Gems and yarn, bourbon and cruising. With a dash of tarot and writing. Not necessarily in that order. #lapidary #writing #tarot #crochet

The handmade, human qualities of your work are more valuable than they've ever been. Don't doubt that for a second.

During this season of giving, let’s do what we can to give back to the communities that have given us so much. From our family to yours, have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

I want to order this!! Would one of you more knowledgeable knitters advise on the proper weight for a hat? (I do not trust my search skills today.)

Well. And here I thought I was beyond the capacity to be surprised.

Do a search for holiday tweed yarn. You may not find an exact match but I spotted a couple that looked close. Good luck!

Not all essential personnel get paid during a shutdown. Congress frequently approves back pay once the shutdown ends. Until then a lot of essential staff work unpaid.

Yup, it's Red Heart. I dont remember the proper name for the colorway but its informal name would be camouflage pink.

Sending love and hugs, and strength for you to be happy being you. (p.s. flowy pants are the best!)

Do internet search on lifted knot stitch. I have no talent for explaining how-to, sorry. I believe that stitch is what you're looking for. Happy knitting! 🧢

I do think not enough people know this - everything after a question mark in a URL is garbage. You can delete it all and the URL still works fine. Strip that shit out when sharing anything.
