Two skeins in one day! This one is another gifted fiber that I hadn't worked with before but now I love: halfbred sheep. It's 245 yards and is so soft and squishy :) 🧶

I made a case for my crochet hooks and circular knitting needles!

The 🧶 is hand spun Jacob wool and rayonized bamboo plied together :)

Pointillism is fun but also this is 6 hours of work lmao

Hey did you know you can spin the wool meant for needle felting that they have at craft stores? Well, you CAN do it, but I wouldn't recommend it 😂

First time trying to spin a fractal 🧶 and I think it went well??

These are the two pieces that started it all that I did back in 2018. I highly recommend doing stuff like this, even if you don't share it with anyone.

It's done!!! I don't know if I'll ever do a homespun sweater again, but I love how it looks and it makes me so happy to see my husband wearing it :)

Just another 2" of stockinette before the ribbing! Then it's just the neckline and it'll be done :) Definitely going to finish it this week.

There is something so satisfying about knitting with hand spun yarn 🧶

To get them to physically line up what I ended up doing is a bit of a zigzag pattern with the days chronologically. Each row is actually a strip 4 wide where each day is two rows. I attached the strips as I went by slip stitching into the previous strip at the end of rows if that makes any sense lol

Finished my year-long symptom tapestry! It's really interesting looking at it and seeing where each life event shows up. (green is good day, purple is bad pain, blue is bad brain, grey is sick, and coral is flare)
