Hab meinen Collie gestern dabei erwischt, als er gebellt hat wie ein Irrer. Bin so schnell wie möglich nach draußen. Hund liegt chillig im Schatten und kann nicht mal sehen, wen er anbellt.
Danke für alte, schwerhörige Nachbarn.

Having this small spot on earth which makes it possible to enjoy the beauty of the small things nature has to offer, fills me with gratitude.

This too shall pass.
But what the fuck?

Bei Großeinsätzen wie jetzt in Graz kommt es schnell zu Gerüchten und Spekulationen - umso wichtiger ist, darauf zu achten, was gesicherte Information ist. Und im Zweifelsfall lieber weniger als mehr zu teilen. Wer Informationen der Polizei sucht, findet diese bei @polizeistmk.bsky.social #graz1006

I got an Ashford traditional. Absolutely in love with it.

Thank you! Been saving up for a while and finally splurged on it.

I won't tell anyone that I bought a spinning wheel. But there will be signs 🧶

That yarn looks so fun!

Yeah I can't wait for the weather to get better again. Everything's more fun, if done outside

Thank you 😊

Spinning + coffee + my chaos garden bed in the background = everything I need 🧶🌱

Question for all the fungi experts and connaisseurs:
What the hell is growing on my tree? 🌱

Not a lot of knitting happened lately due to a tennis arm combined with a serious lack of energy. But I'm finally getting back to it. 🧶

I would have killed it as a depressed Victorian lady for I, too, perpetually need a little lie down as respite from the horrors of the day

Oh, how I wish spring would never end..

#variegated hairy cat's ear.. or a dandelion? Either way, it was a lovely find in one of my garden beds. 🌱

Orange and silver glass turkey tail shelves radiate from the end of broken branch, green algae paints their bases, and the last of the winter snow melts underneath. lol photos by me

Here are some nice mushrooms

Wow, beautiful work!

2/ especially considering how we value labour and the welfare of animals.

1/ Might be a language thing, but I am in no way telling you where you should set your priorities as an individual. I am just trying to argue, that quality includes much more than just the usability. And that we should reexamine our consumption of cheaper materials -

I get what you are trying to say and I don't want to minimise other people's struggles. Medical care for trans people is a necessity but yarn is not. If I can't afford ethically sourced yarn, I can't afford yarn, but that is just for me.

As a knitter and spinner I don't think that the supply is limited. Even here in Austria I can find a lot of farmers who are rather happy to get rid of their fleeces and there's quite a few yarn companies around. Guess it's more of a regional thing rather than an European thing?

3/ In the end it comes down to what you personally value more - being able to buy more yarn for your pleasure, or buy less and also have small farmers an their sheep benefit from your consumption.

Sorry for the rant 😅

2/ kept in better conditions. Keeping a smaller herd in and treating them well costs a lot more compared to what you earn than keeping a huge amount of sheep and treating them badly or not caring as much for them.

1/ I do think it comes down to how much more labour is involved with hand handdying smaller batches. Also the treatment of animals plays a factor. Of course merino yarn from Australia, where mulesing is still a common practice is going to be cheaper than the wool of sheep who are -
