Attention Brevard County Snail Lovers

There are absolutely breathtaking and occasionally melanistic Bulimulus Guadalupensis breeding at the DMV. There are less than gorgeous but very captivity friendly and long lived Bulimulus Sporadicus at HD Dental, some of which have patterns reminiscent of Drymaeus Dormani.

Best snailing spot is the hibiscus around the side dumpster of Chase Bank at Melbourne Mall: vigorous Praticolella Griseola who make good nursemaids, truly pedigree Zachrysia Provisora who need your home so they won't be invasive, and shockingly beautiful Drymaeus Multilineatus whose young occasionally climb the streetlights.

Polygyra Septemvola prevalent near all water sources but particularly hardy specimens live on the riverward side of the Eau Gallie library wall. They have a mix of lovely stripes near the swingset and a stripeless population nearer the dock. Richly coloured brown or ruddy ones are rare but breed with striped ones to make quite handsome offspring- though they're all extremely tiny.

Allopeas Gracile extant in many Brevard soils but do NOT do well in captivity; admire them and leave them be. All salt marsh snails (Succinaea species) should likewise be left extant.

Very Important!

Do not ignore the infinite love offered by Leidyula Floridana leatherleaf slugs. If you can find one or two, they will be your new best friends and favourite pets. Well second after the Zachrysia who will watch anime with you and eat like gentlemen. The leatherleaf slugs love cuddling but also love escaping- such rumpus escapades are part of the charm. Raised from an egg it takes a pet no prawwwblem.

THE STRIKE GOLD 10OZ GREY SLUB SELVEDGE DENIM WORK SHIRT

[acosmic]

trusted sources will attest that i have been obsessing over spiderwebs plus lace for at least the past 1.5 years, and this would be easier and less painful to execute than the “irish crochet with spiderwebby mesh ground connecting spider and trapped bug motifs” idea.

this is almost definitely knit, but i’d be surprised if it wasn’t inspired by teneriffe lace. it would be a lot of fun to copy it that way - you’d lose the stretch but who cares about that part

Sneaking in just in time for january's @yarn-design-spin-along ! Decided to do slubby singles, because usually that's what I'm trying avoid, and I thought I might learn something by doing it on purpose. Was definitely right, I think I have a better grasp on the mistakes I made a lot as a beginner now. And it's so soft... curious to see what it'll feel like once the twist is set

The batt is one I made with @mimsiical (who very kindly brought their drum carder for me to play with, and we made some really great batts together on it). It probably wasn't the ideal choice for this type of yarn (according to the book hand combed top would be best, because it gives lots of control. This batt was fed through a second time with the fibers parallel to the teeth instead of perpendicular so they were going every which way) but I can't argue with the result.

The original batt, btw !

They didn’t say anything about sludity (slug nudity), boys, now’s our chance!

uncensored

Bro why did you censor the snake's cloaca on the snake anatomy post??? It's a snake?

I didn't censor anything, what -

oh. Oh, no. That's meant to be a line to show where the tail begins. Oh no, now I look like some weird prude.

Yeah, that's meant to help people grasp the anatomy and visualize how small the tail is in relation to the torso. Not meant to be some kind of weird snake privacy screen

Man I have gone thru every emotion with this project but it finally has ended happily!!

This is 2 oz of the 4 that I got at Black Sheep this year, first spin on my new (to me - she's 35 years old!) Schacht Matchless wheel. I really had a hell of a time with this fiber - it was very well prepared but with my health problems I had a really hard time keeping it consistent. It's overspun and under spun, overplied and under plied, slubby thru some of the silk portions and suddenly way thinner thru the purple. Which is why I was shocked that it was perfectly balanced when I took it off the noddy. I'm thrilled bc I was giving up hope on it being suitable for the intended project - I think it'll make a beautiful warp! I was intending to have the other half be the weft and make a fun weird plaid but seeing it in the skein I think that will be too busy and I'll use plain black alpaca instead. It's 282 yards so it'll have to be a pretty big shawl but that's hardly a problem! I'm just so relieved that it's actually balanced.

Had a dream that the latest Tumblr obession was some mobile game that got a TV adaptation called Vampire Interest.

It was about some South Korean girl moving onto a farm in rural England owned by some rich vampire and his prettyboy vampire son. They also have some kinda slubby middle aged farmhand named Joe.

The Korean girl dates Joe first, while vampire twink agonizes over it bc he's obsessed with her. She eventually breaks up amicably with Joe but it is an agonizingly drawn out love triangle

TDF DAY 4 (2 July)

Today I spun the other ply, which was this carded jacob wool. This particular jacob fleece has very long locks, and I have found carding is not necessarily the way to go.

It was very very inconsistent and broke a lot, because there were so many tiny short clumps of fiber that I'd hit that were never effectively processed.

On the other hand, if i wanted a low effort slubby yarn, this is the perfect fiber for it.

I did find the white vs the gray spun up very differently. The white was still pretty obliging and drafted easily, while the gray did not want to draft so much.

Anyway, I also plied it on my wheel this evening.

Haven't blocked it yet, very curious to see what will happen. It's ridiculously inconsistent the whole way, but it's only for a bag, so who cares.

It's 94 yards/86 meters and weighs about 1.2 ounces/35 grams.
