And, frankly, it’s dangerous for our POC friends to protest AND they’ve been fighting for themselves for too long. Since the GOP only seems to care about older white people, we’re the ones that need to speak up. 2/2

I’ve seen a lot of concern about the lack of POC and Gen Z at the protests yesterday - that it was mostly white older people. I see it as those with priveledge showing up for those who can’t. Young people are having a hard enough time becoming adults in a society stacked against them. 1/2
The lack of mainstream media attention doesn’t change a thing: Americans showed up, and that’s all that matters. Hopefully the media catches up with us soon. #NationalDayOfProtest
Happy to assist any of my friends who want to learn to knit during these trying times! There's something grounding about using ancient techniques our ancestresses used to create and comfort.
Heck yeah! Having two varying projects helps avoid project burnout.
Thou shalt accept that DEI didn't hold your career back -- you're just mid, bro.
Repost this if you can to help ease some anxiety being experienced by these communities. #resist
A light purple long chunky turtleneck sweater
An oversized v-neck sweater in alternating stripes of purple and hot pink
A a long crew neck sweater in shade Of grey and purple
A cropped cable knit cardigan in royal purple
Here’s a few sweaters I’ve made in the past year. #showmeyourknits #knitting 🧶
This has been on my list for a while - what yarn did you use?
Where did you get this sweatshirt?
A picture of the Temperance tarot card from the Deviant Moon deck. It features an abstract naked blue female form with wings and a moon shaped head pouring a liquid from a horn into a petal shaped dish. She is standing on a desolate brown and beige beach.
My cards schooled me this morning - this card definitely came at the perfect time and stopped a foolish course of action. Musta been that extra charge from the wolf moon. #tarotsky #witchsky
It’s been a ride which permanently tilted the angle from which I view the world. But I have found strength and a strange beauty in loss.
Same, sister. Same. 💜
Sharing my most special shawl for #showmeyourknits. I started it when my dad went into the hospital from complications from a tic bite - the pattern “Don’t Panic” was very fitting. He passed a few days later and this shawl helped me process a lot of the grief. 🧶 by The Blue Brick Crafts. #knitting
A cartoon by Mike Luckovich shows a large blue gulf labeled "Gulf of America," separating two masses of densely packed dots representing people. A yellow banner on the left side reads "Informed Voters," while a yellow banner on the right side reads "Uninformed Voters." The image humorously depicts a divide between informed and uninformed voters.
Perfectly depicted.
Anyone right now on either side that is doing anything other than offering care, support, and empathy is garbage.
Hey, #knitsky! I want to make a large cable-knit sweater for my husband, but I'm having trouble sourcing the yarn. What would you recommend for a non-acrylic worsted that won't break the bank? #knitting #yarn #fiberarts
Hi Bluesky! Here’s my awkward first post. I spend my days slinging mics and my weekends singing into them. I am a birdmom to two lovable parrots and the partner of an incredible man and drummer. I love to knit. And I’m a little witchy.
It’s a travesty.
Lemme get me feet under me a bit more!
