Tuesday. Full day. Hot too.

Today's Tuesday Knitting Group had two new wonderful members, one knitting a resistance hat, one washcloths for a homeless shelter.  The yarn for the hat was donated in another library by a non knitter who bought quantities and is giving them to knitters for the hats, ahead of No Kings day in a couple of weeks. 

One new member is a musician involved in opera and recitals on piano, with an established member who's an opera singer. 

The other is in medical tech. High powered group we have here!



Here's the inside of a muff, all the yarn spun dyed and knitted by the maker 


Here's the outside of the muff being modeled 

Toad's swimsuit, current spiral sock and teddy bear being repaired 

He got new paw pads. 

Convo ranged over resistance, newsletters, comment period to CDC, visualizing, AI, larping, cosplay, food insecurity, the Greek middle voice, children's opera, early music, and much more. 

Home, in 80+ degree f sunshine, to a pot of tea, and Textiles and Tea with Margery Erickson, dyer and weaver, who creates yard goods for her clothing design.

 







She sells her patterns for the animal and nature motifs, and teaches on various looms, and she's a lot of fun to be around.

I had the last of the baguette, toasted with a boiled egg. I definitely have to make them again, wonderful crust.

Happy day everyone, mine certainly was.
