Welcome Swallows. Spotted in Caroline Springs, Melbourne, Australia at a man made wet-land lake. Tiny birds and quick moving! They like areas of lawn, grass and water for hawking at speed and snatching insects on the wing. #birds #australia #melbourne

Landslide historic victory for Labor in our Australian Federal Election. Biggest surprised what that Apparently liberals thought they would do well in Victoria. Pfft! Federal Liberals forget how Labor saved lives. It was a harsh lockdown but we were kept safe. #binnight

A life time ago - well actually up until 2019 - I used to have a textile design studio in Kensington at Ironside Studios. I went to my old cafe haunt “The Premises” and reminisced to myself about that era of my life. Over a big brekkie and a latte. #latte #coffee #kensington

Nice and cosy in my Victorian Duet ribbed scarf. I love the lace knit edge and crochet trim. I added a coordinating grey marle yarn from the same yarn brand range. Thanks @franklinhabit.bsky.social for the pattern! #showmeyourknits #knitting

My @franklinhabit.bsky.social Victorian Era KAL scarf is growing! I decided to use a contrast blue gradient yarn for the 2nd half. There is a similar pink purple in the blue yarn which pops with the pink mauve of the 1st half. Fun knitting 🧶 #knitting #knitsky #handknitting #showmeyourknits

Beautiful Magpie feather markings. Love to use as inspiration for a textile knit fabric. A shawl or cape?

I love Budgies! We had a green one growing up called “Buntie the budgie” my cousin breeds them, my grandfather bred them. (Both sides of family). Would love to see a huge flock like this in the wild. #budgie #birds #australia #nativefauna

I’ve revived my old Sony Walkman WM-FX415. It’s not a collectable model but I replaced the belt & have it working again! I’m listening to Hunters & Collectors… Human Frailty on one side. The tape says Gangajang on Side 2 but it’s “Jaws of life”… 🧵 #walkman #cassette #huntersandcollectors #jawsoflife

I can’t help myself - I’ve joined a KAL with the wonderful @franklinhabit.bsky.social I’m enjoying the process & the squishy purl predominant rib. I’m using the Norwegian purl technique which is fun with this scarf proving to be great practice of it! Link to pattern is in thread 🧵 🧶 #showmeyourknits

Cicada chirping outrageously at the temperature being 30.6°C at 10.30pm! So loud! I swear it is in my room. If I stomp on the floor boards it stops. #hotweather #heatwave #melbourne #australia #cicada

Update on my Kaffe Fasset Philodendron Rowan jacket! I unraveled back to the garter rib. I made a few too many fiddly mistakes to fix. Easier to start again. I’m now at row 15 and much happier with my tension and intarsia technique. 🧶 #knitting #showmeyourknits #knitsky #handknitting #kaffefasset

I rearranged my indoor plants yesterday and just noticed my begonia is flowering! #indoorplants #flowers #plants #gardening #summer #australia

A view out of a window with white shutters. There are 6 six indoor potted plants. A silver spotted Begonia, a Hoya, a stripy Burkin, Boston Fern, a strip P leafed cathelthea and a plant called bottle baby. Two of the pots are white, one is ceramic with earth tones with fish and dots on it. Another pot is green. The other is neutral coloured.

Stopped off at my community garden this evening. Only one cucumber but lots of tomatoes. Probably only one more harvest of tomatoes for this season. More cucumber flowers though and a couple that weren’t ready to be picked. Chives, tarragon, parsley. 🍓 too 🪴🍃

My Twitter accounts are finally deactivated. (archives were ready to download). Feel relieved but sad it came to this. I’ll miss the few accounts I followed but was definitely time to move on. Oddly feel like I need to have a shower! (All my fave accounts from over there are here on BlueSky now).

I try to remember to add ALT-text to my photos. I do forget at times (ADHD) & don’t always feel well enough to to the descriptions. Due to other #disabilities I have found though that using the microphone to dictate and verbally describe the photos is an easy and enjoyable way to do it. #alt-text

I was staying on twitter to support a few accounts that haven’t moved but it’s time to close down my accounts over there. Overdue. I was only active on my personal account since 2020 - I set it up to find Covid info and found an awesome Australian community … a lot from the #auspol tag…🧵

I’m thinking of my USA online friends who follow me and want them to know I’m thinking of you from Australia. I decided I’m not going to repost or link to USA political posts. I figure you’ve probably been reading plenty - so know you can pop in here for some timeline respite. 🧵

Quirks of Braybrook; my neighbourhood… the local bottle shop has a cafe where they do lattes and have jaffles on the menu… ham, Cheese, tomato. (Yes they have a baked bean one too). Great spot to sit outside. #cafe #jaffle #toastedsandwich #braybrook #australia
