There's a truly amazing #crafter #market that opened up in town recently. I only just discovered it a few weeks ago, and I'm fascinated by the wide variety of #art to be found in their space. If you're ever in #Springfield #Missouri, stop by Fina's Market!

A photo of a crafting and art display. The wood and metal shelf is crowded with fake plants, flowers, a birdhouse, books, ceramic figurines, and various other knick-knacks. It's a purposely cluttered and overcrowded space with a green wall behind it.
A photo of a crafted humanoid figure. It appears to be a typical plastic Barbie doll that has been entirely covered with strands of multi colored yarn, patterned fabric, and beads.

Happy #portfolioday!

I am a #writer, #crafter, and #ttrpg designer and podcaster.

You can see more of my work by checking out my portfolio here: https://kelseylynnclarey.wordpress.com/

Picture of a metallic grey hand knit scrarf in an oval frame. Text alongside it reads "Hand knit scarf sale. $30. Winter warmth mixed with fabulous fashion. In a beautiful neutral colour, this hand knit scarf measures approximately 46 inches long. Dress up any coat during the cold winter months or give as a gift to your favourite fashionista."
White text against a black background reads "Court of Blades #18: A Faithful Friend is Hard to Find. Just Roll With It."

Gold embellishments are in the bottom left and top right corners. A sketchy masquerade mask is slightly askew above the text.

Hello, hello!

I guess it's time for a little #introduction

My name is Kelsey and I go by IslandersCaper most places on the internet.

I use she/her and fae/faer pronouns, I was born in 1995, and I've moved around Atlantic Canada a lot, but am currently based in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

AelyryaPayne
3 months ago

Time for an update, so here's my new #introduction!

I'm Aely, and I'm an #artist #writer and #crafter from the #UK

I mostly work in #fantasy #scifi and #ttrpg spheres, though also do #reviews and record a podcast with @ioshiv

My weaknesses are pretty #dice and cool #miniatures , and I'm currently commissioned to draw the #CharacterPortraits for #HomebrewHavocSeason2

My #signaturestyle is the #HighLow, though I also work in colour and on maps!
Check out my website for more! (Link Above!)

The image shows a depiction of the Bonemire, an original creature from Aely's "World of A'arde" series of books and games. The creature features a coyote's skull with extra-elongated fangs, a canid spine, shoudlers, collarbones and forelimbs, with deformed canine-like "hands" offscreen. The creature is encased in a viscous, clear ooze that is mildly acidic, and it's eyes and inner mouth glow a sickly green. The background, which is partly visible through it's ooze-like form, is black with a red splat upon it.
This image is named "Còmhla ri Anam", which translated into English roughly means "together with soul" or "fated one". It is a High-Low portrait using black and white on a neutral grey background, featuring two male characters in an embrace. Both are looking to the left of the image, as though watching something, and are dressed in mediaeval shirts and cloaks. The man on the left is taller, with darker hair (blonde) and markings upon his throat and jaw resembling slim flames. His cloak clasp resembles a willow leaf, and his ears are long and pointed. He has his right arm up and is touching the other man's neck. The man on the left is shorter by approximately five inches, and his hair is white with a slice of darker colour at the fringe. He has white, vine-like markings on his cheekbones and long, pointed ears that slope backwards. He has a more delicate appearance to him and could be considered "pretty" or "feminine" in comparison to the other man.
This image is called "Emergence of the Harbinger" and features a landscape of a misty open sea at night, beneath a starry and slightly clouded sky. In the centre of an image, the silhouette of a four-masted Galleon or Ship-of-the-Line (large sailing ships) can be seen emerging from the mist, surrounded by green fog and highlighted along the bow by a green light. The main colours of the image are dark blues, greys and black, with pops of white as the stars and the misty green in the centre.
This image is a top-down view of a snowy hill, with a lake to the top right, a small cliff to the bottom right, and a tree line along the top to the top left. In the lower third of the left side, there is a depiction of a glowing grey-brown stone monolith with glowing purple lines and light extending from it like a lighthouse. The scene is depicted during the day, and has a grid of 1-inch squares over it for use as a TTRPG map. The main colours of the scene are white, blues and browns, with a pop of purple. The image is hand-drawn and textured, using inked outlines and gradiented shading.

Question for the #maker and #crafter folks out there. I know a lot of you use Creative Fabrica. What are your thoughts on it? Is there an alternative you prefer?

What self-made tool do you use the most?

Mine are probably these thin hardwood pieces I use to pry lacing apart to make room for tensioning lacing when I'm building drums. They just...work, better than anything else I have tried. They don't pull the lacing or damage the drumhead or ring sheath in the process. I have several sizes, depending on the need.

The good thing is I can make more if/when they break (which the tips do on occasion).

Since no one I know irl follows me here I can share this finished hat before I give it to my dad this weekend. I used the Sigges Hat(adult version) pattern by Kultknit (if you've been following me for a bit, you might remember that I used her original pattern, Sigges Hat, for my toddler).

I met guage and knit with Sandnes Garn Peer Gynt in Smoke held together with DROPS Kidsilk in Sea Mist.

I tried out helical knitting to break up the mohair colourway I used and I wouldn't necessarily recommend that for this pattern because it made the decreases a bit confusing, but I'm really happy with the end result, so it was worth it for me.

Freshly blocked wide brim knit hat modelled by my 4 year old. It has a base colour of deep grey with a mix of lighter and darker blues throughout.
This angle shows the ridges in the decrease section a bit better. There are 3 even ridge sections that come together at the center top of the hat.

It's come to my attention that it's Mastodon tradition to make an #introduction post.

I'm an #artist, #writer, and #crafter. I enjoy:

Many genres including #horror #fantasy #history #romance #mystery #folklore

I'm #nonbinary and part of the #LGBTQ community.

Here's some of my work:

A haunted mariner faces the viewer, his gaze staring into the middle distance. Swarms of skeletal faces hover around him. One such spirit places a bony hand on the mariner's shoulder, leaning over to whisper in the man's ear.
Three gorgon sisters work together in a warm and sunlit kitchen to make cookies for a Gorgon Scout Bake Sale. The eldest holds a tray fresh from the oven. The snakes in the hair of the eldest are all fashionistas wearing many different outfits. The youngest has her snakes out in sloppy pigtails (which fail to prevent them from trying to steal a cookie off the tray near them). She is wearing overalls and stirring cooking batter with TOO MUCH ENTHUSIASM. The middle sister wears a Gorgon Scout sash and is going through recipes. Her snakes are all business, holding ingredient lists, recipe cards, and calculating weights with a calculator.

Latest work on my “Gauntlet of Treasure Finding” - got a bit more work to do, so far I’m happy with the progress. #AltTxt #AltText #LeatherWorking #Maker #Crafter #RPG #DungeonsAndDragons #Pathfinder

Photograph of shaped leather that has a treasure map on it.  It is a tapered square with four grommets on either side for the lacing. Once laced it wraps around my right forearm as a gauntlet. This is purely a piece of whimsy I’m working on.  Mostly this is an exercise to sharpen my leather carving skills and technique.  I learn so much with each project.  Especially when I’m limited in mobility it’s nice to be able to occupy my mind on something other than my pain.

I started a frog today! This is Claire Garland's pattern. I'm using worsted weight yarn and US6/4mm needles. This is a sort of practice knit, and I'll be doing smaller ones later.

Sometimes being a serial #crafter is a pain. Getting super into something for a bit, only to drop it entirely later often makes me feel like I don't accomplish much. But sometimes I do. This is one of my favourites. Hopefully y'all can zoom in to see the detail.

I shared a bit about this project already on Instagram, but I've stumbled into designing a pattern for a tapestry! It feels a little weird to say that since I've only recently started knitting, but I've been working really hard on this, and I'm feeling really proud of it.

I chose my yarn to emphasize the boho type feel I'm going for, but I'm very interested in trying it with a simpler solid colour with a tighter ply as well as something more rustic.

My autistic brain apparently can't approach things like this casually, so I'll be looking for a tech editor and pattern testers once I'm finished testing it all the way through myself first. I'm not sure if anyone here would be interested, but I'll share updates as I go! I would be so happy to see some other people be able to make it their own!

I've been quiet here because I hit a roadblock with my hat project and I'm getting frustrated. I have attempted the decrease section 5 times, and it just looks off. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

If anyone wants to help, it's Sigge's hat(free on ravelry) and the pattern for this section says:
Row 1 - k23, k2tog, k, ssk, k23, k2tog, k, ssk, k23, k2tog, k, ssk
Row 2 - Knit
Repeat rows 1 and 2 (with 2 fewer stitches at the start of row 1, so k21, then k19, etc) until 8 stitches remain

It's supposed to make a sort of ridge situation but mine just looks like it's sort of... leaning? I don't really know how else to explain it. The first picture is of an earlier attempt at that section. If anyone knows how to help, please let me know.

The second picture is of the tapestry I cast on yesterday. I'm not using a pattern for that one, just planning to play around with stitches until it looks how I want it. I'm starting with the moss stitch and going top down because I like the sturdiness and I just think it's pretty.

@knitting #knitting #beginner #SpecialInterest #crafter #UFO #WorkInProgress

Terracotta yarn on circulars. The blue stitch marker is to remind me that this is the starting side and is close to the beginning of the section. The left(pink) marker on top is the end of one of the three sections(k23, k2tog, k, ssk) in the row and the red marker to the right is after the 23rd stich of the section. All three sections have this left-leaning quality instead of one even ridge pointing straight to the top of the hat.
Yellow speckled eco cotton yarn on US size 8 straight needles. I cast on 61 stitches. Several rows completed in moss stitch, slipping the first stitch of each row purl-wise.

New Year's goals for me are less about resolutions, more about setting things in my sights to accomplish. Whether or not I do so is always a different story.

Anyway, either way -- goal this year is to complete my fantasy murder mystery novel, get blogging again, and move my KoFi shop over to Etsy, then eventually shut down my KoFi.

Learn how to use resin. Learn how to knit. I figure these should all be achievable.

the latest in my expansion of my #bio and #introduction

I'm a #subversive #crafter

I enjoy #crochet, #CrossStitch, #sewing and #knitting I'm not very good at any of it, but I love the process and I love gifting people things I've made.

I find that the juxtaposition of 'lady-like' crafts with harsh messages amuses me, and I really appreciate it as an act that can subvert patriarchy. Over the years I've made pillows with #ACAB and #FuckThePolice designs on them, cutesy wall hangings that say 'Don't let the cat out, or the cops in', cross stitch pieces with flowers that declare 'misandry!', and various other items.

At the start of the pandemic I learned to sew 3 layer quilters cotton masks, and gave them away in exchange for a donation to #SistersInside.

I'm starting to learn embroidery and am horrified at how bad I am... but I'm trying not to give up.

I think that's something I enjoy about craft - I grew up being very good at things and learning very quickly, which meant that I didn't have to try hard and struggle to learn. It also means that I've grown up with the idea that if I don't pick up something immediately, I'm never going to learn how to do it. Craft gives me the space to be bad at it, because the process is more important to me than the product. It's helping me learn that 'progress over perfection' is desirable, and that it's ok for me to make mistakes.

I never gave an intro because I was just checking things out, but now that I plan to stay—this is me:

Born and raised in West Virginia, I spent most of my life studying Appalachian culture and religion. I live in Idaho now, but still advocate for Appalachian people.

United Methodist clergy. Queer (that’s why I moved—long story.) Extremely progressive, politically & theologically.

Hey #crafter / #modeller mutuals;

Do any of you have a nifty little "circle cutter" for masking tape, something like this:

that I could borrow? Ideally in Kāpiti/Te Whanganui-a-Tara regions?

I need to cut a multitude of tiny circles/rings in my upcoming future.

Did I never do an #introduction for here???

Hey y'all. I'm an avid #crafter and #writer. I work in #webdev at a digital marketing agency. I live in the middle of nowhere and own #goats and #chickens, and am working on setting up a (very very) small goat #dairy even though there's no money to be made in dairying anymore.

My current #fandom is nothing, although I think I might jump back to working on my #Lucifer AUs as a stop gap. #AmWriting an original scifi OT3 horror novel.

A recent focus of my art has been on pattern design. I design with the end goal of my work being used in clothing or decor that I would personally like to wear or decorate with.

You can get these patterns on fabric, wallpaper and homegoods through my spoonflower shop:
