TheBon: Quilting assistant. Best BobCat friend.
TheBon: Progress on week one; log cabin. With my dry pandemic hand for scale (no matter how much lotion I use, I can't keep up right now.) 30 of 75 pieces in this square. #MiniSeriesSAL #AlisonGlass #GiucyGiuce
TheBon: Grabbing joy where I can find it. I got this wee planter from @oddfauna during their "ECCC is cancelled" sale and it is a delight, peeking at me every time I wash my hands. (The dragon...my mom bought it for me on a business trip to San Francisco long eno
TheBon: Two posts in one day! Forcing myself into some things to try and minimise my trauma. Kicking off the #ESKGnomesFKAL and getting settled onto my own island in the new Animal Crossing. Barely got into it tonight but it will be there for me tomorrow.
TheBon: the BobCat loves sunshine.
TheBon: I bought these patterns last year during a sale and I'm so excited that they're a sew along now. #MINISERIESSAL, #ALISONGLASS, and #GIUCYGIUCE
TheBon: It was one of THOSE DAYS today. Tomorrow will be better, after some good sleep.
TheBon: March 2020
TheBon: My grey hair is starting to make itself just a little visible. Fresh haircut day also means blown-straight hair day. Pin is the retired leopard moth pin from @shopshoal
TheBon: I do love a good blocking and man blocking pins = ❤️. Bff cowl, seedpod link, knit in malabrigo rios in Paris night (leftovers from that volt mini me sweater). #ESKTinyOwlKnitsKAL #EatSleepKnit #TeamFiberFawns
TheBon: The Mittening. @spunrightround in snapdragon and @sweetgeorgia in charcoal (both yarns are discontinued now, I believe) #EatSleepKnit #TeamFiberFawns #ESKSkeindeerMittsFKAL
TheBon: February 2020.
TheBon: A little Friday morning #ESKUglySweater coloring. The laws of knitting stitches need not apply here. 😂 #TeamFiberFawns #EatSleepKnit
TheBon: The sample sweater I'm knitting for @cozy_yarn is knit in such a way that it's a bit blankety right now. Dark cloud by joji locatelli, woolkfolk luft in 4 L.
TheBon: Up early today to bake up some pretzel and pretzel rolls (half salted, half everything but the bagel seasoning) for Saturday d&d. Dropped the razor blade from my lame into the garbage disposal and also trapped a big chunk of my hair in the car door on the
TheBon: @thatonelibrarian and I MAY share strong color preferences.
TheBon: Long, hard day but I have a serious squishy hug all done for our cold snap. Cozy Winter shawl, knit as part of an @eatsleepknitters FKAL right before my surgery last fall, in @malabrigoyarn chunky in apricot (which is a bit less yellow than it photographs
TheBon: When I promise a cake, I come through with cake. King Arthur flour's best birthday cake with a chocolate cream cheese frosting (NOT the frosting from the recipe which I found spectacularly awful), and sprinkles (including tiny TARDIS sprinkles from a now
TheBon: I was going to wait until tomorrow to post this but I'll do it now since people are curious about the cropped version in my monthly marker photo. It's my final 2019 FO. This is volt mini me by @knittingandgin (mini me is the kid sizing, it also comes in a
TheBon: January 2020
TheBon: Happy New Year from two humans who aren't scared by firework noises and one BobCat who is (so loud this year, the illegal fireworks.)
TheBon: When you're this handsome, it doesn't matter if you can't always keep your tongue behind your teeth. Thanks @thatonelibrarian for letting me scritch your puppers!
TheBon: It's Lego gingerbread house time! Trash talk, garbage mouth, gingerbooms!
TheBon: Traditional Christmas Eve burgers, this year it's the baby you can chive my car burger from Bob's burgers. On fresh baked buns (these have trader Joe's everything but the bagel seasoning on top.)
TheBon: Posting my #TopNine2019 today, even though there's still a week of 2019, because I don't want to risk my sister's wedding getting bumped off. 😜 The only thing missing from my grid is D, looks like. Blanket, octopus, blanket, t
TheBon: Bittersweet. Finished. (Except blocking but I need to totally rearrange the yarn room for that. Ends are woven and will be trimmed after blocking.) #ESKTrackerKAL #TeamElephelt #EatSleepKnit #NortheasterlyBlanket @eatsleepknitters
TheBon: A little bittersweet, I just wound the last skein for my #ESKTrackerKAL #NortheasterlyBlanket.
TheBon: When you know and love several humans who have birthdays near Christmas, you (or I) buy special glitter winter taco paper for their birthday gifts (from Target, but I bought it last year.)
TheBon: The sparkle plenty tree is back in action! Not decorated yet but I barely squeezed in the time it took to set it up while D was at d&d tonight. And sparkle and lights is good enough for today.
TheBon: Got proper fancy for D's work holiday party tonight. Big party, lots of excellent people, and I'm posting the photo because I spent way too long getting fancy and I want to remember it.
