i lost some steam in the fountain pen collecting and subsequent ink collecting (surely there will be posts about this) and fell back on ye olde knitting habit. this has resulted in more yarn collecting even though i've already amassed more yarn than i'll be able to use before i die, for sure, but i mean. how can i NOT get some beautiful yarns that are being discontinued or old favorites that were discontinued years ago. i don't have a choice imo.
more than anything i need another blog post to figure out the crapass layout nonsense with the limited tools on this site. i cannot really complain to be fair, because i am wayyyyyyyyyyy too mf lazy to deal with building my own site from scratch again, even with provided templates. i am in my forties now marie grow up.
ah- but a stash destroyer project i bought a pattern for;

it's so cute, idek how to act. amazingly i already have the 10 & 15mm needles needed for it. will update if i ever find the motivation to start it.
in the meantime i've been plugging away at using up a ton of sock weight yarns to make a really hideous blanket that i started at least a decade ago. it's pairing very nicely with half-watching horrible episodes of the bachelor & bachelor in paradise.
in the last month i've knit four hats a shawl, a very long unfinished scarf and a chicken.

to end this post i just want to add that i've had "almost paradise" stuck in my head for days, iykyk, and i don't mean that in a positive way if i'm being honest
