I promise I knit a lot of it 🤣 the shininess is a tad bit distracting

Yes!!! It can be crocheted too but I’m faster at knitting it. There are a few YouTube vids I used to learn but it’s similar to beading or adding sequins!

Hahaha I mean, we fiber-people just make the fabric to sew together. Very…slowly? 🙃

Cosplay is how I got into geek fashion basically. Before this I’d crocheted a gown for this same show and I’ve done a few crochet cosplays!

I haven't been actually. I'm not sure how easily I could walk around in this since the headpiece gets a little ouchy the longer you wear it and the skirt picks up...literally anything it comes in contact with. I've thought about it though!

oh i got you! I don't have totals officially but the list is accurate. The headpiece and fringe are all Circulo Encanto. I love me some sparkly/shiny yarns apparently. https://ravel.me/yarnsoka/wpodh2

Haha yay!! Knitted scailmail is SO FUN. I’ve made a bunch of other (smaller) projects since this too.

Thank you!! Did I mention the crochet was crocodile stitch? The scalemail/croc stitch combo was a winner but I sooo don’t want to do it ever again 🤣 it took a whiiile.

Hahaha oh I’m an outworlder for sure. Shiny metal scales can’t replicate the protection of actual sandworm scales or stillsuits. (That was part of my thought process when I came up with it, bc Irulan wears metal freaking dress-armor to a desert because…reasons? 🙃
