Testing a modification to the herding hens socks by Stone Knits to make stardew valley chickens! I essentially made the chickens more round and have picked up sock yarn in the right colors (beige, brown, black, blue, red and purple!)

how your eelmail finds me
Eels are critically endangered at this point. But there used to be huge numbers of them in the waters. How many?
In 1779, Thomas Carnan wrote that there was a river in Tweedale where so many eels came downstream every August that they "overthrow the people who go to catch them.
