I knit tiny nonsense. There's also likely to be a fair bit of swearing.

Lovely little brioche hat...with a sneaky error
Photo of a wall hanging made from one giant sheet of white paper, folded up into several rows of pockets, with various bits of pretty papers tucked in the pockets. It's laying on my dining room table and you can see my bookcases in the background. The other pictures in the thread are more pictures of the same thing from other angles.
Photo of embroidery. The embroidery is on gray felt using pink, yellow, and white silk embroidery thread. The design is a circle with the same design repeated on eight points to make sort of a snowflake/kaleidoscope/round stained glass window sort of vibe.
screenshot of me setting up a new tiktok account
Photo of two knitted sea urchin shells, three real sea urchin shells, and a small tube of glass beads. All piled together on some rocks and driftwood.
photo of three knitted pouches of different sizes and designs, arranged on a gray table, with various small knitting notions scattered about. there are also some pretty yellow flowers for good spring vibes.
Northern lights from my yard in Maine. All photos are of this.
photo of a solid black cat, sitting in loaf position atop a BRIGHT pink sweater, which is resting on my black desk
A photo of some sea urchin shells, two real, and three knitted, atop a piece of driftwood.
Photo of the 20 books destined for the used book store. I am intentionally only showing the bottoms of the books because I don't want anybody to see their book in that pile and have a bad feeling, so please no one ask for the titles of the books.
Photo of my plant showing several new leaves
photo of the hat with the embroidery worked on it
photo of a sampler of embroidery stitches on knitting
Photo of a faded sign on a tree. The sign says "fast moving and changing water levels stay away for your own safety"
Slide with the following text: ABORTIONS ARE GOOD! When abortion is restricted, EVERYONE suffers, even people who want to get pregnant! Alabama just said frozen embryos used in IVF are "extrauterine children" & that the state's wrongful death laws apply to "all unborn children, regardless of their location." As a result, IVF clinics in Alabama don't know if they're allowed to treat patients & some have stopped IVF treatments. At the bottom is a note saying "EVERY MONTH I USE YOUR PATRON PLEDGES TO MAKE A DONATION TO HELP PAY FOR ABORTIONS. THANK YOU." And below that is my logo, because by god I'm more than happy to put my name and my business behind what I say.
Same photo as in the previous skeet with four bins circled in blue and seven circled in pink.
Photo of my yarn closet after a big purge. It's a small bedroom closet with bifold doors, one built in shelf up top, and a white wire shelving unit with four shelves sitting inside. On the wire shelves are plastic bins full of yarn. On the built in shelf are felt bins full of photo props. It is uncharacteristically tidy, this state will not last.
Completely gratuitous picture of the pattern in question, just because it's pretty. This one showing a teeny tiny version of the leaf up front and larger versions behind, again, all nestled in among pretty bath goodies.
Photo of the pretty bits of fluff that caused all the bother (brioche knit washcloths, shaped like leaves, sitting on a pretty wooden tray, and surrounded by candles and soaps and bath salts looking all yummy and indulgent).
screenshot of the layout view of the pattern the folks were complaining about showing the pages and pages and pages of text and info and charts and pictures.
Screenshot of a comment complaining about my pattern pricing, and the first part of my response. The response is too long to fit in the alt text here, but you can find it on my site https://tinynonsense.com/2024/02/22/every-time/
Photo of a pile of colorful, heart-shaped bits of good cheer
White square with big yellow text. At the top it says Questionable Nonsense as a headline. In the middle it says "In which I indulge my inner know it all & answer your questions! This month it's how I found myself doing this job, and how to avoid ladders in your knits." At the bottom it has my logo which says I knit Tiny Nonsense.
Photo of a whole bunch of hearts. There are fuzzy knitted ones in the background, all blurry. And then in the foreground, there are pieces of teeny tiny heart-shaped bits of...detritus. Something between glitter and confetti. Sparkly and pretty and useless and cheerful and full of colors and good feelings.
Photo of knitted strawberrries, mixed in with their real counterparts, tumbling out of a ceramic berry basket.
Photo of absolutely glorious cinnamon rolls all poofy in the pan
Photo of the same dough from the last two posts all rolled up into a cylinder
Photo of the large rectangle of dough from the last post, now with cinnamon and brown sugar and butter all over it
Photo of a very large rectangle of dough rolled out on my kitchen counter
Photo of a bowl full of strawberries. The ones on the top are knitted (with tiny beads for seeds!), and there are some real ones under them.
photo of a knitted hat, its knit in very thick yarn and has a stitch pattern with fancy ribbing
Photo of a stack of knitted washcloths. They're knitted in two color brioche and shaped like leaves. There is a pile of freshly woven in and trimmed off ends on top of them.
Photo of a small piece of knitting. It looks rather like a tongue and has tiny yellow beads on it.
Photo of five very small dpns with a tiny scrim of knitting on them.
Photo of a round bowl in which are piled several scrap balls of yarn in various shades of dusty pink and sage green, plus two tubes of yellow beads.
Photo of an old blanket with one end unraveled and the yarn ripped back until there's a full row of exposed stitches plus enough yarn to bind off. Some of the stitches are loose, some are on a long circular needle.
Photo of several coloring pages, each featuring an intricate star shape.
Photo of a small black cat lounging on a sheepskin rug. She's gazing up at you and has the tip of her tongue sticking out (she's fine, she just does that sometimes).
photo of a star folded from 8 sheets of semi transparent paper. the different layers of paper make for a strong geometric pattern where the light shines through
photo of a knitted hat with the crown decreases ripped back
Image from the opening of the tv show jim hendon's the storyteller
Photo of a small wrapped present with a pair of teeny tiny knitted mittens used as the ribbon/bow tied around the present.
Same as in the previous post, just these stars are folded from white paper instead of colorful paper.
composite image of nine different intricate stars, each folded from a different color of transparent paper. they look like stained glass or like what you see through a kaleidoscope, lots of symmetry and order and tidiness!
Photo of a paper star made from several pieces of transparent paper, intricately folded. The light shines through differently depending on how many layers of paper are in any one spot. The effect looks rather like a stained glass window or a kaleidoscope. (All the photos show the same sort of star, just with different patterns in them.)
Photo of last night's sunset with a double rainbow over water.
Photo of bubbly, risen dough in a skillet. The dough is topped with cheese, olives, and tomatoes.
Pictures of me cutting off the bottom of a sweater.
Loaf of bread on a wire cooling rack in a sunbeam on my counter. It's pretty bread!
Photo of dough rising in a pan on my counter in the sunshine
Photo of a large bowl of bread dough. The bread dough is risen and looks quite delightful
Photo of two knitted marshmallows on a toasting fork. The marshmallows are in focus, and in the background, out of focus, you can see a s'more and a glowing campfire (what's the singular of s'mores? s'more sounds wrong...my brain wants it to be smoor, but that's different).
Photo of marshmallows being toasted over a fire on toasting forks. One of the forks has two real marshmallows in the other has two knitted marshmallows.

Tray of mini popovers in the oven.
photo of a knitted marshmallow on a toasting fork. most of the marshmallow is white, but one corner is singed black.
photo of nine knitted marshmallows, arranged in a 3x3 grid on a wooden tray. they are various shades of brown/toasted, ranging from white on the upper left to dark brown on the lower right.
