Everyone who’s familiar with late 80s and early 90s video games is familiar with dithering (whether they know the term or not), a gorgeous technique by which a 16 or 256 colour display can emulate richer palettes. Maybe the best examples are Mark Ferrari’s jaw-dropping backgrounds in Loom and the Secret of Monkey Island; go watch his excellent talk:

Since stitches ≅ pixels and yarn comes in limited palettes as well, the same tools can be employed in yarn arts!

A scene from Loom (a 1990 graphic adventure game), demonstrating dithering. The choice of this scene, which shows pieces of woven fabric, is not incidental.

Oh and in case anyone's interested, here's the full 244-color palette that includes not just 100% saturated colors but also 67% and 33%. Again, with dithering it's possible to produce even more saturation levels if needed. https://mastodon.social/@vrtxd/112171905520705768

Recently bought an e-paper display that can only display 4 shades of gray, so I had to figure out how to display pictures with only 4 colors... I always liked halftone aesthetics, and now I'm obsessed with the concept of dithering.

Here's a picture I took of a marmot, dithered to 4 graytones (0, 128, 192, 255) using Floyd-Steinberg error diffusion dithering.

It's one of those techniques that you don't realize are still relevant until you get specific hardware like an e-paper display.

Btw, I posted the original of this image previously: https://infosec.exchange/@hertg/114965477053517638

A black and white picture of a marmot made up of 4 graytones. The dots used for shading and highlighting are clearly visible. The marmot sits in a grassfield and looks straight into the camera, with his front legs hanging down over his belly. Two upper teeth can be seen because the mouth is slightly open.

While updating the preview images for the dithering pixel art brush sets for Clip Studio Paint, Krita, and Aseprite, I set the Aseprite and Krita brush bundles to use an open source license (GNU General Public License V3).

Today I've made a Codeberg repository with the source files for the Krita brush set. If anyone wants to extend the brush set or tweak some previews, you can now.

Example pixel art gradients from dark purple to light blue. Below are dither patterns in black and white including a flower, dot, cross, half tone, and spaced dot pattern. A pixel style pencil draws three dither patterns underneath. The background is a pc98 style city scene at night. The Ko-fi, Clip Studio Paint, Krita, and Aseprite logos are on the right.
