Gory Details: Adventures from the Dark Side of Science | Erika Engelhaupt

#KnittersOfLitsy #LitsyCrafters

Finished my cardigan yesterday, washed and power-blocked it (blocked it, used lots of towels to wick up the moisture and pressed carefully with a hot iron), because I wanted to wear it today.

Pattern is Seaglass Cardigan by Wool&Pine.

Tagged the book peeking out from my shelves.

Butterfinger You finished!!! I love it. 1mo

ReadingOver50 Nope, I do not 1mo

Lindy @ReadingOver50 Until I read Peter Mendelsund‘s book some years ago, I assumed everyone visualized, but a member of my book club was indignant about his findings because, like you, she doesn‘t see images.

Lindy @Butterfinger Thanks Tammy! ☺️ 1mo

ReadingOver50 @Lindy I have never been able to visualize things in my mind, and I was well into adulthood when I realized most people can. 1mo

Lindy @ReadingOver50 I guess it‘s different if you never had it. I have really been missing the image component of reading, and being able to visualize in everyday life, so I am glad that my post-concussion vision therapy is helping me regain the ability. 1mo

Thanks for all the feedback last week, it spurned me on and I've finished all the ribbing. What's left now is the double stitching of the librar card part.

The Power of Knitting: Stitching Together Our Lives in a Fractured World | Loretta Napoleoni

pick

Loved Every Stitch 😏
This was my first introduction to the idea of craftivism! I love it. This was a fun journey through the history of knitting, with a little crochet thrown in at the end. There were bits that were also memoir of the author that really enriched the whole book. My favorite part was the part toward the end about the knitting and crocheting brain.
👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

GingerAntics My only complaint is that I wish it had been longer. I needed more yarn craft love! Absolutely worth the read. #knitting #crochet #crochetersoflitsy #knittersoflitsy #craftersoflitsy #yarnarts 5mo

The Power of Knitting: Stitching Together Our Lives in a Fractured World | Loretta Napoleoni

This book has caused me to take out my knitting needles after 3 years… it is not going well. I‘m not exactly back at square one, but oh boy do I have issues with my stitches being WAY too tight again. I also ended up picking up a stitch somewhere at one point, then later dropping two, so it‘s been a wild ride today. Maybe I shall forever be a crocheter. 🤷🏼‍♀️

AnnCrystal 😜😂🤪 Knitting drives me looney...I vote for crochet 😉👌🏼🧶🧵💝. 5mo

GingerAntics @AnnCrystal I‘m definitely better at crochet. I‘ve also heard that you can crochet faster than you can knit. Dunno if that‘s actually true or not… for some reason, I feel like I‘ve failed at knitting somehow. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I‘m a bleeding perfectionist. 5mo

GingerAntics @AnnCrystal I also tend to drop and pick up stitched while crocheting, too. I‘m not sure what my problem is, but my stitches never look as clean and obvious as pictures and videos online. 5mo

AnnCrystal Crocheting feels faster, and my work are not perfect with, but I 'm cool with that. For me, enjoying the craft is most important, and perfection is completely accidental 😂😉👌🏼💝💝💝. 5mo

GingerAntics @AnnCrystal totally fair. I found something online that might help with my tension issues and help me relax my hands a bit. I‘m also very excited to try some knee yarn that doesn‘t unravel as you use it, so I can practice with it. 5mo

AnnCrystal That's neat, hadn't tried that yarn. I do need to work on loosening my tension too.

I picked up a packet of Clover Weaving Sticks some time ago, but they seem intimidating. Have you tried these? 5mo

GingerAntics @AnnCrystal weaving sticks? I‘m intrigued 5mo

AnnCrystal @GingerAntics there are thick (jumbo) and thin (fine) options. If you try them, let me know. I haven't made a real effort to learn how to use these 👀☺️👍🏼💝. They say it's like having a loom in your pocket. 5mo

GingerAntics @AnnCrystal I can‘t said what I was expecting, but I know it wasn‘t this. https://youtube.com/shorts/niUM0g0y-_Q?si=Fjh7VbiaPjs6tvsY 5mo

AnnCrystal 👏🏼🤩 @GingerAntics Thank You for sharing, that is an excellent video you found. I need to give this a try, but the simplicity of crocheting has me spoiled 😂👍🏼🧶🧵🧶💝. (edited) 5mo

GingerAntics @AnnCrystal oh yeah. There is something about the simplicity of it that makes it relaxing. 5mo

AnnCrystal @GingerAntics truth 👏🏼😉👍🏼💝💝💝. 5mo

The Man in the Brown Suit | Agatha Christie

I‘m very behind in my reading this month. So, in addition to my physical book, I did a little #audioknitting tonight. This is from a mystery gnome knit along #MKAL with Imagined Landscapes. Perfect for one of the Queen of Mystery‘s books.
My Professor is pretty cute.
I‘m enjoying this Christie so far.
