Welcome to Gaia! ::

TREE SWEATER
I can't believe I hadn't posted this earlier, but here's something y'all would probably enjoy...

It's one of my favourite songs, Ramalama Bang Bang, by Roisin Murphy. You may have seen the routine danced to it on So You Think You Can Dance?. It's a very clanky-clockyworky song to begin with, but the theme of the dance was Victorian zombies to boot.

Here's a link. whee

They cut down the song, but it's still amazing...


omg that's AWESOME


I am in love with caps today eek


but seriously... and those OUTFITS!!!
Absolutely lovely video.

Now, have any of you seen this fellow's watches? I think I found the link on one of the exterior forums, but I can't recall when.

EDIT: Does anyone have any really fantastic and detailed photos, illustrations, or diagrams of inner clockwork/clock escapements? I need it for a sculpture reference.

I need a judgement in fashion, so I figured there was nowhere better to turn than to you ladies and gents. I've got the base of a costume here:

And I want to know what to add. I've got some charcoal-grey knitted handwarmers (home made), brilliant green knitted spats (home made), and a belt long enough to cross the shoulder. But I need accessories, and lots of them.

Very dashing! But I definitely agree with you about the accessories -- this outfit screams Victoriana but you need some scruffy metal and leather to steam it up!

PS, post your armwarmers and spats pictures for a fellow knitter? whee

My stuff. cool

I've been digging through my unearthly mounds of junk, looking for something to convert into a punkish doodad, but nothing seems to be forthcoming. I might have to head to the local hardware store.

Wow.
I think this is the first time I've ever enjoyed anything from So You Think You Can Dance?.
I love music that incorporate machinery in creative ways.

Love the spats. I've made a pair of those too, but I like them better in the green! And it's funny, I think I've made a pair of gloves exactly like those -- same yarn and all, but crocheted. xd

Also, THAT SCARF IS AMAZING. A. MAZ. ING.

Have you tried it before? I've heard a lot of people say they think it's easier than knitting, and you're a good knitter, so I'd bet you'd have an easy time with it.

I did try, very hard, but everything I did came out knotted and shapeless. It was depressing, so I stick with knitting now.

They have some other styles too. 3nodding

EDIT: ...assuming "short pants" meant "shorts," anyway, but they also have some capris.
