This one is a freebie from a summer trip to the shore. (Not quite seaside, it's an odd bit where the water comes in.)

I'm 39, so all the girls I knew growing up had a crush on this guy:
Goliath from Gargoyles. He is a large purple gargoyle with dark purple wings and a blue loincloth.

Get your shiny things, I've got shiny things ready for Christmas!

Supply will be somewhat limited this year, I'm having a severe difference of opinion with my heart medication, but I'm doing what I can to stock up.

US and Canadian shipping back on.

Good morning Monday! It's a grey and dreary day out there, how about a little lepidolite to brighten things up?

Dear fingers: The correct alt text is green-gold pendant. I am not selling a green-gold pedant.

I promise if you buy this labradorite, it will not come to your Christmas quiz and go "Well actually..."

Shiny things, get your shiny things in time for Christmas!

If you're in the US, please get your orders in ASAP - official cut off is the 12th but I don't want to leave it up to chance.

It's not often I have the haunted woods stones in larger sizes, but look at those vertical bands - like trees in a midnight forest.

Ah-ha, found 2. I could do with a slightly more relaxed comfy pair, but that's later's problem.

Reminder: If you cast on a pair of Fetching now... you'll finish them just as this cold snap finishes (UK), but you'll have them for next time. (I extend mine up and down.)

Ghosts are real and they're messing with jobseekers.
2 posts: More Perfect Union: "Approximately 30% of all job postings are fake, with millions of ghost jobs making a tough hiring process even worse." Fain Greenwood: "do you believe in ghosts or are you like me, a person who finds themself saying all the time “I absolutely don’t believe in ghosts, but this place has ghosts.”"

Blurry, but this caught my eye - the other escalator is broken and someone has managed to crash land a toy plane, halfway up, so everyone on the working escalator was turning to squint at it.

Lefty bigotry is fascinating. I think the majority of you belong on the right, you just have a vague grasp of maths.
Well, yes ... But on the upside; Three-Tooth Wayne will finally get to be a doctor. I mean, if he can gut a rabbit he can so do your heart bypass graft. Then he can finally buy his lovely Darleen a pickup truck with real metal flake paint.

Sadly I didn't have enough to make them all matchy, but they're going to separate households anyway. So if you're happy with these, I have the listing ready to go, same as last year, let me know and I'll link.

(Pulled tags for Abbie, Mandy, Kristy, and Gina from the box this year.)
2 rows of pendants - 2 silver hearts, 1 knotwork, one netted green drop, and 4 bird's nest pendants.

Thank you everyone sharing, making great progress! Had one big order last night, am pushing on to get the rest covered today. (Then I need to keep pushing on for other bills, but one thing at a time.)

Still about £200 short on rent, and a couple of days to get it together.

I've just added 7 new labradorite pendants here: oishiny.etsy.com

And as always, the #TurtleOfCalm is on tiny wallpaper adventures here: ko-fi.com/turtleofcalm...
