I just want to make things but the world is on fire.
Whiskey Sour shirt finally off the 🧶 knitting needles and blocked! I am so slow at any kind of moss-stitch, it's agonizing!

This pottery project ended up being a huge experiment: a new brand of underglaze, more fine lines, a clay body I thought would fire more red than brown. I still like it a lot but I'm itching to do it again with everything I learned.

A scrap busting Doodle cowl in progress. 🧶knitting this has been so refreshing after solid color stockinette projects.

The feeling when you're almost done with a 🧶 knitting project and then you get to the next page of the pattern and it's just miles of I-cord

What I thought was a stash buster turned out to be a behemoth of a knitting 🧶 project. Between dyeing the wool and running out of yarn this thing just kept growing (despite my gauge swatch being perfect).

I decided it would be really cool to 🧶knit something I've never done before and then proceeded to choose the most intricate, small gauge dress pattern. I could have chosen socks...

It's been an anxious few weeks in my household, and I always gravitate towards knitting to keep my hands busy. The result is that I've 🧶 knit half a sweater in under a week. (Norma Sweater by My Favourite Things Knitwear)

The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right. The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter. Everyone must choose which side they’re on. Now.

“Silence is not an option right now,” said one advisory board member, Daniel Dawes, “I try to use the term unprecedented sparingly, but I believe this is an unprecedented moment. There will be dire consequences if they do not restore this information and it may not come back if we do not speak out.”

One thing I love about storygraph (besides the fact that it's not owned by Amazon) are the little monthly wrap ups they give you 💙📚

The CDC public facing data portals (and other gov websites) were scrubbed of data today, especially for LGBT issues. This is straight out of the fascist playbook.

Not lost on me that it's nonprofit tech,

, showing up & actually working in the midst of the LA fires (donate to them!) Meanwhile platforms fail to surface key news, vital info is paywalled... As I've been saying, we need a new tech paradigm, yesterday!

Around mid November each year I decide I need a new sweater to get me through the holiday season and ignore all other projects until my eyes are crossed and my hands cramp. This year, it was the book club cardigan by Sari Nordlund. 🧶
