and dark while you browse 👏

I have also made it available for Firefox so it can be used as an add-on in the mobile browser for on-the-go crafting needs, but please ⚠️DO NOT⚠️ use the Firefox extension if you are sensitive to flashes! Firefox does not apply extensions as smoothly as Chrome does, so when a page loads, it will load the og page and THEN quickly apply the extension-- creating a small flash of brightness :/ Hoping to find a fix for this soon!

I hope this helps until tide y’all over until Ravelry can release an actual good quality dark mode!”

So far, I've finished 2 projects in 2018. A shawl for my friend's wedding and the first of possibly 6 baby blankets for the year due to fertile friends. I maybe crap out before I finish 6 baby blankets. Currently working on blankets 2&3 concurrently because twins
