I'm crocheting myself a beret with some Christmas themed wool yarn I bought with some of my Christmas money. I'm following @jacintheattic.bsky.social's pattern from her YouTube channel!

Two greige wool cable knit socks lying on a wooden table

Finished my Mysa Socks (by David Van de Kamp) this morning. I prefer a tight sock, and intend to wear these around the house like slippers, so I did intentionally felt them just a bit.

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

No. Dropped everything to knit some slipper socks. It's 4° f.

I'm working on a gift knit and therefore can't post anything about it, BUT it's almost done and then I'm starting my first colorwork sweater 👀

IT WAS GOOD

Heated Ravelry, is this anything?

Crafting for Sinners is finally on my Libby shelf 👀

The recycling facility is bustling today

Weeeeell I read a little over half of my reading goal for the year. About half of what I read last year. What's that about? I just updated my Libby want to read list and now I'm feeling motivated.

I did the thing I was trying to do 🥳 whatever that was

Or did I dress it with warp, this terminology is so foreign to me

It's 1am but I successfully rewarped a (very small) loom 🙌

Wrong!

I think we're safe 🙌

Pleeeease don't let me hit 10k today I'm having a (planned, fully anticipated) rough day (do not worry) and I want to be able to enjoy the milestone lol

This cannot keep happening but I know they're working on a new album so it will actually keep happening.

A screenshot of my YouTube music yearly recap, showing I'm in the top 0.2% of death grips listeners.

Music streaming recaps are a humiliation ritual.

It's 1:35am but I just finished all the necessary preparations to record the next episode of goth knitting. It's happening. Soon.

Did I purchase a toy loom for children? Yes! BUT first, I found an experienced weaver on YouTube who bought it and was able to make a couple of small adjustments to make it work well. I think that's fine. I don't have the room for anything serious.

I've been thinking about weaving and then I got a comment about weaving and I think that's a sign.

If you were wondering.

Beantok got really weird really quick so I'm back on my solo bean journey.

It has happened multiple times in the exact same way. I always think I can make the ENTIRE eyebrow thinner from the bottom, but the front (inside?) of each is so sparse at the top it leaves me with really really far apart tiny brows.

It has officially been over one year since my last incident of accidentally shaving off way too much of my eyebrow

(don't take this too seriously, y'all know I wear knits year-round and I knit a lot of tank tops)

The knitwear season has officially hit kc 🥳

This is all to say I do not have a special Halloween video planned, but I will have a Halloweek crafting vlog out in 1-2 weeks.

Is it a bad time to admit I don't make a huge deal of Halloween and I never have a costume because I kind of live Halloween year-round? I do, however, attempt to do as many seasonal activities as possible.
