Art isn't just something you can draw. I want to set up this thread and post pictures of how I make art with yarn, chainmail and a sewing machine.

Chainmail:

Sewing: I'm really proud of this one. It was a tough pattern and the worst possible material to work with.



Kitting:
The first three images are a hat in progress
The Orange thing was my first project. A scarf for Ben
The next two images are something I made to play with making a Braided Cable pattern. Small yarn is hard to knit
The next is a dishcloth for Ben's mom and the one after it will be a scarf for his mom.
The one not started is what I'm going to use to make tube socks for SCA war
and the last two are pics of a hat I'm making also for SCA.
(Sorry for the bad images, I couldn't find my camera and had to use my phone)

Comments, questions, concerns?

Want to learn how to make chainmail or knit? I have skype, I can teach you!

Re: My crafty projects

Ooooo another person who likes to sew and do needlework! Very exciting! Your creations are lovely by the way, especially the chainmail. I've never worked with chainmail, so I can't claim to know anything about it, but I still think it is very pretty.

I may eventually make a thread with some of my things, it's good to know I won't be the only one! ^_^

I finished the red hat! As soon as I remember where I put it, I'll add it up here.

Re: My crafty projects

The chainmail is awesome. And I dont even pay much attention to colorful things.

Re: My crafty projects

I'd make a joke about "no dice," but that bag is obviously full of dice.

I'm horrible. I can't stop buying them, especially when the weight is good and they seem to like me in the store.

Re: My crafty projects

Every so often I help my mum with her knitting projects. It may be relaxing and all, also the clothes tend to be really comfortable.
However I find it complicated as hell and actually creating wearable things is on par with playing a musical instrument on a higher level.

Kudos!
