Soothing distraction
Look, I am absolutely 100% aware that I am using these as a soothing distraction while my brain comes to terms with the fact that we've just cheerfully elected a convicted felon instead of a competent woman, and that I am watching my country turn ever more fascist. I am [...]
It worked
Have I felt like knitting, At All, for the last two months? Nope. Did this freak me out? Eh, yes and no. I know it tends to happen this time of year. And I know it's always been temporary. At least so far. But also yes at least a little, [...]
Evidence
The chop was a success, and I decided the cuffs needed to get a trim to match. Because to do otherwise would bug me. I don't make the rules, I just live here. And when I went to trim them, what did I find but evidence of a previous bit [...]
Chop
This sweater has languished in the back of my closet for years because I no longer like how it fits. For you see, I used to be convinced sweaters were morally obligated to come down well past my hips, lest the world be distressed by the presence of my ass. [...]
Monthly Reminder
What's your plan to vote? I picked up my ballot from the town office earlier this month and dropped it off a few days later. (Did you know once you vote, most of the text messages and mailers stop? Think of it as a bonus treat for voting early!) Have [...]
Would that I were
Were I a cooler person, I'd have prattled more about these sooner. Alas I am not, so I'm leaving it till far later than I should. Though really, both the bat (Fangs) and the hat (Ensorcellment) take at most an hour or two. So should you be so inclined, you [...]

This year's star book is just about ready to come out! While we wait, I wanted to show off some of the fun stuff we did with the first star book. Last time was the lovely little coloring book. Today is a bit of cheerleading and handholding, just in case you're [...]
Scribbling
This year's star book is just about ready to come out! While we wait, I wanted to show off some of the fun stuff we did with the first star book. First up is this awesome little free coloring book with versions of the stars that you can print out [...]
Fetching
Ok that is really rather fetching. The bats are Fangs, the hats are Ensorcellment. And while they were not originally intended to go together, I suspect I won't be the only one to combine them. And, on the off chance that you have one of the patterns and now want [...]
Hangtime
And now...now we hang the skirt for a few days before hemming. This is to let the fabric do whatever stretching and falling out it's going to do under its own weight before I hem it. Now I fully admit this is important if you're making some kinds of skirt. [...]
