Description
This is a warm-up I did for a larger project I'm working on.Made from one argyle knee-high and a pair of striped knee-highs. Buttons are from the early 70s and are from a company called "Rainbow Oriental." They are black colored and contain Mother-Of-Pearl embedded in Lucite. Size 36 and came in a pack of three. I used thread I found around in random boxes. Small pearly beads were used in place of knots at the end of hand swen areas because the socks material called for large knots and I felt lazy xD
Custom pattern... in fact no "pattern" at all. I just made it as I went along.
Intended as a gift for someone.
Hope you guys like it!
<3 Ducki

Someone told me that DA user use Etsy. But I'm thinking of using Ebay because I only want to charge about $5 for them. They're not THAT big. Hopefully $8 total with shipping?

My mom doesn't let me buy stuff online with credit cards and stuff, tho.

(long story short at bottom)
"Vampires in the Sims 3 look relatively normal. You can pick them out in a crowd usually by their bright eyes. A regular Sim, unless they are Brave, will get the Hunted moodlet whenever a vampire is around.
Once a Sim has met a vampire, they will show up in their relationships with a red box around their picture. Your Sim can "Ask to Turn" the vampire, in which they will hold out their arm and the vampire will bite them, if they have a high or romantic relationship with the Vampire they will bite them on the neck instead. After the bite they will have a moodlet describing a mosquito or spider bite. If there are too many other Sims around, or if your Sim doesn't have a high enough relationship level with the vampire, they may be rejected from receiving "the gift.""
LONG STORY SHORT:
Vampires hang out near the Goth Gazebo area in the city town ONLY.
If youre friends or romantic with one, you can select "ask to turn" when speaking to them.
To raise friend levels, hold "ctrl, shift, and c" and the screen will pause. A blue bar will appear at the top of the screen. You type in codes there. Type "testingcheatsenabled true" the game can then resume.(use "motherlode" for 50,000 MY FAVORITE <3) then go to your friends/relationships page. You can drag the green bar over to the highest level, instantly making you a best friend. The new vampiric best friend can then bite you and if you stay the same level of friendship, you'll turn into a vampire in about 2 days.

If your iPod came with wallpapers, try removing them.. they put it HD photos that are seriously like .3 MB. I dunno what kind you have, but the iTouches have those huge wallpapers.
I LUFF THAT GAME. I recoded it so that I could make my males pregnant. Recoded wrong.. their heads got transplanted onto a female body and they had no legs... Baby had pitch black arms and legs... and when he grew up he had these pitch black high heels on for feet... couldn't change his shoes! FREAK FREAK!
Probably shouldn't have tried that, but I left a family alone for a while... and I came back to everyone dead except for one boy who married a guy. They were so cute together I wanted them to have a kid that looked like them... simple enough in the Sim world... or so I thought. xD

I deleted half of the pictures and crap I had stored and removed a few apps too. xD
Seriously? They have HD vids that are .3MB?? O:
lol, that's hilarious! I love using cheat codes!
It makes me lol when everyone dies, even tho every time I get someone to save them, it works. o3o

LKDVLKSNVDS darn Apple, wasting space on my iPod... I'm a bit sad they won't let you delete some of the apps that come included... They take up quite a bit of space, but I never use them! Like the email one...
LOL. I love the ghosts... until they eat all the food >_>
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ugh, I know! It makes me so mad! Mine doesnt have a mic, but it still has to have the voice recording app. D:< They need to fix that, for sure!
lol, yeah! It makes me lol when the living sims get all freaked out by the ghosts! xD
