Absolutely disgusting. I wish nothing but horrible things on every government official and ICE agent that is contributing to this nightmare.

Another highly educational video by @jillianeve.bsky.social regarding the history of labor, textile production and fiber arts in the US, tariffs, and how it ties into current events. Please go watch it. 🧶 youtu.be/2qALHS-QJ28?...

The Knit Stars-Autism Controversy as Explained by an Autistic Knitter. Read the full article on my blog: www.neurostitches.com/blog/the-kni... 🧶 #knitstars #knit #crochet #autistic

They don't care if you were born here, they are out to deport anyone who is the wrong skin tone. Vote appropriately in the upcoming May elections!

Really glad I never got into Knit Stars. Brander's endorsement of "cures" for autism are insulting. Dairy free & gluten free? If that were true my son would not have been diagnosed as autistic level 1 after being dairy free for 2 years. GF 10 years did nothing for my nuerospicy sensitivities. 🧶

#friyay night SmackDown and knitting🧶. I feel old as hell after hearing John Cena say he's been wrestling for 25 years. He debuted when I was 13. Damn.

I've reached the knitted on edging part! Got there about a week ago actually, but the edging as written in pattern is so frustratingly fussy (p2tog tbl, many times) and I don't even like the look of it. So I'm improvising with a different edge that echoes the garter scallop at the top edge. 🧶

Actual footage of me opening the @lolabeanyarnco.com email with tracking for my Seven Sins pre-order 🧶. I wasn't expecting it to ship for another couple weeks!

Bird watching.

I've been voting by mail for the last 5 years, so I can't remember if I ever voted at my polling location since marrying and changing my last name. I have duplicates of all my documents, and Real ID, but not everyone does! This is bullshit voter suppression.

Some grey things for this week's #showmeyourknits . I prefer grey as my neutral color in most colorwork. Most of those are items that I kept for myself except my mom took the mitts. Pattern info in alt text. 🧶

Something simple on this Saturday morning. I haven't crocheted anything in over a year, so a big granny square is a nice change of pace. Also trying out my new @furlscrochet.bsky.social Streamline metal crochet hook. I like my wooden Furls, but this metal one seems kind of blunt in comparison. 🤔🧶

WHEW, it's been a LONG time since the craft room was this clean. My sewing table still needs to be sorted out so I can finally finish quilting a wall hanging, but I can see my floor now! 😆 Just need to install some surface bolts on the flimsy French doors, because boy cat is a burglar. 🧶😼

🧶 Today's lunch break knitting! Onto the foot of my Modernismo sock. Here it is on a blocker:

Jeanine is a piece of shit. From the SSA website: A child may be eligible for SSI disability benefits beginning as early as the date of birth; there is no minimum age requirement. www.ssa.gov/ssi

🧶🧦 #showmeyourknits WIP, my Modernismo sock. I'm into the gusset decreases!

One more photo dump for #showmeyourknits baby stuff. More things knit for my own son and my honorary niece. A Barley and Flax set, Baby Vertebrae, Baby Sophisticate, and a wool diaper soaker requested by my friend. I had no idea about such things until she asked 😆. 🧶

Wow, @fetterman.senate.gov, you turned off your voicemail? That's kind of worse than Dave McCormick's voicemail always being full. @5calls.org , can you make it easier to email our reps by including their email address on your app? Not all of us are able to call during regular business hours.

New addition to my knitting book library! 'Softly -Timeless Knits' by Sari Nordlund. And some Jūl hardware for that green cowl I finished last month. Also, look at this ram on the Wool and Co. poly mailer! I love him. 🖤🧶
