Self portrait challenge is a self portrait community website – an online community of people participating in a continuous artistic self-expressive art project.
Taking self portraits challenges peoples personal boundaries, it frees up inhibitions and this site creates a venue for people who would not normally be able to speak freely about their selves.
The July challenge SKILL might interest whipup readers:
What are you good at: show us in pictures. Do you use your hands to work – do you have a workshop or a studio or office – what tools do you use? What are your talents – are you good at performing? are you an excellent liar or jokester? do you have a secret skill – can you juggle or take off your underwear without removing your clothes? are you good at sports, dancing or walking a tight rope? Are you a good parent, a good listener, skilled at washing the dishes? Do your skills lie in the more esoteric – are you good at magic, excellent at conversation, skilled at love? Or do your talents lie in a more practical direction – are you a fantastic cook a wonderful hostel – a domestic goddess? Do you have a green thumb, can you paint like a demon or crochet like your grandmother? Do you have a talent for numbers or are you really efficient at plaiting hair? tell all…

love this image from Kelp! knits
of her sock progress
yarnstorm – inky socks
two from yarned – These Silk Garden Lite socks were a whip to knit. I followed loosely the directions from IK “Better Socks from Toe Up” article and I think that I made a stable relationship to eastern cast on involving no grafting, picking up stitches or fuss of any kind. … a tangy pair of socks from zesty handpainted Mokkasukka yarn.
tiennie knits This pattern is a melding of Nancy Bush’s Gentleman’s Half Hose Socks from Knitting Vintage Socks and Wendy Knits Toe Up Socks with Gusset Heels.
kittys creations I knit these with Brown Sheep Lamb’s Pride Worsted in a pale heather gray on size 10 1/2 needles, using the magic loop method. They knit up very fast, the felting turned out fabulous.
