Time for some sock surgery - one bind-off is a bit too tight and the other is coming undone, so the socks are getting new cuffs!

The cuffs of two handknit socks. One sock has blue and white colorwork with a pink cuff. The other sock has pink and white colorwork with a blue cuff. On the blue and white sock with a pink cuff, a cable runs through the row below the cuff. A few rows of a new pink cuff have been added to the blue and white sock.

The Simple Thing scarf is off the needles and soaking now, but here is a pre-block preview (with a sock cameo)

I wrote up a pattern for the socks I just finished!

It's free. It's also untested by anyone but me and only comes in one size 😂 (mine)

Toe-Up, Forethought Heel, Knit/Purl texture with charts and/or written directions

I wanted to knit a pair of socks, but couldn’t get into any of the patterns I tried. So I looked through some stitch dictionaries for inspiration. When I saw the Seersucker Stitch, I was reminded of d...

Stash busting with The Simple Thing by @heathlandknits.bsky.social

As the name implies - it's quite simple, which makes it perfect for modification.

I'm using fingering weight yarn, 3.25mm needles, and I'm increasing/decreasing every 10 rows.

Bring back *everyone* who was sent from the U.S. to CECOT in El Salvador. *No one* should be sent there. ALL their rights were violated. ALL of them should come home.

Socks are done! #knitting #knitsky 🧶

no lies detected. #civilrights
The image shows a text post from a tumble user with the handle "theconcealedweapon" making an argument about the importance of protecting the rights of criminals as a safeguard against government tyranny. The post presents the following key points: If you want to prevent government tyranny, ensuring criminals have rights must be your top priority This is not meant as a joke or exaggeration Without rights for criminals, governments can simply label people as criminals to strip away their rights The post claims this has been a common tactic of tyrannical governments throughout history The post concludes that believing people who break laws should forfeit their rights is effectively supporting tyranny The argument centers on the idea that due process and legal protections for accused/convicted persons are fundamental safeguards against authoritarian government overreach.

Thank you!!!
crockett.house.gov Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett @crockett.house.gov · Apr 10
Today, we’re voting on what Republicans are calling the “SAVE Act”—but let’s be real, it’s a straight-up voter suppression bill.

They are literally trying to make it harder for millions of Americans to exercise their right to vote.

I’m voting NO—hell no, actually.

Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married?

Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote.

Call your rep—this is not a drill. indivisible.org/resource/cal...

@repwesleybellmo.bsky.social, please oppose the SAVE Act. This bill would disenfranchise me because, as a mother of two young children living overseas, I wouldn't always be able to register in person. The SAVE Act puts an unreasonable burden on voters who rely on mail registration. #ProtectOurVotes

One sock done! (It is not actually blocked, nor are the ends woven in, but I wanted a nice picture)

I really like how this yarn is working up! 🧶

Somehow I've found myself writing a pattern, though, and it's using up a lot of my brainpower
Half of a hand knit sock made with dark, variegated yarn in cool tones. It features a diamond motif. The sock is on top of a knitting chart that has a lot of messy notes written on it.

Had trouble finding a sock pattern I liked, so just decided to make up my own.

I highly recommend looking through stitch dictionaries for inspiration. I found mine here: www.studioknitsf.com/seersucker-s...

The beginning of a toe-up, handknit sock made with variegated purple and gray yarn on top of a note book with a very rough knitting chart. The chart shows a textured diamond motif that can also be see on the sock itself.

It's #SafeSleepWeek2025
A baby sitting in the middle of a poker table. A stuffed bear, a stuffed rabbit, a blanket, and a pillow are playing a game of poker for the baby’s life. The text reads: Don’t play games with your baby’s life. Go all-in on safe sleep. Bare is best! Keep pillows, blankets, toys, padded crib bumpers, and everything else out of a baby’s sleep space.
