How it's going 🧶 crocheting a filet collar/shawl thing
A filet crochet piece in progress; mostly showcasing a retro flower grid design and one side has the beginning of a mesh tie extending forward.

Dreaming up new knitwear ideas... This would be a vest with a split standing collar, featuring eyelets and probably i-cord edging... The original thought is a filet lace design, but this could also be 🧶 knitted and use provisional cast-on for lace in both directions??? Hmm

Made another skyline maxi dress! These have been my summer uniform lately in the hot weather
Morgan sits in front of a colorful mural, wearing a new dress she made. It is color blocked with cream fabric, a muted floral print, and has thin cobalt blue ties in the front. Morgan stands holding a peace sign in front of a blurry bookshelf backdrop. She wears the color blocked summer dress she made- the top is cream, and the skirt is a muted floral print. The straps and ties in the front are bright blue

This book was phenomenal. I devoured it. It was all the medieval sapphic body horror and eldritch-terror-mistaken-for- religious-ecstasy I could have hoped for and more. I was so engulfed in this story. Fav read of the summer!

This is not about the merits of Iran’s nuclear program. No president has the authority to bomb another country that does not pose an imminent threat to the US without the approval of Congress. This is an unambiguous impeachable offense.

I've been in a weird creative rut/low energy period, so I have been doing a lot more reading lately. Finished the first (so good!); Started the second; almost finished the third (which I had dragged ass on for over a year til now)
Where Sleeping Girls Lie by Faridah Àbíké Íyímídé- excellent bookDBT Skills for Highly Sensitive People by Emma Lauer, LCSW. Just started and already appreciate itPlain Bad Heroines by Emily m. Danforth. Good, very fun lesbian gothic horror; does have a dual-POV time jump situation. Almost finished, enjoying it.

To be clear, I'm not an "I make all my own clothes" person bc I am that dedicated to environmental sustainability (though it's a nice thought); I make most of my own clothes because it's more accessible for me to expend time and use secondhand scraps than to afford new clothes that fit me right.

I don’t think this is a hot take, but as someone who loves sewing and fashion and design, and who appreciates the theme chosen for this year, I can’t help but have a hard time enjoying the spectacle, excess, and waste of the Met Gala... when average garment workers don't make a living wage.

🧶yarn pattern writing peeps! What are your preferred annotations for a pattern with multiple colors? Writing "(MC) for main color and (CC1) or (CC2) for contrast colors is feeling a bit clunky? I'm trying to transcribe a colorwork crochet pattern for a hat... Any tech editors here have advice?

I made this skyline tank top yesterday! I love it because it is lightweight and versatile enough to wear out as part of an outfit, but the real vision was to pair it with matching ruffle shorts so I can have a cute beach/lounge set

I already used mostly secondhand materials for my clothes and knitwear, but I'm pretty concerned about the accessibility of things like notions, needles, sewing machine feet etc, let alone thread or fabric. Smells like huge supply chain issues for fast fashion as well. How will we clothe the poor?

A moment of silence for having new clothes, before the tariffs. Something like 97% of the clothing in the US is imported, and while the US textile industry does a lot of cotton exports, they're only 8th in the world for distribution/manufacturing of textiles...

I finished a maxi dress today! Pattern is the Skyline Dress by Syd Graham. Pairs well with this color block cardi I 🧶 knit from stash yarn. Cardigan was not a pattern; made it up as I went.
Morgan stands, holding up a peace sign. She is wearing a long, 3-tier maxi dress she made, and a hand knit,  pink and purple color block cardigan on top. The dress is a light orchid color, and looks flowy and comfortable. Morgan is smiling at the cameraMorgan stands, wearing the maxi dress and cardigan she made. Her hands are in her pockets, and she looks relaxed and happy, smiling. Morgan sits, posed holding up a peace sign and smiling at the camera.

Cloture has met the 60 votes to pass in the senate with the help of at least 9 Democrats: Schumer, Fetterman, Hassan, Cortez Masto, Durbin, Gillibrand, Shaheen, Schatz, and Peters. They sold out our country to Trump and Elon. They're traitors to democracy.
This image displays a list of U.S. senators who support a particular issue or bill, with a total count of 60 supporters. Each senator's name is accompanied by their state abbreviation and, in some cases, a quote or comment. The list includes:

1. Catherine Cortez Masto (Nevada) – with a quote: "It would cause too many Americans to suffer."

2. Dick Durbin (Illinois)

3. John Fetterman (Pennsylvania) – with a partial quote: "I will never vote to shut the government down."

4. Kirsten Gillibrand (New York)

5. Margaret Wood Hassan (New Hampshire)

6. Gary Peters (Michigan)

7. Brian Schatz (Hawaii)

8. Charles E. Schumer (New York) – with a quote: "For sure, the Republican bill is a terrible option."

9. Jeanne Shaheen (New Hampshire) (grayed out, possibly indicating a different status or emphasis)

Each senator is represented with a small portrait on the left, and the text is formatted with bold headings and lighter subtext. The list appears to be part of a political report or legislative tracking document.
