A reflection on grief

This jumper was inspired by grief, and the isolation that sometimes comes as a result of people seeing the depths and complexity of that grief. The creatures on the front are modelled on this cover of a horror novel I read nearly 2 years ago called Monstrilio, about a grieving mother who grows her 11 year old son from a piece of his deceased body’s lung. The whole process of designing and knitting this, especially as I was recovering from top surgery - something that was greatly opposed by my family, felt like a reflection on love, grief and its monstrosity.

More progress on my project! I had intended to set this up for consecutive turned twill, but it had been a while so I accidentally did bird's eye (laugh emoji.) I interspersed it with plain weave, and I'm quite happy with how it's turning out so far! The wool is stretching, but that is to be expected, and there has been minimal breakage! Also for your enjoyment some blackberry briars outside. Happy summer!

When the CEO of the company that didn't turn away Nazi business says "this isn't going to work" you know it's bad.

Gif sets are SO important to me. Yes, please take this scene and break it up into 4 or 6 three second loops that I can study over and over to appreciate the small details of it

I got a Bombers lighter a few months ago and it's barely worked since I bought it but I refuse to chuck it out regardless. It kind of mirrors how it feels to be a Bombers supporter in general. They're fucking useless but I couldn't ever abandon them.
