This spin turned out well. I love the colors, but if I’m going to use it in colorwork, I’m at a loss as to what solid color to pair it with. #handspinning #spinningyarn #useyourhandspun

This is the last status picture I have of my #DreymaSweater by #JenniferSteingass. It’s now half way down the body. Love it! 🧶 @kelbournewoolens.bsky.social Scout in Teal Heather and #JunctionFiberMill Making Tracks Lite in Zinnia #ShowMeYourKnits

I think @briantylercohen.bsky.social and @democracydocket.com ‘s Mark Elias did a great job of articulating what we need to do right now to protect our constitutional democracy. Please spread the word!

Donald Trump signed a bunch of executive orders rolling back abortion protections in the middle of the night, hoping that no one would notice. This is — and always has been — about controlling women’s bodies. I’m fighting back.

Finished a #ChevronBabyBlanket a #MaryJane’sTearoomBear, and a Purl Solo #ClassicCuffedHat, for my SIL’s sister. They don’t have any knitters in the family, that we know of, so we thought it would be nice to gift her something handmade. 💗 #ShowMeYourKnits 🧶 Malabrigo Worsted, Berroco Vintage (bear)

You might have missed it, but Amazon warehouse workers in Raleigh, NC are voting this week on whether to form a union. If they win, they'll be the first unionized Amazon facility in the South. Remember that we can always find hope in the labor movement.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

Musk and his network of neo-fascists are highly organized and pose a real, not theoretical, existential threat to democracy, civil rights, and the rule of law. This isn’t just an attack on DEI; it’s the calculated dismantling of protections that stand in the way of authoritarian control.

Finished the Strange Brew sweater a few weeks back and couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. My first time using @kelbournewoolens.bsky.social Scout in a sweater and the fabric is so pleasing. I immediately purchased more for the next sweater. CC: Junction Fiber Mill Making Tracks Lite #knit
