I took a needle felting class today. It was extremely cathartic and satisfying, and I'm pretty happy with the results.

Slow but steady progress on this shawl I'm making to wrap up in.

I've never spun anything before, but somehow I ended up the best of the Worst(ed weight yarn) #spinning #handspun #yarn #worsted
It's taken A LOT of work to get it here, but I'm really proud of my veggie garden this year. It's a small thing, but in such a scary, uncertain time it's really satisfying to help nurture something beautiful and watch it grow.

My first attempt at spinning has been plied. This has been such a fun process to learn!

Arwen will never pass on a good nap in a comfy chair.
She is done! This was a very cathartic project to work on.

Arwen: "Can I offer you the opportunity to give me belly rubs in this trying time?"

Finished weaving my first towel in green and white organic cotton. Creating something in the face of so much uncertainty and wilful destruction feels like an act of resistance at this point, however small. I hope you find those sustaining acts of resistance too.
