Timeline cleanser: my first attempt at a #sprang bag. Sprang is a type of weftless finger weaving that appeared around 1500BCE or so. The work is not lovely, but it will hold this tiny version of the Giant Rat of Sumatra.*

Happy Friday, all.

When I'm not screaming into the void, I weave. I finally finished a languishing project to add panels to a tablecloth.
What are you doing? How are you managing? #8shaft #schachtspindle #mightywolf

Timeline refresher. I saw a painting by abstract- expressionist Joan Mitchell (1925-1992) *after* I picked out these colors and now I have a new inspiration to explore.

Breakfast with friends, reading INCENDIARY by the brilliant @geraldcoleman.bsky.social. Coffee, "Honoring The Sisko: Fixing DEEP SPACE NINE," "How to Argue with Conservatives," and "Good Marketing" gets your day off to a fine start.

I'll be taking some time off from social media, but in the mean time, may I recommend two very different works, from two amazing writers, @brackenmacleod.bsky.social and @zzclaybourne.bsky.social? Enjoy!

It's a pleasure to crochet from the skull of your friend!* Imagine how much more delicious to employ the skull of your enemy!

Here's some gorgeousness for the timeline! Flowers from the farm; there's such lovely detail on the tentacles, including the colored stones.

At DragonCon this weekend? Stop by the @hibernacula.bsky.social table and see more stunning work by Kelly, or check out the shop's website (in comments).

That magic moment when you go into a fiber store, ask for a book on fibers from "other critters," and the manager hands you this.💜Thank you, @portfiber.bsky.social!

There is a moment in every warping process when it just makes more sense to do laundry instead.

Yes, the promised cat bed is made. Yes, she still prefers the spinning wheel case.

When you see saucer-sized googly eyes on the espresso machine and this little gem behind the counter...well, you know you've found a good place to be.

I shifted the cat long enough to finish the carrier for my #spinningwheel. I wanted to use materials from my stash, and buy nothing new. I still need to do some finishing work on the zippers and make a removable pad for the shoulder straps, but I'm happy with how it fits. Zoe is too. ;-) #lendrum

Quite right, little cat. Why did I ever imagine I needed to make a bag for my spinning wheel? #everythingisacatbed

When the little cat realized she was sitting almost in center of my pattern, she quickly moved so that she was sitting *precisely* in the center of my pattern. 🙄 #zerofucksdetected #catbuttmarksthespot

Like all of my favorite gatherings, Necon is filled with friends (old and new) yammering about writing, horror, spec fic, and art, science, and nerdery of all kinds. 💜💜💜 w/ @dannybzski.bsky.social @deathginger.bsky.social @erricknunnally.bsky.social @izzylee.bsky.social @brackenmacleod.bsky.social

This little friend kept trying to come at me, fangs bared.
Remember and learn from my experience: if you go into the butterfly room of a museum, you're not supposed to flail if they get too close.

Awesome mail days are awesome! The catalog of the exhibit "Sherlock Holmes in 221 Objects" by the Mirankers and my copy of THE EXPERIENCES OF LOVEDAY BROOKE, LADY DETECTIVE (with my foreword) have arrived! #SherlockHolmes #19thcdetectivefiction #LovedayBrooke

Found in the backyard: Any clues as to what they are?

I still trying to figure out my field guide (I'm only up to "does it have gills?" and "do not eat or touch anything").

One of the truly excellent aspects of my cats is the "hands-on" managerial style they practice. If Smaller Cat is not right in the middle of unwieldy projects, where the action is, she's making sure I'm using the sewing machine correctly.

Home from a trip, I discover one cat has learned to break into my office (where she expressly is not allowed without supervision) and the other conned the Cat Sitter into giving her a treat in bed. The spoiled little minx didn't even clear up her plate after. #CatScienceIsReal #catsdomesticatedus

The garden is starting to really perk up--in between rain showers.

Happy pub day to @erricknunnally.bsky.social and THE QUEEN OF SATURN AND THE PRINCE IN EXILE! I'm so looking forward to reading this!
