Maybe we could all use a little more wool in our feeds today.
A mechanically wound ball of a 1-ply white Leicester Longwool yarn held by a pale hand against a brushed metal background. The yarn is uneven and very lustrous. It doesn't look soft.

So happy to donate! Love the Seek app. It has almost never let me down. Although yesterday it struggled with my photography skills.

For me, as for Bruce Wayne, sleep is a necessary evil. It hinders me from fighting crime, from saving lives.
The image is a panel from a comic book showing Bruce Wayne looking through a window at the night sky lit up hi the Bat Signal. The caption box reads, in Swedish, "Sömnen är ett nödvändigt ont, som Bruce Wayne ser det. Det hindrar honom att stävja brott, att rädda liv."

A colleague sent me a photo of my office door today.
Screen shot of a text conversation that begins with the other person sending a photo of an office door with a post-it on reading, "Meeting in progress." Under the photo, they have texted, "You've been in a meeting for over a month now!" I have replied, "It's a really good meeting!"

Thanks! The repeat pattern is from Alterknit Stitch Dictionary by Andrea Rangel. The yarn is Kauni.
The cover of a book by Andrea Rangel called Alter Knit Stitch Dictionary featuring several swatches knitted with patterns from the book.
