#inktober2022day3 Prompt was #bat. When related to #fiber, there was only one thing to draw, obviously. If I do say so myself, I think I captured this fluffy, white wool yarn bat pretty awesomely in hard, black India ink. I wasn't sure if I'd be able to pull off my concept for today, and I don't pat myself on the back very often, but I'll give myself props for this sketch. 😁

Two sketches for #inktober2022day2. #scurry was the prompt, so I couldn't resist trying my hand at illustrating an #amigurumi mouse. Rendering #crochet texture proved to be a challenge, and I even searched for tutorials on how to illustrate crochet and came up with NOTHING. Apparently Google thought I wanted charts. 😂 I also thought India ink was permanent when it dries. Alas, not so, hence the random blurry areas on my first (less detailed) drawing. But sometimes the best things happen in surprises. Which do you like best? Can you tell I was drawing amigurumi? @inktober

#day1 of #inktober2022. I did some pre-planning and pre #sketching, so we'll see if I can get more days in this year. I'm following the prompts, but with a #knitting twist. My #knittingpeople will get this one and I hope, appreciate my sense of humor. I'm happy with the illustrative quality I captured here, but not so happy my ink ran a little. I haven't worked with ink washes much, and the point of this challenge is learning, so I'm not sweating it.

It was a beautiful day to take myself on a birthday hike. <3

Super excited and proud to be spending this morning watching my son test for his BLACK BELT!! This is the culmination of many years of training. Sharing this video because watching skilled martial arts people break a stack of boards is always entertaining even when it's not your kid. 😁

Stephen West is the master at knitting sayings, such as shlanket, but I've been known to invent one or two of my own. What you see here is what I like to call "palette cleansing knitting". 😁 It's not as alliterative as Stephen's knitting names, but it is apt, I feel. Washcloths and dish towels are the perfect knitting palette cleansers, and I usually get in the mood to make a few after finishing up major deadlines like my Team Spirit scarf and fair entry, both of which I knitted start to finish in two weeks. My definition of this kind of project is simple: it's small and easy with little to no brainpower required. Highly recommend for when you experience knitting burnout.
