Recently discovered these skein savers on @knit_pi

Recently discovered these skein savers on @knit_picks - they look like hair ties from back in the day!! These are my new favorite for machine-wound yarns - the elastic tension helps the skein keep its shape, especially near the end, to reduce tangling. 🧶

If you’re following along in my stories, you’ll know that Storm here had a bit of a health scare yesterday. We are home and she’s recovering, and we’ll know more about how she’s doing as time passes. Right now, she’s resting comfortably at home with the help of some v stylish improvised bolster pillows. ❤️

There’s been a lot of lovely people posting their black and white photos. I’m joining in solidarity with #womensupportingwomen /#chellengeaccepted to help raise awareness about what’s happening to women in Turkey. There’s a link in my bio with more information about the serious situation that inspired this campaign & food for thought about campaigns of this nature.

It sucks that we live in such a serious world right now, but supporting each other matters. I will also be donating to @chicagoperiodprjct to help the amazing work they have been doing locally during these strange times. ❣️ Thank you to @lemiller26 for sharing this campaign & its context with me, you’re the best! ❣️
