I finished my socks!!!!! After 5 or 6 false starts I finally got there. These are adapted from Summer Lee’s Lavendar Sock pattern. Still need blocking by but super comfy merino silk blend.

Each time I have posted this video on other platforms the response has shown how useful people have found it. I teach face to face lessons in distaff spinning in the UK, but I know there are so many people, worldwide, interested in learning this technique and tutors are few. Hope this helps.

Time to sew my cat pyjamas! Yay!
My hand, holding a pinned edge of dark grey and black fabric printed with a cutesey cat-themed riff on the traditional Japanese seigaiha wave pattern (repeating scalloped half-circles with concentric rings inside them) that's supposed to represent water. Some of the half circles are filled with cat faces (grey, black and grey, and black,) and/or paw prints. A french seam, on the inside. The fabric's wrong side is a paler version of the printed pattern, with indistinct white gridlines from the woven fabric visible - the fabric is dobby - a textured weave that has thicker and thinner yarns. The french seam is being held upright by my thumb so you can see the folded central seam edge where the raw edges are captured by another line of stitching, inside the seam. It's a really neat seam and helps prevent fraying of loosely-woven fabrics.

🏳️‍⚧️ It’s Trans Awareness Month. This is a time to listen, learn, and lift up trans voices.

Trans people face growing barriers to healthcare, legal recognition & safety. Their stories are told about them, not with them. Media headlines debate their existence, politicians use their lives to win points
It's time to listen, learn, and lift up trans voices. #TransgenderAwarenessMonth NION logo Image of women holding their arms around each others backs in a rainbow of colours

Freyja Stokes, a real-life #Pratchett scholar, looks at Mrs Palm and the historical connections between sex work and witchcraft... come for the history, stay for some amazing puns.

Today is Trans Parent Day - a day to celebrate both parents who are trans and parents of trans people. It’s also an opportunity for us to speak about the pride we feel for our loved ones.

We’re a group of parents of trans children and adults who care about their future.

Take a break from all the doomscrolling and ghastliness and look at my latest creation “Beautiful Mouse with a Stitchwort Garland”
Maybe this one should be displayed against the skirting board? Available now for purchase should you require such a thing in your life?

Is there anyone on Bsky who remembers this book? It's been out of print for a while, because it needs revising in the light of 5 more years of research & experience (including a proper translation of Umdat ul-Kuttab). Being unpaid work, I've simply not been able to prioritise this, so I've decided…
Cover of "Inks & Paints of the Middle East: A handbook of Abbasid Art Technology", with a geometric composition displaying some of the main pigments involved, with brushes and paint pans made of walnut shells.

Here are some nice mushrooms
A colony of brilliant amethyst Trichaptum biforme mushroom grow in a mossy log. Their undersides are visible as this log recently fell from the dead tree it topped. All photos by me

I am exhausted but the small one is so happy and therefore it was so worth it.

Week 9 of #sewandtell is purple and that’s not a colour I work with much so here’s the skirt pieces for a dress I’m working on tonight. A little Halloween magic for a precious little witch.

An Inkle weaving diagram and warping pattern in the color sequence listed in the text description: The warping pattern is a line of colored boxes with small dots above every other one, above which it states: "Warping Pattern: Each square represents one thread. The squares with dots go through heddles, the squares without dots do not." The weaving diagram is a series of tessellated lozenge shaped tiles illustrating how the pattern will appear when woven.

One colour and weave gamp. 8/2 cotton. Fresh off the loom and ready for washing. Next question is cotton, silk, or alpaca for scarves?

#handwoven #loomwoven #weaving
Colour and weave gamp - different warp threading of black and white yarn are crossed by those same threadings in weft to make a map of what patterns emerge. In between sections is an orange border

Made use of a spare half hour to get into the actual weaving this afternoon. It’s a basic colour and weave gamp but so lovely to be back at the loom.
A price of weaving showcasing different combinations of black and white thread in both warp and weft - think all on colour warp with 1 black, 1 white thread woven into it then 2 black threads and 1 white thread. Each section of warp and weft pattern has an orange stripe between them

Bell Beast (Silksong) 🪡🧶

I was part of the testing team of this awesome project, I'm so excited to share! 😍

It's been a while since I made something this elaborate, but it's so well written it's so easy to follow. And it's a free pattern!! What?! We don't deserve this awesome community 😭💕
Amigurumi Bell Beast, from Silksong. It's 2 different pictures, the top one shows the beast from the side, and the bottom one it's a bit tilted to show the mask better. In dark and light grey, black and white. The beast has 10 legs and 6 "scales" in the back.
