http://stitcher.blogspot.com/2006/07/still-no-stitching_21.html
A public note of my cross stitch projects, in the hope that I will one day finish them. Friday, July 21, 2006. Posted by rathgild at 7/21/2006 11:18:00 pm. Hang in there, girl! Don't worry about being off topic in the blog and don't let work stuff you around. Just remember that inch by inch life's a cinch; yard by yard it's too damned hard. Not) Just Another Femme Noire.

Geeks with pointy sticks: Feminist Uruk Hai
http://geekknitting.blogspot.com/2011/01/feminist-uruk-hai.html
Geeks with pointy sticks. Thursday, January 27, 2011. Plan for the future - I want to knit a little troupe (horde? Of feminist Uruk Hai. Why? An awful pun of course:. It is an army bred for a single purpose: to destroy the world of Men. The plan is to make up a simple Uruk Hai pattern, and replace the 'white hand' logo with a feminist sign. The hard part, I think, will be figuring out what distinguishing features the Uruk Hai have which make them different from any other small green humanoids?

Geeks with pointy sticks: September 2010
http://geekknitting.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Geeks with pointy sticks. Saturday, September 4, 2010. More computery fun: JavaScript. I've been playing around with learning some javascript just recently, and came up with this little sample program:. Of course this isn't a totally new idea - there is commercial software. Which does similar things, and the KnitML project. Aims to provide a common language to allow this to work. So yeah, I'm quite excited about the potential here to change out whole approach to knitting patterns!

Geeks with pointy sticks: Ode to mittens
http://geekknitting.blogspot.com/2014/11/ode-to-mittens.html
Geeks with pointy sticks. Sunday, November 30, 2014. It's been a while since I last posted here, but I've found a little more time for knitting lately, so have some new projects to share! With one thing and another, I've ended up listening to a lot of Beethoven lately, particularly the Ode to Joy (Beethoven is great music to code to). It's a beautiful piece of music, but it's the lyrics which make it absolutely stunning:. So, I'm a fan. And what better way to express that than with mittens? One other thi...

Geeks with pointy sticks: February 2011
http://geekknitting.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Geeks with pointy sticks. Sunday, February 20, 2011. Ok, another quick-ish project! This was suggested by Leah, who said I should knit one of these. I agreed, but said that if I did, I'd want it to be pink and have a bow on it's head. Then things got a bit political. While I do like pink things with bows on, I don't like that these are the universal. So that's the plan - a T-rex, with tentacles, pinkness and bows, and is ungendered. Worryingly, this is still one of the less weird things I've knitted.

Geeks with pointy sticks: International Women's Day! -- with Cthulhusaurus
http://geekknitting.blogspot.com/2011/03/international-womens-day-with.html
Geeks with pointy sticks. Tuesday, March 8, 2011. Ok, just a quick post now cos I want to get this up for Women's Day. As I explained, Cthulhusaurus is a combination of T Rex and Cthulhu. Loosely based on this image. Being an elder god, Cthulhusaurus is genderless. It is, however, pink and wears ribbons in it's hair*. Naturally if an elder god/giant carnivore mix decides to wear ribbons, it's best not to argue. Happy IWD, everyone! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Geeks with pointy sticks: December 2014
http://geekknitting.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Geeks with pointy sticks. Sunday, December 7, 2014. This project may be a bit self-explanatory. They're influenced by these:. And a general love of animal clothing. Since you have to get used to this different style of movement, these mittens mean you also get to pretend you're a lobster! The design is aimed to be slightly subtle, just a matter of shaping- The main section decreases from the outside, and the thumb is pointed and to the inside and extends a way beyond the end of the thumb.
