All set up and ready to roll on the artists side of the dealer hall at Cleveland ConCoction! I’m excited to be attending this con for the first time this year, and I believe it’s the last fan run con in Ohio (please correct if I’m wrong, I’d love to support more con). Come by and say hi!🎨 #art

Kiki was the only one with her beak out at masked craft night. Obviously I need to make her a little chicken mask so she can be a good community member 😷 #EmotionalSupportChicken

Old Kitty on my lap. Sick Kitty on the heating pad to my left. Rambunctious Kitty upstairs asleep. All kitties accounted for. Let the cuddles commence.

I have hopped on the Emotional Support Chicken bandwagon. What a fun, fast knit! And oh so satisfying to hug. The red and green are my #handspun, the main color is handspun I bought at a festival - such a treat to get to use yarn made by another artist 💖 #ALittleEveryDay #knitting #FiberArt

#ShowMeYourKnits lace edition! I really enjoy knitting lace. This cowl has been in heavy rotation for a while now. The yarn is #handspun Merino/Tussah, and the pattern is Idlewild by the brilliant Victoria Marchant. #knitting 🧶 #handmade #FiberArts

It's been an extremely hard week around here, so I've been Stress Knitting™. Let's have a small parade of finished objects, shall we? First up is a nephew #sweater. #HandDyed yarn by me. Pattern is the ever-popular Flax with a few tweaks for fit. #knitting 🧶 #FinishedObject #handmade #FiberArts

A little wrister to go under mittens. Somehow this all got knit today (and I didn't start until the afternoon). I'm not stressed; you're stressed. PS the yarn is handspun Coopworth wool 🧶 💖 #ALittleEveryDay #knitting #handspun #handmade #FiberArts

Ok, so I did finish the blue hood, complete with buttons! But every photo I take of myself in it makes the dang thing look like a woolly sunbonnet (which is not how it looks to me in the mirror). I'll try again tomorrow.

Please stop comparing RFK Jr.'s wellness camps to the Nazi eugenics program. The Nazis got their idea from the US. We were doing the eugenics program first. This isn't "just like them," it's "us, part 2."

It's weird as a biologist to say "ignore the science part" but here we are Science: Vaccines don't cause autism. BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER. If vaccines caused autism I would still recommend them. Dying of preventable disease is bad. Autism isn't a disease and most of the "bad" of autism is society.

Looking for something fun to do with the family this weekend? The inaugural Dayton Art Fair is being held at the Dayton Arcade hosted by The Contemporary Dayton. I’m proud to have been one of 28 artists selected to exhibit and sell my work at this event! Sat 11-6 and Sun 11-4. Pop by and say Hi! 🎨

The blue rectangle has turned a corner and is becoming a hood! Tomorrow I think the knitting will be done. Then it's just a matter of finding cute buttons. #ALittleEveryDay #knitting 🧶 #handspun #handmade #FiberArts

Finished A Prayer for the Crown-Shy (Becky Chambers) about a week ago and have been really enjoying the discussion it prompted with some online reading buddies. So many heavy topics and big ideas to chew on from such a calm, comforting narrative. #BookSky #BookReview #SciFi

Look at this absurdly symmetric #tarot reading. I used the Fight or Flight spread @evviemarin.com created (on Patreon) - highly recommend! Got a strong, clear message about where to put my energy. The deck is Tarot del Fuego because the world is on fire right now 🔥

Since there was a lot of interest, and this painting sold at Capricon over the weekend, I’m planning a limited print run. If you are interested in acquiring one of the prints, drop a comment here or shoot me a DM so I can reach out when I have them in hand. 🎨

More yarn was made, and more yarn was used! Behold the #hat, now glorious #FinishedObject. I'm happy enough given there was no real plan. It definitely vibes with the mitts, and it's plenty warm. #ALittleEveryDay #knitting 🧶 #handmade #handspun #FiberArts

In what's becoming a recurring plot point for me, I ran out of yarn. I made some more (even found my leftover singles from before!), but I'm a little nervous this still won't be enough 😅 #ALittleEveryDay #handspinning #yarn 🧶 #FiberArts

This is really interesting. Groundbreaking study on the value of libraries and “third places.” “A whopping 82% of people who used the library’s physical space and 79% of people who physically attended programs reported more optimism regarding the future, compared to only 58% of digital-only users.”

Yesterday I ran out of yarn for my hat. Today I spun more and then promptly checks notes ran out of yarn again. Dang it. I think I have a bit more of this fiber somewhere 🤔 #knitting 🧶 #handspun #handmade #ALittleEveryDay #FiberArts

It's hearts for #showmeyourknits this week, and I have #mittens with a good story. I blended fiber, spun #yarn 🧶, and knit mittens as a wedding gift for dear friends. The motif is heart shaped, and under each thumb is a small duplicate stitched heart in the other person's color 💜💚 #handspun

A little spindle time this morning. I need more yarn for my hat! The first batch was spun in...2017? So it's a fun challenge to try to match my spinning 😁 #handspinning #SpindleSpun #LowWhorlGang #yarn 🧶 #FiberArts

I finally got to join my two hat tubes together! All that's left are the crown decreases, but I ran out of yarn. Good thing I have a bit of this fiber left. Let's see how quickly I can make some more 😁 #ALittleEveryDay #handmade #handspun #FiberArts

Another busy day means more mindless hat #knitting 🧶. I'm almost ready to join the two layers, but I'm a little concerned that I'll run out of this purple. Maybe I should have worked top down 😅 #ALittleEveryDay #Handspun #Handmade #FiberArts

Remember that I was working on a hat prior to the blue rectangle? Well it got a little attention today. The inner ribbing is done, and the outer ribbing is more than halfway there! #ALittleEveryDay #knitting 🧶 #handspun #handmade #FiberArts

My blue rectangle has sprouted an auxiliary rectangle. And before it's done I'll need to produce some auxiliary yarn...I must have counted my yardage wrong 🙃 #ALittleEveryDay #knitting 🧶 #handmade #handspun #FiberArts

This whole thread is pretty great, you should check it out. I think this one is my favorite though.
