I am back today for Week #2 of my Tuesday summer blog series called, "Getting Ahead of the Game." Each week I will give you a little project to help you be ready for August.
1. TWO/ 2 pages of Measured STRAIGHT lines horizontally across the page. Use different drawing media...graphite (don’t smear), colored pencil (preferably black), ballpoint and felt pens (keep it at about .05 at the widest nib/tip width) 2. Diagonals across page at different angles. Remember to repeat the same overlapping line at least 8 to 10 times. the objective is to be able to aim at and repeat the muscle-memory and exactness. 3. Rhythmic jagged angles (scan example page 5) where you create one straight line and automatically attach at least one other to start building angular shapes. When you get the hang of it try inclosing a shape to create a ground plane. 4. Arcs & Curves. Draw two vertical borders and then draw left and right curves off of them (example page 6). In different media and remember the objective is to get you to repeat the action of pen/pencil over the same line about 8 times. 5. Compound Curves/ S curves. Its not just "squiggles" (example Page 7),its training your eye and hand and pencil to work together. Again different lengths and curves (challenge yourself. Don’t make it boring but keep it simple). 6. Circles and Ellipses (Example Page 8 & 9) These are easy & hard to get the REALLY correct symmetrically and balance to work fluidly. And that’s the key to become practiced and correct. Chances are your fist pass will be out of whack (mine sure were!) but make some very light passes around the shape (you might even make some ghost passes slightly above the papers surface to get the rhythms of it before committing). This is important so do a couple of pages if you have the guts and work ethic. 7. Last make a page where you show all these various shapes and processes interacting and overlapping. Don’t be sloppy and make sure all of these shapes and lines keep their integrity and line character. Use different media and design the page well. Note I sort of clustered some of the angular shapes into groups then merges them.
Drawing something with one single line, letting the pen just roam over the paper, can be really fun—and liberating!It also often yields beautiful results that look good when framed and hu...

Meet Lorenzo the Llama! (Thank you JadeAurora for his name!) 2-3-19 Update: I added instructions to make Loop-renzo! It’s Lorenzo in winter, with fluffy loops all over. Loop-renzo will require knowledge of the Loop Stitch, Loop decrease and Loop HDC. Also helpful if you have made Lorenzo at least once. I created this pattern specifically to minimize sewing (because I just hate sewing pieces together). The legs, body, and head are one piece. The only sewing required is for the ears and tail. The PDF is 7 pages, with written instruction and some diagrams for clarification. Difficulty: Advanced Beginner to Intermediate Techniques: Basic crochet stitches, increases, decreases, and magic ring, but the construction and some joining techniques are a little more advanced, hence the Advanced Beginner to Intermediate difficulty level. Materials: Yarn: Worsted weight, about 100 yds to 120 yds. Hook: US E/4 (3.5 mm) Tapestry needle for sewing in ends, stitching pieces together, and sewing on eyes. 2 Beads for eyes, or safety eyes Polyester fiberfill for stuffing Size: Approximately 8” tall (not including ears) x 5” long using worsted weight yarn. If you choose to use other weights, the size will vary. This pattern is for personal use, please do not duplicate or distribute in any way, shape, or form. But feel free to sell your finished llamas to share the love. All I ask is to please refer back to me as the pattern’s author. :) Update! I have added a free pattern for the poncho!
