🇺🇸🔥🇺🇸 A MUST-WATCH 🇺🇸🔥🇺🇸

Damn this is powerful stuff, especially as the #Epstein survivors share about what happened - or hasn't happened - with the #DOJ. This really floored me. Please do take a moment to bear witness.

🐸🧶🐸 Lookity look, the frog is ON!!

Thanks to #FinishOrFrogAlong, I was finally able to let go of this project that just wasn't calling to me anymore.

Nordic roots (Estonian, Germanic) -a culture of no waste and finishing what you start - can be helpful, but not always. This shawl had become a torment. Fun to plan, not fun to knit.

It's OK to frog. It's healthy to frog!

Picked out 2 skeins so far. Ideas explored all playing off this quasi-autumnal cream speckled yarn from HedgeHog. Maybe add this darkish gray, a gold or golden brown, a deep blue, or maybe a deep berry brown? Pop a mohair somewhere? It was hard to see in artificial light, and I'm not sure about the aqua tones on that speckled one.

🧶 Solid or speckles work, as long as high contrast - great for stash-busting

⚠️⚠️⚠️ Don't want to give your kid a polio vaccine?

Perhaps you don't know about the "iron lung" that patients had to live in 24/7, for weeks, months, a lifetime. A lot of folks don't know, for real.

Is that want you want? Because THIS - these mid-1950s photos - will be the consequence. No kidding. Had a friend who spent part of her childhood in one. Then leg braces.

"Sourced from the Dufurrena family’s Merino/Rambouillet flock, raised in the mountains and foothills of Northern Nevada. The Dufurrenas continue the Basque tradition of sheep ranching, producing exceptional fleece."

This maneuver is far beyond my comfort level, having only done it once and I screwed it up then. This project is best left for the bright light/mind of the morning hours.

I inherited a bunch of these 2 yarns. I don't normally care for knitting with 100% pure synthetics, but the need does arise for my wool-allergic friends.

Is anyone familiar with these yarns? Are they on the cheap end of the scale or...? How will it wear? Any insight will be gratefully received. Thank you!

I'm finding that two fingering weight strands held together on size US2 needles is the perfect combo. This one, just like the little chickies, is made out of all scrap yarn. I find making "softies" to be very relaxing, no size/fit issues involved.

Highly recommend Romi's MKALs. Great support via forums and videos. And, the designs always have clever new techniques and tips. Anyone interested in joining me? Here's the link:

🧶🐔🧶🐔🧶 Another Emotional Support Chicken!

Using scrap yarn, this is 1st one I've made of wool (v. acrylic). I must say it's a much more pleasant knitting experience - 2 strands fingering held together on US2 needles, so very tight, but wool gives some spring.

Still, my upper arms and shoulders hurt! It's OK, I'm knitting off anxiety, and it's a workout my muscles need.

I love me some BlueQ zip bags! Mine hold stitch markers and such.

Made of recycled feed sacks, melted down and rolled into fabric, then printed, cut and sewn.

Sturdy as hell, well priced, the zipper bags come in various sizes. They also make funny socks and dish towels. Available from #Amazon and the #BlueQ website.

Avoided it, ever since I started knitting again. The whole knit then purl skip stitch then purl the knit but leave on needle then go between then whaaat? All with a tapestry needle.

Proud to say a. I did it, and b. It really does look good. I love the way there is basically no edge, stitches just disappear into the air. Hmm, might be my new go-to.

Trying for one chart done daily. There are six, A through F. This is one of those times when it's helpful to have several WIPs going at once - I can switch back and forth.

Two strands of Rowan Fine Art variegated in pink-coral, and one strand of pink cashmere.

Also here is a picture of the woman it is for, and of the pattern. She wanted a bright color. Am I on the right path with this?

🧶🧶🧶 How did I not know this?!!

Per Norman at #NimbleNeedles on #YouTube, swatches can be marked for needle size by tying knots - in this case, seven knots for US7 needle. Because I NEVER remember.

Another way is to knit in the correct number as purl bumps right in the swatch. Great hack!

I always learn so much from Norman. Here he takes a deep dive into stitch and row gauge. He maths A LOT. If you are math-phobic, Norman makes it clear, step-by-step. His thinking changes the role of getting gauge - the swatch is still important, but not everything. So interesting!

Meet my new #WIP - #TheAspenWrap. This wrap (made one 15+ years ago, in storage now) was a fave. Cables grip the shoulders, and moss stitch part drapes nicely, longer than it might seem from these pix.

This gorgeous wool is from Norway, generously gifted to me. Have been waiting for the perfect match for it. I think this may be it!
