Happy Sunday from June and her Lamby! 😉 By sheer coincidence, she came home with a lamb toy from the rescue. She (unsurprisingly lol) lobotomized it yesterday, but such is the life of an anxious terrier’s squeaky toy! 🐑

She still knits! I’m currently playing with a cute idea for a seamed sweater with intarsia & maybe even steeking (😳). It’s late July, so my fingers have been itching to work with wool again! 🧶💙 #handsoccupied #knitting #knittersofinstagram #handmadewardrobe

June: self-appointed yarn inspector. Every skein must be checked to ensure it’s not actually a dog toy! 🧶🐕

Pupper June is doing so good at the end of her first week with us! She is recovering from spay surgery well, despite not understanding why she can’t play rowdy fetch or lick her tummy. 😆
.
Definitely a rescue, June doesn’t yet know how to sit or do commands, but she’s house and crate trained. She’s smart and mostly just needs to know her needs will be consistently met, so I’m excited to help her see that. It should be a rewarding challenge!

While I’m on the subject of June: Anybody with a wire haired pooch have recs on shampoo/conditioner/coat sprays that are worth a try on little miss here? I’d love suggestions/tips if you have them to share. 🙏🏻

Long time, no see! What started as a few day Insta

Long time, no see! What started as a few day Insta detox grew, and I feel so much better after taking a break.
.
Sorry it was unplanned, and thanks to friends who reached out to check on how I was doing. A few fun work things have happened that I’ll post about when I get to it 😎, but for now, swipe to the second photo to see the newest member of my household, June the rescue mutt! My hands have been occupied with this young gal, and she is settling in swimmingly so far. Tomorrow she will be spayed, and I’m looking forward to helping her recover and get into behavior training. ❤️☺️ Missed you, crafting pals! #handsoccupied
