Rice students expose ICE raids with new interactive map It's a nationwide digital spotlight on ICE arrests and detention centers.

College money well spent and needed.

Rice students created an interactive map exposing ICE raids across the country as they're unfolding.

Soon it will be a map of ICE raids and ICE murders.

Keep reminding Schumer and Dems.

Once youโ€™re past the โ€œwhat the?โ€ stage. And the frightful thought of birthing a full grown human stage. Itโ€™s kinda awesome really. Maybe everyone should be wearing one?

A closeup arced segment of a hand knit dragon scales neck piece. Worked in a multi tonal variegated kettle dyed yarn. ๐Ÿงถ Beads at the tips of each scales. Scales are in ascending size (top down) they overlap slightly and have some dimension- a bit of popping up curve in each one.

A close up to better see the beads.

Same piece hung on a wooden hanger. The split is facing forward here. The other side is a smooth unbroken arc. It looks good worn either way.

A pretty thing I knit.
Sharing for eye candy sake only.
I canโ€™t say when (or if) this or anything waiting in the wings will ever be written up as a pattern again.

A tentacle topped cake on a blue plate on a wooden tabletop from a slightly elevated view.
The cake is chocolate bundt, shaped like cathedral windows. Dusted in powdered sugar, iced with double whip cream frosting (heavy cream and cream cheese) oozing out over the center dusted with blue sugar. Shaped green tentacles protrude as is bursting forth from the top. 
My frosting was a bit peaky and resisted oozing, but still pleased.

Wire or plastic cord would be super cool but the construction factor makes it a hard no. They start with a Judys magic CO an odd double-wound around 2 needles provisional CO ugh.

They changed the formula in 22 not as effective but not as poison. I donโ€™t think itโ€™s going to work for my purpose anyway. Ty for โ˜ ๏ธ tho.
In half one, pinned on flat surface & heat seal top open with a fitted piece.
Gel or acrylic is a thought Or they have these snap together full balls. Pondering

Thank you, HH to you too! There is a link to it on Ravelry in the alt text of purple blue oneโ€ฆ Idk if she is on other outlets but is called the Ice Crystal Snowflake by Shelley Cormack. She has several styles of snowflake patterns-yhis one was my favorite.

Half globe plastic plant hanger on a white wall. holding a plant, and water with roots and rocks.

No joke!

Mm yes, pain enough to do at this size. Been pondering something like scotchguard. Will trial it on a plain square tomorrow. Also could be fun mounted inside something like in this pic for sorta 1/2 snow globe. No actual water.
They take forever Iโ€™d like them to last.

I feel you, allergies are a delight ๐Ÿ™„I'm allergic to SO much. Ok for dust and cats so far ๐Ÿคž. Hadn't considered dust when choosing fiber obv, (fuzzy white is not gonna hold up now you mention it). A slick cotton or seacell would repel dirt & dust enough? Better at least.

1st white is done. More otw. I need better white yarn, something sparkly. Yowza is delicious but edge bobbles get fuzzy from handling so much.
These take forever but worth it. Maybe DPN next one. This tiny circ w magic loop ๐Ÿซ

A second knit snowflake in white in progress. Just picked up the sts for the front from the hold yarn. Both surfaces are the same then stuffed. Going much faster this time ๐Ÿ˜Š Looking crisp in white.

my first and itโ€™s a bit wonky. Relearned Judyโ€™s Magic CO for 156 sts in round on magic loop. Oof. Practiced around 800 til smooth motion but they want to not catch, slip off when adjust for full tips - counts wrong, twist. Last time it was around 10 for toe up sock. Dt in alt
