I’m a 40-something yarn enthusiast, book collector, angry humorist, & sometimes decent human being. I try anyhow. Shying away from the political shit show for now. (she/her)

There are so many great new books coming out that I'm struggling to find space for them all. If each of you could buy, like 4 or 5 things from our shelves, that would be great! - Michael 😆

It’s a cycle that never ends. Attitudes towards it will never change fast enough to prevent the new crop of rapists coming up to continue the legacy. And the ones who get away with it will always protect their own. It’s been an extremely triggering week & I’m spiraling tonight. Nothing changes.

Really fucking exhausted of everything. Not sure if a social media break or a vacation from life would help. One or both. I mean it’s all still there when you get back. And I’m so fucking weary of it all. -sigh-

Another knitting project taken on. Crafters ADHD is real! Still working on the other feather & fan pattern. Just slower. This is in double stocking stitch for anyone interested. Makes for a nice doubled over, dense fabric. Going to be nice & toasty if this ever gets finished. 🤭

My Rage Against the Machine/Les Mis mashup is complete. This is my interpretation of the quilt guild’s summer challenge “quilt with your interpretation and/or feelings towards our current ‘democracy’” all hand stitched.
Quilt hanging on a card catalog. Neutral background with navy cursive appliqué “Do you hear thr people sing?” The background is embroidered in red starting light and getting bolder the lyrics to “killing in the name” the quilting effect is a focused sunburst from the center.

So I finally got around to watching Weapons. I suppose it made me laugh at the end but otherwise… meh? Few questions about events but not really sure I care enough to get into it. It passed the time anyway. I don’t think horror is my genre. 🤷🏻‍♀️

A sale or two at my shop would be a colossal help. This helps support me as a fabric artist, unofficial town sorcerer, and human being. I'd love for you to check out my Jeremy Creatures. Each one is designed and hand-sewed by me and takes many hours to create. jeremycreature.bigcartel.com
Here's a lovely photo of a plethora of hand-sewn fabric art creatures. There's a watermelon creature with a red face, eight black seed-like eyes, and a wide mouth with five sharp teeth. There's a white ghost trinket bag covered with purple embroidered flowers. She has a gray face, sparkly black eyes and a little frown. There's a strawberry creature with three bulbous green eyes. There's a watermelon ghost, and a black creature with sharp teeth wearing a bulbous eye earring. There's a large purple creature with many yellow eyes and an open mouth, with a little green creature popping her head out. All the creatures are sitting on green fur and there's a galaxy print fabric in the background.

I just bought a Victorian moustache for an upcoming episode of Under The Knife. Do you think this is what my old university professors thought I'd be doing with my PhD? Anyway, in case you missed it, I've brought this silly series back and here's the first episode: www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Com...

Have made 10in on my scarf. Thinking of changing out the striping colors to purple/black, then lime green/black, back to purple/black, & finish with orange/black just to mix it up. But that would only make the finished product 50in long when the average scarf is 60-70in. Hmmm… ideas?

Figured it out! Kinda. Well I’m moving ahead again at least. Tink’ed back a stitch & added one in since I knew what side I had lost it on. Got my count back & have progressed a few more sets of repeats. I don’t think you can tell where I goofed. Or I can’t see it at least. Calling this a win!

Guess I’m done knitting then. Thank you to all who offered help but I don’t know how to undo or tink back stitches & it doesn’t sound like adding a stitch in is going to fix it so… back to the skein it goes. Dammit. 😕 I really need to find someone to teach me knitting properly.

Time to put the knitting down. After finishing a row 4 I counted & I have 41 stitches when I should have 42. 😳 Gonna need to sleep on how to fix this. Like if I just add one stitch anywhere my next row 1, do you suppose it’ll be okay? 🧶 #knitsky

Trying a feather & fan knitting pattern to mix things up. Completely fucked myself earlier. Was at the end of the 5th set of repeats & thought I’d messed up. Pulled the whole thing out only to realize I was SUPPOSED to have 3 stitches left on the needle at the end. Arg!!!

The frustration level is HIGH today. Not so much with people but companies I have to work with. Every case I work on comes with different rules when the same rules should apply to all. Don’t do this or that. WHY DIDNT YOU DO THIS OR THAT? Well because you people fucking told me not to. AHHHHH!!!

It’s the perfect day outside for inside cuddles with the dogs. Windows are open. It’s about 60° out and raining with a low rumble of thunder every now and then. I need a book, a blanket, a coffee, and something bubbling in the crockpot for dinner later to top it off.
