I've made a plan how to use my

@distel - main account!

@distel - for everything creative, like , , ,

@muz - everything, but in german language.

@distelfliege - lets try this one for politics. anarchism, cycling politics, coop stuff, queer/emancipation stuff and all that.

everything will likely mix up a bit but thats ok.

I finished my woodland socks, which I plan to send to a nice guy in denmark, and now I'm starting the next pair for the person who cared for our cat while we were cycling.

it's great to be able to make people who appreciate it handmade socks!

after that I can finally go back to knitting the lace shawl that has been on hiatus since the middle of may.

I don't know if they know that they look like an anarchist pharmacy

Im sitting outside and planned to knit but it's too loud here. The city is so loud! I'll ride to the park.

May you all enjoy life as much as my dog at the beach

my newest sock project. And I love the dyeing in this yarn, it's black-green-speckled with rust and bright green spots.

I'm watching sea lemons tutorial for making a style notebook. she uses faux leather and I ask myself if an oilcloth tablecloth would work for that?

I'm sitting here sipping my morning coffee and knitting my sock. I'm knitting the toe and I have now 40 stitches left on the needle, of originally 64 stitches. I'm planning to do some but something in me wants to finish these socks first!

writing this toot helped me put the project down, hehe

from that I carded myself. The wool, from a Texel/Kempen Heath cross, is rather fine.

(I read that, despite both breeds being raised primarily for their meat, their wool is used for hosiery and suit fabric - I can believe it, from the feel of a fine thread through my fingers.)

The end of the rollag is tricky, though - the longer hairs grab one another, but at a certain point, only the "shorter" ones are left. Then one's handling needs to be deft. Or, you stop treadling.
