Is there an easy way to remotely monitor another person's pulse? My partner and I are getting older, and sleep in different rooms at different times. We've both worried about the other dying unbeknownst. I wear a pulse watch, but don't know if it will do what I want. Any ideas, friends? I'd like us to be able to glance at a screen and see a heartbeat. #ageing #wearables #wearable #disability

The kitty blanket is finished! I'm so chuffed with it, but also a little sorry to be done #knitting it, because it was fun to make. My partner loves it, and asked me to make more for our den. The #cats continue to produce fur, so I see more #handspinning in my future. This is a blend of Jacob #wool and cat #floof that I spun. It is WARM! The pattern is my variation of the famous 10 stitch blanket by Frankie Brown. More details in the alt text. #handmade #fiberarts #textiles #homespun

Well. I have tidied my room, done the laundry, cleaned the kitchen, and folded the clothes. There's no more avoiding it now. Time to sew on the damn buttons. #knitting #handmade #handcraft #justchatting

This is a shrug I made for a friend, a garment meant to keep your shoulders warm. She wanted these colors, and I wanted to explore bias and short rows. Never again will I work in black or buy cheap yarn. Still, it came out rather nice, and she is happy. Maybe I'll play with these ideas again one day. #knitting #handmade #handcraft
