The recipe is the style, not the picture. Put your own subject in and the prompt updates.
A blocky character rendered entirely as knitted stitches: a figure in a patterned jacket and cap where every pixel is a visible V shaped wool loop, colour changes stepping in hard squares as on a knitting chart. Bright blue, red and teal wool on a flat blue ground, fibres slightly fuzzing the edges, the whole surface reading as textile. Pixel art and knitwear at the same time.

Tips
- 1Every pixel is a stitch. Say V shaped loops or you get a pixel filter.
- 2Hard stepped colour changes, as a knitting chart forces.
- 3A little fuzz at the edges is what makes it wool rather than blocks.
