Thirteen months on T! 🏳️‍⚧️

(the consensus seems to be counting each month is ok up to 18 months, like with babies)

Well, since it turns out I can't take female HRT* for the menopausal brain fog that is driving me bananas, I shall have to venture into the wild west of vitamins and supplements. Wish me luck!

Second finished project of 2025: the Swirly Rib Hat.

I didn't do this on purpose, I swear, but the cool swirl in the ribbing is best viewed from above; I think I've made the perfect hat for a wheelchair user to show off to standing folks!

Pattern/yarn details 👇🏻

Catching up on Traitors from last night (dear gods, the drama) with shitty dance music blaring from the kitchen (just curtains between the two) and I have no words for how much I cannot wait to live by myself again.

I've had the past fifteen years at the house sharing coalface and I'm done.

Sewing jobs for today: one coat loop to repair (or possibly replace) and one to sew on to a coat that appears to have never had a loop at all, which rather boggles my mind.

Small jobs, but important. I hate not being able to hang my coat up on a hook!

Today's soundtrack (with moments of looking up from my sewing/knitting for the pretty bits) is a binge watch of the new series of Digging for Britain on iPlayer. I love hearing about good archeology and the amazing stuff that turns up. 🦴🪓🏺

First completed knitting project of 2025! 🧶

Took me three goes to do the top, but it turned out ok in the end. First time with an i-cord bind off, which is a bit of a faff but not difficult. Looks good too, hugging the lip of the HWB.
