Due to Circumstances, I need a knitting pattern from a tasselled wobbegong.

Tasselled wobbegong, "carpet shark". It's like an area rug with an enormous mouth and eyes. It could not look more like a D&D monster.

Trick question, ADHD book - If I was forced to choose a small number of priorities to focus on, I would simply die.

Partial book page:
(tick box) Two Hours a Day

Imagine that you were told by your doctor that you could only work for a maximum of two hours per day and not one second more. Without overthinking it, what you'd choose to do in those two hours each day...

Not totally sure it counts, but I always kinda loved the woodcut printing William Blake did on his poems? They're just so *handmade*, it's so very "oh yeah, this was just a guy making a zine of his little poems"?

Title page of Blake's "Songs of Innocence and Of Experience", lettering with lots of twirly bits merging into fire over Adam and Eve (I assume) lying covering their heads.

Coming outside to watch the sun set on the solstice! Half way to winter now!

Sun setting over the docks sky just going orange, a bright contrail heading towards the horizon and a seagull silohuetted against the water.

Gorgeous sunset tonight!

Sunset sky with dramatic clouds lit from behind, taken over a dock with some sailing ships in the foreground.

#OliveArtClub One tiny amigurumi teapot! (It doesn't hold its shape too well, it's lightly stuffed but a bit lumpy. Maybe with a bit of aggressive starching it would stay rounder. Still, fun!

Tiny cobalt blue crocheted teapot, sitting on a wooden board. A crochet hook lies in front of it.

The same crochet teapot, with the lid removed. The knob on top of the lid is a tiny bobble. Visible inside the teapot is the white stuffing inside the pot.

Data: structured! (The top one is a linked list, the bottom is an array. Still to finish: A hash table, and a binary tree.)

Two knitted data structures - made up of coloured plastic balls wrapped in knitted cups, attached by little arrows.
Top: loop -> pink -> green -> blue -> orange
Bottom: loop -> chain of four arrows, with side branches: blue, green, pink, orange

Bit of an 'arrowing experience so far.

A collection of little knitted arrows, laid out on a board, with string tails so over the place.
Arranged in rows of 8, 4, and 2 (of which one is bright green) arrows.

Did you go dressed as Diotoir?

Picture of Diotoir, from Robot Wars: https://robotwars.fandom.com/wiki/Diotoir?file=Diotoir+S3+Crop.png
It's a round robot, covered in red and black fur, with large eyes and a manic grin.

Knitting! (going to make just a few more of each, then assemble these into digraphs!)

A collection of coloured plastic balls, wrapped in knitted holders. The holders are brown, with a border matching the colour of each ball. The colours are light blue, green, orange and hot pink. They're all held in an upside-down step stool (because it happens to have a nice sectioned space).

Update: Probably not going to be thorium, I guess.

(NUCLEAR IS NOT THE SOLUTION)

If I had a dollar for every time I have been told about so-called thorium reactors in response to any of my criticisms of nuclear...

Knitting update: Balls!

A collection of plastic balls, each wrapped with a knitted holder. The holders are beige/brown, with a coloured lip matching the different balls. The balls are pink, green, orange and light blue. The holders have some loose strands that need sewing in.

I *am*, thank you for noticing, book guy.

Continues: "A final step in the analytical process of defining where variances and defects are likely to occur is to once again... "

Comb-able torus knitting! The plan is to add hairs to the spheres, then sew the handles on to each - that'll give comb-able 1-, 2- and 3-hole toruses. (Still not sure how actually comb-able these are, whether the hairs need to be much longer, or just more dense? More hairy, less bristly?)

Stacks of knitted C-shaped handles - one purple, two blue, three yellow. Each has "hairs" of a darker colour covering them. In the front there are three (flat) spheres in the same colours, and the balls of yarn that go with them.

Plz enjoy these cows I saw earlier.

Some cows standing dotted around the grass on either side of a little path. In the background there's a railway bridge, trees, and what looks like a nice blue sky.

Wtf, autocomplete??

Screenshot from Duolingo: Oscar says"the children's steps are full of energy". The text box has "I passi dei bambini sono pieni di" (the children's steps are full of) , with autocomplete offering "sangue" (blood) as the next word.

"If you see this I implore you to quote skeet with an unusual image from your posting device without explanation. Still definitely use alt text, though."

An old Humpty Dumpty statue withthe paint has worn away, leaving it eerily white, except for a heart in colours that look *kinda* like a bisexual flag.

TIL: Collagen is pretty.

Histology textbook page showing different staining of collagen and fibrous tissues. They are pink, purple and orange, and look kinda like storms on Jupiter. The page is titled "Support Cell Family".

It's such a nice day I'm struggling to be cynical and misanthropic.

Knitting! These are going to be a Maths Thing (a set of toruses that will, after a lot of sewing, demonstrate the "hedgehog combing" theorem)!

A set of knitted C shapes - one purple, two blue, three yellow, laid out in little stacks.

Wondering if I could knit the (Disney) Hercules Muses onto a pair of socks? I'm thinking replacing the triangular pediment with just a flat line, running around the ankles?

Screenshot from Disney's Hercules, the five Muses standing on pillars, holding up a triangular pediment. Thalia is much shorter than the others, so her pillar is taller.

Knitting! Made this combable torus, because maths! (It's not really that combable, I think I need to look into yarn that's a bit more drape-y for the hairs. But this was really aimed to just try out the techniques, before I make some more complex versions.)

A light blue knitted torus, with strands of electric blue sticking out all over its surface.
