Knit/Crochet Painting Project

So a friend of mine on tumblr made a post about this thing called "Crochet Painting". Basically what it is, if you don't care to click the link, is creating something through crochet and gluing it to canvas.

As soon as I saw this on my dash, I decided I wanted to try it. And since my friend doesn't know which type of glue is better to use (or her post comments on not knowing what glue to use) on acrylic yarn, I'm going to try it with two different types of glue. So this is both a crafting project, and an experiment.

I am using Red Heart "Delft Blue", and some creamish color to make a TARDIS. Now, at this moment in time, that is all I will tell you about what specifically I'll be doing with it. However, in order for this to be a proper experiment, I need to inform you all of what I'm going to be using.

So, at this moment, here is a list of my supplies (or what I know for a fact I'm going to be using):

  • A hot glue gun (mini, with glue sticks)
  • Rubber Cement
  • Red Heart yarn
  • size 7 knitting needles
  • 2 10x10 stretched canvases
When I go to use more things, I'll list them as well. But at the moment, this is a complete list of all my current supplies.

I've also figured that I won't be using the same basic image for each canvas. One will have the TARDIS, and I have yet to know what the other will be. But it'll be exciting, no?
