This is my forever project. I’m making something for me, so it is on the bottom of the priority list and I use it to fill the gaps between other projects. I decided to make spirals (I like spirals), and sew them all together, because it gives me flexibility if I change goals mid stream. Current goal is to make an ombre vest. I have made two hand spun yarn cakes into nålbound spirals, and have two more yarn cakes ready for nålbinding.
My paperwhite narcussus are blooming a month earlier than last year. Yup. In November. Yup, last year they bloomed in December. I planted the bulbs the previous winter. I hope they persist and multiply, because I rather like no maintenance flowers that bloom at weird times. It amuses me, and that is something to be thankful for.
I finished another cake of yarn and thought it would be fun to show the pictorial progression of fluff to stuff.
I don’t know who needs to know this, but if your almond butter is more like syrup than butter, mixing in some almond flour does wonders. I recently tried a new brand of almond butter, and it was the “mix first” kind, with the layer of oil on top. When mixed, it was spreadable, but just kept spreading. What a mess. So I stirred in some almond flour and I can now put it on my morning apple without it crawling off. It is the little things.
I probably should have broken down the jack-o-lanterns before putting them in the compost pile, because now the compost pile has personality. Yikes.
