Just a historian trying to do their little crafts, read their little books, and write their little history & mythology blurbs while the world is on fire.

It's time to start reading for classes I'm not taking yet.
I can't believe I still haven't actually read this book in its entirety.

This is a stack of books I just got that I still need to catalog before they go to my shelves. Granted, they're mostly craft/pattern books.
I only realized recently that I also have categories that I find more acceptable to be in e-book format. The others tend to 'need' to be physical.

I've had people give me a hard time when I call my e-reader a disability aid. This is a comparison.
Books are hard to hold. One of the reasons I slacked so hard on reading this year is because I just set the Palma up with the Popsockets so I can still hold it on bad days.

Color coding a writer journal never felt so right.
Most of these are in a TWSBI (I think all Ecos, actually), but the Dark Forest is in a Monami 153 Neo, and it's a dry af pen. Works well for its intended purchase as a jotter, though.
Don't mind the shite handwriting.

It's Krampusnacht, y'all!
Have a sparse Krampus tree because the cats are demons.

No pattern. I'm pretty sure it's a fake sweater on a fake man. Albeit both are very aesthetically pleasing.
It's a screenshot I took off of Pinterest to take as inspo for a sweat for my spouse.
I was just going to do a 1x1 or 2x2 rib base on yarn gauge, maybe with set in sleeves.

Calling all yarn people: I want to make this Skynet sweater in this exact-ish color. Does anyone have any yarn comps they can think of? Every yellow I can find is too butter-flavored. I'd love it in a worsted or aran for time constraints.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. 🫶

Well, I'm shutting down the sweater factory for the night. I didn't manage to accomplish #NaKniSweMo. 😮💨 However, I did get a good chunk done! Might take me a week or so from here because I have a busy week ahead of me.
Oh well! Also, this kid is bigger than I realized, apparently. Lol

Someone is big mad that it's cold at my desk today.
(Yes, I know she has pin feathers. She's cranky and won't let me get them.)

I made this for the kid who was supposed to end up in the NICU years ago. It was my riff on those little jellyfish everyone was making for NICU babies. The stuffing is hideous and lumpy by now, but they refuse to let me refill it.

I did the math on my Storygraph goals, and I think I'm going to try to catch up for this year. I can absolutely read 38 400-pg books before the end of the year.
Right?
