Latest progress from this past weekend on the project being referred to as "trees in space" at this point. Hoping to have that 4th tree finished next session. And then, onto some specialty stitches! AND NO MORE TREES!

Another mob of goblins has come and gone for the year! Hope everyone had a safe and happy Halloween! (yes, we're "that house" who hands out full size candy bars, since about 2004)

Community challenge redeemed to #crochet earlier this month - Finished last week but forgot to post: behold my trapezoidal placemat! Clearly missed the occasional stitch on a turn... We return to our regularly scheduled #TwitchStitch with my Chatelaine in a few hours, swing on by and say hi!

Making progress on my Saturday #TwitchStitch - more/different trees to work on, but at least I appear to have moved on from all that teal!

Sept's weeknight on-stream project, courtesy of a community challenge - #crochet coaster-turned-napkin, which is on its way to napkin-turned-placemat...and will probably end up a small table runner, as I plan to use up all the yarn for this project. Chatelaine #TwitchStitch coming on Saturday tho!

Weeknight #TwitchStitch this month is detouring for some yarnplay. Community Challenge is being redeemed - folks wanted me to #crochet. Punchline - I don't know how to crochet, but can RTFM. Many thanks for the co-parenting/coaching efforts from chat last night with my coaster-turned-placemat!

I spent nearly 4 hours backstitching leaves in a tree during yesterday's #TwitchStitch. Can you tell from my potato photo? Yeah, me neither... BUT I only have 1 tree left so I've got that going for me.

Wrapped up June's #CrossStitch project at 52%! The big blocks of color are quite soothing to stitch for a change, even if the project will be fairly large once finished (14 inches square, 2 over 1 on 18ct Floba)

Been a bit since I shared my Saturday #TwitchStitch. Doesn't look like much progress for 3'ish streams, but there's eyelets around most of the ferns now. I'm really enjoying this project but I'm ready to move on from teal...

Joined my current dept after 10-15 years in #cybersecurity. Got pinged by my org's admin this week - link to homegrown security 101 that covers basic topics such as zero trust, security pillars, port scans, etc. Dude, I'm not the target audience for this, I promise. Spin the wheel again, please.

According to my urgent care visit yesterday, I've been incubating a sinus/respiratory infection with a low-grade fever this past week (whee?). Hubby got me "chewy juice" at the grocery, as part of my recovery regimen. He's #TeamNoPulp, which are you?
