Behold. The first of our yellow pear tomatoes. I had to capture every side. These are a small heirloom type. We know from last year yellow tomatoes are so sweet & mild. She's awaiting her fate at dinner. #gardening #kcagg #heirloom #yellowpear

I made these three coasters for my mother using cotton yarn. The pattern is called Sunrise coaster by TL Yarn Crafts. I just watch this tutorial over and over while making each one. I'm pleased with how they came out. youtu.be/5OkdVPRWSn0?...

I have no idea what to do with this incredibly long chain of crochet. I am I'll probably frog it and practice other stitches.

Today I crocheted for the first time. I made this chain. It's terrible but I get the concept now.

This might be desperation speaking, but I'm gonna try!
Anyone in #crochet or #knitting have ONE skein of: Big Twist Vivid (DK/3) Blu/Purp? 🙏 Was nearly done with a throw...3 yrs ago...but I mathed wrong. I had 11 skeins, not 12. 😂 Been in WIP ever since. 💔
If I have to frog it... 😩 #yarnproblems

My child collects clocks. They have no less than 20 in their small bedroom. They pretty much all make noise. It's a symphony of minutes passing as I wake them for school on a Monday before the sun comes up.

I was happily using my 80 peg small gauge loom and a silky acrylic yarn. Was going slow but ok until I did what I believe is called "dropped a stitch." I frogged it and will use this yarn when I'm better on this loom. #loomknitting #knitsky

This would lead to death of millions. This cannot be allowed to happen. We are not bodies for the rich mens pockets.
House Republicans want to cut Medicaid by $800 billion, nearly the entire program’s budget.

finished this hurdle stitch in chunky acrylic yarn today. The color is "primary", which cracks me up because while I love green, it's not a primary color. I forgot to measure but it's my arm span. Played yarn chicken and won. #knitsky #loomknitting
