Bought myself a folding knitting machine from the 80s. I’ve been looking for this model and managed to find one for sale this weekend 😁😁
First swatch using the punchcard function

My knitted jumper is getting there!

Few more rows of the body and ribbing. Then onto the sleeves 🧶

Houseplant day today

Most started out as little cuttings and have now taken over 😬🌱

[Katy @_katy_139]

As if I don’t have enough hobbies already, I’ve decided to learn to knit

Gone a little ambitious for a first project by making a jumper 😬 Using wool I already have and going for a random, abstract style 🤞

16th birthday today 🎈🎂 🎉

Quick sketch to begin figuring out my next larger piece, maybe nostalgia based 🤷‍♀️

Can’t decide whether to go for the hatching style or stick with pencil 🤔

I thought I’d begin by documenting the rediscovery of my old GameBoy and Pokemon Ruby

Messy self portrait last night

Stopped after 2 hours

Not too bad and actually really enjoyed myself. Excited to do another 😊

Oil painting in progress. Given myself a 3 hour time limit 😬

[Katy @_katy_139]

Really want to try this again but oil painting is so stressful! 😂

Around 2 hour and 20 minutes, no blending and trying to keep everything really loose

Some of my favourite photographs from trips to Venice and Kos last year 📷

Watercolour and fountain pen portraits.

Around 40 minutes each

Starting to explore adding colouring pencils to them now ✏️

@Mrs_H11 Went well thank you. I’m on the mend 😊

[Katy @_katy_139]

My longest personal creative project I’ve ever done is finished!

I gave myself the goal to finish it before my foot surgery tomorrow and I’ve just finished it, with less than 24 hours to spare 🍓

Not sure what to do with myself now I don’t have this project on the go! 🧶
