Knitting keeps me sane... Waiting while the immunotherapy is dripping...

A bright neon brioche cowl in progress on my lap, besides me my husband's legs are visible on a hospital chair.

Sunday evening the last pills were taken, yesterday the blood showed it was okay enough... Now it's time to go to the hospital and hope immunotherapy will teach DH's body to kill some cancer, instead of almost killing him in the process like last time. 🤞

Ik wens jou 💜 Dit #gedicht vind je in mijn bundel ‘Lees mij tussen de regels door’ en is er ook als wenskaart. Af en toe lees ik voor. Ik doe ook aan verzoekjes, zie m’n eerdere post waaronder je een paginanummer kunt zetten, en ik lees ‘m voor op een moment dat ik er zin, tijd en energie voor heb

Mijn steun aan de demonstratie tegen discriminatie en tegen fascisme

Ik hou mijn hart vast maar houd mij vast aan wat ons vasthoudt aan elkaar

Met haatzaaien zul je geen liefde oogsten

Wie ons tegen elkaar uitspeelt is wat mij betreft uitgespeeld

Wars van onverschilligheid maken we samen het verschil

🔥 Hot Right Now 🔥 Never in my wildest dreams did I think Creatief Kerchief, my newest Tunisian crochet design, would be a hit on Ravelry. Since last Tuesday, this little scarf has seen a lot of love. It's been in the top 5 of Hot Right Now crochet patterns. #TunisianCrochet #KnittyMag 🧶

Marieke wearing a Tunisian crocheted little scarf wrapped around her neck, styled into a bow with a scarf ring. The scarf is made in a blue variegatedy yarn. She's wearing a red short sleeve dress and is watercolouring at a table.

Well that's it for me and racing in #SockMadness I disqualified myself with a mistake I will not fix. I'm not enjoying the yarn and pattern combo at all, and I will not hate knit the full second sock either. Back to knitting is for fun!

A single sock in a mosaic and cable pattern, in navy blue and mustard yellow. The sole is in pinstripe length wise and has a stark line across just before the toe, the mistake I made...

Sock Madness round one has started! Managed 2/3 of the leg, cats approved so time for bed now. Hope to finish the leg and gusset tomorrow. #SockMadness #SockMadness19

2 Cornish rex cats, one blue calico and a cream and red one, lying on a yellow blanket on my lap, looking sleepy at my sock in progress on a circular knitting needle. The sock is yellow and blue has a ribbed cuff, and tiny cable pattern. It also has a lamp work glass bead stitchmarker on it, in shades of blue.

Proof of conjoined sock knitting. Just the toe left, and then to cut and do a bind off! #SockMadness

Hand knit socks in a greenish yellow on sock blockers. The socks are still joined at the cuff and one toe is still to be knit. Also the project bag is showing, with cartoon quotes like HUH? BOOM and OMG!!!

Time for #sockmadness 🥳 conjoined twins, so knitting these socks from toe one to toe two and cutting the socks in the middle between the cuffs! 😱

A caked up center pull ball of yarn, in a greenish yellow on a project bag, green with comic quotes like Bammm and question marks. In the ball of yarn are circular sock needles with a tiny start of the toe of a sock. Besides it on the table is a tiny yellow pair of scissors and a bunch of lightbulb stitch markers.

Spent the afternoon away from my doom scrolling and playing a game with DH. I feel so much better tonight! Valeria card kingdoms has definitely become one of our favourites!

A grid of 4 rows by 5 columns of cards in the middle of a table. A hand hovering over the third row. A score board on both sides of the grid with tokens to track items. And 2 cards in the bottom corner of the photo in front of me.

Is #FOFriday a thing here too? Because I have 2 finished objects for it 🙌 Last night just before bedtime I finished the plain vanilla socks in Schoppel Zauberball Crazy for DH, and this morning I finished my gloves! Warm hands for the upcoming frost period for me!!! 🧤

A pair of hand knit gloves on the left, in purple, yellow and petrol variegated yarn, in a 1x1 colourwork pattern, and a pair of hand knit socks on sock blockers on the right, in green, purple and blue gradient yarn.

This seems like a good day to post a picture of a bowl full of baby otters.

Time to get back to the dye pots! May 25th there is a craft market in my own city Enschede, the craft circle, and of course I cannot skip that! So I need a lot more stock!!! 💪 These mini skeins will be turned into Paradise Fade mini skein sets! 🏝️

Halfway point reached! And I didn't even hate knitting the fingers! So time to cast on glove number 2! 🧤

A single glove and a project bag on a tile floor with wood print. The glove is variegated blue, purple and yellow. The project bag is bright green and a cartoon words pattern with text like OMG, BOOM and HUH?

Decluttering the dye studio done! Also did part of inventory, and am now ready to get back to work! 💪

Room full of yarn in bins and a few boxes. The counter is ready to work on again.
