I actually felt like stitching, which is a rare occasion these days. So I pulled out #CornwallCottageSampler by @RosewoodManor. The border is about 90% done. Maybe I will finish it this year.

Had fun yesterday at the yarn dying studio of @theWeeYarnCompany. We had a little Halloween event, with time to shop and knit and watch a movie. I ended up purchasing a few goodies 😊

Ribbing is finally done, and I'm starting on adding the second colour. My first time working a pattern with two colours and I'm excited!
#FlambeBeanie by @DyeCandy and yarn by @undercoverotter.bsky.social in colourways #BloodBeach (coral/pink neon) #Underworld (dark blue/teal)

Two weeks ago I started my #FlambeBeanie by #DyeCandy with @undercoverotter.bsky.social squirm sock yarn in colourway #BloodBeach
The neon pink/coral is hard to capture in pictures. But it's wonderful yarn!

Also ... 1x1 ribbing is boring, but looks great

Finished the #PineBarrensHat by my dear friend #NittanyKnits. I wanted a snug fit so got a slightly thicker yarn. Love it!!
You can find the pattern here www.ravelry.com/patterns/sou...

Had to restart due to a miscount, but I'm really enjoying this one 😊

It's 32°C so obviously I'm casting on a new winter hat. 😎 This design is called #PineBarrensHat by Nittany Knits (linked below). Yarn is #LifeInTheLongGrass #Heathstar (aran, 100% merino)

Close to a finish on my socks. Striped yarn is from last year's #queerdo collection by @undercoverotter.bsky.social and @theweeyarncompany. Heads up: this year's collection will also feature @thenocturnestudio. You don't want to miss out! Registry starts June 6th

Tens of thousands of people (maybe even 100.000) showed up today in the Hague. To say no to genocide and urge the Dutch government to change their stance toward Israel.

Started the second sock, and very happy with the progress so far. Aiden (@undercoverotter) dyes the best colours as you can see. The self striping yarn is from their 2024 queerdo collection. Fitting since today is my aro-ace coming out anniversary 🏳️‍🌈

Took a lot of years, but I finally finished #TakapunaBeach by @CharacterCreations. The chart is unfortunately out of print.

Only 6.000 stitches to go for a finish on #TakapunaBeach by #CharacterCreations. This might become my first finish in a long time.

Cold morning walk to remind me spring is here and to break in my new hiking shoes. My 30 year old Meindl's are getting too heavy for casual walks. I hope my new and lighter pair will last another 30 years 😉

Sometimes the trains don't run. And then it sucks to get up at dark o'clock. But at least I got a nice view of the dawn sky.

After my last stitching finish I feel my stitchy bug asking for more. So I'm going to see if i can finish #TakapunaBeach by #CharacterCreations next (unfortunately this chart is out of print). I'm at 80% done at the moment, just 10.656 stitches left 😅
