Has anyone who makes digital art tried the True Grit Texture Supply RizzCraft system? I love the look of Risograph and I wanna try it, but the price tag is a little high for a set I may end up hating?

When love of weaving collides with love of insects 🐜✨ I’ve been so fascinated by ants with really unique morphology and I wanted to interact with them artistically. I design a pixel image for each ant and then weave them into a teeny tiny overshot band 😊

I made a quick little pouch out of my woven ant bands! I designed 8 pixel charts of different ant species for this project, sized so that each band would be the same length. I chose species with, in my opinion, some of the coolest morphology- especially love the big heads 🐜 #weaving #sewing #ants

Another crotch seam repair, this one done by hand. The fabric had unraveled along the seam and created a hole, so I placed a black fabric patch underneath and reinforced with running stitches- aiming for subtlety!

Finally found a minute to nalbind a pouch with the grey wool. I like how the hint of green and blue turned out. Oslo, F2 stitch. 🧶

Craterium Roseum made for a really cool variegated with these hot pink pops against a neutral background. I think this would make for a WICKED fractal yarn.
Shop update Sunday the 9th at 12pm EST.

When it comes to boycotting, just a thought. It’s okay if you can’t quit a company cold turkey. In Master Gardeners, when we encourage people to switch to native plants, the goal is 70% native, not 100%. If you were shopping at a store 80% of the time and cut it back to 60%, that 20% still hurts.

The canary just died.
(Bloomberg) - Microsoft Corp. has begun canceling leases for a substantial amount of datacenter capacity in the US, a move that may reflect concerns about whether it’s building more AI computing than it will need over the long term, TD Cowen said in a report.
