Today’s crafting has, so far, been 100% store orientated. I restocked my hearts, which took most of the day at a casual pace. I’ve made a key chain, mulled on some things, and have these to put holes in to restock some listings in my shop. Or whatever. It’s all about relaxing and having fun on a bank holiday weekend….

The scarf! She is DONE! Today was primarily dedicated to tassels, ’cause… ugh. I did tassels, and then like… there weren’t enough tassels, so I had to double up on what I had in place. I learned a few things, left them a bit wild… overall happy with the result. I’ve let it be known in a few places that… Read more »

I’ve never understood the concept of no clouds in the sky meaning that it’s a beautiful day. Clouds are awesome! They’re pretty and help keep the sun from being quite so bold. Plus yanno, I like rain and snow and all the weathery sorts of things, so. But anyways, it’s Friday! Woo! Week over! I’m not doing much knitting today,… Read more »

(And not violas yesterday — pansies! Remembered this morning, ha ha) I was around at Mum’s house earlier to knit and chat a bit. I was standing in the kitchen, and I saw a lovely huge magpie in the birdbath. Of course, the fucker flew off in the time it took me to get my phone, but ANYWAYS. I took… Read more »

One of our neighbours owns a nursery, so his flower game is always on point. I love these beauties… violas? I remember them from various adaptations of Alice in Wonderland, and anyways. They make me happy. Otherwise, same old same old. Work happened, some gaming has happened, some knitting has happened. I’m probably not going to get too many rows done… Read more »

There’s all these bluebells springing up all over the village. I love them, even if they’re not bluebonnets (the state flower of Texas). I’m a sucker for blue flowers of pretty much any stripe, to include some of my favourite rose cultivars. Today has been the usual rag — work, bit of game, bit of knit. I’m well on my… Read more »

As I’ve been working on the Dr Who scarf, I’ve been rolling it up to keep it tidy and easy to maneuver. It’s pretty impressive, being about half a foot in diameter. Mainly though, I’m relieved that this is working to keep this rolling (har har, har har). That’s been pretty much it today, besides the usual sideline of gaming…. Read more »

I made a point recently to pull out my ancient headband of old to try and get the dust/fur off of it. I vaguely succeeded, enough to feel happy putting it on my head. I realised this morning that I’ve had this particular headband for 19 years. It’s two of two; the first one got sat on by a boyfriend… Read more »

I, some time back, bought a bag of factory second dice from The Thornless Rose. There’s a couple things I’ve been able to mentally pair off for earrings, but alas… only one of these gorgeous beauties. I felt like turning it into a keychain would be a disservice, so I tried my hand at a wee bit of wire wrapping…. Read more »

This week has felt super long. I don’t know why, but at least I know I’m not the only one feeling that vibe. I mean, I’ve been working hard on work things, and knitting things, but that shouldn’t make the week feel long. But eh, such is life. So I’mma say hi/bye and go back to the things. <3
