African gray hornbill for this month’s #birdwhisperer. I may still be crying but at least there’s always birds

That's is, uh, pretty terrible. Now the question is do I take another run at it or hope that aggressive blocking will save my bacon

So, I got impatient with practicing but I'll take it! I will say, learning to knit continental between the last time I tried colorwork and this time sure did help with tangling since I could tension in both hands

The good news is that I've finally gotten a little smarter and am attempting to relearn how to color on a much smaller scale (also, decided to ignore instructions and am doing stranded instead of intarsia for this bit- the contrast stitches are so brief I don't know why it wants me to bobbin)

I did actually start this earlier this month but only managed the basic composition. So, rushed through the rest of it (or, “all of it”) today. Well done self, you tried. Happy ten years, #birdwhisperer!

One of Simone's favorite treats is drinking from the tap. So you'd think having the faucets dripping last night would've been great for her. Alas, she is too dumb and instead kept sitting on the counter and yelling at me to turn on the sink that's running.

I shoved her under the blanket because she was being too clingy. Fully expected her to immediately get back to climbing all over me but instead has been enjoying her babushka time
