I like making stuff and nerd things and read a lot of books. I also have no idea what I'm doing.
Playing D&D online with friends while working on a sweater for my son. He chose the blue, yellow, and green and I added the cream to help break up the blue and green, because they are very similar in person. Hoping to get it done by "winter sweater day" for his school on Thursday. We'll see!

I have missed my knitting and D&D group so much. Love how fast this cardigan is knitting up and it's going to be very squishy and cozy when it's done. 🧶

Current read: Anathema by Keri Lake. So far I like it, about 25% of the way through. It definitely has strong gothic vibes and the magic system and world building are interesting. I also love a weird crow girl.

Hello again, Bsky. Life has been busy, but I've missed having a creative community to engage with. I'm currently working on a Seaglass Cardi by @woolandpine.bsky.social using some Knit Picks Swish DK in Dove mixed with various fingering/DK in cool colors. It's so squishy, I'm already obsessed.

Sharing this because I'm seeing a lot of nymphs lately... If you see a spotted lanternfly and it's not native to your area (which I think is China and Vietnam), KILL IT. Here's a picture with the various life stages, I'm seeing the early stage nymphs right now (black with white spots). Smoosh them!

Another recent finish: Sorrowland by Rivers Solomon. This was beautifully written and I could not put it down, but it definitely does not hold its punches in regards to the violence that is humanity. If you can handle body horror, I highly recommend giving this a read. (Image pulled from Google.)

Hammajang Luck ended up being a lot of fun, I really enjoyed it.

Current project on the hook: Amiata Pullover by Sandra Gutierrez. Just started on the first sleeve! Can't wait to wear this, my swatch draped beautifully and it'll be a great lightweight sweater.
