Throwback post to the Steotchalone 2020 (or however you spell it). I don’t normally take part in any time-intensive or team events because frankly I wouldn’t be able to keep up, but during the lockdown they ran a version designed for solo participation and I signed up on a total whim.
Our instructions were to basically pick a palette of six shades with suitable contrast, then await the pattern!
Thoroughly enjoyed this stitch. It was amazing seeing it come together with so few colours involved, and the texture of the hair and beard is really cool.
You can tell I’m proud of it because I basically never FFO anything otherwise. I ironed this and everything! 😄
That’s very cool! Did you get sick of the same shades all the time? I’ve got a project that’s 11 shades of grey and I keep putting it down because it gets a bit dreary.
Honestly no, they released it in multiple parts (think it was weekly) and for the first couple it didn’t even look like a person never mind anyone recognisable, so it was kind of fascinating seeing it all come together.
Each section was small enough that it didn’t get old, plus there was the fun game of showing my partner and making him guess what it was going to be 😄
