#JOLTober prompt 20: memories

I have some very dear memories about learning how to knit as a young child.

I decided to venture into traditional art today into a medium I'm decidedly not comfortable using. Would love to get better though!


I remember when I was 6 years old, my mother and my grandmother taught me and my older brothers how to knit. They let me pick which yarn I wanted to use and I picked probably the absolute worst yarn. It was fuzzy and stringy and it was hard to see where the stitches were on the needles. I made so many mistakes, I dropped stitches and made holes, it was too narrow in parts and too wide in others, it was too short. It was terrible but my grandma wore that scarf I knit every winter until she passed.

media: watercolour + pencil crayon

It's been a minute, I got covid and was out of commission. 😷

Thank you to everyone that sent me well-wishes! I'm feeling much better now 😀 so back to our regularly scheduled program!

I tried to find the source to give credit to the photographer but all I found was some fake Nintendo game selling for $304 on Amazon.

I used to be really interested in 35mm photography. I have a small film camera collection with the oldest one being from the 1930s.

Based on some pixel art I made for the “fashion” prompt of JOLTober where I reimagined Princess Peach in different eras of European history.

See second image for the original art.

I think my favourite is the 1520-1540 Princess Peach.

Hoping to get my skates today! I’ve been a little obsessed so I tried to stave off my tendency to be impatient by creating this cross-stitch!

Update: Skates are here. I definitely didn't fall on my butt almost immediately.
