Add yourself to our CogKNITive Listeners Map.

I have a YouTube channel "Doctor Gemma". Flash tips (1 minute or less) around surviving the pandemic and longer strategy discussions.

Buy Dr Gemma a Ko-Fi, if you're enjoying the podcast and feeling up to it. Remember that I am still working, thoughhttps://twiceshearedsheep.com, so feel free to give the money to a charity instead.

There will NOT be a CFR (Cogknitive Fiber Retreat) this year.

I will NOT add you to any of my follower groups currently, due to robo-accounts. Please follow me here. You can contact me through our group on Ravelry or on this blog.

What's On My Hooks and Needles:

Finished:

Roving Rug #2: came out PERFECT!



In Progress:

Jury Duty Shawl—because you cannot take knitting needles to court





Really Pretty Socks—sock #1: On toe decreases!
 Wild Lettuce Shawl: on the knitted on lace edging, but not yet at the midpoint. Maybe I will get to it in today’s crushing heat…
Twinface’s vest (restarted in smaller size) On its way home to me. Still.
Temperature Blanket—caught up and expecting another line of pink today possibly, but mainly oranges.

Current heatwave:

Put a Lid On It:

Well, maybe the Frosty tastes differently than I remember…







Aw Shoot!
