A cormorant, what an auspicious sign!

Sorry guys, I know I haven’t been posting much and it’s gonna have to be another low effort one tonight

Just a little nature ASMR from the ephemeral streams of late winter to tide you over while I wait for my brain to thaw out

Everyone tell happy birthday! We dipped our toes into maple tapping this year and were pretty successful for our first attempt! Yiassou was, of course, extremely helpful as well. I bottled up the last of the syrup about a month ago, and it took me this long to get around to sharing this ahaha. I’ve gotten up to other things in the off season but that’s for a different day

Went to my friend Peggy’s today for sheep and alpaca shearing! Didn’t get home in time to put together all the videos I took during the process, but here’s some honeybees enjoying the wood squill on her property in the late afternoon sun

I can neither confirm nor deny that this is a hint to a future something

Also keep an eye on my story for my annual May Basket event 👀

So proud of this first challenge day team!

Introducing a very special and limited edition colorway on sock weight: Artemis!

I got absorbed by that one photo taken of the moon by an independent photographer and have been very emotional over the Artemis II mission recently. I’ve also been stuck on dyeing yarn recently and this helped me break out of that.

I also have gotten into thrifting a lot of vintage buttons for people to add to their finished garments! I made these little cardigans for the paper packaging, 3 different designs to collect!

You can find both of these featured in my booth at .and.found.market tomorrow at , where I’ll be selling my yarn, visibly mended pieces, and demonstrating on my spinning wheel! Come by 11-5!

This year, The Mainely Spinners team is doing their competition day for the International Back-to-Back Wool Challenge early! They’ll be competing this Saturday, January 17th at the Milford Town Hall starting at 8 AM. I’ll be there to cheerlead and help out in any way I can this weekend, and I’d love it if you could donate what you can, either by buying the team’s handknits or entering the raffle for last year’s Challenge Day sweater!
