I know there is a lot to doomscroll right now, but you need to plan some sort of offline activity and go do it.

Walking outside, going to a museum, cleaning your home, taking a nap, cooking some food, buying your favorite pastry; lots of options.

It'll feel better than more time on your phone.

Since it seems like this movie is never going to stream, I’ve been looking for it at estate sales. I finally found one. Now, off to the library to use their equipment to digitize it.

I had an email from a lovely client who needed help finding a scarf pattern I had made last year. She remembered it because I had posted photos of my pets wearing it! I made mine with two strands of Meringue Fluff Suri Alpaca/Silk but I think it would be amazing in my new Mochi DK! Links below.

Making a French Silk pie today. I don’t have a choice, really. My husband is convinced he doesn’t like it. I’m aiming to correct this.

It’s a beautiful morning today. These little clouds and the gorgeous sunlight coming up…amazing.

I hear that KPop Demonhunters are the most popular costume choice this Halloween. Pretty exciting! You can get your skeins of my new colorway, HUNTR/X and make something special for the Demon Hunter in your life. Or you, if you’re the Demon Hunter. 😍 🧶🧶🧶

I really appreciate the constant cat content here on Bluesky. My beloved Mushu passed away a year and a half ago and I miss him so very much. Seeing your kitties reminds me of all of the things I loved about him. ❤️😭

I’m almost finished with this crochet afghan. I’d like to add a nice border to it but haven’t been able to come up with anything interesting. The border would be the same colors as the body and I would like something that I can do about 3-5 times around the afghan. Do you have a fave border? 🧶🧶🧶

Everybody Scream is a perfect colorway for the Autumn season and...well...every morning when we wake up and read the headlines. Here it is knit up into a Point Edwards Mitt (pattern by Fairlight Fibers). I like this pattern because they are snug on my hand. (Pattern link & yarn link in comments.) 🧶🧶
A right hand is photographed with the fingers pointing up. It is modeling a fingerless mitt knit with a brown/black/cream/bright orange/violet yarn.

Is there a broccoli rabe shortage? I cannot find it. My husband says I’m the only one who uses it. 😤

So worried about our friends who rely on SNAP benefits. There will not be any payments in November. This is immoral and heartless. If you can, please provide extra support to your local community food banks. They were already struggling due to inflation. Now there will be more who need their help.

Starting my morning by roasting the last of the garden tomatillos and peppers for salsa. I didn't wear gloves while handling the peppers and will be sure to forget this when I touch or rub my eyes later. 🫣

The finale of Task was a certified tear jerker. Mark Ruffalo blew me away in this series. So did Thomas Pelphrey and the rest of the cast, to be honest.
