Northern Lights ✨ These truly do look like the northern lights we saw in Iceland…and I TOTALLY FORGOT until my son reminded me. When he saw them he said, “that’s the Northern Lights!” He’s right.

#BHM Day 9: Black Friars 🧶

Not all Black figures in medieval European art are symbolic, allegorical, or exoticized. Some are simply there bc Black people were there.

Side-by-side image of a peach-toned yarn skein and an 18th-century portrait of a young Black woman. The yarn is a soft solid peach with a pale pink undertone, photographed against a textured green background. Beside it is a painted portrait of a young woman wearing a light peach dress, a pale pink headwrap tied at the crown, and a short pearl necklace. She faces slightly to the side, with a calm expression, set against a muted blue background.

I know a lot of my colorways are more intense/vibrant, but this one is a study in restraint, softness, and tries to reflect her dignity, the qualities that endure even when the archive withholds her name. 🧶

When the hat is cozy but the message is revolutionary.

Glow responsibly. Eat the rich.

This glow in the dark (with UV light) was a commissioned hat.

Roving spun by candlelight is very medieval and I dig that idea but I also dig having electricity. Actually if you spin the rainbow one under UV light it will glow! Anyway thank you for your support and for being a spinning tester. Below "Monastic Sunset" and "Rainbow Magi". 🧶

Bottom panel: Several skeins of dark brown variegated yarn are arranged on a white textured surface surrounded by festive holiday decorations. The yarn has colorful Donegal tweed flecks in blue, yellow, red, and cream. The skeins range from deep espresso brown to warmer reddish brown. Around them are shiny Christmas ornaments in red, gold, purple, and silver, along with strands of metallic beads. Top panel: an image from the Macclesfield Psalter shows a pale deer-like creature with antlers pulling a figure in a sleigh and person is pulling the reindeer-like creature and wearing an orange tunic

Whether it becomes a cowl, mitts, a hat, or something entirely your own, it brings a little medieval magic and a reminder that joy, like marginalia, can be found in the corners, if we let it.

May your winter be warm, whimsical, and full of unexpected beauty.🧶
