The blizzard last week took out our power for 6 straight days, mostly out on day 7 - 9 too. Water back on the end of day 8. Luckily it wasn’t super cold or hot and we met a great electrician that is happy to do work in our area. 🎉28 Mar 2025 23:54 +0000at://did:plc:pcsh7uintbtdwl3hgsx6a4rm/app.bsky.feed.post/3llhza7payc25https://bsky.app/profile/jenparmeley.bsky.social/post/3ljspzzlpoc2qI absolutely adore paying full price for emergency epinephrine. 🙄 Thanks big pharma!

Can you help me find a very soft self striping yarn? In fingering/sport/DK I’d like to make a Musselburgh hat for someone that has very sensitive skin. Standard hand dyed sock wool/nylon in 75/25 or 80/20 irritates their skin. #Knitsky 🧶 knitting09 Feb 2025 15:40 +0000at://did:plc:pcsh7uintbtdwl3hgsx6a4rm/app.bsky.feed.post/3lhqxpcupzc27https://bsky.app/profile/jenparmeley.bsky.social/post/3lhoeu5bhw22lDid the math and goat kids should start dropping 8 weeks.

Spent most of my time counting stitches, trying to remember how brioche works, and cursing dropped stitches, but overall happy to have it out again.

Day 1, Hi! I’m a blue dot in a sea of red. I have a small flock of sheep and a few dairy goats. I knit, spin, milk, and make cheese. I have 3 teenagers, work full-time in tech, and knitting is my downtime activity, with some spinning, and some quilting.03 Feb 2025 03:15 +0000at://did:plc:pcsh7uintbtdwl3hgsx6a4rm/app.bsky.feed.post/3lhalaymvmc27
