So we've been discussing if our game needs a subtitle. Do you think so? Our main contenders are "Rottenroots: Beneath the Canopy", "Rottenroots: Secrets in the Soil", and "Rottenroots: A Song of Soil and Sins".

I've posted about our key art before, and I wanted to let y'all know that we ended up with this design! Title separated into two words, but more importantly we fell in love with the purple hue!

Breaking all the rules with this one: it's not a Nordic pattern, but only the yoke will be colorful, and it's raglan increases!

So we've been getting some mixed feedback about the watercolor splashes on the characters' faces... What do you think, distracting are adding to the artistic whimsy?

Yeah nothing quite like frogging mohair yarn (because I was too lazy to make a gauge Swatch and realized my yoke was too short just when I finished one sleeve 😭) 🧶

We have a thing for characters with hidden agendas and secrets... Giving a twist to a character can make them so much more real!

Careful when choosing your #yarn: this cotton may be really nice and soft, but it's just a bunch of individual strings and of course splits like crazy. Blankets really take time when you need to redo almost every stitch 🫠

Sooo... Things are getting a little more serious. Now we're approaching a time when we can actually set a realistic publishing date! Most likely it will be some time in the beginning of next year!

We spent a stupid amount of time arguing if the name of our game (one word) should be divided in two words for the key art (for aesthetic reasons) 🤦♀️

Creating the hairpin crochet panels is fun, nice and repetitive. But joining them? Yikes. 🧶
