I'm just glad I finished them
Deidre's Double Moss Socks
https://randomgeekery.org/post/2021/01/deidres-double-moss-socks/
Got a good start #knitting her socks.
That yarn was tough to wind. 45% bamboo, 40% wool, 15% nylon. Maybe wool content contributed to tangling?
Feels fine under the fingers though!
Steady #knitting progress today considering that I'm still a little out of practice. That's some happy yarn. Will make a happy head.
I think this is my first time #knitting a hemmed edge with a color change. I thought through it so many times I assumed I'd done it before!
It's not a hat yet but it's clearly a thing I am #knitting so we officially have Progress.
#knitting a hat!
Casting on! Dang, ran out of tail yarn.
Casting on! Oh I misread the numbers. Too big for a hat, too small for a sweater.
Casting on! Dangit I just knit two rows with the tail yarn.
Casting on! Overcompensated and ran out of tail yarn.
Casting on! —
Spring's here: birds sing, pandemic rages. Time to update the #introduction.
disclaimers:
Finished #knitting and blocking my mom’s Christmas scarf. Yeah it’s later than intended.
Anyways, time to mail it!
introduction, long toot
#introduction time! Just gonna adjust the one I've used elsewhere.

* Non-code hobbies include #drawing, #knitting, and #crochet
* There is no intended theme, brand, or purpose to my toots. Just what's on my brain that moment. Maybe #coffee, or the occasional #selfcare note. If you want consistency, I'm a bad choice to follow.
