I find this happening to me a lot lately as I try to use up yarn in my stash. It’s a bit stressful🤪

Today in class I folded a sheet of A4 paper into fourths, then tore it into 4 pieces perfectly along the creases and now my students think I have a super power. #teaching

Good morning, Womble. I just finished One Perfect Couple by Ruth Ware. For the most part, I enjoyed it. Will begin A Resistance of Witches by Morgan Ryan today. Happy reading to all!

We have two 30-minute playtimes built into our school day. There’s an awesome sledding hill right by the school, and Tuesday was the perfect snowy day to conquer it. ❄️🛷

This is where I live- Trondheim. My husband’s grandparents’ identity cards from that time are in their old house that is now used as a ski hut. I found them in a drawer one day. So surreal to see that Nazi symbol.

It really depends on where we are skiing. In remote areas she will let him off. He has had a lot of training but is only 7 mo. On prepared tracks where there are more people, dogs are normally on leashes for their safety and those skiing. My fav part of skiing is seeing the happy dogs run by😀

Aww, I made one of these a few years ago with some yarn my husband bought when he was in Estonia.

This film hit me harder than I expected. When the lights came up, many of us were still sitting there, quiet and moved. A truly beautiful, masterful film. Highly recommend both the book and the film. #Hamnet #films

Omg I’m SO glad I read this. Yarn arrived for a spring sweater… plus a bunch of white yarn, and I could not remember why I ordered it.

Pretty sure it was for an emotional support chicken 😂🐔

Hi! I have had shoulder problems in the past from knitting too much. So now I’m really attentive to how I’m sitting and make sure my elbows are resting on something as I knit, esp projects that are heavier.

I actually use them for wiping/cleaning the kitchen counter. I use a brush for washing the dishes😊 But still, as you say, they need a trip through the washing machine quite often.
