<p>And I have used the principles of composition, of values, of line, and chromas, and I have painted pixels in his image. Blessed be the FSM for giving us the rules of composition!</p>
<p>And I arranged the masses of light and dark, and behold, they pleased His noodly Eye. Blessed be the FSM for creating contrasts in value!</p>
<p>And I cooked spaghetti for visual reference, and rendered His holy form, guided by His Noodly Appendage. And I have consumed the spaghetti, and rejuvenated by this holy communion, I placed the highlights upon his noodles. Blessed be the FSM for creating light and shadow, so that we could see our pasta!</p>
<p>And I placed colours and pirate regalia upon the army of His deciples, and behold, I spent many a day putting details in their midst. Praised be the FSM for showing us the way, for to err is human, but to Arr is Pirate.</p>
<p>R&#8217;amen brothers and sisters, may the image of His Noodliness please thy eye.</p>

<p>As a deeply religious fellow Pastafarian, I feel as a divine duty to report the following wonderful miracle to you.</p>
<p>Today, exactly at 9:45AM, our Lord, the One and Almighty Flying Spaghetti Monster, appeared and floated above my workdesk for several seconds. After He touched me with His Noodly Appendage, he disappeared, but fortunately not fast enough for leaving no evidence after Him. I managed to grab my camera and take this beautiful photo just before he faded away into the heavenly skies!<br />
Please let me share this miraculous sight with the rest of the world, for the sake of spreading the divvy idea of our Great Saviour!</p>
<p>Yours sincerely,<br />

<p>P.S.: by the way, the FSM doll was made (planked) from wool by my girlfriend and it&#8217;s hanging on a fishing string &#8211; probably scaring out the shit from anyone who&#8217;s not aware of it&#8217;s existence before entering the room :)</p></blockquote>

<blockquote><p>The kate is done and ready for the <strong>Sock Summit fiber festival in Portland, Oregon next Thurs-Sun</strong>.  </p>
<p>Everyone who&#8217;s seen it loves it!  I drew my own artwork and if I make another, there are changes I&#8217;d make, but on the whole I think it came out well.  Feel free to post, and if anyone asks, <strong>my company&#8217;s booth will be #216 at Sock Summit (Portland Convention Center)</strong>.  </p>
<p>Oh, and for those folks who don&#8217;t know, a Lazy Kate is a tool hand-spinners (spindles and/or spinning wheels) use to ply yarn. You spin singles on several bobbins (one is shown below) and then when you ply, you use the elastic cord to tension the bobbins so they all move at the same rate, and you move the spinning wheel in the opposite direction and keep the yarn twisting uniformly.  If you look at store-bought yarn you can see it consists of several strands, and a kate helps you get the twists even as you ply.</p>

<p>My humble family were touched by his noodly appendage three years ago.  We wanted to raise our children with a religions so that they would have a basis for a moral code in their futures.  We considered Orthodox Greek (you know &#8211; Zeus, Hermes, Dionysus,and the whole gang) but we found the Pastafarian way of life to be a better fit.  We just don&#8217;t have the funds or the grasslands necessary to offer the Gods of Mount Olympia the required burnt offerings of cattle.</p>

<p>I found *the* original drawing.  It was in a box in my car, where I keep all my most important things.  The Smithsonian people should put this up somewhere, am I right?  How do we make that happen, internet? </p>
<p>*Update*  They don&#8217;t want it. Here&#8217;s what they said:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>The Smithsonian Institution is always happy to consider unrestricted donations of art for its collections.  However, the Institution accepts only those works of art that truly fill a gap in or complement the collections and then only after careful consideration by museum curators, administrators and directors.  The Institution adds to its collections only a tiny percentage of what is offered and typically does not accept unsolicited artwork.</p>
<p> We suggest that you try to find someplace other than the Smithsonian to showcase your drawing and/or promote the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster message.
</p></blockquote>

Touched by his Noodly Appendage, I was inspired and made a couple of designs.  One is on fabric canvas and the rest are on plastic canvas to be used as drink coasters.
