I use Cartridge Save ones in my 1210W. Ink cartridges are fine but it's not so keen on the toner.

Glossy evergreen Sarcococca bush with lanceolate leaves with tiny white strand-like flowers.

My front door Sarcococca, or Sweet Box, is really beginning to flourish after a couple of years.
Good for very shady spots, the teeny white flowers are highly fragrant and it has dark glossy berries too. Plus it's slug proof!

Good lighting, a mid tone, non fluffy yarn and in-focus

What if I just REALLY REALLY gave this a go and tried to find a whole bunch of small business owners in fiber and needle crafts and let them know about the community we’ve been building to support each other?

Practising my short rows this week so I can give my sweaters a front and back.
Found lots of really bad videos on you tube, but this one really helped.

Treated myself to a Jamieson's shade card, it's just delicious! Now I can hopefully get my colour choices right first time 🀞
