My boss sent us home. My bf at the time was in Boston and had been supposed to fly to Singapore that day. I sat in my apartment alone watching the news. And knitting. I cast on a chunky sweater and finished almost all of it that day. And then I never touched it again. It sat and sat until one day I decided - this sweater has too much in it. You’re never going to finish it. And I put it in a large garbage bag and threw it all away. #knitting #FinishorFrogAlong

Pretty much everyone who has ever scrapped a project would use those materials for another project. I have to admit that I have on occasion donated them, and in cases where I just couldn’t see myself using those materials (or they were too hard to use again), I have tossed them. #FinishOrFrogAlong
I finished the Riggies Cowl I made with yarn I bought in Shetland from West Lynne. I didn’t do a perfect job of stitching up the back (that sewing is my least favorite activity) but it doesn’t bother me. It stands up really well (the pattern does say you have to use the right texture of yarn to get that effect) and fits exactly how I wanted it to. #knitting #shetland #yarn #FiberArts #TextileArts
Today I read Legends & Librarians (Pandora Pierce) and enjoyed it so much I raced through it and then I read the sequel, Myths & Manuscripts. Perfect cozy fantasy with magic in book and libraries plus romance. Yes I read *both* today. Now listening to make that joy last a little longer. #Bookstodon
I’m fascinated.
