As usual, I forgot my yarn ball 🧶 #showmeyourknits

If all of our knitting friends on #showmeyourknits would add ALT text to their images it would help visually challenged friends AND knitting friends alike. Describe your project thoroughly AND add the name of the pattern, yarn, other details, etc. In this small way we could encourage use of ALT! 🧶

Delighted that it’s Sock Week at #showmeyourknits now that I am officially hooked on socks. Finished half a pair of Hermione’s Everyday Socks (Ravelry) and after blocking it’s a PERFECT fit. Starting the second today. Info in ALT.

Stand with Ukraine!

Turned my eye of partridge heel, switched to two circulars and am moving right along on Hermione’s Everyday socks 🧶 🧦 #knitting #socks #showmeyourknits

All the folks who exited NBC today. Seen together, hoo boy. Message received.

No lace to share for #showmeyourknits but a new WIP of Hermione’s Everyday sock by Erica Leuder (Ravelry) on my needles. #knitting #socks 🧶🧶

Bravo Senator Smith

Acccccckkkkkk!

If you support this, you’re an awful human being

I hate to be this person, but I’m the one who came up with the Democratic press secretary idea & I’d love to eventually be acknowledged for all of my fantastic ideas, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social Also it should be @jessicatarlov.bsky.social so Pete can run for Senate @mcuban.bsky.social

WIP it. WIP it good. [sic] Another attempt at vanilla socks. Sizing adjustment. This is my experimental basic sock. Keeping copious notes. Have happily frogged a few times. 🧶#showmeyourknits #socks #knitting

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.

Exactly.

I need to add some clarification. 1. Make sure you don’t sound like you’re in a bathroom. No echo! 2. No dropped words or blocks of time because of crap internet. 3. Sit somewhere in your home or office with good lighting. 4. Do not look like you are in a hostage video. Please add your tips!

#showmeyourknits I love my cat and my latest project, a reversible (not double knit) cowl shows how much I love her. Doodles pattern by Jamie Lomax will be released at the end of the month. #knitting 🧶

Recommendation for all democratic members of Congress, invest your own money in a decent mic and high speed internet for your home so that when you do remote interviews you can be heard and your connection is stable. This is critical!

Their entire movement is built on fear, lies, and hate. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
