Guess who has two thumbs and forgot he had video footage for a dyeing video waiting for a script?
I've hit a milestone with the medieval tunic weaving project, so I'm treating myself to a smaller project while I prepare for the next stage. This is @opuselenae 's Londinium Hood pattern plus the dagging expansion pack! I may end up making two hoods back to back, but we'll see!
Casual wizard vibes today.
New video is up! I made a button down shirt out of this fantastic pinstripe spider fabric for optimal stealth Halloween work days.⁠
Remember those woven pants I made a few years back? They're wearing out in some unfortunate places, so I'm refashioning them into a long vest with pockets. One thing I love about working with handwoven fabric is that the average sewing thread is nearly invisible on the wool fabric, so I can be lazy and sew running stitches wherever I need to hem or add cotton to cover the raw edges. No effort needed to hide those stitches. 🕺🕺
What's this? Another video? That's right! I wanted to make sure I got this one out soon after the previous video because it's about how I made the props and did that cool eye color change at the end of my cinematic reveal for The Witcher shirt. ⁠
