Mom and I did a little retail therapy at a local yarn store today. It's been a rough week and we both needed this. #indigopurls #yarn #lys #jorstad #fiberarts #knitting

I'm sorry for raining on this parade, but the "transgender mice" talking point is bullshit, but not because someone mistook "transgenic" for "transgender."
The blog post that kicked it off (from a partisan bullshit website) listed a number of papers testing the effects of sex hormones on animals.

Does blocking help relax wool/nylon blend yarn? The pattern calls for a little gusset and I used a size 3 needle for the colorwork. Toe and heel we're size 0. It does for my foot but only barely. I already reworked the whole thing after it didn't fit at all. I'll block it tonight 😬 #knitting #socks

There's a 3 hour late start at school today, thanks to snow and ice, so it's fitting I just finished a hat from this yummy bulky yarn @olystretch.bsky.social gave me. I love the way it turned out.b Hopefully the small imperfections will block out. #knitting #hat #handdyed

I got the pattern so I can show my mom how to knit this. I made the size small today and I'll make size large another day so she can try them on and decide which style she likes more. It was a fun and easy project. Definitely great for new knitters #sophiescarf #petiteknit #knitting

I thought about reverse engineering the Sophie scarf, but my mom really loves the pattern and I think we're going to work on it together, so I ended up buying it. It looks like a perfect quick project for knitters of all levels. #knitting #sophiescarf

I always try to read diversely by selecting books by authors who don't look like me, and I especially try to focus my reading on Black authors in February. With current events, I have failed to plan and don't have any books queued up. I would love recommendations so I can correct this. #books

OMG 😍 she's a knitter!
Thank you, I’ll have plenty! I used to crochet a long time ago and just started knitting a few weeks ago.
It’s been a great way to stop doomscrolling and reflect 😌
I’ve finished a Sophie scarf and have started a sweater. (I’m waiting for more purple yarn & am casting on a new cardigan as I wait 🫣)

Donold is blaming a plane crash that killed 67 people on “DEI” with zero evidence.
He is attempting to use racism to deflect from the fact it is HIS fault. He had just removed 100 FAA senior officials.
It’s been 11 days and there are 67 bodies in the Potomac in Washington DC because of him.

I blame Trump for the plane crash. He's blaming Obama, Biden, and DEI. My question is, how did his hiring freeze affect the FAA? Did he also increase military presence in DC? My dad's a former army helicopter pilot, I might pick his brain.

CARTOON OF THE DAY
First time knitting with Malabrigo Rios yarn. It is so soft and silky! I'm looking forward to seeing the final product, a colorwork hat using the pattern Saguaro from Knitting the National Parks, also featuring hand dyed yarn from a local artist, Rowen Green Fiber Arts. #knitting #hat

Thinking of making a colorwork sock design. I always make them too tight, I need to probably go up to a size 3 or 4 needle with colorwork. I usually use a 0 with socks. Any tips? I sketched this up as a design element. Back to the drawing board or keep it? #socks #knitting
