Sometimes I'll be working on something and I realize I've made a small mistake a few rows back and instead of going back to fix it I go this yarn isn't nice enough for me to care and I move on with my life.

159.) My Toronto sweater. Made for my trip to Canada last year in which we passed through Toronto and I gave a speech and we took a ferry ride. The back features the stadium. Images have been taken for it to possibly be a T-shirt someday. #sambarsky #sambarskysweaters #sambarskyknitter #knit #knitting #knitter #art #artist #sweater #toronto #torontoskyline #torontoontario #lakeontario #ontario #cntower #rogerscentre #skydome

@michaels the yarn store
when will you realize the potential in just having a table for people to sit at in your stores? Like give me a spot to sit and knit and then buy more yarn when I leave. Commit to it, become like the bookstores with Starbucks attached, keep me there for 5 hours and buying 12 coffees 🧶

Hello knitters and fibre witches!
The wonderful Canadian fibre witch ash alberg of Sunflower Knit is putting out a new book soon called Sanctuary. Sanctuary is a collection of 8 knitting patterns, 1 quilt pattern, 13 food and drink recipes, and 8 self care rituals. It's also very much centred on the concepts of queer love and friendship. What they've put out so far looks incredible and I'm excited for it to become published (locally in Winnipeg too!)

However, the crowd funding is going a bit slow. They have four days left, with only about 50% of their $18000 goal backed. Ash has stated that the bare minimum to fund the book and get it printed is $13000, but the additional 5000 is important because it covers some of the unpaid work they have done to make this book the beautiful rose coloured tome that it is destined to be.
I really believe that this project deserves to be completed, and some of the perks you can choose to go along with the book include all natural yarn packs hand dyed by ash, a material kit you can use to create the quilt pattern in Sanctuary, handmade body care kit, and more!
I'll reblog with the indiegogo link (curse you tumblr seo). Be aware that even if the campaign doesn't reach its goal, you will still end up with your copy of sanctuary if you order one, because ash WILL find a way, it just will be a longer process than planned. I hope this post gains them some extra traction!

29.) My first of two Niagara Falls sweaters. Our honeymoon site. Perfect to share today because it’s our anniversary. Bought yarn to make it on our way home from our honeymoon. Picture taken during our recent visit in September. Hope to make one of my Niagara sweaters into a T-shirt someday. #sambarsky #sambarskysweaters #sambarskyknitter #knit #knitting #knitter #art #artist #sweater #intarsia #handknit #niagarafalls #niagara #unitedstates #canada #uscanadaborder #usacanadaborder #usacanada #canadianside #waterfall #niagarafallscanada #niagarafallsontario #niagarafallsnewyork #niagarafallsny #niagarafallsusa (at Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkwU5QQPvIR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
