1/? Two sentence recaps of a bunch of books I read lately. 💙📚💙 Lula Dean’s Library of Little Banned Books: hits too close to home. DNF. Fairy Godmother, Inc: a clever retelling I haven’t seen before. 4/5

Do I need a new project? No Am I going to embroider a backpack anyway? Yes My November sweater might be finishing the Totoro colorwork 😂

“Hello, im new in this group, what is the first step to start home schooling?” Learn how to research. If you can’t do basic research please don’t homeschool your kid.

PUT THE HOCKEY IN MY EYE HOLES

#nakniswemo is coming. Are we doing it this year? I’m doing it. Need to finish up my wips so I can devote November to the sweater #knitting 🧶

I demand an apology for that Lilo & Stitch “remake”

We MIGHT resubscribe to Disney+ if Kimmel isn’t on a leash. Free speech or we’re out. And they’re lucky, if ESPN didn’t carry hockey we wouldn’t even consider resubscribing.

Apparently the rapture is happening on Wednesday and now I'm like should I even bother folding my laundry if I'm going to be fighting to avoid eternal damnation on Thursday?

fuck micro-crochet

Modifying knitting patterns to include Totoro. This is Flower Power by Anna Johanna

Lost my favorite first aid kit 😭

when did boo baskets become a thing you already get candy, why do you need more crap

Can the scout store keep regular hours please? Sometimes it closes at 5, other times 3. Or maybe noon. Or oops! Not open Friday at all! And the only place to find the hours is on Google Maps or by going there. It’s no wonder people are frustrated with council.

Sandwich time! Did this one during a homeschool event and got lots of stares 😂 #quilting #quiltsandwich #quilt #quiltwip

I am a complicated parrot!

Furry sir, you’re not helping. Put the murder mittens away.

I’m usually a SciShow fan but, dude, Hank. There are SO MANY scientists who do fiber arts. You couldn’t get any of them to do a guest spot? youtu.be/wx1orbc-7MQ?...

The yarn is unraveled, washed, dried, and re-caked. Now what do I do with it? It’s 50/50 wool/cotton and pills like a mofo. I don’t like it. Try steeking? If I screw up nothing of value is lost. It’s DK weight in navy, blue, and gray.

so I’m about to murder the printer

If we had this in Texas it would take less than an hour to get from Dallas to Austin. Less than an hour to Houston! Under 60 minutes! And you could do whatever you wanted the whole time!

Okay seriously wtf migraines

Taking apart a Weekender is almost as annoying as wearing a Weekender 🧶

It worked! Go me! #quilting

Maybe I should make a non-Euclidean quilt 3010tangents.wordpress.com/2014/11/14/n...

Review: Night Zookeeper – A Great Idea, Poorly Done When I first heard about Night Zookeeper, I was intrigued. A gamified approach to language arts? A platform that could actually get kids excited about writing? As a homeschooling parent, that sounded almost too good to be true. At first, I…

@tkingfisher.com and @andrewmarkhenry.bsky.social must have collaborated on their latest works. The religion in Hemlock and Silver feels authentic and human. Don’t break this head cannon, they totally traded notes.

Update: I binned the yarn. It was therapeutic.

Special assistant cat says it’s a good wip 🧶

This is one of my favorite accounts. Very satisfying.

Public service announcement: don’t try and count stitches when you have a fever 🧶

Sit in my way and you will become a table 🧶

Nobody needs a 33 page sweater pattern! WTF Purl Soho? Can i get a printer friendly person with no photos?

My neighbors need to trim their dang trees so they stop falling over during thunderstorms. Bradford pear should be eradicated

dammit I’ve been knitting too much and my hand hurts 😑

Happy first day of school. All your pencil are belong to cat. #homeschool #secularhomeschool #homeschooling

If you want to believe it, check it twice ::clap clap:: If you want to believe it, check it twice ::clap clap:: Doesn’t matter if it’s awful Doesn’t matter if it’s nice If it confirms your bias, check it twice! ::clap clap::

Hey GPS makers - I want an option for “the last five miles”. I know how to get out of my city, it’s the last bit I need help with

NOT HELPING #caturday

This thread - I can tell you horror stories about my cramps in high school

Public school is back in session, it is the time of the homeschoolers. All is right in the world.

Quote this with a book you read way too young that explains why you are the way you are. Hey did you know you can kill god? Lyra did it in His Dark Materials. It had a polar bear on the front so my Christian parents didn’t suspect anything

We claim burritos! They’re vaguely football shaped, we can work with that

Do I like Taylor swift? Eh. Do I like following the hype? YES.

I think I’m going to take apart a sweater at the next homeschool meetup, just to watch people freak out. (The sweater is ill fitting and needs to be redone) #fibersky 🧶

My kids are still asking the meaning of words, they just do it when I’m driving

I have been marked for death. If this is my last message, you know who did it. #caturday

Why would I knit something new when I can make the same thing again? More Summer Sorrels! 🧶

If you’re not using spray starch when piecing quilts you’re missing out! Why wasn’t I using this stuff before, it’s ✨amazing✨

this is maybe trite at this point but it is in your interest to find ways to create things. basically everyone wants you to be consuming nonstop. making stuff, from cooking to photography or whatever, can help you feel more in control. doesn’t even have to be something you share with other people

Why are there three different ways to icord cast on. They should have three different names, not the same name
