Heading out in my Coorie-in Poncho. Still my favourite layering piece.

I’m wearing my red one over the top of my grey wool coat. A bold splash of colour on an otherwise grey day.

Have you knitted a Coorie In Poncho? How do you like to style yours?

Haha! So true.

Platform 8/9W at Edinburgh Waverley is, without a doubt, the coldest place in the whole city. Grateful for the scalding latte from Nero currently warding off frostbite.

Mum and me in our matching #grandmacorehood - knitted by mum, designed by Veronika Lindberg - exploring Bryant Park last week in the snow after a wonderful time at #vogueknittinglive. How cute are we!?

I might not take this jumper off until Spring Equinox. Design: Extra Texture by Stephen West. Yarn: Drops Lima held with Isager Alpaca 1 in Shade 17 and a random cone of dark burgundy laceweight alpaca silk from my stash.

I’ve been busy adding names in my book for the 2025 My Word Goddess Readings. Such a joy to see so many familiar names as folk return year after year. Knowing that these readings form such a loving and supportive element to this time of year makes my heart glad. amypalko.com/2025-my-word...

The Spirit of Tasmania has arrived in Leith.

Oh how fun! And the museum is such a beautiful venue to meet at. Has to be one of my favourite places in the whole of Edinburgh.

Aw, I’m so glad you enjoyed your visit!

Edinburgh people - we’re looking for office space preferably in Leith area. Do you know of any?

Seems like the launch of these annual readings arrives earlier & earlier! But here we are - the 2025 My Word Goddess Readings are now available.

If you would like to know which goddess will be accompanying you through 2025 please do check these readings out. amypalko.com/2025-my-word...

Felt incredibly lucky to witness my dad’s talk at #FOHCongress100 today in Edinburgh. Very proud. You were brilliant @bobleckridge.bsky.social!!

Oh that’s exciting! Thank you so much for compiling!

Very lucky to live in such a pretty city. #edinburgh

Dinner tonight is salmon served with broccoli cheese gratin and season 2 of Charmed for company. Wondering what 90s show you missed out on first time round?

Wow! Super chilly down here at the shore. Temps have really fallen in #Edinburgh. Glad for my woolies. Today’s knits: Jojo Tricot’s Lili’s Bobble Sweater, Joji Locatelli’s Starting Point Shawl and Purl Soho’s Slip Stitch Handwarmers. Super cosy. #knitfaststaywarm #wearyourknits

A wee intro - I’m an Edinburgh-based goddess guide and astrologer with a focus on goddess asteroids. I’m also a knitter & knitwear designer who podcasts over on YT (The Meaningful Stitch). I particularly love to knit shawls aka soulskins. Loves swans & seals & Mary Oliver poems. 🧶🦢🪐🦭

For reference. Before & after. It’s like a knitters version of spot the difference!

I can sleep easy once more.

Sunday morning and I’m fixing a mistake in my knitting that was virtually invisible to everybody but me.

9H Saturn for Moon and 8H Jupiter for Mercury & Rising

Really appreciated your take on the 2H. My Moon lives here, and so I’m always trying to gain additional insight. But you’re so right - feels like a blind spot.

Just attended the most wonderful Faculty of Astrological Studies seminar on Progressions by Toby Aldren. Fascinating, inspiring, touching. So grateful.

Do you have a knitting podcast? Or know anyone here who has a YT channel that focuses on knitting? 🧶

Saw The Wild Robot last weekend. Empty-nesters - take your tissues - this one was up there with Ladybird for me. I nearly went through a whole pack of handy andys.

Trawling through astrological ephemeris gathering data on goddess asteroid transits of 2025 to add into the upcoming My Word Goddess Readings. A lot of work but so excited to include the asteroid info this time! #goddessguidance

Love that! Yes!
