I probably won't manage to make anything new for #goblinWeek this year but I will take the opportunity to share the collage poem I made last year, since it is still one of my favorite things I've made
New #collage #poem, about climate change and planting seeds.
This is the second poem I've made by collaging together bits of text from an old econ workbook. (I'm planning to put them all together in a zine when I've completed a few more.)
The first poem, A Bad Dream, can be found here: https://emmajuettner.com/posts/a-bad-dream/
New #introduction now that I've set up my own server— hello, I'm Emma! (previously @emmajuettner@mastodon.art; I'll be migrating my follows over to this new account shortly)
I tend to post about knitting, making collage poems, cooking, creating generative art, mending clothing, tinkering with HTML & CSS, and reading sci-fi stories.
I hope this email finds you lying very still in your bed, and looking surprisingly healthier than you looked the night before.

I crocheted a cable tie and now I can’t stop making them.

I love it when they stick one of their legs straight out like this. Reminds me of so many things: riding a mechanical bull with one arm in the air, a ballerina stretching a leg straight up, a very friendly wave hello.

Picked up an 80s paperback today that, based on the back-cover description, I was expecting to be an eco-thriller about corporate negligence leading to a public health catastrophe.... And it is that, but it turns out this book is also incredibly horny. I haven't even finished chapter two yet and there have already been multiple sex scenes
I made a website. it's called "one million checkboxes dot com". it has one million checkboxes on it.
checking a box checks it for everyone.
that's it. have fun!
I stumbled across this 10-min short film on YouTube today: Gruff, by Julian Curi. It's really incredible— the animation is done with handcrafted paper puppets and props, with so much attention to detail. The story is also really touching (CW: parental death)
I hope this email finds you and carries you home.

A minor tweak to the charted design above makes for a true counterchange pattern. This chart can be used for a variety of hand crafts, not only knitting!

I was going to go to bed on time this evening but then suddenly my brain decided I urgently needed to make some scratch paper notebooks out of junk mail envelopes... Now the hyper focus has worn off and I am very tired, thanks brain
(I am very happy about how the notebooks turned out, though)
Much better photos of Cait Conquers’ tea towel dress (I also saw a snippet of video online - that dress is heavy!)
