This fearless little friend pretty much walked across my feet

A young Australian magpie in the grass. You can tell it is young by the grey in his feathers where an adult would have white.

Trying to get this done while small human attempts to kill me with cat noise songs. Help. This warp is almost on and then the loom is ready for some weaving and experiments.

Partially warped loom. Thread is through the heddles and being put through the reed which is laying flat for that purpose.

My fav point with this yarn is when it starts resembling a little flower. #Knitting at the park while the small human runs riot. First sunny day here in a while.

The flat flower like shape of the end of this ball of yarn held in my hand. It’s grey, there’s a blue and white pencil case on the shot as well.

Today, in the process of making floof from the locks, I took skin off my knuckle. Wouldn't be a problem, but of course it is the finger I use to tension and manipulate my knitting yarn... of course 😭

My hand holding a fluffed out corridale lock. Basically looks like a teeny white fan of white fleece

This last Sunday’s spinning was alpaca and silk. They’re trickier but once I got the hang of it I did very much enjoy it. #handspunyarn #handspinning #beginnerspinner

I made yarn! First ever ball and it’s a mess of over and underspun but I’m really happy with it. It’s Leicester cross breed fleece, spun in the grease and washed after plying (2ply) #handspunyarn #handspinning #yarn

First finished project of 2026. The Simpler Sinister Cat Sweater by An Caitin Beag made in an adult 8 for my little human because my tension is insane so its finished dimensions are that of the size 5 in childrens. Yeah.. that’s a thing. Fits her perfectly. Yet to be blocked.

A sweater lying on a grey bed spread with the arms crossed over the abdomen section. The main colour and collar is dark teal. There’s a contrast yoke in vibrant pink and yellow and is worked so that a row of stylised cats show at the bottom of the yoke. Cuffs and waist band are in the same contrast colour.

My sincere wish for all of us in 2026 is we all keep makin' art! Good, bad, stinky – it doesn't matter! Let's keep making things. ✏️💨

Three illustrated animals stacked on top of each other in a cute style. A blue bunny, yellow kitty, and pink dog. The bunny and kitty are facing the same direction yelling "keep" and "makin'" in word bubbles and the dog is facing the opposite direction with "art!" in a fart cloud from his butt.

As a #hollowknight and #silksong fangirl this is absolutely my fav gift of the day. Chosen by my little miss who knows me well. Family have been and gone, floors have been swept and mopped, and now tea and knitting. I hope everyone had a lovely day.

Canada Goose Barbarian was first class/animal combo that I decided on, lol. #Goose #Barbarian #D&D #ArtAdventCalendar #yrglart

A drawing in a style inspired by Medieval Illuminated Manuscript Illustration. It depicts a Canada Goose dressed as a Barbarian from Dungeons and Dragons. It is wearing two leather shoulder guards with pale fur trim. It is holding a rusty battle axe in each wing, and they are crossed below its body as it hisses in fury and rage. The background is patterned like old parchment paper.

Day 22 of #artadventcalendar. This price of weaving was the final result of a 4 shaft weaving course and is a mix of cotton, cottolin, and linen. It will eventually be made into a bag but I’m still very happy with how it turned out as a fabric.

Day 19 of #ArtAdventCalendar ☃️ I sculpted this large humpback whale last year, and it found a new home through Bsky! Made from coarse paper mache which I really love sculpting with due to the organic surface texture it gives you. Painted with acrylics.

Photo of a collage assembled from elements cut or torn from magazines in hues of green, rust and gold including a newspaper headline reading "A New Physics", a vintage post card from Atlantic City NJ. other images include a heavy rust colored sweater, a painted green wall with a framed painting, yellow tulips and a dark embroidered coat edge, giving the effect of a figure walking away.

Catching up on days 17 and 18 of #artadventcalendar with these two #crochet cardigans I made for my daughter and myself last year… this year? I think last year. Hers is absolutely unicorn puke and acrylic for washability, and mine is merino. Same pattern. Very different results.

My daughter cocoon cardigan made in rainbow acrylic with pastel rainbow trim hanging on the back of a chair. It legit looks like a unicorn puked it up and she LOVES it

My cocoon cardigan hanging on the back of the door. It’s a deep red/wine red merino trimmed with a dark grey merino/silk blend. It’s super comfy and I wear it a lot.

Day 15 of #artadventcalendar and have this very odd little drawing I did sometime in the past few years. I honestly can’t tell you what was aiming for but this is the type of random my brain does when it’s left to its own devices

Uhm a small line drawing of a sort of fat body with truncated arms and legs… it’s hard to explain. Sorry.

Day 7 of #artadventcalendar ! How about some pottery today? I love this little cup… the cat was created with layers of slip to build up the form. I’d like to try this technique again but with a slip made of the same clay as the cup, that should prevent the crack that happened during firing.

A hand holds a round cup with no handle. The cup is a blueish green with gold flecks like fireflies, there is a raised black cat on the surface.

Sticking with me birds for Day 7 of #ArtAdventCalendar but they're taking on a different form...jewellery. With most of my illustrations at some point I will turn them into wearable art of some type, be it necklaces, earrings or the always popular pins! #BirdArt #SciArt #Procreate #Illustration

A sustainable laser cut wooden statement necklace by Loadofolbobbins showing an illustration of a goldfinch perching on a branch of cherry blossom. The blossom stands proud of the main branch, adding a 3D effect, and the necklace is attached to an antique bronze cable chain. The small, cute goldfinch has a bright red face, white underbelly and different shades of brown across it's side and back that lead to a vibrant yellow patch on it's wing which is bordered by black. The illustrations is done is outlined in black and has a thin natural wood border. It is done in a slightly simplified drawing style.

Day 7 of #artadventcalendar. One of my favourite photos of my favourite comfy make. This green #crochet jumper has fallen apart but it was the snuggliest, warmest, fluffiest merino jumper to ever exist. Modelled by my little human who wants doing the best Kate Bush dance impression ever.
