🧶 #showmeyourknits is show me your wips this week… I have 4 projects on the go: a stitch sampler Mkal x 2 (using different yarns but similar colourways as a bit of a study of fiber), the Emmeline sweater, and a wee bit of Seeking Solace cowl. #knitsky

Dear Canada: tomorrow is Election Day. This is Mark Carney. Hint, hint.

I have been diligently boycotting US products all year. There are a few things we are just having to go without but these seem like easy wins for Canadian companies to fill the void: paper coffee filters, panko bread crumbs and those junky water flavouring drops (like Mio). #never51 #elbowsup

Actual photo of the long road back to fitness. 😝

I wish I’d spent less time on the coach these last 7 months.

I care about climate, fairness, and justice.
Those are NDP and Green values — and Liberal values too.
Pierre Poilievre threatens all of it.
Please, let's unite behind Mark Carney before it’s too late.
