This meme brought to you by my spiralling anxiety and some slight bickering when I packed a sock project into the car last night despite it being dark already 😅

(I will update the monthly theme tomorrow I promise, it’s been a busy few days!)

    I’ve been working on a scarf since around September. I call it my anxiety knitting and i hope to have it done just in time for summer…

      It’s like a comfort blanket sometimes and I am not ashamed to admit it! Like making friends with the dog at a party.

      Hope your scarf goes well, photos always welcome 😉

        Lol, if there’s a dog at the party, call me marshmallow: cuz like a sweet potato pie, I’m on top of it.

        Showing colors, needle for scale

        Balled up for transport

        I’m basically making a Dr. Who scarf, but only one ball of yarn.

          Omg this is officially my new favourite saying and I’m going to aggressively find ways to use it in conversation despite being english and nobody here knowing wtf a sweet potato pie is.

          Also, cozy af scarf! What kind of yarn is that?

            I don’t remember what kind of yarn it is, it’s been sitting in my yarn box for a couple years, to the point the label degraded :/ But it’s a two-tone braided acrylic I got from Michaels, in one of those semi-seasonal displays they have in the middle of the main aisle.

            If I can find another one, I’ll update with the brand/style!
