Frida Kahlo

I love Frida Kahlo, so I'm posting her art here...


{image description: Frida is standing against a green wall with a light pink flower pattern. She is wearing a hot pink shawl, black flowered dress, purple dangling earrings, and a pink headband of roses in her hair, which is done in an updo. Her makeup is very heavy, giving her extremely pale skin and bright pink cheeks.}


{image description: Frida featured from the shoulders up, wearing a white shirt, with a necklace of thorns and bird pendant around her neck, a small money and black cat looking over her shoulder, and leaves in the background}



{image description: double self-portrait. On the left is Frida wearing a long white dress dotted with blood or flowers, it's hard to tell. She's holding hands with the Frida on the right, who is wearing a blue and gold shirt and long green and white skirt. Both women's hearts have been torn from their chests}

Knitting!

I learned how to knit at age fourteen and kind of dropped it after a few months, but recently I've gotten back into it and am knitting a blanket. It's a bunch different colored squares, sewn together (well, it will be. I only have one square finished so far and I'm working on another), and the color scheme seems to be greens and blues, but I'll probably add in some reds and golds. The first square is two different yarns, a thick cream-colored one, I think wool, combined with a thinner blue-green. The square I'm working on now is a thick medium green yarn.

After a few more squares, I'm hoping to make a hat, scarf, and a few potholders. And after THAT, I might knit a knitting bag - in the colors of the rainbow, of course. I never really learned anything more complicated than a purse, but thanks to Google that might change :)
