I couldn't resist the idiotic elven ears I once bought xD

Nor could I resist the hat. Yes, it is an outdoor Columbia hat, very not elvish. I put it on for fun.

The pattern is Tiliana by Kaleo Handmade (Martika Grabowska), it's on Ravelry.

I used 1650m of 100% cotton yarn. The final result is 85/190cm without blocking. I have not washed it yet, the shawl keeps the shape even without washing and blocking.

I watched the new Spiderman movie. I didn't die of cringe like I did on the last Thor movie, which is an improvement, but it was also a movie I will most likely never watch again. It was lengthy at times and the change going on the main character did not hit me on emotional level, it was more like me seeing the mechanisms and the intentions of the script writers. I really enjoyed the previous Spiderman movie. This one? I'm glad the cinema tickets we bought were on some discount.

On plus side, it was nice to see Zendaya actually act and perform more than her usual scowl. I don't mind teh actress, I'm not exactly fond of her MJ and that did not change, I still don't give a shit, but it was positive to see her acting range being a bit wider.

I had to finish the sleeves again, because the first time it looked absolutely awful:

Now it's good:

I will think about possibly correcting the front of the outer skirt, but I don't have the time nor the energy for it now.

Buuuut. You know what's better than pocketses in a dress or a skirt? TWO sets of pocketses!

I'm aaaaaalmost there with Idril dress. And buahaha, I found some shitty China ears I forgot I bought 😂

The cloak is made of dark blue wool. I only had 2,6m, so it's a bit shorter at the front, but I still managed to cut half-circle cloak and make the hood from the scraps. I used some linen/viscose fabric for the lining in the hood. There will be either a brooch or a decorative clasp, but in case it's the latter,I want my brother to sew it on at his preferable height, since he's taller than me and probably has wider shoulders despite still looking like a dangly teenager.
