That ACTUALLY happened to my friend, who is a nurse of Filipino descent living in Texas—but it was a neighbor asking if she could clean her house🤦🏼‍♀️

Decided not to take Yago on my jog/walks anymore. He’s pretty resistant until we turn to go home, when he suddenly becomes the official mascot of Usain Bolt. #dogsky #havanese

The Strait of IRAN is open, just not the Strait of Hormuz, you see.

This is the second Sophie Scarf I’ve knitted, and I actually think I’ll get another one out of a single skein of Bamboo Pop! #knitsky

Each year our 6th graders go on a one week camp. For some, it’s the 1st time away from family. I spotted this gem on their teacher’s desk today❤️🐶 #dogsky #teachersky #teachsky

I shouldn't have.

I really, really shouldn't have.

It goes against the basic rules of librarianship.

But I couldn't help it. There's a certain type of person who, when they ask if we have any books by Rush Limbaugh, makes me respond with, "Could you spell that? I'm not familiar with them."

Watercolor painting of a beach beneath a cloudy sky. There is a motorboat seen in the distance.

I love winterly beach scenes. They can look so surreal. You can get both cloudy skies at the same time with intense light because of snow lying everywhere. This is me trying to capture that mood and also sneaking in a cool boat! 🛥️

Watercolor painting of a macaw on paper. The parrot is looking at the viewer, sitting on a tree.

With parrots being so much fun to paint, I went for a scarlet macaw this time. As a kid I thought parrots are supposed to be red, since movies like Aladdin depict them that way.

😂 I think I had been knitting for 2-3 years when I did this. My mother-in-law had to sew the arms in (see how small at the top) and sew the band on which was a pain. Some stitches «disappeared» due to tension issues common with beginners, but overall it was a good early project.

While helping my mom, I’m using up 3 of her huge skeins of acrylic in a pretty linen shade. I usually knit only wool (living in Norway), so this is new to me. Not hating it—but it’s knitting up quite dense. Curious how others find working with acrylic? #knitsky

I’m in the US helping my mom through some health issues. She pulled out this beast I knit her years ago—back when skill was low but expectations were high. Honestly, it’s not too bad. #showmeyourknits #strandedcolorwork
