Here is what I sent to @ginnedfish.bsky.social in the gift exchange! I had a lot of fun making it.

I recommend giving Stitch Fiddle a try! Same process, different tools.

Have you used Stitch Fiddle to write your patterns? I'm not a numbers person so it's much easier for me to work the charts up visually, and there's a function to download the written instructions as a text file from the finished charts

Yesterday I filmed several baby birds walking across a street directly at my camera and asked Bluesky to suggest music
Several dozen folks did
Some even dubbed music over the original clip.
I haven't been able to get this out of my head.
So I give you
A Bluesky exclusive:

Agreed! I'm upfront about my pricing with commissions and it's often off-putting to people who are accustomed to paying for fast-fashion. I would much rather barter with other artists for their work than accept payment for mine!

I'm delighted to gift my work to people who appreciate it, but it's vexing to see it sold for less than it's worth, which is why it's anathema to put a price tag on it. You know and I know that $60 is a criminally low price for work of this quality, but not everyone is aware of its true value.

Oh! Even better! There's also the Sin of Intent, which means just thinking about doing something is as bad as actually doing it!
It's a lot of fun being an ex-Catholic.

You have to say an Act of Contrition, which goes "... I firmly resolve, with the help of your grace, to sin no more and to avoid the near occasion of sin," i.e. make a promise that you're not going to do the thing anymore; however I had absolutely no intention to stop and I didn't want to lie.

Even when screening calls from recruiters don't yield anything, it's still a nice feeling when someone saw your resume and thinks you might be good at something.

I get it. It's an awful feeling to see something you've lavished hours of love and care in creating get auctioned off for less than the cost of the yarn.
