Kagi Small Web
blog.kagi.comKagi Small Web offers a fresh approach by promoting recently published content from the “small web.” We gather new content, published within the last week, from a handpicked list of blogs and surface it in multiple ways…
Random simulations

The internet is unusable now
newstatesman.comPop-ups, farmed content and sponsored posts have ruined a web that once told us whatever we needed to know.

css-pattern.comFancy backgrounds with CSS gradients

trains.jo-m.ch

More information about this project can be found here.
Knit Grotesk
knitgrotesk.com
Knit grotesk is the first type family made especially for hand knitting
