Knitting tall striped socks on 3D printed knitting machines
Here’s a little scary movie about learning from a bunch of mistakes… nothing like some tall wool socks to put the “cozy” in cozy horror! In this video, I’m experimenting with using both the 3D printed flatbed machine AND the circular sock machine on different parts of the same project, and trying out some tricky techniques.
CHAPTERS
0:00 Intro: spooky season + tall socks
0:22 Why a flatbed when you already have a circular sock machine?
2:39 The plan
4:12 Yarn & swatches
5:02 Setting up the machine
6:22 Casting on with rag, weights, and waste yarn
7:43 Knit, hang hem, undo, knit, hang hem
8:21 Knitting the leg: increasing, decreasing, and stripes
12:13 Seaming the leg
13:54 Transfer to CSM

Coding a DIY teleprompter (with P5js and Glitch) | Part 1

What do we do when we're avoiding writing? That's right: we build a teleprompter app to display that unfinished script we _promise_ we'll get back to just as soon as we're done shaving all these yaks. My goal for this video is to present a beginner-friendly introduction to a practical creative coding project. Whether you're code-curious or a more experienced programmer exploring approaches to a...

Hitch a ride on my train of thought as I attempt to sew my way out of the Pit of Despair... is it a vlog, is it a personal essay, is it a whisper into the void? Why label it; it's a thing I made. And I already feel more hopeful.

Join me as I knit a sock on my build of the 3D-printed circular sock machine (CSM) by difl/JeepingJohnny: www.thingiverse.com/thing:5276234 When building the machine I incorporated several tips, remixes, and accessories by Gerri Baggett (gebsews), including the yarn mast (I broke part of mine so it's looking a little worse for wear but still very effective): www.thingiverse.com/thing:4708039 Se...

Come for the citations, stay for the Luddism! In Part Two of this series, I accidentally* become a video-essayist and we go on a deep dive into the research that informed my design of a 3D-printed knitting machine. Since this is (at least in part) an overview of the types of knitting machines and related projects that have come before mine, I do mention a few products/businesses, but this video...

I made a knitting machine on my 3D printer and it kniiiiiiiits! This was a sprawling, year-long quest... there's too much to talk about in one video, so I'm making it into a series. This is PART ONE: a short introduction to the project, laying out the motivation, aims, objectives, and expectations. In future installments I'll cover: the history and research; the design, testing, and build proce...

"Looking Glass" is an experiment in aleatoric music, using simulated particle swarm behaviour to explore Everett's "many-worlds" interpretation of randomness: the notion that each time a quantum event has multiple possible outcomes, the universe branches such that every outcome occurs in parallel; according to this interpretation, what we perceive as randomness is actually a lack of insight or ...

The country is represented by a simple flat map, and each region's daily reported data is represented by a 3D bar projected into the "sky" above the (approximate) location of the region's most populous or well-known city.
