Y’all. I finally cast off the super big secret knitting project I started way back in August 2009. I mostly put it aside during the fall, then spent the last 6 weeks working my ass off on it. Still needs to be blocked, but oh my God, I can have my life back. (Well, aside from this whole grad school thing.)
Also? I will never knit with cobwebby lace yarn again (I’m looking at you Baruffa Cashwool). I’m sticking with heavy laceweight to fingering weight from here on out, thank you very much.

Where the Wild Things Are
Check out AnnaTheRed’s amazing, edible bento box art. I love pretty food, and I love it when people make art out of everyday items, but this takes both those things to a whole new level. The fact that many of these are video game characters and other nerdy notables is just icing on the cake.

WHAT where is this.
Dear LZ. I think this is called ‘Heaven’. If not, its got to be pretty close.

My inner 13-year-old boy is telling me that this is the greatest site ever made.
I came across this post while browsing, and it is incredibly tragic and horrifying. (Trigger warning for transphobia and ablism.)
This is a tragic example of how severely our legal systems are still failing trans and queer people. Everyone should give this a read
This photograph by Belgian-born, Australia-based Magdalena Bors (1976-) conveys a magical sense I associate with knitting. Though many think of this activity as a lame, housewife-like way of killing time, I´m convinced it involves some magic.
Other photographic works by Bors can be seen in her website.
