It's a bleak grey day out there but just LOOK at the pile of sunshine the postie brought me from @missbabsyarns! 😍 I am totally excited about this design. Something a bit different, and a bit fun. #knitdesign
Ok so I spat all my thoughts on designing as a "privilege" into a blog post. Well, not all, because even I have to stop typing eventually. But the main things. Which, if you want the shortest possible version, would be: working for below minimum wage is never in itself a privilege, even given that some (including me) do choose to do so and that this choice is made from a position of privilege. Choosing to ignore the many whose choices are more forced is unproductive, to say the least. More on why on the blog (link in profile).
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?
