quick info for new people

General information about me can be found at https://aque-iriascend.carrd.co - I will not be sharing any more personal information than there is on that page.

I will not tell minors to DNI and I don’t usually post NSFW things, so you’re free to stay if you want. But be aware -  this is an adult space; children will be treated like children. 

I’m what people call a pro-shipper, that is, I’m against censorship of dark fiction and ‘problematic’ art. If you have beef with that, please keep silent or you will be blocked on sight. If you can keep quiet, you’re free to stay. If you interact with me on your own accord and you later find out about this opinion of mine, and you don’t like it - that’s a you problem.

You’re free to message me about anything as long as you stay polite and sensible. Anon asks are usually turned on, but this privilege can and will be revoked at any sign of hostility.

This is a safe space for queer and LGBTQ+ people (including aros, aces and intersex folks), as well as POC and disabled people. TERFs or racists will not be tolerated. 

I am generally rather frivolous with the block button, curating my online experience very closely. Don’t take it personally, unless you crossed any of the boundaries mentioned above.

This comic was published in 2010 and I remember going to a talk at Cal Tech presented by Dr. Lucy Jones (LA’s favorite celebrity seismologist) in 2012ish where half of the audience question portion of the presentation was accusations that scientists were covering up earthquake predicting technology because we finally had somewhat effective earthquake warning systems as a result of faster data transmission technologies and the widespread adoption of cellphones.

Dragongirl kidnaps a maid instead of a princess by mistake; comes back to her lair after a hunt to find the coins and gems in her hoard have been organized into neat piles sorted by type, value, and kingdom of origin.

Her princess is a little special but she’ll keep her around.

WHUH??? THIS IS SO CUTE???

Want to knit this scarf? You can download my free pattern here! :)

This is called illusion knitting! Basically, you knit a pattern in 2 color stripes, but then you use the difference between the texture of knits and purls to make a pattern appear at a low angle

When you look at it from the aide, a knit stitch looks flat while a purl stitch looks like a little bump. So if you have a pattern of knits and purls you look at from the side, the knit stitches will fade into the background while the purl stitches will stay visible. You use that effect, while keeping a steady stripe pattern, to create the illusion:

From above: plain stripes because your eye focuses on the colors

From the side: you see the pattern of purl stitches because they stick up above the flatter knit stitches

(Photos source)

And this lets you do some absolutely AMAZING patterns:

Plain stripey shawl becomes a PORTRAIT

Or, like above, a scarf becomes the One Ring

This is fascinating, thank you for the explanation! I´ve never seen something like it, but I´m also not the most experienced knitter.

A source for patterns is http://www.illusionknitting.woollythoughts.com/information.html

The main site has all kinds of interesting knitting stuff, but this page is *just* illusion knitting.
