Thank you Kamilla! Did you spot the shy ones?

A middle-grade girl in a bright yellow-orange spacesuit floats in space, reaching out to greet one of several octopus-like aliens that float in space with her. Nearby is her small spaceship, and gas-giant hangs in the distance. The text on the card reads "Michael Dashow, illustrator, mdashow-kidlitart.carrd.co, repped by Vicky Weber at CMA."

It's April #kidlitartpostcard day!

Spring has sprung and the baby birds need to be taught where to get the best crusts and biscuit crumbs.

Emitá, a young girl with dark curly hair and blue eyes is climbing a chair and looking back. The setting is inspired by Ancient Greece. In front of the girl is a window arch with only a sheer purple curtain to block the elements and beyond is a full moon and stray lit sky. There is a mosaic of asphodel flowers and a marble stand holding a golden book.

Happy #KidLitArtPostcard Day!

I’m Mili an author/illustrator seeking representation.

This is Emitá from my current WIP. You can see the first part of the #GN as a webtoon here:

Stranded colour work knitting on small dpns. The start of a glove in pink and blue

The pattern is starting to emerge on my gloves. I think it's going to be so pretty!

It's slow going though because I'm not a fan of dpns. Keep poking myself and losing the 5th one.

Pour over coffee with hand ground fermented beans. Just whatever non-dairy milk is in the fridge. I'm too lazy to do anything special with it.

There were so many lovely art communities and group events back then. I didn't realise (or maybe I forgot) you had shingles while we were doing the alphabet. Glad that's far behind you now - it can be very rough!

I'm living this today too. Sleep is literally a human right... Except if you have a small child 🥱

Yes! This would be mine too

Just found this that I had forgotten about!

The words are by the brilliant @colinwest.bsky.social and, several years ago, I joined lots of people illustrating a whole alphabet of rhyming animals from Colin.

WIP knitted gloves on a 9 inch circular needle

I looked up videos of undoing a bind off and decided to go for it! So far so good

Thanks, that's a good idea to try and save these!

Unless there's a way to undo the bind-off and make it tighter?

The last step of the pattern is to pick up stitches all around that blue thread then take it out & knit the thumb part. It's probably easy, but not something I've ever done before!

Thank you! I will definitely do that for the next pair.

It is! Thank you

A two colour stranded colour work knitted gloves, on a hand.

An unfinished two colour knitted gloves, on a hand. There is no thumb hole yet

One glove finished & it seems to fit well, but I hate how the top edge flares out. I'm hoping it shrinks in when I wash them... If not... Maybe I can felt it a bit or something..?

No thumb hole yet. I've no clue what I'm doing with that so leaving it til both gloves are ready.

#knitsky #knitting

This is the dream ✨

What happens in a knitting club mystery book? Do they somehow use knitting to solve crimes?

So many photos

Oh no! I picked these as a practice before doing the gloves I really want because I thought they looked easier being only 2 colours for my first project 😅

Maybe it's for the best I have no clue and just jumped in 😄
I'm definitely more than halfway now.

Haha, yes! I think there are probably a lot of knitting terms that would work well 😄

Photo of two gloves partially knit on very small circular needles. They are colour work using white and fawn, with vertical stripe palms and patterned backs.

Making good progress on my first colour work project. They will be fingerless gloves.

Lots new to me here!
Latvian braids, 100% Shetland wool (super sticky!), double thumb gussets.
