Probably autistic, vaguely queer-ish, cool with being she/her, a little bit furry. Come to my liminal space, we have cookies and fibre arts.
Last saved celeb is your therapist

Eclipse got clouded out. Instead I saw these llamas.

Garter-tab cast-ons means every row takes longer than the previous one. Still not bored 78 rows in. 🧶

One time in the lab I couldn't remember what disposable transfer pipettes were called, and told a coworker I needed to go to the storeroom and get more sucky-squirties.

Kashirukuru is somewhat variable in weight but not as batshit crazy as Kuromo. It's soft and warm and it's going to be super nice to wear. 🧶

I don't smoke but cigar boxes are my favourite kind of repurposable junk. 🧶

Stripes in the forecast. This is Kashirukuru, one of Noro's more... sedate? offerings, and the pattern is Olga Fahim's Flying Fox shawl. 🧶

Blocking. I was weirded out by the colours but it's growing on me. The yarn is Noro Koromo, colourway #8. The pattern is available on Ravelry as "Santorini Kerchief" by Susan Mills Knits. 🧶

If I can knit with this Noro ridiculousness, my own ugly chunky homespun art yarn of varying thickness and clashy colours will also be perfectly usable. 🧶

I've been having fun making mitts and socks, but my arthritic left thumb is registering a complaint about the twisted German long-tail cast-ons (see also: that XKCD strip about things you can sing to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles theme). Time to knit something flat. 🧶

Tired: hot wings

Inspired: hot legs

Seriously, chicken legs are good cheap protein. Get them before the hipsters make them trendy.

Repost with four of your hobbies.

I garden, ferment, knit, and am dabbling in spinning for the first time. 🧶

I vastly overestimated how much sauerkraut would come from one cabbage.

Left: smoked paprika flavour
Right: seeds flavour (caraway, dill, mustard, and celery)

I made mitts out of my favourite rustic yarn! Just in time for a 90-degree heatwave. :P

I made a mitt! Now I need to make another mitt. But I'll have them by the time it gets cold.
August 11, 2023 at 3:08 PM
I have made one (1) mitt.

Made chokeberry jam and there's more on the way as soon as they ripen up.
