The latest design by @minimiknitdesign.bsky.social I had the pleasure to test knit. I used a 100% cotton yarn and have already worn it many times #knitting #knitsky #cotton #handmade #handknitted

Scored this loom for free! It was a bit of an adventure transporting it and will need work. But am looking forward to the adventures in #weaving. #loom #weavingloom #fiberarts #wool

This is the San Diego Team of the back to back challenge team. They broke their own USRecord! Shear a sheep, spin the yarn, knit a sweater, put it on a person! A team of 8 has to do all the work. The rest is the support team. #backtobackchalkenge #knitting #wool #spinning 🧶 #sheep #handmade 🧦

Freshly harvested Loquat’s, black Mulberries, and Guavas. Going to wash them and then into the steam juicer. Tomorrow, jelly making is on the schedule. #gardening #permaculture #harvest #homesteading #homegrown #preserving #eatfromthegarden 🌱🌳
