Second design I made for my linoprinting class! Really happy how this one turned out. I had no idea what I was doing carving out the sky, just a vague idea of what I wanted it to look like, and it came out cooler than I imagined

Just watched hail Mary with @krukel and I don't think ive ever sobbed harder while watching a movie
it was v v good
Glad you had a good time together, and that the movie was indeed good! All the fandom analysis on my dash had already made me curious, but I haven't seen it yet. Maybe I should convince the boyfriend to watch it together this weekend, if you two think we would like it as well.
Wat is "ij" (Geen nuance, je mag maar 1 optie kiezen, kies wat het beste past)
Een digraaf, net als "au" en "oe"
Een ligatuur, net als "œ" en "æ"
De 25e letter van het alfabet ("y" zit niet in het Nederlandse alfabet)
De 25e letter van het alfabet (samen met "y", dus eigenlijk zijn er 27 letters)
Een letter, maar niet een uit ond alfabet

LEES PAS NA HET STEMMEN
Laten we even kijken welke argumenten er zijn.
Did a lino printing course this summer, and this is my first print! Really enjoying it, carving is so meditative
It looks so good! Never would have guessed it being your first!
Looking for water in the woods
More friendship-yarns! (Aka yarns spun from fiber mixes my friends designed for me)
In the first picture a skein of 'Antique Christmas', 90 meters of fingering weight yarn containing corriedale, merino, stellina and nylon glitters. The small skein next to it is 'Tangerines', 75 meters of lace weight (there is less of this blend because I used part of it to teach a little girl how to spin who was mesmerized by me spinning at a bbq we were both at), merino and nylon glitters.
In the second picture is 'Chocolate and strawberries', 180 meters of very fuzzy woolen spun yarn. Grist-wise it is definitely lace weight, but due to how airy it is and the halo it is quite close to a light fingering WPI. It contains World of Wool's Dusty Raven Berry, dark and light brown undyed mystery wools and indie dyed mohair. This was my first time spinning this woolen, I tend to default to a more worsted draft even with a woolen fiber prep, and it is definitely something I need more practice with, but the result is lovely.
Names were decided by me
I have spun my thinnest plied thread yet, 117 meters in 3,3 grams, aka a grist of 3500 meters per 100 grams, which is low-key insane. I love it so much. 100% silk, spun from indie dyed hankies (hand dyed but not by me). I used my new 12,8 gram Turkish spindle from Studio Spintol.
I am gonna use it to knit more pieces for my series of waves. For the first five, see this post:

It knits up beautifully as well!

This is a piece I have never shared online before. I made it after the 2020 bushfires - thinking about how much was lost, and the charred stumps I saw when I later walked in the forests.
The two paper pieces are small paper prototypes. My thinking steps on the way to the larger piece.
But seeing them together like this, they feel more to me like they are pilgrims on a journey.
Oh, that is a very impactful piece, both the original intention and the reframed feelings/meaning now together with the prototypes. I love how you photographed them with the long shadows, those really strengthen the feeling of movement, moving forward so to say, after the tragedy of the bushfires. The little pilgrims, children perhaps, are less damaged, the bigger child has some soot on it, but is still largely unburnt, that gives hope for a better future where we take better care of our world.
A really lovely piece, thank you for sharing it! It makes me feel all kinds of things.
One question, if you don't mind, the black fabric, does it actually get darker towards the top? Or is that a trick of the light/photograph? Either way, very cool, I am just being curious 😇
The darkening at the top is just the light. I hadn't noticed it at all until you asked - it's really striking - but accidental!
And thank you as always for sharing your thoughts. <3
Ah, thank you! It is indeed very striking!
Some of my handmade buttons - just taking a moment to arrange and rearrange, to keep me looking, thinking, noticing.

“Tour Guides”
-2026
I am really on a spinning-roll lately! Not quite because of tour the fleece, I was already spinning quite intently for a few weeks before TdF started, but it is always fun to see what everyone else is up to.
This is about 80 meters and 100 grams of very bulky yarn. Black alpaca, orang sari silk, black merino with glitters and the remnants of a very colourful merino batt. I really love it. I usually don't spin much bulky yarns, I don't use it much either, but it is good to keep those skills in my tool belt, so I practice occasionally. Spinning a bulky skein is also a good way to use up some fiber quickly and make room for new fibers 😇
The yarn is not very even, due to my relative inexperience with spinning bulky yarn and a difficult fiber blend, but it is very usable. I love how it came out, the colours pop beautifully, the silk and the glitters give a lovely shine and it is an airy and relatively light yarn, not too dense or stiff.
Reblog this photo of a käpylehmä to have a käpylehmä in your blog
It's a trick! If you reblog you get TWO käpylehmäs in your blog!
They're traditional Finnish toys, little cows made out of spruce cones, on their way to see the world from one tumblr blog to another
@elodieunderglass not horrible, but things with legs?
I’ll send them on their lovely journey, thank you!
SIX, that's right, SIX small quilts i made in May this year. they're varying sizes, but all around 10" across (except the last one, the granny square; that's about 14"). these are all made using fabric i naturally dyed in my kitchen using things like osage, madder, cutch, wattle, black walnut, knotweed, goldenrod... some modified with iron or soda ash. playing with color and making sure scraps don't go to waste!
It appears that all parties with the exception of Restore are not going to entertain Farage’s media circus.
Count Binface - it is your time. People of Clacton, please do the funniest fucking thing that’s happened in UK politics for a while.
Shitposting at its finest.
Waves
Parts 1-5 in a series of small knitted artworks depicting waves, ripples, and other textures of moving water surfaces. Waves 1 and 3 are made with handspun silk and wool, wave 5 with only handspun silk. Waves 2 and 4 are made with unspun silk. They are small pieces, the black cardstock backings are 10x15 cm (4x6 inch), to give a sense of scale.
