I knit myself up a quick spooky season hat 🧶🦇🕷️🏚️

I think these socks turned out nice. Still not convinced I'm a sock knitter, tho. I'm going to try a doodle pair next, see if that fires me up. 🧶🧦

Out here roasting coffee in my little roaster. This used to be a whole thing for me. The quality jump from store bought is enormous. Then lots of local roasters showed up and I moved on. Recently, the cost has tripled and I can roast better for less $. This is all to say I'm back on my bullshit ☕

Current wip. I need a new hat for the fall. The pattern is Elfdans by Woolly Wormhead. The yarn is a Valentine's Day sock pairing impulse buy from Les Laines Biscotte in merino and nylon. It has a nice folded brim and will have ear-like points. 🧶

A knitted hat in progress. The fabric has a brick red folded brim in stockinette transitioning into a stranded colorwork pattern of repeated red circles on a variegated pink/cream/moss background.

Upping my positive reinforcement game. We all got a pad of these useless 'Brave Sightings'. I get the impetus, but the kids really don't care. However, if you tape a little treat to it, suddenly they pay attention. I'm a bit ambivalent about using operant conditioning, but I've got a bus to drive.

A stack of bright green Brave Sightings (BRAVE stands for Bold Responsible Attentive Valued Empowered). You're meant to give these out when a kid is doing something you want to reinforce. I've taped a bright pink wrapped hard candy to the upper corner.

IMPORTANT: at WinCo, in the bulk foods section where you can grind your own peanut butter, they have honey roasted peanuts. You can grind fine or chunky, DOESN'T MATTER. What matters is the resulting butter is FUCKING DELICIOUS. Peanut butter and apple slices stays winning in the snack wars!

The murder of crows that used to hang out in a nearby copse of Doug firs and absolutely RAVAGE our Asian pears every year hasn't been around yet this summer. It's weird to have a bumper crop of pears without deep gouges out of every one. 🤷🐦‍⬛

I love how this pic of toe pouches on the back cover of the first issue of Purl magazine looks like a micrograph of diatoms ( _Navicula_ sp.). I worked on diatoms for my M.Sc. Two of my most intense nerd loves crossing paths. 🧶🔬🦠 (There's no diatom or any phytoplankton emoji, unfortunately)

A column of knitted toe pouches demonstrating sock cast-ons in grey yarn. The cast on and increase stitches look like the raphe of a bilateral diatom frustule. The individual columns of stitches look like punctate striae.

I realize it's a cliche, but the older I get the more a appreciate hard candy. I found these passion fruit ones at the asian market and they rule! Grandpa was really into something.

I've been knitting and ripping different toe shapes this summer. I'm trying to dial in my sock recipe. I've hardly been much of a sock knitter and I'm seeing if I'd like to be. I like this rounded toe. I made it almost to the heel turn during in-service yesterday. Yarn deets in alt. 🧶🧦 #TAAT

Two knitted socks in progress on circular knitting needles using magic loop. They have rounded toes and a 6/2 rib. The yarn is a hand-dyed variegated in pink, green, and white. The color way is The Young Magus by The Republic of Yarnia.

The air quality is tanking. I can see and smell the smoke moving in across the bay. Time to close up the house and turn on the air filters.

I got myself a little outdoor oven. My indoor oven sucks and it's too hot anyway, but I love to bake. Made blueberry monkey bread with a cream cheese glaze and it is freaking delicious!

I just love it when past me leaves a swatch in with some yarn with no info about needle size included with it. Thanks past me 👍🧶

First red raspberry this year. I love berry season! I keep them in pots on our deck. I have 2 red and 2 golden raspberries and about 4 blueberries. There's no big harvest, just for snacking.

Fresh of the needles. Moonlit Jellies Cowl, design by Knit Graffiti (Lesley Anne Robinson), yarn dyed by the Knitting Artist. The pattern calls for 3 repeats of a 60 stitch design, I did 2. This one is for my Stardew Valley playing bestie, and I'm going to make another for myself. 🧶

One of my cats will only drink water like this, by dipping his paw in and licking it. Yes, there is a little puddle of water there on the floor in front of him 🙄😺
