bismuth209In the interest of having an easy time with posting, i've made a little format to help me know what to post and such. Feel free to use this format or a modified form! feel free to ask for clarification on any of the categories! feel free to comment anything at all!!
fannish thought: i think a nice fic could be made using the changing of seasons as a motif or symbol. Something about change, about decay necessary for growth.
what i'm creating: Some fingerless gloves! Made the first one in about a day, and of course am more than a day into the second one and maybe an 8th of the way through. That's how it goes
i accomplished this! I received my grades from my most recent exam week this week, an 8.2 and a 7. The 8.2 for a subject called maatschappijwetenschappen , which i think is sort of a social sciences sort of thing in english. The grades are 1-10, and 5.5 is passing, 6 is alright, 7 is pretty good, 8 is definitely good, 9 is woah (adding because cultural contexts with regards to grades is sometimes very diffrent. i've spoken to americans who are unhappy with a 70% score, that's basically failing to them at their school, which is very different here).
My 7 was for Dutch, and i'm actually happier with it than i am with my 8.2, because it was spelling and grammar , i have dyslexia and i was very worried i would not get the 70% correct needed for a passing grade. I got way more!!
something i want: I want to make my dnd folder all nice. I got some new stuff for it recently and i really want to make it all nice and updated and good. But that involves wrestling the printer among other things, and that is... difficult.
and now, the weather: autumn's here, and what was green is gold and withered / autumn's here, the summer's at an end / i thought somehow it didn't last forever / i thought i held forever in my hand
the actual weather: rainy!

Date: 2023-11-11 10:29 am (UTC)i'm using a crochet pattern indeed, it's called matteo fingerless gloves, on ravelry, and they're super easy.
the reason why they're super easy can be used for knitting too. they're just 2 seamed rectangles, with space left for the thumb. no individual fingers, no dpns needed for the thumb even. just knit a rectangle flat and seam it and then do it again for your other hand. easy peasy
