100/100 What a great day to close out #100daysofknitting ! I spun almost a whole 4oz of Greyskull by spinning all morning and afternoon thanks to getting an unexpected ADBD. In the evening I finished the gusset and heel flap on #msbshallowerncupcake.

99/100 I started in on my Greyskull spin but didn’t photograph it. Instead, here’s my Halloween Cupcake sock now with 1/2 a gusset! #100daysofknitting #msbshalloweencupcake

98/100 The singles for Tuffboi are done a few days ahead of schedule. And I started the heel gusset on Halloween Cupcake. #100daysofknitting #tourdefleece #msbstuffboi #msbshhalloweencupcake

97/100 I got an unexpected day off when the AC at work broke, so I got a ton done today. I established the body of Lavarock + Blossom is at the point where I need to block it before continuing, so it was time to start sleeves! I also wove in the last 18 or so ends.

An AC-is-broken delayed opening at work meant I got some stolen time to weave in some more ends on #msbslavarockandblossom

96/100 Three bobbins for #tourdefleece done! I finished up the parallel drafted singles tonight, and then started in on the to-be-chain-plied part. This Hello Yarn top is such a dream to spin! After the spinning, I worked on my Halloween Cupcake sock, which is getting very close to turning the heel.

95/100 I had to work the late shift so Day 3 of #tourdefleece needed to be more portable than my Matchless! I took my spindle to work along with a bump of Yarn Jam’s Electric Forest. I haven’t done much spindle spinning but it was so much fun!

94/100 (Pic credit @schnookichu) 4 hours of #tourdefleece spinning in the books! Day 2 saw me finishing bobbin 2 of the non-chain-plied part, and getting a fair amount of the parallel draft part done. I’m loving this Hello Yarn fiber!

93/100 I kicked off #tourdefleece with spinning 1/3 of the non-chain-plied part of Tuffboi. Then I did a bit of work on L+B and stated the colorwork part of my popsicle socks. #100daysofknitting #msbstuffboi #msbslavarockandblossom #msbspopsicles

92/100 I plied Excitebike and OMG it’s even better than the sky-high expectations I’ve had for it ever since Santa left it under the tree for me. I also prepped Tuffboi for Tour de Fleece. I cast on some popsicle socks. And I did a few rows of L+B, and wove in a few ends. An excellent day!

91/100 A few rows of Lavarock + Blossom after getting the second shoulder on Joe Cool established. #100daysofknitting #msbslavarockandblossom

90/100 The back of the yoke is done and now I’ve moved on to the left front on Joe Cool. The green and blue parts were my favorite when I was spinning this year so I’m glad I’ll be able to really see them when I wear this. #100daysofknitting #msbsjoecool

89/100 Looks a lot like yesterday but there’s about 10 more rows or so on there. #100daysofknitting #msbsjoecool

88/100 A whole lotta Joe Cool and a tiny bit of Cupcake socks. #100daysofknitting #joecool

87/100 Hazlitt roars his approval of Lavarock + Blossom! Also, I got a ton done on Joe Cool. #100daysofknitting #hazlittsupercat #zwigjam #msbslavarockandblossom #msbsjoecool

86/100 94/100 Today was a big day! I was really sure Lavarock + Blossom was turning out too large (I’m using different yarn weight than the pattern calls for) but just as I was mentally moving on to a different project, I tried L+B on and it’s a miracle! It fits!

85/100 Billion Acre Woods is done! L reminded me how to do the sewn b/o in a fraction of the time, so I had time to finish the ends (most of which were woven in already) and add the bear tag.

84/100 Sewn bind-off is taking fooorrreeeeeevvvveeeerrrr. #100daysofknitting #msbsbillionacrewoods

83/100 Time to start the hem on Billion Acre Woods! #100daysofknitting #msbsbillionacrewoods

82/100 Second cuff done! Only the hem to go! #100daysofknitting #msbsbillionacrewoods

81/100 One cuff of Billion Acre Woods done at nearly midnight on a work night, posing with the contents of an excellent mail call — some future Halloween socks and a boffo braid of spinning fiber! #100daysofknitting #msbsbillionacrewoods

80/100 The Uncle Rocky socks are finished! I need another super portable project going, so I cast on some new self-striping socks. #100daysofknitting #msbsunclerocky #msbshalloweencupcake

79/100 Ispun a bunch of Excitebike, and did a bunch of Uncle Rocky. The second sock is done and the first is ripped back to the start to the toe to become the third sock, which is now about 1/2 through the colorwork. Dansby approves.

78/100 Uncle Rocky II’s colorwork is done! I have a few short rows to go and grafting the toe, and then Second Sock is done! (Then First Sock has to be ripped out and redone but still! Progress!) #100daysofknitting #msbsunclerocky

Hoxie says “Hoxiebears are NOT teddy bears!” #hoxiesupercat

77/100 SO much spinning today, putting eEeeEee the e-spinner through his paces! Pictured: an oddball impulse-purchased-at-Rhinebeck batt that I spun like a giant rolag (thanks to watching Jillian Moreno’s “12 Ways to Spin a Batt” yesterday).

76/100 Another sock, another heel! Not pictured, a ton of spinning. I finished the singles for my chain plying practice; the end of it was pretty bad because I got sucked into watching my first ever Godzilla movie. #100daysofknitting #msbsunclerocky

75/100 Added some stripes to Uncle Rocky Sock 2 and got the ends woven in on Billion Acre Woods’ second sleeve. #100daysofknitting. #msbsbillionacrewoods #msbsunclerocky

74/100 I finished the 1x1 ribbing and am now on to the 2x2 portion of sock number 2. #100daysofknitting #msbsunclerocky

73/100 I finished* the first of the Uncle Rocky socks and started on the second. Not pictured, more than 3 hours of very slow spinning on a chain plying project. *Finished for now, that is; it’s too short so I’ll probably need to rip out the entire raccoon part and redo it.

72/100 Got a big ol’ sample of Charmrock experiment swatch done at Game Night. I am loving the targhee/bamboo/silk. #100daysofknitting

71/100 79/100 Billion Acre Woods sleeve and getting Uncle Rocky past the colorwork. #100daysofknitting #msbsbillionacrewoods #msbsunclerocky

70/100 A few more stripes on Billion Acre Woods’s second sleeve. #100daysofknitting #msbsbillionacrewoods

69/100 Uncle Rocky has eyes and ears! #100daysofknitting #msbsunclerocky

68/100 Uncle Rocky’s socks took a trip to the salon. I worked on them in the car while waiting and then under the dryer hood. That meant it was time to start the colorwork after dinner! Hoxie very helpfully sat atop the patterns to make it easier. Thanks, buddy.

67/100 Billion Acre Woods took a trip to work. #100daysofknitting #msbsbillionacrewoods

66/100 Getting the second sleeve going on Billion Acre Woods. #100daysofknitting #msbsbillionacrewoods

65/100 I spent the evening working on the first sleeve on Billion Acre Woods, getting it to the point where I’m holding it until blocking it. I’m sure this puppy is gonna grow a ton.

64/100 It was a big day for Uncle Rocky Socks! I had held back from working on it so that I’d have sufficient ribbing to do while waiting for two doctors appointments. I finished the ribbing *exactly* when the second doctor came in to see me. Nailed it!

63/100 A multi-project day — Uncle Rocky socks during a video training, Billion Acre Woods sleeve, plying a 1/2 Nest advent, and then some rows on Lavarock + Blossom. #100daysofknitting #msbslavarockandblossom

62/100 Billion Acre Woods’ sleeve is zipping along. I also did some e-spinning practice. #100daysofknitting #msbsbillionacrewoods

61/100 It’s the Leaning Tower of Uncle Rocky Sock! Also, hellooooooo spinning from the couch thanks to a new e-spinner! #100daysofknitting #msbsunclerocky

60/100 I did some more Uncle Rocky sock before my late shift and while eating lunch in my car. I’m thinking the sockboi life is going to be great! During my dinner break and at home after the late shift I worked on the sleeves for Billion Acre Woods.

59/100 And that’s a wrap on an amazing vacation of spinning and knitting! Today I finished the singles for my Nest advents. Then I really focused on my Uncle Rocky socks; it’s so much fun! In the interest of not destroying my hands using the tiny needles, I also did a bunch of Lavarock + Blossom.

58/100 My Sockboi days have begun! I did some Nest advent spinning, some Joe Cool knitting (getting it past where it was when I ripped it all out), and a good handful of rows on L+B.

57/100 I did more test spinning of targhee/bamboo/silk as experiments for my future SQ spin. Buoyed by a big discussion on our walk today about how various upcoming projects vibe, I dropped everything to swatch Pink Mink, a dreamy Birdie DK colorwork sweater.

56/100 I did some spinning and some Joe Cool (including ripping it entirely back to casting on) but the story for me today is laying out Lavarock + Blossom to see if the striped body was good or clown vomit. The answer is good AND clown vomit! #100daysofknitting #msbslavarockandblossom

55/100 I spun my first chain ply yarn today! I also put some more rows in on Lavarock + Blossom and Joe Cool. #100daysofknitting #msbslavarockandblossom #msbsjoecool

I’m so pleased with my first 3-ply/3-ways spin! This fiber was from Hidden Pond Fibers and was part of La Mercerie’s Year of Fber 2025. It’s unbelievably soft and I’m very pleased with the finished result. I loved the parallel drafting and will absolutely do it again.

54/100 Now that’s a vacation day! I finished spinning the funky green Gritty Knits advent, then embarked on some experimental Nest advent spins to test how to do my Nest SQ later this year. I got El Cutie onto 40” needles thanks to the big last increase round.
