Alright...

So, I started working on the "Ice" doll. In my efforts to try different things anytime I do one of these, I decided to try sculpting the hair this time to achieve its cartoony-shape.

In my opinion, it turned out pretty good.

But...

It's Mario. I just made Super f*ckin Mario, which was NOT the goal here.

So I peeled it off, and I'm going back to the drawing board for his hair.

#rug hooking #artists on tumblr #fiber art #hnnnndgf the way the phone photo colors don't match up with how I see it is driving me a little nuts #every time but oh well >:'D #like the greens aren't as dull looking or as sharply contrasted in the detail photos #I'm glad I hoarded/saved the yarn that I precut for latchhook (which I abandoned after learning about rug hooking lmao)#because it makes for a very squishy pillow #(but also I think I def. could've stuffed in a litttle bit more before sewing it closed + didn't have a lot left)#blocked like...three other things when I was blocking this one #and the ones with non wool/funky materials were completely fine so that's nice to know haha #the back is an old flannel topsheet that nobody was using #anyways -knocks the fuck out-#edit: bb nephew recognized it as a cat so all is well/it passed hahah #also whoever said in tags that it looks great sensory wise to touch (or something like that my brain's a little fried still hhshs)#they are correct lMAO (even in general/ non pillow form I keep scrubbing my hands over them haha)#and when I was making the pillow I kept squishing it #muffled laugh

The civilization trapped in an ice meteorite.

Superman, after saving the earth from another earth ending bomb, breeze through space, were glowing clouds of gas and dust known as a planetary nebula floated around aimlessly with glowing green dwarf particles as if a solar system was sucked into, but there only lays a sun and 7 planets here before before something caught his eye.

A pusling aimlessly floating ball like metorite full of frozen white ice with green dipped in the bottom in the middle of space. The pulsing glow flickers like a couple of very slow heartbeats.

Superman used his x ray vision to see inside, and what he saw immediately immediately griped the ice and speed flew over through back to the Watchtower which was not far from here.

Superman spoke in the coms of his oxygen mask to the Watchtower.

"Open the space entrance gates, and someone calls in Beatriz Da Costa. I found a floating town trapped in metorite ice with what seems civilians' insides." Superman spoke in the coms as he pushed the metorite carefully toward the watchtower, unaware of the gigantic glowing transparent being with 8 neon green eyes staring at him wrapped around the ice metorite like a Serpent to it's eggs.

I finished this at the beginning of December but completely forgot to post it (>⁠﹏<;⁠) I was inspired by the other fine people making yarnfellows based on @sleepnoises' lovely work and decided to make my own little amigurumi fellow

#sock of the art #fiber art #plushies #crochet #'twas a fun challenge to figure out how to make it from scratch without using a pattern as a base #all made from scrap yarn bc yay stashbusting #still dialing in my gauge for amigurumi work. looser stitches than i would have liked but that's all part of the learning process 😤

Ok ok I've started the bog coat 😔

#also its my first time using this loom!#very exciting being able to weave something this big but also boy does it use a lot of yarn #i actually would have preferred to use an 8 dent for this but it didn't come with one so 10 it is #my weaving #the hubris has taken me

my favourite part of the yarn & fibre show I attended today was the lady who asked "may I touch your sweater" and "sorry I'm mauling you" as she examined the sleeves, and called her friend over to check it out as well 😭

#I was blushing sm after talking with her aaAAA I'm not used to receiving very specific knitting compliments 😭🥺#she also laughed for a good ten seconds when I told her there were only 33 projects for it on ravelry because. it's a giant sleeve island #knitting #I love u fibre arts community I love u yarn people

a colorwork cuff for a sock :-)

#third time’s the charm!!#i first tried it on magic loop but couldn’t get it over my heel #tried it again with looser tension but nope still not #invested in a 2.75 mm tiny circular (as opposed to my regular 2.25 needles for socks)#and YAY i knit this in one afternoon #it fits perfectly :)#i caved and bought summer lee’s colorwork cuff club … i’m Really having a sock phase #it’s now back on magic loop and will be finished in no time i hope #knitting #saturn’s knitting #i’ve also learned the eye of partridge heel recently and will use it for this sock as the yarn is on the softer side

Things currently on the first page of the "hot right now" section of knitting patterns search page on ravelry:

Several basic raglan sweaters

Mesh/fishnet sweater covered in sequins.

A dissected rat; complete with internal organs

Cute vest with stylized flowers

Two different sweaters (one pullover, one cardigan) with the same unicorn tapestry design by the same designer. Each pattern is $13 and there isn't a discount for buying both and neither pattern description mentions the other pattern. Designers can and should charge what they want for their work but this feels like a wild choice to me TBH.

Thong/Speedo "bulge" version-- ie designed for people with a penis. This pattern is no longer available??? Why is it on the hot right now page?????

Cute Christmas fair isle sweater.

Coin purse in shape of ten week old fetus.

Ranunculus sweater. Obviously.

Bookmark in shape of squished rat; complete with blood puddle.

Headband with extremely impressive goat horns and little ears. It's free and went in my library immediately.

5 different PetiteKnit patterns that still somehow look exactly the same.

Purse in the shape of grotesque head. For some reason the featured example includes a real cat tooth????

Hood with lamb ears being modeled by depressed young man.

That sweater with all the eyes which calls for yarn that is $58 per skein??

Hat that looks like a dead fish, but in a cute way.

Latest Stephen West shawl.

I don't know whats happening but the trending page pattern page has never been so chaotic. I am obsessed. Let's have more dead rat patterns and fewer tastefully boring PetitKnit patterns.

#adventures in knitting #knit snark #knitting #ravelry #knitting patterns #i don't actually have anything against PetitKnits #I just don't find their work very interesting #i ALSO don't have anything against very expensive yarn #i just find the idea of investing $250+ dollars into a novelty sweater hysterically funny #truly iconic rich kid from new york choices being made there #74 people have project pages for that sweater #0 of them are using the called for yarn #so clearly i am correct on this one #this page is also very nicodemus coded somehow #2025 is having a wild start i think

some cat hair rolags, ready to be spun…

#handspun #handspun yarn #handspinning #hand spinning #handspunyarn #maker spins #catyarn #I didn’t really card these so much as sort of use the carders as a blending board #to hold the fibres and then sort of pull them off in such a way it straightened them out a bit #which hopefully will make them easier to spin but we’ll see

When you just wanna wear AAAAALL THE COLOURRSSSSSS

if you like funky colour combos, baby's first intarsia, and feeling like the coolest cat on the street, you should totally give the Leith Cardigan by Rebecca Clow a go!

#i love it so much it's so ridiculous looking and obnoxiously colourful #used cotton merino so it's warm but not too warm and super soft #went for an action shot this time bc I literally finished sewing on the buttons and then ran outside with it lmao #knitting #knitblr #yarn crafts #mcbcraft

so far so good with these flat knit socks. unsure how long I'll make them before i turn the heels but really liking the colors of this scrap yarn im using up, very retina burning

rib is 2k2p, yarn is worsted weight acrylic because its what i had laying around. brand and colorway has been lost to time, and needles are USA size 5

i will say though. the yarn is 2x brighter irl it basically glows in the dark with how bright it is

#knitting #knitblr #enjoying how the yarn is striping. excited to turn the heels and then decrease for the toe boxes too #i dont really care about materials cause i mainly knit socks as stress relief but my next pair will be linen probably #cause ive got linen laying around that id like to use up at some point #these are pretty plush but they'll fit into my shoes so i dont particularly care #i dont really like knitting in the round so i figured out how to knit flat socks haha
