I’ve dusted off an old abandoned that’s I’ve had sitting for years (ok decades). I started this story when I was in high school, forgot about it till I found the original papers about 10 years ago. Since then I’ve slowly added to it, but was never my primary focus. I think it’s finally time to finish this story. @bookstodon

Early morning WIP Wednesday!

Two projects I'm working on. The alpaca is roughly half-done and on hold until I finish the memorial project. I did some work on it last night and this morning...and I was late for work because I got carried away. Ah well. At this rate it should be done in a couple of days.

The progress of last night's and earlier today's stitching of the memorial cross stitch piece

I might have to do some adjustments to compensate for the different aida but I'm really optimistic about it.

Making good progress on the test shawl.

When I finish this next repeat I'll do the edge chart. It turns out the modified chart is even simpler than I anticipated. Excited to order the super luxe yarn next month. Then we're going bead shopping!!

#WIPWednesday @knitting @crochet

(Not a serious question)

What constitutes a project a WIP?

Is it a #WIP if you frogged 10-15 swatches but still haven't found a #knitting or #crocheting stitch pattern you like for a scarf for this particular wool?

Is it a WIP if you've completed about 1.5m of a knitted scarf, love how it turns out but procrastinate finishing because you can't stop thinking to frog it and make it into a cardigan instead (there are enough balls of wool in my stash)? 🙃

WIP Wednesday: Dreadnought

Actually surprised at how quick the highlights and details came together. I need to do some final checks and cleanup then the basing and I'm ready to call this big box finished.

@warhammer40k

Warhammer 40k Space Marine Dreadnought primed with initial color painted on, mostly reds and blacks, with gold details.

Two repeats of the pattern done now and the cables are looking so lush.

Need to take a pause for this selfish knitting now as I've got to work on some birthday and Yule gifts. But it'll be waiting for me in the new year.

Oh dear!
Hello, my name is Suzy, and I'm addicted to buying yarn, patterns, and knitting 😂
I think I should get help. After telling myself I would work on my knitting WIPs instead I knitted a pair of scrappy socks.

Okay - thought this time I mean it, no more buying yarn or patterns. So the weekend I bought 2 more patterns and the yarn for them.
That's it! No more!

Er...um... this morning I bought another pattern. I mean - it's brand new! And on special! It's beautiful!
Oh and I have yarn... maybe.

Finished the first repeat!

Hoping for a blocking miracle with this one, the single ply Merino looks so... messy, even though I know I have nice tension. Not so much with this I guess.

WIP Wednesday: Apothecary

Final character from Leviathan is on the table. Trying something experimental and hit all the white armor with blue shade, then tomorrow I will bring it back to a blue-leaning white and hope to leave this as shadows. It worked on Sanguinary Guard wings once, but never tried a whole mini.

WIP Wednesday: Closing in on All Fronts

In the place where I can see the final result more clearly.

  • Marines need gold, silver, eyes, and details
  • Sisters need highlights, gold, silver
  • Possessed needs color/highlights
  • Apothecary needs creative thoughts on colors to use
  • Walls are done and I'm pretty pleased with those!

@warhammer40k

Three ruined walls painted blue and silver with rust creeping up the side.

Long time no WIP. I am currently working on the Cosmo Cardigan. The double knit buttonband is a pain and tedious but it will be totally worth it.

Weekend WIP: Angels, Sisters, Walls

I'm waiting on some new backdrops to arrive before taking more photos. In the meantime I keep plugging away:

  • Last Leviathan squad started,
  • Sisters ready for shade/highlight/base,
  • possessed needs colors,
  • 3 more walls

Blood Angels Strenguard

Using this month's free guy to test my assumptions for doing veteran Blood Angels. Base colors and shade applied quickly. All the brown will become gold eventually.

Weekend WIP: All Over the Place

Nitpicking final details on the Infernus, starting the Strenguard, and the sisters I grabbed off the shelf while looking for a particular magenta because I suddenly thought they couldn't need that many colors.

WIP Wednesday (Give or Take): More Fire!

Wrapped up my Terminators but I haven't sat down to take she photos yet. Picked up the momentum to start the second half of the Infernus and a pile of knives with a lieutenant hidden underneath. Base colors are down, metallics next. NMM or normal metallics on all that knives?

@warhammer40k

SpiceMerchant, to warhammer40k

WIP Wednesday: Home Stretch

Almost at the end for these terminators. Bases need shade, highlight, details, rim, and Tyranid head. Then two faces and two power swords. Some heat damage on the assault cannon. Final touch ups and I'll call everyone here finished.

Tribute to Minis Past

Grabbed these from my random second hand marines when the new versions were announced. I'll keep that color scheme for the new scouts when they drop (c'mon new Kill Team box). Looking forward to better jump pack poses.

Also, check out that scale creep between the old scout and the new captain!

Tonight is a perfect evening. Curled up with a hot cocoa, watching Fey and Flowers (I love you Major Hob), and cast on a new project!

This yarn is a DREAM to work with. It's a single ply merino that is basically just a string of cloud.

Pattern is Maker's Dozen, inspired by braided bread, fitting for a yarn color called Rustic Rye.

Pair to Paint in October

New is themed "colorful" so I grabbed these two as my best choices to do something in that way.

Happy ! 🥳
My favorite lines of today from my :

~~
“Nice to meet you, Berman,” brightened the woman, looking kindly at the rest of them.

Berman huffed, rolled his eyes and was gone. Still there, physically—just a growling distance away—but safely enclosed within a refusal pose.
~~

I often wish I could do that, too, when I don't have enough mental energy to talk to new people.

Or to ones I already know.

Can you relate?...
