I spin, knit, crochet, weave, and read a lot. I’m using this so I’m not constantly texting my friends with my projects. The dog and cat who own me are also featured occasionally. #handspinning #knitting #weaving #crochet #reading #fiberarts

I plied my #tdf2025 spin! It didn’t go according to plan - I expected mostly solids and very little barber poleing. I love it. I already have a knit idea for it.

Skein of lace weight yarn in blues, greens, and yellows.

The same skein held as a swirl so the blue is more visible.

I’m watching The Reassembler and plying. Cause I am a wild time.

🤣 so true.

And check Facebook Marketplace for stuff. Some people are selling their belongings in anticipation. (What are they going to do with money after being raptured? This is no time for rational questioning)

Angie @delendaestcarthago.bsky.social · 16d

Apparently Tuesday.

Thank you!

Angie @delendaestcarthago.bsky.social · 20d

Thank you! Surprisingly, only three months. The pattern was really easy to follow.

Angie @delendaestcarthago.bsky.social · 20d

Thank you! I’m delighted with it.

Finished and it’s glorious! This is the Summer Rain Shawl by Julia Decker.

A woman in all black faces the camera with a lace and beaded bright blue shawl over her shoulders. The shawl is a crescent shape.

Close up of the widest part of the beaded lace bright blue shawl.

A woman holds a bright blue beaded lace shawl as far as her arms reach. Her arms aren’t long enough. You can see the details in the lace because the wall behind her is light.

Thank you!

I fell in love with them on the listing and had to wait a week for another potential sale to fall through. Worth it.

Thanks to a lovely person who was downsizing, I now have an antique Swedish Hjulbäck wheel and an antique Norwegian wheel (possibly from Hadeland). They spin beautifully.

Relatable. There’s a pen show next month and I’m already planning for the inks and paper I’m getting.

I love the clothes! If I could figure out where to find women’s hats like the ones on the show, I would be delighted.

Angie @delendaestcarthago.bsky.social · Sep 3

It’s lovely stuff. Beautifully dyed.

Angie @delendaestcarthago.bsky.social · Sep 3

It’s such a pretty braid! It’s Polwarth dyed by Hilltop Cloud. The colorway is called “Autumn”. hilltopcloudshop.co.uk

I think spinning at trivia is going to be a thing now. I got a fair amount done and I might be able to finish this section tomorrow.

That is such a good idea. Maybe I need to get a dog for my dog…
