I got so good at enjoying my hobbies that I started to find more hobbies like them and now I haven’t got enough time in a day to do all my hobbies…. 😭 🧶

I am obsessed with this. I also want to eat them all.
’Tis the season for a biscuit set inspired by Victorian scrapbooking. 🍪

These festive scraps come from two scrapbooks in the Powerhouse Collection, both thought to have been compiled by children between 1880 and 1890.

Teaching in the week before Christmas break is a weird mix between feeling relaxed because it’s “just projects and activities” and being on the constant verge of tears because wtf how is it not break yet?

My big project: The Death Generator.
It's a tool for making fake video game screenshots, just fill in new text and it'll give you a (generally) pixel-accurate image back, the correct fonts and everything.

I won! My first yarn 🧶 spun with supported long-draw. Looks pretty woollen spun to me! Also pictured is its short-forward-draw sister. I don’t see much of a difference but the long-draw (red tints) feels bouncier.

Practising supported long draw from the fold today on this slippery merino/tussah silk blend. Just when I think I’ve got it I am punished with three breaks in three minutes 😅 looks good though? #spinning 🧶

It’s a lot busier on here since the last time I looked…

Here’s some of my recent work/work in progress to keep you occupied!

Was feeling like absolute arse today and then two different groups of ninth graders/year 9s told me I am beautiful, asked how many dresses I own and that I don’t look 40 at all.

This is why I love teens, no filter for better or for worse.
