“Old Blue Jeans” – watercolor
The word faded always brings to mind jeans for me. Especially jeans that are faded in the right spots from wearing them for years, not the acid-wash style jeans.
“I’m gonna put on my old blue jeans/gonna walk out of here and into the streets/ would you put up resistance/ would it make a difference/ would you know the real me/ me in my old blue jeans” – “Old Blue Jeans” Hannah Montana
Colored pencil and pen
Just a little illustration I came up with a couple of weeks ago featuring the Heart Gloves I posted about last week. I’m also considering making the shirt and skirt, once I get the curtains made for my room and the rest of the house, that is.
I’ve been on a glove-making kick lately. Especially after my sock-yarn-buying kick a few months ago.
I’m really proud of these. They are made from self-striping Microfiber Dralon yarn. I have no clue what that is, but it sounds cool.
I came up with a pattern to knit them seamlessly. I also created a heart on the top and palm sides.
It took a few times of reworking the first glove, but I finally got it down. I even made some in blue.
Since the yarn stripes itself, every glove is unique. They still come in pairs, but don’t match stripe for stripe.
What are your obsessions lately?
These are available on my Etsy site, pink here and blue here. You can also see my write-up of it on Craftsy here.
