Thinking of my mum who I lost last year. I hear ppl say they would love to see their loved one for an hour or even 5 minutes again and I don’t think I could. I miss my mum from the bottom of my heart but to have her and lose her again…I think it would break my heart #grief #grieving #mourning

Colorwork can be subtle or loud 📣. Two years ago I designed a blasting loud sock pattern as a party game prize for a group of ESC besties 💚. It sums up my #showmeyourknits for the last 3 weeks: green, colorwork socks. So yay! 🧶 #knitsky #knitting #ESC

“It’s because of my identification with Robert Burns, with the people of Scotland for their dignity, for their independence, for their humanity, that i can see how we sing ‘we shall overco-ome” Doctor Maya Angelou on Robert Burns on the BBC. Truly moving documentary

@eweandply.bsky.social in the shop you were discussing a customer who needs patterns for jumpers on straight needles. I have this book “alpaca colour” by rowan yarns designed by Lisa Richardson. Let me know if you’d like to borrow it

My book on Dyspraxia has been printed!!! Dyspraxia is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects coordination and organisation, and is similar to Autism or ADHD!
I hope it can shed some light on this little known neurodivergence.

Having a bad #dyspraxia day Went to @eweandply.bsky.social to get my knitting fixed, came home confident on finishing last 2 rows. Decided to transfer to a smaller cable needle, ended up messing that up and now I want to cry. #knitting

This Christmas, I have just one wish for you:
Take a moment to really see the older people in your life.
Let them know they’re loved, valued, and never invisible.
Share a smile with an elder you don’t know.
Offer a warm holiday greeting.
Small gestures carry enormous power.
Love,
Lynda 🎄✨

Y’know I’m not usually proud of being British but sometimes you get headlines like this and I get a warm feeling inside

My partner asked to borrow my Cat Skull scissors.
I was very confused: “cat skull scissors?”
“Yeah! You know, the silver ones, with little designs on it.”
