Ossa dei morti (bones of the dead) for Day of the Dead.

This is part of a long term project where I make a new traditional food related to Halloween and Halloween adjacent holidays.

Suggestions for next year welcome- I've already made barmbrack, soul cakes, and pan de muerto.

When I want to knit but have nothing on the needles and no brain power to start something big, I knit stuff like this. No patterns - just messing around til I get something cute. I often add ribbon and gift them as ornaments.

I finished converting a blouse I almost never wear into a vest. If the weather ever cools down, I just might get a lot more use out of it.

Hey, my story, Prosperity, is in this book! You could call it gothic horror, a meditation on the meaning of safety and home, or just something I wrote I'm proud of sharing with the world.

Happy first day of fall from someone who has spent the last three months convinced it was the end of September.

Time has no meaning. Here are some socks I knit.

I won a giveaway from @rosieethor.bsky.social and recently got this beautiful book in the mail.

Only a few stories in and I'm very much enjoying it.

You may have just turned a corner, but I have turned a heel.

Am I the only one who writes notes to myself that are so cryptic I need to google just to figure them out?

These are Victorian party games. It was probably writing research. Or maybe themed party planning?

The rumors about me being way behind on sock darning are all lies. Lies!

The past few knits have been duds but this baby's pretty perfect and I'm really pleased.

I should have made the shoulders slightly narrower but that's a chronic issue and will likely go on my tombstone.

Second sock on the go.

Call these my retirement socks because they're the last pair of fancy socks I've knit in probably a decade. They were fun to knit but I did have to use 0s and when they were finished I felt like my skills had peaked for this garment.

Pattern is "Kristi" from Sock Inovation by Cookie A

Probably going to finish this right before the hot weather hits. Cables from The Knit Stitch Pattern Handbook by Melissa Leapman. #WIP
