Earring! Could’ve used that! I wish I had the dexterity for DPNS. I’ve used them before but my hands weren’t cooperative.

A pair of socks are being knit, with a candy wrapper saving the day by marking the beginning of a new row.

Knitting in the car (waiting for kids, of course) calls for emergency measures. Thank God the wrapper to “immunity boosting” candy was handy so I could mark the end of my row! What emergency stitch markers have you used? I need to scrounge around and see what else I can find.

I want to follow more people writing about Appalachia. Who do you recommend? Are you? I’m on Substack and I’ll follow! (I’m at angienewsome.substack.com myself)

I visited Heritage Weavers & Fiber Artists at Historic Johnson Farm outside Hendersonville, NC, today. So much weaving, spinning and knitting inspiration!
