A book and 3 skeins of yarn lay on a cream tablecloth. The book is “The Serpent and the Wings of Night” by Carissa Broadbent. The book cover has a silvery scepter, an emerald snake, a dark blue rose, and brownish thorns all woven together with some icy looking water dripping around. The yarn is overall an icy blue, blending softly from almost white to a darker slate blue.

I want to reread Starling House so bad now! I’m so happy with how this color came out. 🧶 📚🪐💙

Still trying to figure out the best way to share collection reveals here on Bluesky! I didn’t like how yesterday’s reveal was all tiny in my feed. So here’s today’s: “The Light in the Window” based on Starling House by Alix E. Harrow! Preorder opens Feb 9th at 2pm PST. Details in comments!

A book and three skeins of yarn lay on a cream tablecloth. The book is Starling House by Alix E. Harrow. The cover has many starlings swooping around, several with rings of skeleton keys in their beaks, as well as teal foliage and orange-yellow flowers. The yarn is a glowy golden yellow.

Dangit!! I have my first cabled project queued up, but I haven’t had time to start yet! Maybe this week I’ll finally get it going?! 🧶

Hello knitters 🧶! We are welcoming so many new friends each week; amazing to see the #knitting community grow & flourish in this space!
#ShowMeYourKnits week 26: show me your CABLES.
I don’t have many cabled FOs but HUGE list of cabled thing I *want* to knit…
Talitha bonnet & cabled baby hat
A dusky pink hand knit baby bonnet. It has simple cables and iCord ties and is a bit pointy. It is very small and modelled on a ball of yarn. Golden yellow hand knit baby hat with cables and an iCord sprig sticking up off the top. It is modelled on a ball of yarn and looks like a pear.

With the mad rush to get a lot of yarn dyed in not a lot of time, I have been reading really slowly. And I just realized my book is due tomorrow and I’m only at 46%!!!! I’m a silly goose so I only read on my phone, so I can’t do the airplane mode hack. Please be patient while I grieve.

Oh and also, I’m so tired that I took my bra off to get ready for bed, changed into pajamas, then proceeded to very awkwardly put my bra back on while not taking my Jammie shirt completely off…???!???!?

Phew!!! After several late nights in a row and lots of dyeing, I think we have a finalized plan on how to get everything dyed, photographed, listed, labeled, and packed before the Murder & Magic preorder and Purlside Fiber Fest! Colorway reveals will begin on Saturday! Yay! #knitsky #handdyedyarn 🧶

What is it about passing the 20% mark in an ebook or an audiobook that just makes me feel like “oh, I’ll be done with this one soon”? Am I making sense and does anybody else have the same thing happen? #booksky 📚💙

This is my mom and I’s small business. We are still quite new but it’s been bringing us a lot of joy and a great outlet for all our complicated feelings right now 🩵

A graphic with a gradient background of dark purple-ish maroon fading into black. Swirling text reads “Murder & Magic”, with crescent moons and magical sparkles intertwined with the text.

The yarn soup is soaking and now I’m procrastinating going to bed 👍🏻 should I read until 2am? No. Will I? Probably.
Hang out here with me for more yarnie and bookish stuff!

A clear plastic tub holds an absurd amount of bare yarn soaking in water, bizarrely resembling soup or noodles. The yarn is soaking in preparation for dyeing.
