Wouldn't that be floppy and hard to keep up? Okay, I know it wouldn't be on our dolls here.

Little bit of starch will make fabrics less slouchy.

Doesn't work on knitted sweaters, though.

You'd need something else as a support underneath, of course.

Den · Posted 12-25-2015, 06:29 PM

depends on the gauge and the weight of the yarn, really.

Tam I am · Posted 12-25-2015, 08:21 PM

I sit corrected.

With a tight gauge, and a thick enough yarn, you can wind up with a stiff fabric that can practically stand on its own. Thinner yarns, like the kind used for socks or "laceweight" tend to not make for very good yarns to use if you're wanting something really sturdy. Sport weight on up to Super Bulky weight, knit on smaller needles than the recommended on the ball band results in a sturdy fabric.

Yeah, and then you can felt it.

Only if it has enough wool in the mix to felt. Some natural fibers don't felt, and some felt beautifully. Acrylics don't felt, sadly.

Tam I am · Posted 12-27-2015, 04:52 PM

Okay. Sometimes you can felt it.

Den · Posted 12-27-2015, 05:53 PM

Lol only sometimes. The sad thing is that wool yarn is so dang expensive...

As a star-eating eldritch horror from beyond the gate, I have an unsettling lack of tentacles. Tentacles would be very nice. Writhing, wandering, wriggling tentacles. :3

I also here there's an old event item that if I remove my base body layer might make me look like a dark cloud of mist. Mystical Aura, apparently. However, there's nothing that's supposed to make me look that way. That would also be nice. In dark colors.

elaberate? i don't understand XD

I am so down to make tentacles.

Ammutseba · Posted 12-28-2015, 06:21 PM

Well, one of my wishes has already been granted. I'm curious about what the mystic skin might look like on me, but I'm not greedy.

But, as you can see, I am depressingly short on tentacles, with only one thing that could really pass for one. So, if that's something you're down to make, then I am so down to see it happen! :D
