Everyone who’s familiar with late 80s and early 90s video games is familiar with dithering (whether they know the term or not), a gorgeous technique by which a 16 or 256 colour display can emulate richer palettes. Maybe the best examples are Mark Ferrari’s jaw-dropping backgrounds in Loom and the Secret of Monkey Island; go watch his excellent talk:

Since stitches ≅ pixels and yarn comes in limited palettes as well, the same tools can be employed in yarn arts!

Just finished playing through LucasArts Loom, the original EGA version with my kid. Such a beautiful game! Mark Ferrari, Steve Purcell & Gary Winnick's art is just breathtaking! The first time we went into the Glass Makers City 🤯

Happy December! 🌲❄️

"Arrived well after dark last night—at end of my reserves. Climb up mountainside much more arduous than anticipated. For now, given run of castle library and told to spend day resting and recovering."

Happy November! 🌞🌲 #pixelart

"Have just discovered beautiful lake. Will camp briefly and adjust to rising elevation’s impact on breathing and stamina. Lake providing abundant fish and aquatic vegetables to smoke and store in preparation for ascent beyond tree line."

Happy October! 🎃👻

"Could not get to sleep at all, so sat up watching ruins, and was ‘rewarded’ at last with clear sight of unnatural and deeply unsettling display — as if some slow, indecipherable calamity were reenacted again and again before me."
