1hdc in the same dc as the ch2.Ģhdc in each dc all around, ss to the top of the initial ch2, fasten off. Round 3: Attach new color in any dc with ss, ch2 (counts as first hdc). I think it’s easier to weave in the ends in every color change, instead of making them all together in the end. ** Every time you change a color, fasten off the yarn and leave about 5″ (16 cm) tail to weave in. ** From now on, change of color will be in every round. Round 2: ch3, 15 dc into the ring, ss to the top of the initial ch2, fasten off. Round 1: ch5, and form a ring with ss into the first ch. Now you have 7 loops on the hook, pull yarn through all 7 loops. Hdc3tog– Half double crochet 3 together: *yo, insert hook into st and pull yarn back over (leave loops on the hook) repeat from * twice more (in next 2 sts). Now you have 3 loops on hook, pull through 2 of the loop Repeat from * in the next 2 stitches, ending up with 4 loops on hook, yo and pull through all 4 loops. BPdc (Back post double crochet)– yarn over, insert the hook through the back side of the work, across the front of the indicated stitch all the way to the back side of the work, yarn over and then pull the hook the same way back to the back side of your work again, continue as dc.īPhdc (Back post half double crochet)– yarn over, insert the hook through the back side of the work, across the front of the indicated stitch all the way to the back side of the work, yarn over and then pull the hook the same way back through your work and through the 2 loops on the hook.īPdc3tog (Back post double crochet 3 together)– *yo, insert hook through the back side of the work, across the front of the indicated stitch all the way to the back side of the work, yo and Pull the hook the same way back through your work again.

I had a completely different idea going into the pattern but I'm really happy where it ended up!

Trying to do a bit more cross stitch in addition to my usual blackwork. Experimenting a bit here with placing the shades of green. Cross stitch on 18-count Aida. I stitched it in a 7-inch hoop so I'd have space, then finished it in a 5-inch.

Here's a google drive with the pattern - there's a regular .pdf and one that should work with Pattern Keeper, for anyone who uses it.

Aesthetics of Funk - Crocheted mandalas by Xenobia Bailey

Xenobia Bailey is a trash alchemist, a single stitch, urban crochet aficionado, designer, artist and community activist, whose practice industrializes the visual aesthetic of “Cosmic-Funk,” practiced by African-American homemakers since Emancipation, into utilitarian “Funktional” design. Media exposure ranges from an Absolut advertisement to a design consultancy with Disney World, and a subway mosaic commission from the MTA in New York. She has shown internationally, with such institutions as Creative Time, the Sharjah Art Foundation, and numerous U.S. Embassies. Her work is held by numerous museums, as well as in academic, corporate, public and private collections.

Animated Mandalas (With Code!)

In some of the rare times where I create something small and cool, I love sharing it with other people :)

For context, I've been working on a video game and started looking into some loading screens. I got carried away a bit, but I loved the capabilities and parameters I could experiment with here!

Since my game is set in a Mystery Solarpunk world, I was aiming for brighter and lighter color schemes :).

I was surprised with how beautiful all the parameter combinations can be!

Code

So if you want to try it yourself, feel free to check out the following repo:

https://github.com/AB3000/processing-fun/tree/main/MandalaRunner

You will need to download Processing in order to run it. It's a nice open-source sketchbook language built on top of Java to draw some cool visuals :)).

If you end up creating something with it, please tag me so I can see your creations! B)

Also, if you happen to have a GitHub account, I would love it if you could star the repo as well (but no pressure on this!) :))
