I knit and chase my dog and teach fitness and try to occasionally raise some children in my free time.
Instant fall favorite—the #claysweater from #ozetta, in yarn so local it doesn’t have a name. Love it! #knitsky

"How bad slavery was" is worse. Much worse. Much worse than you think, much worse than you're taught, much worse than museums depict. Worse.

The White House's memes about imprisonment, deportation, and death by alligator are designed to radicalize and desensitize.
“What you have is this desire to get people to buy into the fun of sadism,” says Jason Stanley, an author who’s leaving the US because of “concerns over fascism.”

I love the way the #ShowMeYourKnits prompts encourage me to look at my older pieces with fresh eyes, so for #knitterschoice week I’ve chosen the newest finished thing I’ve got. Here’s my #Tessasweater, in yarn from @thebluebrick.bsky.social and #plymouthyarns. #knitsky

A little of my #WIP for this week’s #ShowMeYourKnits: a #TessaSweater in “Lemon Ray” from @thebluebrick.bsky.social. Bought the yarn before I really “did” sweaters and didn’t buy enough, but I found a nice neutral match from #plymouthyarn to do the hem and 2nd sleeve. Eventually. #knitsky

Weird how the new concentration camp immediately started doing all the same things the old concentration camps did.
People in Alligator Auschwitz describe the inhumane conditions in the concentration camp—insufficient water, scarce and unsanitary food, lack of medicine, denial of religious rights, etc.
“They're not respecting our human rights. We're human beings—we're not dogs. We're like rats in an experiment."

When I started knitting I felt like #garterstitch was low-key embarrassing—a bumpy, lumpy, stretchy mess I was only doing because I couldn’t do anything else. As is so often the case, time and experience proved me wrong.

#ShowMeYourKnits I knit this in public; I knit it everywhere! It started conversations and even made me a few connections. 1700 yards later it was done just in time to sit waiting for winter to come again….

Finished! I’ve been deeply ambivalent about this project throughout, but when I realized there was a chill in the air this morning I reached for it without a second thought, so that’s probably a success.
