I'm an IT person who happens to have an MSLIS. I enjoy all things knitting and quilting. I love to travel and am a dog/cat mom.

Decided that the Premier has outgrown the cabinet, so while Dracos is off fetching more shelf brackets I moved goodies from @knittingkitten.bsky.social to the cabinet, where they now look more cozy. I think the floral skellington will move over to the empty wall in the back room. 1/2
A cabinet populated with embroidery & quilting kits & supplies, including English Paper Piecing techniqueThe slatwall at the back of the Big Room, almost ready for shelves & lotsa yarn. Still hooks on the left side, and a wall hanging on the right. The shelf of lego flowers up high on the left side will stay, and we’ll put up one for my coral reef or vegetables on the right.

It's finished, blocked, and drying. I just need to decide which buttons I'm adding and the #MarshGrassCardigan by Emily Wood is completed. I'm so in love with how all the little 20 oz skeins from @leadingmenfiberart.bsky.social blended.

While waiting for my #MarshGrassCardigan to dry, I started a 3rd test knit. This is the #delftpullover by Jennifer Owens. Im using @yarnspirations.bsky.social #caroncloudcakes in Fir and #lattecakes in Cream. Im hoping that I have enough of Fir, because my @michaelsstores.bsky.social is out.

I just finished the sleeves for the #MarshGrassCardigan by Emily Wood. Now it's washed and is blocking! Once it's dry, it's sewing and adding the button bands and collar. Yarn is @leadingmenfiberart.bsky.social Showstopper fingering-weight in multiple colors.
Multicolored sweater in yellows, orange, pinks, and purples on blocking mats pinned to match measurements to dry.

My #marshgrasssweater is at 7.5 inches. I'm not sure, but I think I might have enough of the mini skeins to finish out the body of the sweater. This pattern is by Emily Wood. Yarn is from @leadingmenfiberart.bsky.social

IAM professional who also is a Librarian: How is the Identity Architecture for those who should have privileged access to the cup? Are there groups that should only be able to see the cup or only the contents of the cup. Are we using policy to enforce those groupings?

Libraries & librarians have never been more important. If we care about the future, we must make sure every school, every community, every child has access to a library & a librarian. And we have to give them all our support, so they can do their vital work, which benefits us ALL! #SaveLibraries

The one thing I wish we had in America is more trains. I was recently in Europe and enjoyed their public transportation which equated to me knitting more!
