Did you already hear about the great video where they tried to visualize the warmth of gas with knitting?
Wonderful!
And I like the making of as well ;-)
While you’re at it, perhaps it’s time to see the knitted video again?! ;-)

I found it really fun painting flowers with the Flower Maker :))
With this one I’ve been particularly successful.

Something different this time: make 3D photos without paying too much.
That’s fine, isn’t it? ;-)

Doesn’t this ‘A’ look great?
And where the ‘A’ comes from, you can find muuuch more :)
I don’t know yet what I will do with it apart from very personal Birthday cards, but I’m sure that I’ll come up with some idea ;-))

The day before yesterday I told you that I was looking for online pattern generators and then I found also the toga pattern generator.
What an idea! ;-))
In any case I thought that Carnival (Fasching) is really near now and possibly the newspaper dress doesn’t suit you, then such a toga could be an alternative?! ;-))

I’m busy programming another pattern generator, something similar to the maze pattern generator and the pattern generator (cellular automaton) and therefore I looked for online pattern generators.
So I found the online Amigurumi pattern generator.
Incredible!
I’m really not one for Amigurumis, but I find the generator amazing! ;-))

Today is Christmas Eve where there’s not a lot of time for crafting, therefore I wanted to present something that I found most hilarious: the literal music video versions.
There they change the lyrics to describe what’s happening in the video.
I had a lot of fun with :)) although I’ve never been interested in music videos.
My personal highlight is Meat Loaf: Literal Video Version (Anything For Love) – so wonderfully crazy ;-)))
(To avoid misunderstandings: I really like Meat Loaf and Anything For Love!
And this video, too ;-)))
By the way I found the video via an article in Spiegel where they present more of these videos.

Doesn’t this WIP (work in progress) jumper look great?
Sometimes it’s really a handicap being so impatient ;-))

When I saw the knitted video for the first time, I was sitting there with my jaw dropped.
That didn’t look very beautiful (me, not the video! ;-)).
Anyhow: I’m toootally amazed about.
And I won’t never, ever try to knit such a thing by myself ;-))
(I know, I know, it is machine knitted.
Even so ;-))

Sometimes it would be great, if you could enter your own hand writing by keyboard, e.g. when creating greeting cards.
You have the chance now: you print a form, enter the appropriate letters, scan the sheet and upload it at fontcapture.
Then you should get back your handwriting as font.
I didn’t let make it yet because my handwriting is so botched at the moment that I don’t want to get it ;-))
As a matter of principle you should be able to ‘put a lot on the keyboard’, even little sketches.
I really have to try it on occasion!
