Ooh this looks like it could be my next stash buster project. knitty.com/ISSUEw25/PAT...

Cuccidati These Cuccidati (Italian Fig Cookies) are fantastically festive with a snowy white glaze and colored sprinkles. Take a bite and you know it's Christmas time.

Worked on the dough and the fig filling for these cookies. I’m making them mostly for my MIL so she can tell me how they’re not right. 😂😂

It’s a lot easier to deal with her now that we are several states away.

That sounds horrible! I hope it passes soon.

So happy to hear it! Thank you!

I'm so happy it gave you a smile :)

He's such a professional! :)

Thank you!!

He really does! 🥰

Thank you! It looks wonderful on Duncan.

A medium sized terrier dog sits nicely on a chair. He is gray and dark brown with floppy ears and the cutest little face. He is wearing a new sweater knit by his mom. The sweater is marled in black and rainbow colors.

Are you all ready for this? I finished the Lucky Dog Sweater (Pattern by Sole Salvo for Purl Soho) and the way it fits Duncan is incredible. He looks like a sleek model of a dog walking around the neighborhood. The fabric is warm enough to keep him nice and cozy. Highly recommend this pattern. 🧶🧶🧶

I had read The Marriage Portrait and enjoyed it but not as much as Hamnet. I am curious about the movie, too. Have been hearing very good things.

Yes! And saying to it: Here’s my heart! Wring it out!

The second isTrain Dreams on Netflix. Gorgeous film about a life of love and family and work and struggle. How lovely it was to watch these men sit around a campfire and discuss their work and their effect on the world. There is loss and pain and it isn’t minimized because a man is feeling it. ❤️

Consumed two emotionally devastating works recently. Hamnet (book) was excellent. I saw a lot of criticism online that it was boring but I am a big fan of a novel that doesn’t rely on a galloping plotline if the writing can stand up to it. Gorgeous writing, words so carefully selected. Loved it.

Thank you! I’m so excited to finish it and see how it looks on my handsome boy.

Thank you! I had forgotten about that colorful ball of yarn but came across it during a rummage in the stash.

A knitting WIP on a table with two balls of yarn attached. one ball is brown rainbow twisted and the other ball is black. The project is a dog sweater knit with the two yarns held together. There is also a late blooming rose in a small vase.

Since I’ve been on a gift making streak, I decided Duncan (my sweet pup) needs a new sweater. He has hair rather than fur and is prone to matting/felting if he wears a dog sweater too long. I’m using a mostly silk yarn held with a merino strand for this. Hope it helps in that aspect. 🧶🧶🧶

I’m in the States but there are so many good toaster oven/air fryer combo appliances out now. We just got one for our son to use so he can make quicker meals during the week.

Oh, I’m to the very sad part of Hamnet now.

Packing orders and listening to Hamnet. How’s your Sunday?

Two twisted hanks of yarn on a white background. They are hand dyed in shades of light gray, pale gold, pink with speckled of rust, blue and brown.
