No Kings Rally in New Haven CT. Picture does not reflect the thousands who were there! It was awesome and quite a diverse crowd, lots of younger people this time. #nokings

Heading off soon to join my son and his wife at No Kings protest in New Haven CT where I will debut my Melt the Ice hat! Meanwhile here’s a WIP turned FO yesterday 😁 #knitsky #bskyknits #sockknitting #loveknitting #handknit

The number one rule for No Kings 3 tomorrow is DO NOT INTERACT WITH COUNTER PROTESTERS! Do not talk, do not argue, do not react to their words, their single-finger salute, or their rolling coal. DO NOT ENGAGE!!!! You safety team is ready to deal with any negative people.

#wipwednesday today! Active on my needles clockwise from top left: Field Sweater, Ebbs and Flows Scarf, Hazel Shorty Socks and Oslo Hat. The joy of knitting is keeping me sane! #bskyknits #knitsky #knitting

It’s Show Me Your Greens on #showmeyourknits this week! I’m working on this nice olivey green Field Sweater by Camilla Vad right now. #knitting #bskyknits

My attention span has kept me mostly knitting socks so far this year. Here are two pairs of Hazel Shorties just finished, the green knit incorrectly by knitters error but still nice, the pink the way they are intended to look! #knitting #knitsky #bskyknits #handknit #loveknitting

Wow.

Jackpot at the thrift store! Four quality knitting books for three dollars! Dozens of great patterns and tons of inspiration. #knitting #bskyknits #knitsky

First of three Melt the ICE resistance hats finished! The pattern by Paul Neary @Yarn_Cult is modeled on resistance hats worn by Norwegians during Nazi occupation until they were outlawed by the nazis. #knitsky #bskyknits

The news is so depressing and knitting helps keep my spirits up. Just finished another cosy pair of socks and started the first of three Melt the ICE hats to wear to cold weather protests and support the people of Minneapolis and the immigrant community. Pattern by Paul Neary #knitsky

Love shorty socks as a way to get a second pair of socks from one 100 gram skein of sock yarn. Just finished this pair from @thishandmadelife ‘s pattern Simply Sporty Shorties #knitsky #bskyknits #knitting #handknit #loveknitting

My God, what has this country become??

Last cast-on of 2025 and first finish of 2026! A pretty basic beanie from Knots of Love the Lazy Traveler Beanie. This meant to be a charity pattern so it will be given away. Knit in Lion Brand Wool-Ease. #knit #knitsky #bskyknits #knitting

Last of the Christmas knitting! These are a pair of Christmas socks I made for my husband. Its a great free pattern from Cygnet Yarns Ltd. I chose to only do the colorwork on the legs and skip it on the feet. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays Bluesky! #knitting #knitsky #handknit #bskyknits

Christmas socks knit up from a pattern by Grey Owl Knits called vintage Christmas Bauble Socks. I loved knitting them and will be wearing them on Christmas Eve! #knitting #knitsky #knitter #handknit #bskyknits #loveknitting

My final gnome for the Year of Gnomes kal 2025 is Gnectar from Sarah Schira’s book The Gnomes of Grimblewood. #knit #knitting #knitsky #knitter #handknit #bskyknits #loveknitting

It’s close to the end of the Year of Gnomes kal 2025. Gnoel is my November gnome and the cutest yet! Ready for the holidays! #knitting #knitsky #bskyknits #handknit #loveknitting #knitter

Recreated my childhood Christmas stocking for my grand-niece per my brother’s request. This was a vintage Bernat pattern that I found online years ago when I wanted to knit one for my grandson and his sister. My old stocking on the right, the new one on the left #knitting #knitsky #bskyknits

Well now I can post my October gnome! This is Gnettle the pumpkin witch gnome which was a mystery kal by Sarah Schira. I modified her to add arms because she needed them to mix her cauldron and hold her broomstick lol! #knitting #knit #knitsky #bskyknits #loveknitting #knitter

I finished a hat! This is the Oslo Hat by Petite Knit. Three layers of knitting over the ears to stay warm on the coldest days. And fits right in with the Show Me Your Knits prompt of hats this week.

Practicing our constitutional right to peaceful assembly and free speech in Killingly Connecticut. Over 40 No Kings protests taking place in this state today! Twice the turnout of No Kings 1 at this one! We were a real quiet bunch of terrorists 🤣

A newly finished pair of socks is whats new. Collection of Columns pattern by Nancy Wheeler. I do love knitting socks! #knitting #knitsky #knit #bskyknits #loveknitting

I finished a thing. The Gingko Shoulderette Shawl by Maggie Magali, a free pattern on Ravelry. If you’re comfortable with lace charts its a great pattern, quick and easy! #knitsky #bskyknits #knitting #knitter #loveknitting #justknitting #handknit

August Gnome, finished yesterday once again in the nick of time. This is Gnoddy, from Sarah Schira’s book The Gnomes of Grimblewood, in his natural green habitat. #knitsky #loveknitting #knit #bskyknits #knitting

Martha Raditz is really disgusting me with her interview with Governor Moore. She is clearly pushing against him in a way I’ve never seen her with any Repub or Trump minion! This is how the MSM is failing our country!

Still knitting Gnomes for Sarah Schira’s Year of Gnomes 2025 KAL. My August edition is Gnome de Plume! Ready for autumn! #knit #knitting #knitsky #bskyknits #loveknitting

Finished a pair of socks, the Elven Woods Socks by Olivia Villarreal using leftover Berroco Vintage Sock yarn. #knitting #knitsky #bskyknits #knitter #handknit #loveknitting

I will be satisfied when they vote her out and don’t replace her with someone equally devoid of ethics and a soul.

My newest FO and my one summerknit of 2025! The Riptide Tee by Jennifer Shields Toland. It’s a great pattern, so easy to follow with great results. I used KnitPicks Shine in colorway Hydrangea. #knitting #bskyknits #showmeyourknitting

July gnome for Sarah Schira’s Year of Gnomes 2025 kal is finished! Meet Gnocchi from Sarah’s pattern Make Gnomes Mistake knit mostly with leftover Rauma Finullgarn. #knitting #knitsky

A new FO, my 50th wedding anniversary socks, the pattern is Trident Socks by Very Busy Monkey. A pleasure to knit and they will be a pleasure to wear when the chilly weather returns! #knitting #showmeyourknits #knitsky

Socks socks socks! The perfect summer knitting projects for cozy toes in winter. Francesca Socks by Twinset and Purl off the needles and blocked

Awesome No Kings protest in little Killingly Connecticut on a cold rainy day. Great turnout and lots of support from autos passing. With a few middle fingers, f*** yous and one coaling by Maga babies of course!

I don’t think I posted my June gnome for Sarah Schira‘s Year of Gnomes KAL, so I present: Gnando the Magnificent! My favorite one yet! #loveknitting #knitting

Finished Fjolla sweater (design by Isabell Kraemer) knit in Cascade 200 Heathers. I’d been working on this since February. #knitting #bskknitting #showmeyourknits

#showmeyourknits wants to see what’s on your needles! I’m actually almost caught up my wips. Finishing up my Fjolla sweater by Isabel Kraemer then ready to cast on all the things! #knitting

A matching pair of mitts and a neck scarf! Patterns by Jennifer Shields Toland. In a time of confusion and upset knitting is my happy place, a source of calm in the maelstrom

Newest finished knits: a pair of socks for my husband, pattern is Collection of Columns by @knitsiphappy.bsky.social and Riptide Scarf by @Jennifer Shiels Toland

Protesting for due process! The America I grew up in did not disappear people to foreign gulags! In Tampa Florida this time

On my way to protest in Tampa! Far from home but I'll be among like minded patriots. No kings!

Our @clinthendler.bsky.social was in New Haven, Connecticut, at the town green and captured this short video showing the stream of people at the #HandsOff rally there—despite the patchy weather.
