Twisted Sisters

Can you believe it? I still don't know how to actually knit! I was interested in pushing myself to make more humanoid characters, I felt these two conveyed a certain kind of anguish and ennui. Twisted and self soothing, even though they are sisters and have each other to lean on. This, along with the talismans, are the direction I'd like to keep taking my work in.

Wumbell

She's just got some complicated emotions to process right now

It took me a long time to make anything remotely close to Tongue Tied because I was nervous they wouldn't be well received. I was kind of right, they haven't gone off to their forever homes just yet but I'm hopeful someone will be able to hold the girls and appreciate them the way I do. These two are fairly large, about 12 - 15" tall and quite huggable. This may come as a surprise given... well the entire look of this website, but I really love the themes and monsters of Silent Hill 2 and the SCP Containment Breach series. I feel like if I were in the place of James Sunderland - being chased by brutal physical metaphors of my worst traits and transgressions - Mumbell and Wumbell would be the ones chasing me.

If you ask if she's ok she's going to cry
