This is Mokita. It's just a shawl. It's also a word meaning "the truth that everyone knows but no one tells about" - in this case, mental illness; in this case, what killed my mother. It's also a fundraiser for Mind. I hope you will read my explanation, through the proverbial Link in Profile, and maybe buy the pattern (100% of proceeds will be donated). 💧 #endthestigma #mokitashawl #shawlknitting #studiomirandadesigns #laceknitting
Working from home with two sick kids (and yeah I am really grateful to have that option, but still). Did a 15-hour day yesterday (ending 2am) and struggling to concentrate today; doesn't help that the work gets more fiddly as the project nears completion. And I still have a bunch of personal projects to work on pretty urgently. But this is at least the final stage of the last time I'm doing this project, and I'll be out of this job within a month. That's good news. But somehow I still feel shit about it. *sigh* Ah well. How's your week?
Can you see the blossom spreading over those trees, right to left? Spring happening before my very eyes! And OH but it's good to see blue sky again...
Three things turned up at basically the same time today: a heap of gorgeous samples from @missbabsyarns (packed in the most delightful little baggie!), my long lost favourite notions tin with all its contents (HALLELUJAH), and an invitation from @kingfisherknits to share a #peekinsidemyprojectbag. So really, although there's nothing on the needles here, I had to show you this spiffy new bag and my spiffy old tin. I'm unreasonably excited, guys. And SO CHARMED by this little bag with the drawstring AND handles! I'll show off what I'm working on soon enough (it's all swatching right now) but for now, just enjoy this gorgeous teal and copper bundle. ✂️ In the tin: perfect tiny scissors from Lantern Moon, chain-style row counter from Hide and Sheep on Etsy (highly recommended btw, excellent service), stitch markers from @fripandbib and @perlgrey, a needle conversion chart from @purlescenceuk, and bits and bobs including a little stitch hook doojigger from who knows where. ✂️ What's in your bag? Tagging @sarahangell17 @sortekatt @flutterbyknits and anyone else who wants to play!
