Expecting +45C (+113F) on Boxing day where I live. (South Australia). Looks like a day of staying inside with the air conditioning on full blast.

This is what grains of sand look like when magnified 100 to 300 times. Dr. Gary Greenberg's photographs magnify grains of sand 100 to 300 times, exposing swirling microscopic shells, eroded crystals and colorful coral fragments.

A hot +35C day here in South Australia to model my newest knit 🧶 ☀️
A puff sleeve, waist-length cardigan. Knit top down with saddle shoulder construction. One strand of unspun yarn and one strand of Silk/Mohair held together. My own design.

Does anyone else here ferment their own milk Kefir, or is it just my Eastern European roots? If you also live in Australia, I’d be happy to send you some Kefir grains. Yummy and good for you 😊

Swatching for my next knitting project… I think it wants to be a stocking stitch top with this lace edging at the bottom. One strand of lace merino held with one strand of silk/mohair.

Yay! My Summer Breeze knitting pattern is ready to be tech-edited. If you are an experienced knitter and are interested in test knitting this pattern please send me a message. I used one strand of Drops Kid-Mohair/Silk yarn.
