TanjaAbout three years ago I took on the adventure "Elf Coat". It was my first Tunisian Crochet Project and what a learning it has been. The pattern and the resources available from the designer are wonderful and I learned so much from her! The following observations are related to my specific project alone. <br> <br> - Don't use acrylic yarn for a garment. The static when peeling this coat off is unreal. <br> - Don't forget gravity: I'm plus size = more yarn = heavier garment = the whole thing stretches when worn. I wanted it to be at my knees, it grew down to my shins. <br> - Did I mention the static? Seriously, I think that surprised me the most. <br> - Tunisian Crochet is not my cup of tea. But I'm happy I tried it out. <br> - Making a garment as a plus size person sucks, unless the garment was specifically designed for plus size. <br> <br> Pattern: Elf Coat by Regina Weiss from Morale Fiber<br> Yarn: Hobbii Carnival in color Basel<br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/crochet?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#crochet</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/crochetart?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#crochetart</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/crochetartist?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#crochetartist</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/häkeln?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#häkeln</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/handmade?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#handmade</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/crochetgarment?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#crochetgarment</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/plussize?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#plussize</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/yarn?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#yarn</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/fiber?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fiber</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/fiberarts?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fiberarts</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/fiberartist?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fiberartist</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/tunisiancrochet?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tunisiancrochet</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/elfcoat?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#elfcoat</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/neverstoplearning?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#neverstoplearning</a>

Charles<p>I finally did it! It took just over 6 months, but I completed the Google Cybersecurity Certification. And just in time for Cybersecurity Awareness Month. It was a lot of work, and some of it was tough (I’m looking at you, Python). The material was wide from cybersecurity concepts and frameworks to SQL and Python. It’s a good starting point for those who are interested in field and want to get some good hands-on practice. It was also used as a study tool to prepare for the CompTIA Security+, which will be next on the to-do list. </p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/neverstoplearning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>neverstoplearning</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/google" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>google</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/googlecybersecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>googlecybersecurity</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/cybersecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cybersecurity</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/infosec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>infosec</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/IT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IT</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/SecurityPlus" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SecurityPlus</span></a></p>
