Taking out the eye is such a PITA. I'd love to have one of those magic eye-getting spoons!

That'd have to be one sharp spoon! LOL, I'm skeptical.

The antidote to despair is action - whatever action helps you cope. LOL I have that jerk-off Bentz on my speed dial. It gives me great pleasure to call his office on the daily.

And you also can't just pop it out with a spoon like in the horror novels. Stephen King has CLEARLY never taken out an eyeball IRL.

A gnome for my mom. This is an Imagined Landscapes pattern that uses slip stitch to make an "embroidery" pattern on the cloak. 🧶

New roommate Peanut! Aka "pig". Our friends rescued him from the side of the road where someone had dumped him. There's a special place in hell for people like that. #guineapig

Look at this cool turtle! She's pretty cute and is a really fun pattern to make. This critter burned through some random Jamieson's spindrift. Pattern by @joansgarden.bsky.social #knitting #knittedtoys 🧶

Then we got ANOTHER telework policy because they f-ed up the first one. So, extra time spent. Government efficiency!

Surprise surprise, another poorly thought out executive order. They're just throwing stuff at the wall to see what sticks. Unfortunately, we are the ones who will have to clean up the shit-smear.

You get a sty in the eye from peeing in the alley! LOL, maybe that's a local saying.

It is curved intarsia. I thought I needed to include an example but later found out I didn't. Plus the stitching doesn't look great. These swatches are evaluated on technique, so I was only making life harder for myself. The sty had to go 😔.

Intarsia design for the TKGA master hand knitting program "peeing in the alley". Sty removed for final submission 😂 #knitting #🧶 #tkga #intarsia
