The 4th of July is cancelled this year, on account

The 4th of July is cancelled this year, on account of the Supreme Court reinstating the monarchy.

And yet, summer camp remains and today the kids were encouraged to wear red white and blue so the lunch bag frog* should do the same. Supporting queer and trans rights is patriotic AF.

I have a summer camp tradition of elaborate lunch bag decorations for Mabel the Merciless. I can't do it year round - these bags are a time sink, albeit a really fun one - but for 8 weeks in the summer I go to town with colored pencils. Mabel is in a passionate "frog girl phase" so we are having frog girl summer themed bags. I trace the frogs out of coloring books for the most part and then embellish and color them. Pro tip: do a big batch of tracings on some weekend and then each week night you can just pick a bag to color.

Admittedly, didn't get a lot of knitting done on this vacation. Most of these rounds happened in that car on the way there and now on the way home 🤣

Get yourself a bestie that will drop everything at 10pm on a Monday to make some color charts so you can cast on during your trip on Tuesday, and not have to suffer the indignity of taking one of your many WIPs on vacation.

🥰Love you @jac_attacking 🥰

Real talk: I'm a steek cheater. Fusible interfacin

Real talk: I'm a steek cheater. Fusible interfacing and cheap bias tape ribbon take all the drama and stress out. So I went with a melodramatic song to keep the universe in balance.

I regret not buying more of those cute Uni Merino Mini's during the @phillyyarncrawl because I NEED to knit this again. I'm also incredibly impatient, so I did a swan dive into my stash to put together yarn for a second pair. ⁠

🎆 Happy 3rd birthday to my lil art deco jackalo

🎆 Happy 3rd birthday to my lil art deco jackalopes, the Jackalope Equinox Mitts! 🎆⁠
⁠
Once upon an equinox, a bored wizard created the Jackalope out of a bunny and an antelope, and he regretted it almost immediately. Very easily drawn to the scent of fear, the Jackalopes loved unicorn meat and taunting cowboys as they gathered around campfires at nights. With their ability to imitate the human voice, they had a lovely tenor, which would have been enchanting if they didn’t also possess the ability to turn any song into a scathing parody. As the wizard stood underneath a half-filled moon and watched his creations hop away, he knew he should’ve given chase, but how could he resist those fluffy bunny tails and cute little noses.⁠
⁠
YARN: @lattesandllamasyarn Interlude Yarn in Palpatine, Baskerville, and Little Princess.⁠

I fixed it! My Gorgon hat is 50% more snakeish and 100% less spermish. 🫠

I'm obsessed with this chart. Normally I'm a fickle knitter but I think the second I bind this off I'm going to start either a sweater or some socks in the same motife. Probably also some mitts. Maybe a cowl. I don't see a reason to ever wear anything else. 🐍♥️🐍

It's 10pm on valentine-eve and I'm equally obsessed with 2 things right now: 1) how entertaining I find the juxtaposition of my 🐍 hat and 🍎 snack. And 2) how concerned I am that the decreases made those snakes look like...something else 🤣 I think I need to frog back and make some adjustments.
