Oh just some things.

Tuesday, 3 April 2012
It's been a while since I last posted. Things are a-changin' around here and it's hard to find time to sit down and write a blog post.

 I have read at least two radical feminist self-help books in the last three weeks and I've talked a lot in that time too to lovely people. There's so much change in the air, I'm feeling pretty good about it!

Also:

I made a pair of slippers out of Ella Rae Mega.


So pretty much things are great.


Also, I have spent so much time in the last three weeks with lovely people. One of whom I have taken a photograph of. She was speaking at a Trayvon Martin solidarity rally and her name is aly. It was pretty amazing. Everyone who spoke that day was amazing. 

Here are the rest of the photos I took that day. They weren't of every speaker (because I was also filming) but there are quite a few lovely faces.

aly's wearing a knitted thing. See, it's relevant. 

I will try to post more knitting-related things soon. 






What? Another pair of toe-up Noro socks?

Why would I even do such a thing? ANOTHER pair of Noro socks?

 The store has settled and I'm taking my knit-break! I started these things last night and they're knitting up quickly. I am using Noro kureyon and 5.5mm double pointed needles. I am planning on felting these suckers. 

That's right I use my boobs to hold my yarn sometimes. That's not weird right?
I look like I'm giving some sort of secret yarn victory hand-signal. Wut wut! 
Noro is like crack. The colour changes are addictive! Instead of "just one more row" it's "just one more colour change!"
Long striping wool is dangerous. 

These ones were knit out of Noro's silk garden and I knit them over a weekend several months ago.
Damn straight. I don't have time to knit socks out of sock weight wool.
