Here's a sneak peak into an upcoming video. I've finished my Witcher shirt project, but I'm finishing up some extra stuff to film the reveal. 🕺
Huzzah! A new video is live on the channel!⁠
Sometimes, you just have to admit that you're not in the right headspace to tackle a project. I've been trying to get a fitting mock up of these Men's Mod-Victorian to Edwardian Period Trousers. My 1.5 mockups are too big and too high in the rise and looking at this pile waiting for a mockup in the next size down just fills me with dread. 💀
I'm officially done with the spring semester! This means I have about 6 weeks of non-school time to work on projects and videos for the channel. Very exciting.
I find myself in need of a belt to go with a quick project that should be coming to the channel soon. 🤞🏻 So I'm taking the opportunity to practice my card weaving in preparation for some cardweaving to go with my Medieval costume project.
A new video is up on the YouTube channel! Follow along as I make a sweater on my LK 150 knitting machine and talk about both my history with machine knitting and the history of the knitting machine itself. ⁠
