I just finished The Massacre at Yellow Hill by @cshumble.bsky.social (the first book in the Amidst the Vastness of All Else saga) and loved it! Ready for the next, A Red Winter in the West.

I'm excited to try some natural dyes on these lovely skeins of Canadian wool!
Happy to support your farm @topsyfarms.bsky.social !

Finished off the first single, and plied it this weekend. Embracing my snail pace.

I just finished "The Between" by @tananarivedue.bsky.social today, and it was so good! Jumping into "The Good House" audiobook next!

Listening to Bob the Drag Queen's audiobook "Harriet Tubman: Live in Concert" while hearing about her removal (apparently temporary) from the National Parks Underground Railway memorial, was quite the moment. I'm happy to have received a fascinating history lesson through Bob's story & music.

Three becoming-yarn stages.
The second spun rolag has now also been plied, and the third rolag started its transformation into yarn today.
Thank you to @nyxieh.bsky.social for carding and gifting the fiber. 🩵

This week's reading: "Withered Hill," "The Fright Before Christmas," "The Lost Village," and "Lanny." If forced to choose a favourite, it would be Withered Hill, but Lanny had the most emotional impact.

The first six in a series of tiny joys with this advent by TinyHumanKnits. I'm enjoying watching the gradient unfold.

Robin Wall Kimmerer is such a gift. Her books are soul-nourishing, and I love listening to her read them. I'm torn between taking it in in one go and parceling it out in many small, delicious moments.
