Excited that my new pattern for a #crochet summer poncho will be available later this month at Fiber Circle Studio for the 2025 Wine Country Yarn Hop. A little sneak peak for you. Details coming soon. #crochetsky

They are!! Oh I bet she will be the best fiesty little love bug.

Oh she is gorgeous! Love me a little fluffy Calico. I have one myself, and she is such a personality.

Thank you!!

Santa Rosa CA started on a sidewalk in a main commercial area and we ended up taking the streets. Lots of love and peaceful demonstration today.

#nokingsday #SantaRosaCA where a sidewalk protest turned into a march. Peaceful demonstration and Good Trouble. Thousands strong.

California's ELECTED Senator had questions for the Homeland Security Director, but he was forcibly removed. This is AUTHORITARIANISM. There is nothing else to call it. We are past what if. We are IN it.

I have no desire to be on Meta products anymore.

Same thing happened with my very uncontroversal instagram account. No way to appeal, couldn't talk to a person. A computer decided I wasn't following community standards and I still don't know why. I was able to backup somethings from my decades on Meta.

If Musk & his pals are so concerned about increasing the national debt in Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill, why don’t they cut the $664 billion in tax breaks for the 1%; the $420 billion in tax breaks for large profitable corporations; & the $150 billion in increased military spending?

I guess I am not surprised after the last few months. Can we get him out early?

A photo of RFK Jr. For the NYT with the headline White House Health Report Included Fake Citations

"It makes me concerned about the rigor of the report, if these really basic citation practices aren't being followed." Katherine Keyes, a professor of epidemiology at Columbia University, was listed as the author of a paper on mental health and substance use among adolescents. She has not written any paper by the title the report cited, nor does one seem to exist by any author.

An epidemiologist at Columbia had to issue a statement saying the research article RFK Jr. cited with her name is FAKE. It’s not real. The paper itself doesn’t EXIST.

Yall this is fascism. FAKE scientific articles used by the government to influence policy is FASCISM. This is horrifying.

Diagonapples pattern by Anna Maltz A long, bias knit, garter stitch, diagonally striped scarf specially designed to utilise one skein of Appleton Crewel Wool for each stripe. Can be worn wrapped multiple times or folded double as the m...

However, I felt the color change pattern suited my vision better in this pattern I picked up ages ago. It was written for thread weight yarn in a scarf. Modifying to fit the dimensions of the Habitation throw in sock weight. www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

Habitation Throw pattern by Helen Stewart Habitation, the “act or fact” of living somewhere, is a pleasantly old-fashioned, practical kind of word. It shares a common word-ancestor with habitat, which brings to mind the downy nests and peacef...

The Habitation Throw was the inspiration www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

The yarn by Gem State on Etsy www.etsy.com/listing/1634...

Yarn in pink, gold and sage colors, with the beginning of a project on needles in garter knit stitch, with a cute set of stitch markers. Displayed mostly unwound in hanks, except for two wound skeins in gold speckles and white with rust speckles.

I have never made myself a blanket! I saw this mini kit by Gem State... fell in love, & decided it was time. Grabbed two 10 skein mini sets and a coordinating full skein for 2157yds. Modifying the DiagonApples scarf, which is similar to the Habitation throw pattern. Links in comments #KnitSky

Trump is telling us we can do with less while he accepts luxury bribes from dicators, authoritarians, and oligarchs around the globe. Thanks, MAGA, for all this winning.✌🏼

My daughter-in-love (other son's partner) helped by gluing it all to a pin, and my son added the Think pin. My kids are queer and they fill my life with creativity & joy, can't imagine a life where they aren't celebrated for the amazing young people they are.

Four flowers wrapped with purple, white and green embroidery thread glued to a pin covered in green leaves with a "Think Before it's too late" pin on top. Made for gender queer kids for their prom Boutonnière.

My kid forgot to get his his partner a boutonnière for prom tonight. He had 45 min left, so I grabbed some flowers and came up with this. (1/2)

We are not posting about Cinco de Mayo.

(1/10) Today is Nat'l Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Relatives. Hanna Harris would have been 33 years old. On the 4th of July in 2013, Harris went to Lame Deer on the Northern Cheyenne Reservation in Montana to watch the fireworks.

Thank you for speaking up!

I design crochet/knit stuff because I want to wear it & couldn't find a pattern. Often, I write up the pattern because people ask me to. I design for bigger bodies first. I don't design for aesthetics or algorithms.
I don't sell much, so when I do, it makes my day 🥰 Thanks internet person!

I will forever say "told you so". Sorry. Not Sorry.

I don't know about you, but when someone is always playing the victim, my bullshit alarm goes off. I am so tired of that 🍊💩 blaming everyone else. It is so exhausting.

Bah! Got me! I am NO to Rahm or anyone who got us here, honestly. Throw them all out, and start all over.

Something home owners don't experience, acute anxiety when their property manager sends an email.

In order for this much corruption and authoritarianism to take hold, it is important we recognize how broken the system was to get here. If we resist and pervail, we can not merely go back to what was before.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!
