I drew the king in procreate (low res for pixelation), currently translating it to a crochet tapestry pattern which will then be used for a sweater!

Okay so process. Firstly, sections. Do more than I did. Please. I started with a color remover, did that twice, went in with poison by Arctic fox diluted in regular conditioner (just where it was green), did that twice because my first mix was too diluted, then did one final spot treatment of the color correction with the red and redid the black because it was getting spotty. This took maybe 9 hours total, please be nice to me I'm tired 😭
Okay editing the body text because I'm getting heat.
11 years is a long time and despite the twisted stitches I am really proud of myself for finishing something for the first time.
Pattern is the second image. 4 weight yarn, 5.5 mm circular needles
Thank you for the critique, I'm no longer responding to comments on this post. If you still want to share words of encouragement or helpful critique, I will enjoy reading and learning more.
I'm new to weaving and this is my third attempt overall. I was so proud of my edges for not being too cinched in and...well I skipped over all tutorials and resources on how to properly secure projects. My warp is now absorbed into my weft, I thought a blanket stitch across the top and then gently tugging on the top to pull the bottom loops closer would help........welp, I was wrong, at least in my technique. All advice welcome, including the trash can
I bought Arctic Fox Cosmic Sunshine and some bleach to do my roots because fun roots are great. But...I'm really liking the way the platinum came out. Do I keep the platinum or do I say screw it and do the yellow?
I never know which side to choose when starting a new load. I wanna see what y'all do and why!
So, I'm putting Crayola air dry clay on a canvas board and I let some of it dry last night. I love the way it cracked, but I don't want it to crumble apart. Could I just add liquid glue to it? I have some decent grade stuff, but then I was thinking wood glue or hot glue could be more effective. I'll be painting over the whole thing and maybe adding a color to the cracks to emphasize them.
Note: this is my second time using clay, so I don't really know what I'm doing
Currently making myself a witchy blanket that will have these eyes bordering it. I decided not to use a pattern (for the first time) and was wondering if this already existed? I figured probably, right?
