Step-by-step Sweater

I finished knitting my first sweater! This has been a long adventure, and I wanted to share some highlights.

This sweater was originally crocheted and finished on November 14, 2021. 5 hours later, a historic flood had come and destroyed my childhood home with 6-10 feet of water inside my house and our shop. The water moved with tremendous speed and I had lost all of my possessions. The sweater was thrown into a wet garbage bag with the rest of the clothes we thought could be salvaged, as the flood was from the river overflowing through dairy farms and from an asbestos tainted mountain run off. It was washed by some volunteers who I am very grateful for. Unfortunately it never fit right afterwards.

I was going to throw it away, but on November 28, 2022 I decided I should at least salvage the yarn.

This yarn has been so many places. I worked on the crocheted version in Washington DC, and New York. It even accompanied me on the NY subway in all its grimy sticky glory. This yarn has gone on every road trip the past 2 years. This yarn came with me on a cruise and I made so many nice rich old lady friends. I even got a nice handful of cough drops for showing a lady how to do the increase I was working on.

I decided to learn how to knit because I read on a forum that knit garments use less yarn and are less heavy, and that was my original complaint with the first one, was that it was too heavy.

I frogged and restarted so may times, questioned my ability to count, but I kept going. Here are some things I learned:

-Knitting is very fun, I would just want to come home and sit in my chair and spend all day working on it

-Frogging knit is alot harder than frogging crochet

-The absolute hardest part of the whole thing was weaving in the ends. Why is it so much harder with knit!?!

-The nicer knitting needles are worth the investment. I knit alot faster with cooperative needles and cables. The bamboo ones also don't squeak like the metal ones

-I learned how to hold yarn tension in my right hand! I'm so used to holding it in my left hand, that it took a solid 6 months of practice to get it! I still can't do it when I purl though.

This is how much yarn was left over. All the yarn I had to use came only from unraveling the crocheted sweater panels, all of my yarn had been lost otherwise, so I didn't have any extra skeins on hand at all. This is how much more yarn was used to crochet vs knit. That's why the first one was so heavy!

This is me washing and blocking the sweater, I laid down some towels to help keep my table from being soggy for days. I washed and rinsed with wool light delicate. All of the yarn had already been machine washed, but I just wanted to be gentle since this project took so long.

I'm glad to be done! I'm already starting a second one, and I'm being sure to document the whole process. I'm attempting some more techniques in my second sweater. The sweater was completed on December 22, 2023. Here are some final pictures of the sweater!

The pattern I used was amazing. I also followed along with the YouTube guide. I highly suggest this pattern/video if anyone wants to try knitting for the first time. Video link posted below.

"It's been a year, I feel so heavy... Mama, will this feeling ever stop?"

“Mijo. It hurts. But you have so many people who love you. We can help you carry that feeling and one day it might not feel as heavy.”

I've felt extremely similar numbness/depression that lasted almost a year #I'm not sure he'd have the focus to be proactive to change his hair so quickly. coz everything will be a reminder: he may not see the point #anyhow yea it's sweet to think of how respectful the others will be to him. asking him if he wants to take part during the first anniversar #the house wouldn't be decorated. he'd feel bad that they can't have as much fun as they apparently otherwise would #but obvs they insist they are very willingly dialing things down a lot and are also sad and grieving #but the key here is..aesthetically he's wearing a red sweater. that counts for something (thematically). for a reason

#ignore the people i am talking about the outfits here don't focus on the fact that they don't look at all like them #okay so i think usopp would be stylish but in a comfy way and with so many accessories she made herself with nami #and it's like greenish/forest colors and tops and overalls and either baggy pants or cargo #and sanji dresses either with turtle neck sweaters+skirts+tight jeans or with shirts and skirts or just suits #the point here is i think she'd wear the most lethal heels to step on her enemies over and over again #i am doing the projecting thing again because i basically dress like sanji but yea #black leg sanji #usopp #sanuso #fem sanuso

Wax Dante

I've worked on this for a while.

This was a challenge to:

1) create in a more painterly style

2) do something with a background.

I'm actually pretty pleased with how it came out but I'm so happy to be done with it.

50s or 60s au idk where homophobia isn't like um. real <3 and will is a poor prep and mike is a rich greaser and it's all cute and gay.

will wants mike to give him a ride on his motorcycle and pouts at him until he relents (as if mike hasn't been daydreaming abt this scenario for ages). mike's brain short circuits the first time he feels will hold on to him, and his heart threatens to leap out of his chest whenever he starts giggling and woo!-ing in his ear.

they often share a milkshake at benny's burgers where will talks and talks and talks and mike makes the conscious and incredibly valiant, taxing effort to pay equal enough attention to both him and his lips. (will flicks some of the milkshake glass's condensation at him and tells him my eyes are up here, mike.)

mike lets will eat the cherry n kisses away the whipped cream from the corner of his lips. he very chivalrously and mercifully does not comment on how red will blushes after, because he's a very good boyfriend. (he waits until later to bring it up ofc, specifically when will's gotten a little smug and off-guard.)

will is always locking arms with him and mike is always putting his arm around will's shoulders. mike gives will his leather jacket when will's cold and will ignores mike's many protests and just shoves his still-warm sweater over mike's head whenever he's CLEARLY shivering but refusing to so much as admit tht it's even a bit nippy outside.

will fixes his hair for him after and tells him while giggling that he looks like an angry bird right now. mike just blows his hair out of his face and glares at him without any bite to it bc he turns into a softie around will sure but also bc he's kind of screaming inside at the fact tht will's sweater smells just like him which means he'll smell just like him now and it's so warm and Oh My God He Was Wearing This And Now I'm Wearing It And That's Kind Of Like A Hug If You Think About It And—

#byler #will n lucas being preps and mike n max being greasers..... #😈😈 <- me when i think of silly lil byler aus that bring me such Peace n Joy #jus the thought of will blinking at mike whose teeth are chattering and jus . fucking pulling his sweater off and mike is 🤨❓ before #will steps closer and then he's like nO /WILL/ NO STOP I TOLD YOU I'M NOT COLD IT'S FI—(muffled noises) bc will's shoving this #thing over his head whether mike likes it or not until mike finally accepts defeat and lets will put his arms thru the sleeves n jus #😒😒😒😒😒's at him looking like a ruffled baby chicken. while will is trying fruitlessly to fix his hair and stifle his own laughter #before he eventually gives up and jus caresses mike's handsome freckled face and gives him a sweet peck #mike huffs n tells him that he's Clearly been a bad influence on him bc the will he knew would Never have manhandled him like tht #teehehehehheheheheheheh #mine #byler au

Thinking about what love island!Bakugou would pack in your bag when you have to go to Casa Amor.

#imagining him packing your teddy bear now sprayed with his cologne #or his sweater doused in it so you can wear it and no other guys will go near you #maybe he gives you something cute like his necklace to wear until you come back??? #or even just spraying your entire bag with his cologne so EVERYTHING reeks of him #and even if other guys step to you or pull you for chats you smell like Bakugiu #love island bakugou

God Casey Jr must have the most god awful absolutely phenomenal fashion sense, what with having a lesbian mom and a gay father

#rottmnt #rottmnt casey jr #rottmnt casey jones #rottmnt cassandra jones #rottmnt leonardo #rottmnt leo #my man walks out wearing the ugliest sweater known to man #cargo pants #and aviators #and somehow rocks it #good for him tbh #Leo takes him out for fashion trips at high end stores #Cass runs him through a goodwill in a shady neighborhood #the outfits they find for him are so god awful and yet so fashion forward at the same time #it’s nuts #one would think Mikey would ‘step in’ but homie ABSOLUTELY ADORES the creativity #Donnie only ever buys Casey purple clothes bc he’s a Purple Lover and we all know what that means #and Raph… can’t go shopping with him bc he just says Casey looks good in everything and doesn’t help #April buys him normal good looking clothes #but very much does feed into the homosexual disaster fashion bc she is ALSO a lesbian

[self-insert-nightshade]

I did some doodles on class worksheets when I should've been taking notes and these are def not accurate (no refs in class) so all from memory/vibes.

One day ill have more than just doodles for these too cuties (and some for cove actually)

#nightshades knick knacks #my art #doodles #olnf #olnf qiu #olnf tamarack #qiu lin #tamarack baumann #so doodles started off as just doodles that proportions failed at so just make oversize jackets #the trend of proportions being unproportionate continued #and oversized sweaters #oversized sweaters are cute #and then i thought qiu would be ok with wearing a skirt/dresses if you and tamarack wanted to play dress up (this is like step 1 ish) #and hed also be pretty chill with having his hair played with so long as its gentle and honestly might just enjoy the attention and #different sensory pieces ie accessories #twirling fluttery skirts go swish swish etc etc #ah but he wouldnt commit fully so he just wears everything on top of his clothes (so long as it fits) #also i only vaguely remembered how his hair was styled so hes got a bit of a cowlick ahoge situation because of how its pushed back #i think??? god man drawing without refs? vibes only deal

Flit (ginger) finds an injured, stray cat and is like "aw poor little guy... let's see if my sister can help you" and so he takes the injured black cat to Fleet. Who is then "I have no idea how to heal a cat" and turns him into a human, heals him, and is ready to turn him back into a cat but then he's just "WAIT IF IM HUMAN I CAN HELP YOU! LEMME BE A HUMAN! I WANNA HELP YOU!" and Fleet looks to Flit who shrugs since it's hard being the only assistance to his sister. So he proceeds to name the guy Eureka and now Eureka refers to Flit as "master" and Fleet as "mistress".

And obsessively tries to help them. But he also talks a lot at times and Fleet gets frustrated and turns him back into a cat as punishment and he sulks off to cuddle next to Flit... who is unfortunately much more patient than Fleet so he's now just stuck with this cat-guy-hybrid obsessed with him. And he doesn't regret /helping/ the cat but .... Eureka is really clingy. So he's just resigned to having either a black cat in his lap or a man looming over him asking "whatcha doing, Master?" at all times.

#my characters #also fun fact i guess idk these two are the flotsam and jetsam duo to fleet who is ursula based #and fleet and flit are twins who got banished from the kingdom their older bro rules bc fleet uses magic for not good #and then she is now like im going to RUIN our brothers LIFE and then gets the worst two henchmen in existence #her younger twin bro with no magic and a cat #but shes determined to be a menace regardless #also as a human eureka is like you know what the coolest thing is about humans??? sweater vests #THEYRE SO COMFY YOU KNOW? why dont you wear sweater vests master? i think youd look good in one #and flit just like i think you can wear a sweater vest as a cat too probably idk but - #and eureka is appalled that flit would ask him to overheat with fur AND a sweater vest #fleet will literally tell flit go find the other guy and flit is like did you try calling his name #and shes like no time you do it #so he walks like ten steps away and goes HERE KITTY KITTY and eureka either immediately appears to hug him #as a human of immediately rubs against his leg as a cat like I WAS WAITING FOR YOU TO CALL ME IM READY TO HELP #and flit doesnt know where his life went so wrong but whatever

Something something about both getting trapped in places called The Nest where children are held and used for wicked and unsavory purposes, escaping by meeting/befriending another child/prisoner only to have them meet a tragic fate that makes the other's freedom possible.

Also both being ridiculously good at parkour, and clambering around in ruins barefoot.
