As I suspect most of you are, I'm angry, worried, disappointed, sad, just listening to others thoughts about ramifications...and now #knitting 🧶 up a storm to quell all the noise in my head 😥☹️🤬😤👀💔

How does that saying go? 6 feet high by the 4th of July? These tall grasses are rocking. Their tassels are hopefully not far behind

A bit of trimming low hanging branches, letting some sun in. #trees #trimming

I wore this top yesterday and as it stretched (cotton and linen), the neckline grew too 😧. So today I ripped out the picked up sts and i-cord bindoff, and trial and error, 3rd time is a charm. Picked up less stretched, then knitted a rnd of stockinette, the did my i-cord bind off. Much happier 😍🧶

Finished my 🧶 knitted Square Tee and am not fond of the color. I should have stuck to cream. I spent so much time on this, frogging when nearly halfway cuz it was too big. cotton/linen.

"WTH is Project 2025, with Thomas Zimmer." I highly recommend listening to this in-depth conversation (podcast) with Thomas Zimmer and Chris Hayes, very illuminating.

I had a great conversation with @chrislhayes.bsky.social on his “Why Is This Happening?” podcast about “Project 2025,” the Right’s radical plans to use government as an authoritarian tool to impose a reactionary vision on America: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/w...

Seed stitch as a separation between lace and stockinette in #knitting 🧶 It's so delicate and subtle

Out with the old, in with the new. I guess 18 years is beyond what a normal fridge life span is. 🥚🍞🌯🥛🍇🥝🍋 #frenchdoorrefridgerator #fridge

I have a love/hate ❤️💔relationship with seed stitch when #knitting 🧶 While it's tedious, it does have a really interesting pattern when placed against stockinette or as separation from lace. Will update later after some stockinette.

What a lazy cat...just gave up looking out for chipmunks and birds, taking an afternoon siesta

Help! I'm being attacked by 🧶 yarn gremlins 👹😈

Finished my 🧶 knitted Square Tee and am not fond of the color. I should have stuck to cream. I spent so much time on this, frogging when nearly halfway cuz it was too big. cotton/linen.

My first foray into fingering 🧶. What a difference it is from DK and worsted! Size 3 needles so far. EfA Moonbeam and Anne B Hanson pattern Seven Senses. And first time doing a provisional cast on. I love the feel of the yarn, 50/50 silk/cotton 💕💕. I posted photo example of finished top.

What must-have feature makes you seek it out, no compromises? Mine is a toaster that accommodates both long and thick slices of bread. Sourdough, rye bread and bagels are staples in my kitchen, so here's the new toaster 🥯🥖 #toasterfortodaysbread

#FridayPurple This looks a bit like an iris, but it's on a protected natural habitat.

Google's latest acquisition will help bring legacy Windows apps to ChromeOS I wonder how well it will work. Have my doubts, I still get funky or unacceptable results with apps like Zoom on my Chromebook flip.it/s7Gq4N

Google's latest acquisition will help bring legacy Windows apps to ChromeOSflip.it Google has acquired Cameyo to integrate virtualized Windows app support into ChromeOS, enhancing accessibility for legacy applications.

Know the feeling when you've been knitting 🧶 a top and you're nearly 1/2 way and finally accept it's too big (small) and you frog it? 🐸🐸🐸🐸 Yeah, where I'm at with smaller size. #arrgh #knittingSnafu

Happy #caturday

Maisie is dying to go play with Thelma #catsofbluesky #chipmunks

Clouds are a mysterious thing, the other day I was walking, stopped to look up at the puffy white clouds, and a sense of awe came over me. Not religious, but spiritual. It felt like it was just the clouds and me. Clouds like these #clouds #spiritual #awe

I recently moved to a 55+ community with an HOA. First time in an HOA, know the perils etc. So this am hubby told me a neighbor is flying a shithole (TFG) flag. WTF!!! #shithole #convictedfelon #democracy #neveragain

Thelma was sunning herself. Pretty good photos through a window and screen.

If You Give a Mouse a Cookie...that's how it went today. If you give Heidi #knitting needles and yarn, she'll ask for stitch markers. If you give her leftover single earrings to make markers, she'll ask for jump rings, charms, wire, beads... #beads #stitchmarkers

Happy #caturday #catsofbluesky
