Storm rabbit is coming up to check on how I'm doing testing out Yarn Love's new Beatrix Bunny sock pattern. I love it!

Blue, orange, green, and purple yarns are Rain's Obsessive Stitchery, a small batch dyer whose yarns I adore. I'm also happy with how the fuzzy bunnies turned out. I used Rowan Felted Tweed - Camel. It's a DK weight yarn but it works well.

Test knitting this wonderful spring pattern from Yarn Love! My colors are quite different from the sample. I love her yarn dyes, but I was starting late, therefore I'm using what I have on hand. The little bunnies are ADORABLE!

On this day in 1997, nearly 5 million bits of #Lego fell into the ocean when a huge wave hit the cargo ship Tokio Express, washing 62 containers overboard. We're still finding it 24 years later. Among the pieces lost were green dragons, highly prized among beachcombers.

Just realised that the tiny sea worn galloping horse found on the strandline yesterday is probably a gladiator’s steed from a 1964 packet of Sugar Puffs. #plasticarchaeology #contemporaryarchaeology #beachcombing

What’s the best way to market cutlery? Antiquity, of course! This is a Victorian influencer hired to advertise a local shop in the US. In a dress inspired by antiquity and sporting an Eros clock headpiece, this woman carried a banner with a feather duster instead of an eagle.
