Krampus is a folkloric goat demon with a switch and chains and carries away naughty children on the feast of St Nicholas. Very pleased to have finished my Krampus sweater! 🧶

Bought this fully assuming it would be gross but you know what? It’s actually pretty good. Almond butter and apple bits.

looking at patterns like this - my book of latvian mittens is one-size-fits-all but surely this is too narrow for some people?

I also asked what everyone wants to know about federal funds; city staff are incredibly measured about it.
![“It doesn’t seem like there’s much that is defined currently,” Menefee says. “We’ve won over $100 million in federal grant awards in the past handful of years, and that puts us in a great position for completing a lot of necessary construction for Missoula. [Though] we are concerned about the status of grants. Luckily, we have grant agreements in place for pretty much all of our federally awarded projects, and so that is likely to put those grants in sort of a safer state. But we can’t say anything for sure because things are still up in the air.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:wpnkb3mldvbzbu7j5k3siuqf/bafkreib3beajn6dklorkiylsf7dzayol6n2lgd5fa22u7nc2voqqwfj64a@jpeg)
