@ecology101.bsky.social A nice response from Shaun Harper in defense of DEI. www.insidehighered.com/opinion/blog...

Pretty sure my last two colors are out of order. Does it matter? #weaving #colorgamp #threefatesyarns

Seething about the dear colleague letter.

The notion that Trump's "I'm king" tweet is "just trolling" or "a joke" presents an opportunity to recreate my just-joking thread (porting it over from the Bad Place): 1. I wrote my PhD dissertation on the social function of humor (in literature & film) and here's the thing about "just joking."

A few old project photos from my instagram account. #mabonsweater

Mostly scrap

My epic failure in not doomscrolling can be seen on my other account. In the mean time, here's some pretty mini skeins. #threefatesyarns #indiedyer #arttherapy

Snowgeddon for the Pacific Northwest today. I'm actually headed off to Red Alder Fiber Arts for the first time since 2019. Hopefully some nice lyft driver will take me the mile to the Amtrak Station. Can't be too sure about that though. I'm trying to rest not doomscroll.

This is just Alice. It’s the blue you all saw last week. I dropped off the trunk show and now will have to continue my personal therapy with through the sock weight merino yak silk but it’s pretty well stocked. My other account tends to highlight the reasons why.

I'm watching Love Scout since it should have the last episode drop Friday. Spoiler alert. There's this swoonworthy organizing scene in episode 3. Probably only to people with ADHD, but oh if someone did that for the yarn.

I dropped off about 60 lbs of merino yak blends off at Northwest Wools in Multnomah Village today for an online popup for the Rose City Yarn Crawl. So now I'm packing my knitting so I can chill at Red Alder Fiber Arts and hang with friends for the weekend. If you need something, better ask now.

New and ready for the rose city yarn crawl - DK weight Helios mini skeins. Available for the online pop-up at Northwest Wools!

I've been dyeing yarn for 17+ years, though for some reason my website says fewer. Just more proof that I only do addition and subtraction correctly when I'm drinking caffeine.

A few of the mini skein sets headed to Northwest Wool’s for the Rose City Yarn Crawl online popup.

Cheshire 1 (Cheshire 2, comes later) and maybe orange tea cake.

For my not so secret guilty pleasure.

I’d actually forgotten why my mother-in-law wouldn’t fly for decades. It had something to do with Reagan and understaffing and the FAA. Sadly, I see her point now.

This is the blue to orange transition now on a yak yarn. Which of the greens (2-4) do you think should be the new permanent color way? (Turquoise is 1 and orange is 6). #indiedyer #threefatesyarns

My new automated standing desk from Fahlman furniture based on the Uplift desk base. They added a drawer. Best combination of locally made and industrial work in my opinion. I had a tiny thing from IKEA before which wasn’t doing the job. This is the best looking piece of furniture in the house!

@ecology101.bsky.social Yeah, things weren't confusing enough. www.npr.org/2025/01/28/n...

Also, Bluesky does have a translate option even though it's nowhere near as good as Twitters. You can also highlight text or take screencaps and translate via Google Translate #kdrama #cdrama #bl #bollywood

The “neat” piles are starting to grow. #threefatesyarns #indiedyer

I finally figured out how to grab some of those old reels. BBN

To use #americanidiot for #therecruit in this moment is brilliant. I'm don't think I could watch this genre right now without that opening, even for the charm of the lead. youtu.be/czt_Mh_qdsw #greenday #netflix #southkorea

The yarn explosion in my office just continues until one day it all just kind of goes to its home in Portland.

I need the name of the band that covers American Idiot in Korean for the Recruit.

Some shots of climate beneficial wool I dyed last summer where I dyed orange with its complement (in this case turquoise) in a gradient pattern. I’m working on trying it out on DK yak and merino silk mini skeins. I’m pretty sure the dirty green is going to make it as a permanent colorway.

Today - dyed yarn, played board games, read MLK, tried to not surf the news too much (largely failed.) Tomorrow - continue to take it one day at a time.

Why yes, a yarn shop did explode in my house. What’s your point? #threefatesyarns #indiedyer

Today, honor a King, not a Felon. #mlkday2025

It's a lot easier to engage with my followers here. I have fewer followers than on Instagram (about 5% of what I had before so far) and very similar amounts of engagement on any photos I post about my yarn and fiber. It's also easier to post. #bluesky www.forbes.com/sites/anisha...

My unprocessed pile got a little out of hand this fall, but I’ve got a new desk coming next week and the #rosecityyarncrawl to prep for, so here goes nothing. #yakyarn #indiedyer #bipocdyer #threefatesyarns #handdyed

I’m grateful for my citizenship, which among other things gives me right to vote and empowers me to speak. Many of my fellow adoptees were not so fortunate. #koreanamericanadoptee
