Made my final trip to Joann's yesterday to buy whatever quilting supplies I could find. I got a rotary cutter, rulers, and a cutting mat for cheap. But it's sad and I feel for the people working who are losing their jobs and still busting their asses while people go nuts buying up everything.

Ok I'm learning terminology now: hand PIECING is when you hand sew all the quilt top pieces together. Hand QUILTING is when you make a sammy of backing, batting, and quilt top and join them all together by hand sewing. I want to do both.

Started the Pengweeno cardigan by Stephen West for a friend's baby. I pulled out a bunch of scraps and I'm actually really excited to see how it will turn out! I have a pretty tight deadline of 2.5 weeks 😬 so I'm hoping I can make it in time if I commit really hard to it.

Have been so sick that I haven't touched a knitting needle since Saturday. Finally feeling more myself today. I've stash busted quite a bit and I'm thinking I can reward myself with some yarn, specifically some of this in black:

Here's a bunch of knitting hot takes I enjoyed watching. Don't agree with all but I love when people are super honest and don't surgercoat what they think WITHOUT being mean or catty.

😑 the new cat peed in the room where I keep my yarn. Usually I keep all my yarn in closed plastic bins but I had left 2 cakes out. Now they smell like cat pee. Very unhappy. My plan is to reskein them and wash in diluted vinegar. If anyone has tips though it's appreciated.
