Really interested to see what others are doing for #ScrapAlong2025 I found enough merino scraps to do a fairisle tam of my own design, but now looking for ideas for smaller amounts of yarn. #ScrapAlong2025 #ScrapAlong #ScrapYarn #LeftoverYarn #Yarn #Craftivism #Craftivist #knitting #knitsky

Welcome to the first day of #ScrapAlong2025! 🥳 It’s an opportunity for yarn crafters of all kinds—crochet, embroidery, felting, knitting, latch hook, macrame, nalbinding, needlepoint, tatting, weaving, and any I missed—to create with leftover yarn and share their scrappy gorgeousness online. 1/3

#outreach and #publicengagement: be creative. If a task has one answer, the students who know how to work it out will, and then have nothing to do, while those who don't, won't, and then have nothing to do. You'll have to drag the momentum back up. It's going to tire you out as a presenter!

OK, #CSED your time to shine: Does anyone have experience using screen readers (e.g., JAWS) with block-based coding? What works? What doesn't work? I can find vague accessibility statements like: you should be able to use our digital products with common tools which is not helpful.
