The better photo.
Just a reminder that this is Romney not Merino so wears better (doesn't pill) but isn't as soft. The wool trade-off. It's handspun and dyed then knitted.

Sold!
Now I just need to rehome the shawl. I'll post a better photo later. At the moment the bright Auckland sun makes it look pink but it's a rich dark plum.
I'd really love it to go by Christmas.

Screenshot of a Fox News clip with US NATO ambassador telling 'allies' they need clean up 'unsustainable' immigration. Why on earth does the graphic show New Zealand? I wonder what our pro-immigration govt thinks about this? And as for being a US ally at this time...no thanks.

The shawl is in a vintage style and would be great for cold commutes. I designed it to get what I wanted. It's year-old Romney so is lovely and soft. More robust than Merino so won't pill. You should be able to hand it down to your grandkids. Comes with some spare yarn in case repairs are needed.

There's enough yarn for a woven scarf or a small knitted scarf. It would look fab in a stranded knit. The fibre is from fibre2go so is a bit special.

Post something random if you want. Or don't, nothing will be different either way, other than the curse being broken.

Dear @chrishipkins.bsky.social
My unscientific straw poll suggests this is a REALLY REALLY bad idea. Fortunately you've left yourself 'further discussion' wiggle room. If I were you, I'd have those discussions tonight and change my mind tomorrow morning.

Auckland's Mayor Thinks It's Up To Central Govt To Establish Workhouses
I just can't with these people...
To our unhoused whanau, and the good citizens of Ngāruawāhia - I'm truly sorry. That colonial mentality dies hard.

The two side doors are fixed in place. Now to put in the two sliders. And we've also realised it's safety glass so we're less likely to die if they break.
