phew, no cracks this time. 300° for 12 minutes in the exact center of the oven is the magic timing

these have mocha shells & salty hazelnut cream tea filling

I finished one sweater this year. that's better than zero sweaters, which is my usual number. this was a good road trip project.

this is a hexagon sweater with a shawl collar and a pocket. it is too big in a very cozy way.

#crochet
I'm wearing a large, long grey and burgundy crochet cardigan. I have my hands in front of me but the sleeves are very long and the cuffs hide my hands. I'm standing with my arms outstretched slightly, displaying the stripes on my grey and red cardigan. It has a large pocket on the right side. I am leaning forward slightly, with my hand holding the two sides of my cardigan together. The cardigan has a deep shawl collar with a cozy ribbed texture. I have my hand in the pocket of my large grey and red cardigan. the sleeve is voluminous, and it is bunched up around my elbow, just above the pocket.

I'm working on consistency with this skein. practice makes perfect. ✨

I love watching the sheepdogs run around. they are clearly having so much fun.

recently I've been learning about double two-tie twill. at some point I should try a new treadling but I like these fancy shapes too much

🧶 more of this #TurnedTwill experiment - what if contrast stripes? what _if_ contrast stripes! these windows are different than the non-stripey windows, in a fun way.

blue and white stripey cloth in progress on a table loom. the cloth has a pattern of darker and lighter alternating blocks, broken up by thick and thin light stripes.

I have an art notebook on mastodon where I post my #knitting #crochet #spinning #weaving and other projects

for now, this is just going to be my "liking shitposts account" because I don't know if my local server can handle bridge traffic or not.

hello 👋poking my head in from mastodon, just to see what's going on here

these are my cats, pearl and rosie, and their favorite blanket.
a beige tabby with blue eyes and a brown tabby with yellow eyes are lying on a chair with a pile of blankets. the brown tabby is lying down on her side, winking, with one paw extended towards the camera. the beige tabby is sitting behind and on top of the brown tabby, with one paw buried in her fur.
