I am unashamed about my
feelings for Murley the Loth-Cat.
I don’t have pets for many reasons, but I love Murley.
I have to be careful at the office, though. When Murley is on my iPad, coworkers want to hang out at my desk. 🤨

A sock knitter could hack this and make it.
Even if they charge you $200, you’d be getting something handmade by an artist.
Hell, I might try and make one my damn self…🤔

If you really want to pay over $200 for a rib-knitted pouch thing to carry your phone in, why not just commission a handknitter to make one for you instead of giving that money to Apple?
I mean, I enjoy the art of Miyake’s fashions, but…no.
Not just no, but oh Hell no. 😂

The CEO of #Starbucks could take a substantial paycut and use some of that money to pay the Baristas fairly…and *still* be a gahtdamn BILLIONAIRE.
#starbucksstrike
#starbucksstrike
Starbucks’ CEO makes 6,666x what the average @sbworkersunited.org barista does. It would take less than one day of sales to finalize a fair contract.
Baristas at Starbucks corporate stores nationwide are on strike to fight this corporate greed and get the fair contract they deserve.

Another Tiny Tassels shawlette is fini.
This is made with what’s left of some Collinette Jitterbug I bought almost 20 yrs ago for a project I fell out of love with and frogged. Made a few other things and had enough left for this. Tassels also leftover Jitterbug.

Q: Where do you keep all your DPNs?
Me: Though I majored in Theater, being all Eclectic ‘n’ shite, I took all kinds of classes.
One of them was *Ancient Egyptian Language and Literature*. Sis gave me a lovely cartouche necklace tucked inside this cool pencil tin.

MadTosh Sockweight yarn - Colorway: Electric Rainbow - Size 7 needles.
Years ago, this was going to be socks. Now, it’s going to be a camisole.
I don’t usually do pastels and never wear greens and yellows, but I like this. It looks like a dystopian Springtime. #knitsky #myofficeisfreezingcold

I’ve been shopping for warm weather clothes…in my closet.
Found a secondhand men’s white tuxedo shirt I purchased 30+yrs ago at a NYC store called Renaissance.
Of course the sleeves were too short so I cut them off leaving abt 1/2” to fold under and stitch.

Sock mending sometimes involves re-knitting.
Had to cut the toes out of these socks that partially felted, but not enough where I couldn’t frog the stitches.
Ripped down until I had stitches I could re-mount, and then reknitted.

The W(nba) has me having so much fun watching basketball that I’m watching teams play that I have no ties to.
Peep the center court art at the Atlanta Dream’s court:

Love to see it.

Found some balls of yarn in my stash. No label, but they were in a bag of leftover Colinette “Jitterbug”.
It was bought maybe 15 years ago for a project I knitted, hated, and frogged.
It wanted to be a camisole, and so it is.

I used to make myself little talisman bags. I’d put shells, wee sachets of dried rose petals, tiny milagros in them.
Seeing SINNERS, and the general state of fuckery that is the world these days, has made me want to wear one again.
This waxed linen pouch is 25+ yrs old.

What do you do when your boss is getting rid of corporate swag?
You look through your patch collection, and end up with a bag you’ll actually wear ‘cause your job isn’t cool enough that you’d publicly wear anything with their logo on it. Ever.

Anyone else wrapped their devices back in The Day?
The company was called i-A-Peel.
Peel and stick paper w/a side to print on iPod/Nook/Kindle/iPad/laptops. On the unprinted side there were guidelines and tabs so placement was always perfect.
I used a Shepard Fairey #OBEY wallpaper on this iPod.

I loved —and still love—Peter Max’s art.
This book has been in my library for *decades* because I wanted that cute t-shirt. Never made it because I fell in love with knitting. Might be tempted to jump back into crochet and take a swing at it.
