Dressing Like a Borrower

You guys! I found a video that basically encompasses the tiny side of g/t vibes in fiber arts!

This person set out specifically to create an outfit that emulates the costume design from The Borrowers (1997) and I am living for it! It leans a lot closer to costuming than what I'd consider everyday g/t vibes, but it's still fun to watch the effort being put into Becoming Smol. She goes step by step through the whole process of it all, and I thought I'd share in case anyone else finds this as interesting as I do!

Also, she literally uses the term borrowercore, which is something I'm trying to coin, so I'm over the moon!

But one night while borrowing, his hook breaks while he is on it. What will happen when Oliver is seen for the first time ever? ⚠️trigger warnings: fear, angst, pain, but like tons of fluff later on.⚠️

Borrower teams needing to communicate through an array of hand signs/signals, and only 1/2 to 3/5 of them are swears or insults 👍🏼

Borrowercore:

-bed is a nest made from a random assortment of comfy things

-eclectic in general

-feel the need to hold onto random things

-stealing little things no one would miss from ur dead end job

-comfy in small places

-fear of interacting with people

Imagine being a normal, functional-ish human bean walking around minding your own business and then BAM! You get into one little life threatening situation and now you’re indebted to a 10cm tall borrower who saved you’re life.

But maybe you guys become friends.

Idk, borrowers are survivors so they probably know exactly how to help you get better after your traumatic experience! And you’re basically a walking, talking rollercoaster. So whether you two are afraid to be caught being friends or not, you’ll probably wind up making one of the best friends of your life, entirely by accident

Nalbinding in G/T

Fiber Arts | Knitting | Crochet | Sewing

Honestly, this was the post I was most excited to make when I started this blog! I haven't seen many people talking about nalbinding, as it's not as widely known, but I think it could be a dark horse g/t fiber art.

The name nalbinding comes from Danish, literally meaning needle binding. It's a way to produce fabric from short pieces of wool yarn, using a large and blunt sewing needle-shaped tool to create stitches looped through one another. Tension can be kept over the thumb or the needle itself, and when torn or worn down, the fabric will not unravel!

It predates knitting and crochet by many centuries, although in form it is most similar to the latter. One stitch is worked at a time by running the needle through the working loops and the ever-growing fabric. There are many types of stitches with differing densities, tensions, and functions. Like crochet, nalbinding is very good for making things with odd or circular shapes, like socks or mittens or hats.

Nalbinding came into my radar when someone adjacent to my crafting circles asked about it, and I fell down the rabbit hole. It's still a relatively new craft to me, but it's gotten me so excited by the idea of sharing this with the g/t community!

For a brief history and demonstration of nalbinding (mostly to keep this post from being entirely too long) I highly recommend this short video. It certainly piqued my interest when I first heard of nalbinding!

The Potential

Nalbinding would be one of the easiest crafts to maintain by a tiny or a giant, in my opinion! For one thing, it's designed to use shorter amount of yarn at a time compared to knitting or crochet, which could be handy in environments of scarce wool sourcing (like a giant or tiny scavenging for materials). Wool would be ideal, since the fibers at the end of the yarn can easily be felted together in order to join a new strand, but it could likely be done with any fiber available.

The needles would be easy to come by as well since they can be made of wood, antler, or bone. So long as those materials are around, one can make a long, wide, and flat needle to use!

There are also more open-weave forms of nalbinding that could be great for mesh fabrics! Great for hunting/fishing for more outdoorsy giants/tinies, or bags for carrying larger items made with more conservative amounts of materials. Here's a tutorial video of someone using this looping style of nalbinding with plant fibers:

Nalbinding is a newer craft for me, and I'm still taking time to learn more about it! The project I have on the needle right now is going to be a small pouch-style bag; I'm not working from a proper pattern, sort of using the intuition I've learned from crochet to start a circular shape for the base, and now I'm working up the straight sides. It's still in the early stages, so it resembles a shallow bowl more than anything at the moment, but it's coming along!

This is definitely more of a ramble than previous posts at this point, but this is a craft I don't see talked about a ton and I more so wanted to put in on the g/t community radar to hopefully get a conversation started! Let me know if this sparks interest, I'd love to see other ideas for the g/t potential with this fiber art!

Im Crossing the streams...its a

BORROWERS X DOCTOR WHO POST

Aight so I dunno how the hell it would happen...but im imagining a borrower sneaking on board the tardis at some point...hell maybe she just lets them in.

And im imagining this dude just having 0 idea that the TARDIS is making their life easier. like im imagining the first room adjacent to the fonsole room for only them is the library/memorbillia collection. a room the resident "human" bean never enters. So this lil rapscalion mf just borrows whatever they need cus the bean who owns this place seems absent minded af... and ofc they find the kitchens and gardens they always do without much effort, so they find it weird that the owner loses track of rooms...they decide hes a nut. but then one day the man is a different man altogether and she assumes its gotta be some kind of child of the first but then one day the man isnt a man. and the tiny person is convinced it has to be the same person because they overheard them talk about regenerizing. Theres always new people coming and going with all sorts of different names but the one person who changes the least and also the most has just one name.

and then one day this comfy lifestyle tiny ass mofo gets brave and wanders into the console room on purpose.

and a brand new person is stood there checking some dials before noting something on a screen and turning directly toward them

and all they say is

"ah the stowaway...well to be honest youve been here long enough maybe a better title is flatmate. Nice to finally meet you"

Yeah of course the strange bean who changes knew. they always knew but respected the boundaries.

concept: a borrower who pretends to be a ghost haunting a house/apartment if they don’t like the current residents. all of the usual haunting signs - things moving on their own, strange noises from the wall, could totally be replicated by a mischievous borrower. it’s working great, at first; they even have some control over who lives in the house. but eventually the house gets a reputation as being haunted, and it becomes harder to find tenants for it. cue a human who’s desperate for a place to live renting/buying the place because its dirt cheap. the borrower tries to “haunt” them at first too, but they don’t have any other options for where to go so they decide to just put up with the “ghost”…until one night they see the borrower and are even more confused.
