A long time ago in Iceland I made this, largely knitting outdoors, as a part of a costume for a character of Icelandic origin. Water on the bottom of Kerið crater really has this eerie shade of teal kerid.is #iceland 🧶 #knitting #knitsky #knittersofbluesky #craftsky #yarn #shreweknits

Hi, 200 followers! I make things, tell stories, play games, grow pumpkins, entertain various creatures (these days mainly cats and rats - not at once), and turn trash into treasure. Have a hat for my mom, black yarn is upcycled. 🧶 #knitting #knitsky #knittersofbluesky #craftsky #yarn #shreweknits

This ashen giraffe has been around since 2020, and is only getting started. Aven is a hardworking tailor exported to Ishgard, where he got himself tangled into petty inheritance wars and less petty dark magic business.

New hat project, this time for my mom who wanted a really warm one, and a new technique learned - smocking. A tad hellish in plain black wool, but the result is so worth it. 🧶 #knitting #knitsky #knittersofbluesky #craftsky #yarn #shreweknits
WIP knitted hat, with textured black brim and gradient pink and black stained glass-like body, with attached two yarn balls in corresponding colours.

Congrats! I don't really want to take someone's space in the contest since I maniacally gpose myself, but please have my timid tailor in a default form based on Moroni's painting, and in a Sin Eater form
A FFXIV screenshot stylized like a painting in a gold frame: a portrait of an ashen-skinned, white-haired Elezen male, glancing at the camera while standing at a table with a pair of scissors in one hand and reaching for a piece of fabric with another. He is wearing glasses, a white shirt with rolled up sleeves, a navy leather vest with a black cravat, a tool belt, black gloves and pants. A FFXIV screenshot of an marble-skinned, white-haired Elezen male, stylized to look like a Sin Eater from the same game, with golden triple wings, halo, jewels and nails, golden glowing eyes and absent smile.

🧶This shawl was made by my mom, but since she's not on social media, I will boast in her name ❤️Almost 2 meters across and a meter long, made from around 500 m of wool. Def took after her in terms of #knitting madness. #knitsky #knittersofbluesky #craftsky #yarn #shreweknits
