I made a rosary to give to my mom on Christmas.
http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mc...f3dio3_500.jpg http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mc...3dio1_1280.jpg I used a St. Anne centre, since she's the saint of mothers, but also because Mom's mom was an Anne, and her first name is Anne, and my sister's middle name is Anne. I got a Benedict crucifix which apparently has a medal of St. Benedict on the back, which means it has an indulgence for a happy death (he's the saint of the dying) so I felt really really weird using it, but she's an embalmer/funeral director so hopefully it'll make sense. |

Daww, thanks! It was the first piece of jewelry I made, and I gotta say I'm really proud of it.
I had some beads left over so I made myself a necklace. http://i.imgur.com/riH8h.jpg http://i.imgur.com/CXyZF.jpg |
Tentacular!

I kinda want to dump a lot of stuff I've made here, but much of it is knitting... so does it go here or in the Knitting thread?
The pressure :( |
Eh. Whatevs.
This is what I do with sharp sticks https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.n...11870852_n.jpg https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.n...24694118_n.jpg |
SICK. I was just thinking the other day that if I get a start on Christmas gifts now I can have time to knit nice fair isle things.
|
Thanks Saya! I've whored out a lot of my old pics elsewhere but haven't posted them here, so do you guys want to see them?
|
Meh, no sense in the pics just sitting there I guess. I'm done holding out on you, have some knit porn

I love the lace stockings! I'll have to give lace knitting another chance, although I'm very partial to fishnet crochet. Is the pattern available online?
I recently finished a Newfoundland flag scarf and it got me out of my knitting funk. I got a Kobo giftcard for my birthday so I'm snooping for a new book for Christmas knits ideas. I also started planning out a shadow scarf pattern (cat faces) but it isn't going too well so far XD http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...er/scarf-1.jpg |
Thanks Saya! Yep, the pattern sure is available online. It's a free one on Knitty.
I found the fishnet pattern extremely easy, the worst part was redesigning the pattern to fit my smaller legs/feet and make up for the fact that my yarn was a different weight with zero elastic. (That's why it's chunkier than the Knitty pic.) Next time I knit these I want to try using Patons stretch sock yarn, as Esprit and Cascade Fixation both have high shipping costs for Oz. |
Oh for fucks sake. The link broke because Gothic.net starred out the l o l i t a in the name 'L o l i t a Legs'.
Just remove the spaces. http://knitty.com/ISSUEsummer04/PATTl o l i t a.html |
So you inspired me to try out intarsia again, I haven't done it since the monkey backpack thing.
http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...r/IMAG0019.jpg I think I'd like to do it again with sock yarn, a dice bag doesn't need to be that big and a few places are pulled too tight where it was pulled off, and its more box shaped than the original Lasombra icon, but its a good start. |
Woot! That looks awesome, I might have to make a dice bag of my own. I don't really play MTG anymore but there may be a Pathfinder game coming up.

I wish I still had these but I sold them. Those hornets were so pretty. The wire bits are all jenky but people wanted them anyway so wooo. |
