I might have to take a social media break. I have rage fatigue and am completely overwhelmed with this planet at the moment.
Finding it hard to maintain hope. Bleh.

At least this time could we stop with the cutsey puns and the grandma references when discussing this industry?
There are tons of independent dyers who rely on US business who don't need to be condescended to right now. FFS

Third time's a charm?
Pattern purchased when it was first published in 2007, yarn is Laci from Blue Moon Fiber Arts (no longer in business) about the same time.

I've tried knitting Irtfa'a a couple times, but I'm really determined to finish it this time.
I wasn't my own raven's wings, dammit! 😂😂

Increasingly addicted to watching Inside No. 9 .

I still can't believe I didn't know about this series until this year! It's deliciously dark and spooky at times. The stories are fantastic.

Donald Trump’s deployment of the military in Los Angeles over the objection of California leaders is an abuse of power and a dangerous escalation.

It’s what you would see in authoritarian states and it must stop.

Americans have the right to speak out and peacefully protest.

These fascist dipshits keep claiming there is all kinds of violence in Los Angeles right now. At this very moment, even!

Weirdly, every single local channel is running regular programming, instead of this BREAKING NEWS EVENT.

It's like ... it's like the dipshits are lying, or something. Weird.

Speaking of socks, here's a mini painting of a pair of socks that I did not too long ago.
I didn't realize until after I finished it, that the reference photo used was actually a painting as well. Oops... 🤪

I'm also onto the sleeves of this pullover (for me).
Since we are heading into much warmer weather here in Canada, I'm taking my time finishing it. 🧶😊❤️

I just checked and it looks like the last pair of socks I knit was in 2021.

I've been knitting this current pair over the last few days and every stitch has felt really therapeutic.
I forgot how satisfying a good heel turn is, too. #knitting #🧶 #knittedsocks

These days, when I have trouble sleeping, I find searching #Ravelry for patterns to add to my #knitting queue actually calms my mind.

Watching British Crime Dramas, knitting a sock, and enjoying bonding time with our foster cat Rooni.

She recently discovered laps are cozy places and people aren't so scary.

TFW you find the exact knitting pattern you were looking for, but the creator's online store is out of business. #waaaaaahhhh

Spent this holiday Monday finally digging the garden that I wanted to put beside the shed in our yard since we moved in.
Planted hostas, phlox, sedum, sage and lavender.
I can't stop looking at it now. It looks so cute, even at night! #gardensky #gardens #summer

So maybe this year will be the year I let myself dive deep into oil painting. Or... At least I'll give it the good old college try, anyways...

Excited to finally have separated for the sleeves and am now on the straightaway of stockinette for the body of this pullover.

I really love the feel of this Estelle DK yarn!

Tonight I joined the Margins Club . A local cafe hosts nights where everyone in the joint shows up, orders themselves coffee & reads quietly (no talking!) for an hour or two while listening to jazz music.
Also includes an optional book swap at the end & social time.
It was heaven! #booksky

I have now restarted the same sweater five times.
I should know better than to try to watch tv and knit short rows with left and right leaning increases on both sides.

My brain just isn't able to process that kind of silliness these days. 🤣
5th times a charm?
