Your pattern shows up the variegated colourway beautifully!

This is everything!!! ❤️ I have yet to use any AI knowingly for an writing tasks for the same reason that at 55 I choose to shovel wood chips in the garden myself...use it or lose it! What else would I be saving myself for, shopping?

I am not sure who recommended I watch Inherit the Wind, but WOW! AND THANK YOU! Paying it forward here by forwarding the recommendation...1960 film telling a story from 1925...100 years ago and we are still there. I'll leave it at that.

I'm watching the nettles for when the Lady bug mating begins... currently they're all still singles on stalks, but give it 2 weeks ;)

Ladybugs in nettles always a delight.

A favorite moment last year was asking a musician friend who was knitting in a bar before her gig what she was knitting, her answer was knitting her anxiety...best answer ever I thought... Dishcloths are perfect for that. Knit onwards!

Words are like stitches..they all get strung together to make something greater than the whole, and a slow contemplative task...except when they come like a torrent, the equivalent of what I call 'drunken stitches'?

Best feeling ever!!

As things slide from dystopian novel to horror story in the US, this Canadian is keeping sane slowly stitching and gardening.
New vest of hand spun local fleece, local colour just completed. ...How are you coping?

Socialism..yep!

🤣totally go for it

That looks like a good path for walking and spinning, the knitting would be on a couch later on😉

...Liberation day?

A moment from the Means of Production garden where I was most certainly not preparing my taxes today...🙄

Hey, I resemble that...🤣🤣🤣

A 'little lovebalm' of fleece for your eyeball pleasure.
Enjoy Isla and POGG's Gotland x fleece from the #barnstonwool flock

It's actually an unknown wool, like a targhee fleece, only grey, gifted bag of clean fleece spun and knit up likely 10 years ago?

Revisiting an old favourite, my first hand spun tank top, pattern made up as I went...moths have had their way with this, but as it has slightly felted over years, I cut out sections, and have enough raw stash wool from original to spin and patch up to get this guy back in action.

Ohh, I love this game! Closest I have crossed the finish line was 2 ft

Found it!.. I hadn't read down far enough. Good luck, and yes please post your progress

Wow, that is gorgeous, good luck and please share any results!

If you want an affordable city, where everyone is safe and where everyone belongs, Ken Sim isn’t working for you.

We need leaders who are ready to stand up and fight back. That’s why I’m running with @onecityvan.bsky.social for City Council. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGcI...

Wool is antimicrobial, we have gotten used to washing our clothes as if we are wearing polyester and it's so not required with wool!... messy eating aside of course😉

Hmm, UK evenings fit my morning zoom availability, as gardens wake up my time will disappear but pls keep me on any list should something get started, I have a pro zoom account so could host a few too...

Very rarely! I live in wool tank tops as my tshirt equivalent, I hang them on the line for a day after wearing, then back in the closet, probably two or three times a year they got washed? Far less then my linen knits.

Celebrate International Women's Day by interrupting men with your unsolicited opinions and taking credit for their work. If they get upset about it, be sure to tell them that they sound hysterical and should smile more.

Remember when Fridays used to be fun? That little acronym TGIF needs to be rebranded to WTFWTDT ...who else wakes in dread Fridays wondering WTF T will do today?

Looks great Laura!
