Please call your representatives in the House and the Senate. Tell them to *represent* your values, and tell them what values to represent. Pick one a day; call every day.

Happy Imbolc, St Brigid’s Day, and Groundhog Day.

Light a candle, meditate on a fire (or flame), and embrace the quiet reflection as we begin to prepare for spring. Now is the time for hope and planning.

Take time now for reflection, renewal, and planning. Action comes next, not now. 3/3

Lunar New Year started January 29 - we welcomed the year of the Wood Snake, a time of deep cultural significance. I feel we will not let that be taken from us. Whether it be Black History Month, or Women’s History Month, or Juneteenth, or whatever our community of culture means to us. 2/3

Today, Feb 1, is generally my favorite day of the year - when we Northern Hemisphere folks really start to notice the lengthening days. The literal darkest time of the year is over.

Hey, don’t forget to add hashtag #knitting and #knittingthread to your posts so they get added to our knitting feeds. ❀️❀️❀️
Don’t worry, I followed you, but worried you’ll get lost in the noise of everything else on my β€œfollowing” feed.

Knitting needles with black yarn and neon pink for contrast.

Pray for me… I decided to knit a project with black yarn. At least I have neons for contrast. I’ve only frogged twice today. I am hoping I’m off to the races now.

Ichiro Suzuki headlines 2025 Baseball Hall of Fame class | CNN Beloved in Japan and in the US, Ichiro Suzuki now has a permanent home in Cooperstown, New York.

I am so happy for him. He deserves all the accolades. He was such a hard working athlete - never once did he give less than his all.

Knitting pattern sticky notes with colors and chart notes.

Knitting pattern sticky notes with colors and chart notes.

I’m a digital girl - and yes, knitting companion is free. But I’ve also used excel from time to time. It is just more work.
If you are an analog person, I highly recommend these stickies - and attaching them to your printed pattern, moving down as you go.

Ok, that’s supposed to be in the same tone/enthusiasm as β€œWe Ride!” But it just doesn’t do it without explanation. Looking forward to seeing your art!

This funding is so important to all of us as we age. It supports programs for caregivers, meals on wheels, transportation, activity and falls prevention, protections on information, social engagement, and so much more. These are essential services. Please act.

It was so amazing to hear from a former coworker about a major life event via text this morning. I love when relationships continue beyond the term of the circumstance that created the reason for the relationship.
