Please can you use alt text to describe your images

Thank you. I like saying there are mistakes, I feel it's liberating to acknowledge my struggles and that I persevered until the end rather than rip back or leave forever unfinished.

A photo of a medium full bobbin of handspun yarn. The bobbin is made of wood, the yarn is 2 ply bright white tencel (wood pulp fibre).

Tencel fibre spun into singles and plied.

A photo of a hand knitted shawl spread out on blocking mats resting on dark green garden chairs. The shawl is circular and knitted in handspun yarn. The yarn is very thin singles. The colours near the bottom of the photo are slightly darker than those in the centre. Pale turquoise, pale lilac, pale grey in the centre, medium blue, pink and purpley grey yarns are on the edge of the shawl.

I finally finished a project. This is my mistake ridden version of AmsterBam by Stephen West. More details in alt text.

Thank you. Just imagine you have blurry vision and need a bit of help by reading some words.

A general description of what the photos show. What colours are showing. Roughly what pattern- stripes, diagonals etc, and what the item is lying on.

Verbalize what is on the screen in online presentations so as to help those who can't see your screen. Some may be blind or have low vision, and unable to read the screen-share contents using assistive technology. Others may be calling in or have bad internet connections.

Oh dear, the downfalls of loving our pups.

Thanks. I'll try that.

How many years?

A ball of handspun singles with two ends coming out of the top and bottom ready to ply. The strand toward the top of the photo shows over twisted singles that are curly and tangled. The ball is blues and purples in real life the colours are turquoise. The ball is sat on a pale turquoise/grey fabric.

Plying from a cake. Not enjoying the process...

When I really need to start a bew project to get me interested in ones I already have on the go....but I don't have the brainpower to try a new pattern, I make something I've made before (a long time ago so it feels new)

E.R. Upstairs Downstairs, Moll Flanders and her general pressence.

When writing alt text, focus on what's truly important. In an image with text about a canceled event, the borders of the image are not nearly as vital as conveying that this event is now canceled. A decorative border can be mentioned, but it's not the most important element; the cancellation is.

How many times do i have to tell Bluesky that I don't want to see certain types of post? Does the "show less of this" option actually work?

What yarn are you using for the jumper?

Ok, but having a general description of the photo would be appreciated

How long is it?

Please can you add alt text to all of your images. I think these are colourwork but can't quite see what the patterns are.

If your organization has Slack, Teams, or any other messaging program, you should have a dedicated accessibility chat. This would be a great way for everyone on your team to learn together by sharing links, posing questions, and reviewing alt text, among other things.

A photo of a handdyed braid of wool. It is plaited and arranged in a spiral. The colours are grey, pale pink, magenta pink and lilac purple. It is sitting on a royal blue background.

A photo looking down on 2 blended batts arranged in a ball. Both are sitting on vertical wooden slats of a bench. The top ball is mainly pinks, the bottom is greys and purples.

Sometimes I buy a cheaper braid of handdyed fibre because I want to make a blend. I bought this from Millhouse Designs on etsy. I split the braid into its separate colours. One blend used the purples and greys, the other the pinks.
