#FiberArt
If you like #textiles or #fiberart and are anywhere near #WestYorkshire, I'd heartily recommend checking out http://woveninkirklees.co.uk/
There are 100+ events happening, the vast majority of which are free: workshops, talks, walks, exhibitions, working mill tours...
The #Quilting exhibition includes political craftivism, quilts made collaboratively by local communities, and work by artists - both traditional and abstract. Gorgeous work!
Lots of natural #dyeing and fun repair sessions too.




Ok creative types - I need an idea please. I want to crochet a cover for this object that we use as a door stop. What creature or object can I turn it into? We're retired gardener types living in a renovated country church and irony, sarcasm and dark humour are greatly appreciated.

Back from the #museum and #culturalHeritage Centre. Our summer program will be great: Everything about #plant #fibres and #fiberArt, #exhibitions, #workshops, #concerts ...
Now guess what we found as plant fibre #music! #Bluegrass, of course!
Sounds perhaps also crazy but our annual Bluegrass Day is an Alsatian tradition with German import.😂 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A11-oDNb_cs&t=2s Is this already cultural appropriation or sweet revenge for American Oktoberfests? 😎 🤣

my mother recently gifted me my grandmother’s #embroidery #floss collection, and I’m kind of blown away that I didn’t know it existed.
It has #DMC floss with labels so old, I can’t even find reference to them on the internet.
It also has a bunch of Soviet floss, that I’m pretty sure predates the 1961 currency change, based on the prices indicated on the labels.
I want to use it and save it at the same time.

i started this sweater in 2014. 😅
all i have left is the cuffs and button placket? for some reason that seems like it's taking longer than the rest. :blobcatdizzy:

Écharpe "queue de sirène". Je n'était pas sûre si la scinder en deux allait donner quelque chose de joli au moment de la commencer mais je suis contente du résultat 🌞 Prochaine étape : la broder !
//
Scarf "mermaid's tail". I wasn't too sure if dividing the end in two parts would look good when I first begin knitting it but I like the result 🐉Next : I'm going to embroider it !

Any spinners have recommendations for which types of plant fibers are best for beginners? I just got a sample pack and will be trying them out myself as well, but I'd love input. I'll be doing a skill share for #spinning soon and want to give attendees who want wool alternatives an easy fiber to work with!

Don’t want prompts? There’s a monthly newsletter, and April’s is going to be all about the fibre arts and magic in myth and folklore. Sign upppp!
And that's duckling number 2...
As expected a bit bulky, but I'm happy with it. Several things clicking into place in my mind with this one, and I'm getting closer to what I'm aiming for. Two more waiting to be finished, but I might do something different first.
interlocking crochet is fascinating, it involves interweaving 2 mesh layers together so whichever segment is pushed to the front shows up and creates the image. here i made a little swatch to learn the basics.
"So I have my next knitting project picked out. It's perfect for a lot of reasons: reviews say it's easy to knit but not boring, I figured out how to do it with two ombré yarns instead of six single-color skeins, and I already own the pattern. BUT I don't have the right yarn for it," I told my friend.
"What if we knit it together?" she asked. "Then you *have* to buy the yarn!"
A++ friending, would recommend.
My latest cross stitch! I've been working on this for the past few weeks, it's probably the most complex pattern I've tackled.
Free pattern from www.dmc.com.
what I'm working on .....is all wonky rainbows #neuroart #sciart #neuroscience #fiberart #textileart
recently while crocheting, i was reading a diagram and crocheting along. it felt as though i was a pianist reading musical scores! i marvelled at the brain’s ability to learn a foreign language, one made of unique symbols & rules; to be able to read such graphical patterns in a linear manner, in through the eyes & out through the hands. as if cranking a hole-punched paper strip through a musical box & voilà! out comes something entirely different, music. remarkable isn’t it?
One ducky has left the team and found a new home, but a 5th has joined the skein, raft, waddle, after loops and loops of yarn code.
I can’t stop…
This week in #fiberuary it’s intentional holes week. Here’s a sweater I knit over 30 years ago made from yarn that I picked up at the medina in Tangier, Morocco when I was visiting my parents in my 20’s.
Most people think of open holed knitting as lace, but in bulky yarn, a four rows of garter stitch (two ridges), followed by a k2 tog yo row, then more garter, makes for a strong and textured band of color.
the shawl i crocheted for my aunt, whose fav colour is purple 💜
based on the #havanashawl pattern by talented designer @tinnahekl
I've been on Mastodon for almost two months and still haven't posted an #introduction so here goes:
I'm an #actuallyAutistic #trans lady whose main special interest is #language . I also enjoy #fiberArt , #philosophy , #music , #juggling , #plants , #dogs and many other things.
I'm a #leftist with #anarchist sympathies, but struggle to conceptualize what meaningful praxis looks like.
I work and go to school so I'm not online very much, but my DMs are always open. Always feel free to say hi <3
All right it's HERE! I'm so excited to announce the Whalebone Stitch Club, launching in March. This project has two parts: a monthly newsletter exploring the history of fibre arts, and a Stitch Club with monthly prompts to encourage artistic intuition and creative autonomy.
I'm running a promotion during the month of February: Anyone who signs up before March 1 will receive the first prompt, regardless of your tier level. Join the club!

#Color #Crochet for #fiberuary
Rainbow is one of my favorite color combinations. Whenever I see them, they just cheer me up and so I have made quite a selection of rainbow colored projects over the years.
This is a baby blanket, still waiting for a recipient - but one day the right baby will come along.
Working on my new website (not online yet) which involves taking some new pictures. I had completely forgotten about this little blackcap birdie made a little over a year ago.
You saw her faux denim jacket, and you saw her as Santy Paws, now get ready for The Overseer!
I hope you studied, Vault Dweller, because the G.O.A.T. exam is today!
One of you lucky test-takers will be awarded the coveted career: Petter of the Overseer.

I have too much heavy hair for a hat to fit comfortably, so I made an ear warmer!

Disclaimer: This yarn is from Hobby Lobby, but I didn't buy it. My Christian MIL bought it for her purposes, but she gave up on her project and offloaded the yarn onto me.
It's a nightmare to work with, but it's kind of fluffy, so I put it to use.
Under no circumstances should you give money to Hobby Lobby.
CW: No direct eye contact, but censored anyway, just in case.
I didn’t code today, instead I made a hyperbolic ducky (they are possibly the best listeners). #mathart #rubberduckdebugging #hyperbolic #crochet #fiberart #exponentialGrowth
Hi fellow knitters and fiber artists. (Yes crocheters too). I love seeing your work. But would mind adding descriptions to your photos to make them accessible?
I have a friend who is blind and she knits. I’d share your work if you added descriptions. Most of y’all don’t.
Thanks.
I've rejoined Feedly! All this talk about owning your own work and building community around who I am and what I love.
Looking for people who write for their websites/blogs on any of the following hashtags: #quilters #embroidery #FiberArt #Mystery #SciFi #authors #MissouriPolitics #ColumbiaMO #PublicLibrary
There are more but I got to log off and get to the next desk here at the library. We switch desks every hour so no one gets too bogged down in anything.
Nice to meet you! ✨

Here is an embroidery I made last year. I love it a lot so I decided to share it with you. #embroidery #FiberArt #MastoArt #needleart #Photomonday
Good lord 😆🧶❤️❤️ I was busily knitting away when I happened to glance up and saw my pup Cory looking very pleased with himself 🤦🏻♀️ #MinPin s and their need to burrow and baskets filled with #yarn are NOT a good match 😆😆🥰 cute picture though it is

(Oh! and of course, after taking the picture, I detangled my pup and put the yarn in a different container inaccessible to my dog.)

My #dog wanted to be in my purse photo, so here she is in all her hirsute glory. Meet Pixel.
I'll tell her any nice things you say about her.
I can't adjust white point on her or she turns blue, so the purse doesn't look good in that photo.
