I realised as I was working the last round on my sock that I cocked up some of the previous zag… oh well. I fixed one that was a bit too wonky, and going to leave this one alone for now. Repairing the one I did required dropping four stitches 5 rows and rebuilding the zag sloppily as I went,… Read more »

I was feeling cute this morning, so I took some pictures. I am… I wear the fatigue on my face, ha ha. This one looked the least like I was about to fall asleep on the spot, so there ya go. Today has been largely unproductive, but I don’t think anyone minded. Smaller had a Skype call with her friend… Read more »

Batman has taken to doing a lot of his daytime snoozing pressed against my pillow/blanket, which I was reminded of when changing after a bath earlier. I figured I’d take some pictures because lulz, cat, and got a free blep out of it. Today has been generically a day. I slept later than intended, did less work than intended, but… Read more »

When I was out for a walk earlier, I spotted this pretty bloom. I’m pretty sure it wasn’t there last time I walked past… *checks past photos* Huh, it was, just not as vibrant. I think that it also stood out because it’s an overcast day. The temp is a lot lower today, though the air is much thicker. I… Read more »

I don’t know if you can see the zig zag forming on the sock, but yeah… the wool is on the dark side for it. But I don’t have anything lighter in the stash I’m raiding from, so it’ll have to do. I’m also not convinced that one side of the zigging-zagging isn’t quite working out, but eh. These are… Read more »

I know, I know, it looks more like ‘old man shakes fist at clouds’, but whatever. *chuckles* It’s a minute celebration of a day that has felt productive. I got all those things I photographed listed in my Etsy shop. I buckled down and got the June greetings cards purchased. I… probably did something else, but I can’t remember, so…. Read more »

Now, Poison is one of the sweetest, most affectionate cats you could ever meet. She’ll scream her head off to celebrate and demand pets, but as said — gentle. She has never clawed any of us, except by accident. Batman, on the other hand, is a clingy bitch. And she decided some long years back that she had zero chill… Read more »

One of the things that comes up with making stitch markers is Math™®. For instance, if I want markers for a specific sized needle, I have to think about the inner diameter of the ring, which can lead to some fussy e-shopping to find the right sort of thing. I’d let one listing lapse because my attempt to replenish it… Read more »

Don’t go hiding Hiding, in the shade — Shade by Silverchair I only put the above in ’cause it popped into my head, and it’s a corking good song from Ye Olden Days of the mid-90s. And because it was shady along the wall of the Post Office where I decided to stop and take a picture of my cute… Read more »

I spotted these little lovelies on a trip down to the postbox earlier. They looked purpler with my sunglasses on, but alas, the sunglasses lied. Oh well. *chuckles* They were still there waiting for me to discover them, once again showing me that there are flowers waiting everywhere for me. I also found some more sweet loot on the way… Read more »
