Variation on a meme:

God: In my book I invented the Golden Calf as a cautionary tale

Evangelicals: At long last, we have created the Golden Calf from classic novel, The Bible

There's the Temple Grim. As Kemmilek learnt about them and their origins he gathered the allies and discussed banning the necromancy. The beasts smoulder like rage as they guard graves and books within temples. If it likes you, it will guide you to books that you seek.

An ink pen drawing of a canine animal guarding a wood-post grave done in black and white. The canine's body possesses a smokey-like quality. There is text on the grave which is mostly unintelligible except for the numbers 542 to 560 implying that this person died when they were twenty two years old.

Spinning yarn (Merinio/flax blend) as I listen to The Hobbit. Less than a chapter in and Gandalf is already my favourite character. So sassy.

I woke up to the words "bone silk" in my head. No thank you, I'll take my silk boneless :)

I adore watching people crochet with things that are not yarn. I am not nearly so bold

For people who claim to follow the Bible, fundamentalist/evangelical cultists are always absolutely giddy about the rapture and any/all predictions of it.

My rovings arrived, woohoo! I think I will spin the sari silk with that flax + sheep (merino) blend. I think that would give me a nice contrast between the sheen and matte colours. I also got shetland because it is my favourite to spin with.

I spun some silk, I think I overspun it though

Je filait du soie, mais je pense que j'ai filé trop mon fil célibataire

Eu fiei de seda. Mas eu acho que eu fiava demais meu linho

(Desculpe por meus verbos, eu vai fazer de novo :3)

A small white braid of handspun silk threads for easy storage.

A hand holding bunches of silk thread so they can be spun back on themselves to supply strength. The support spindle being used is seen in the background.

The lettering is done in simulated sidewalk chalk.

Next time you think art doesn't matter, consider how scared the fascist are of sidewalk chalk.

I completely forgot about #tourdefleece this year. Whoops

I'm glad I learnt #French before learning #Portuguese because some of the words have the same specificity as in French, like the difference between hair (cheveux, cabelo) and body hair (poile, pelos)
