This might be the most intense color-changing stuff Iโve done so far. I never looked into tapestry vs intarsia techniques before this. Learnt something new.
The pattern is here on Etsy. As the designer TheKottonKaboodle mentioned, this is not a beginner pattern and can be a bit overwhelming if you are not used to change color.
[image description: an excerpt of text that says:
“It’s funny,” I told Flewin. “We have an old Nintendo Game Boy floating around the house, and Tetris is the only game we own. My wife will sometimes dig it out to play on airplanes and long car rides. She’s weirdly good at it. She can get 500 or 600 lines, no problem.”
What Flewin said next I will never forget.
“Oh, my!”

TL;DR on the article
The husband was writing an article on classic video game records, was surprised to find out that holding the Tetris record is a bit of a big deal, and mentions how good his wife is at it.
The guy he’s talking to mentions that the record is 327, way lower than his wifes usual scores of 500-600.
They travel to a tournament, and she goes to do her attempt. Just after she beats 327, and is climbing higher, a judge brings up to the husband that the specific version she’s playing actually has a different record of 545.
She overhears that she needs to beat 500-something, and keeps going, setting the record at 841.
Friendly reminder that:
- Young people can have arthritis too.
- There are hundreds of life long conditions and diseases out there that are typically diagnosed between 12 and 30.
- There is a vast difference between being tired and having chronic fatigue.
- Just because you can’t tell that someone is unwell from looking at them, doesn’t mean that you should assume that they are ok.
- Many chronic illnesses are life long, and incurable. Many of them are potentially fatal.
- If you have a disease like Lupus, on good days you still feel like you have a bad flu, 24/7.
- Many of the medications used to treat chronic conditions have side effects that can really affect someone’s self esteem - like extreme weight gain, skin changes and hair loss.
- Most chronic illnesses have very little awareness - its unlikely that you’ve heard of Sjogren’s Syndrome, Scleroderma, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome or Fibromyalgia.
- However these diseases can cause symptoms as varied as joint pain, fatigue, constant nausea, kidney failure, pneumonia, photo sensitivity, full body rashes, paralysis, strokes etc.
- So please remember that invisible illnesses exist too :)
