I'm excited it is Scorpio season. Scorpios are passionate and assertive people with determination and focus, and this tie really reflects that.

It's interesting how many of our public holidays are commemorating/ celebrating cruelty, death or exploitation. Anyway, here's a tie with some horses on it, happy Cup Day.

When I look at the Book of Kells my first thought is "I wish someone would put that on a tie".

I love reading about the music scene of the 70s and 80s eg Daisy Jones or The Songbook of Benny Lament. This is told from the point of view of someone who was there at the beginning and thinks she should get more credit than she does. So good

It's like the designer did a rough draft to tidy up later, but that ended up being the final design. #badtiemonday #workwear #crimesagainstfashion

I wanted something bright and happy to cheer up this Monday. I think this tie was homemade, it's quite a light fabric and no interfacing was used. I feel like it looks a bit like something a clown would wear. 👔

As a follow up to last week's small diseased Paisley, I have some large Paisley, possibly also diseased. I love Paisley.

I live in St Kilda, a very urban area and it makes me so happy that sulphur crested cockatoos sometimes come and play on my balcony and power lines. 🕊️

I put all my freshly skeined yarns into this bag prior to washing. One of them seems underplyed.

One of my favourite kinds of bad ties are the type that looks fine from a distance, and then you take a closer look and think "what is that?". In this case, are those tiny teeth?

Last weekend I had a great time at the Australian Sheep and Wool show, and now I'm back and wearing a tie made of silk, but woven with sheep

I like the way the little canoe things seem to move when you look at this from different angles.

This week's tie looks ok, until you realise the fabric is sideways. As a bonus, here's a tie that's not so bad, but why is it so wrinkled?

#showmeyourknits is garter stitch. My most recent finish was Andrea Mowry's Wool and Honey. Theoretically knit in the round, but I knit it flat because I'm not a masochist. 🧶 #knitsky #craftsky

Just like last week, this week's #badtiemonday features uneven stripes. I particularly like / loath the black wiggles in the widest stripe.
