We finished our visit on the South Coast of Iceland and it was incredible. We stayed on a farm with all of these animals! Thank you @steinas_2 for sharing this wonderful place with us. by @heathiemade

Before I left for Iceland, I decided that I desperately needed to finish this #flockpullover. I knit it in about two weeks and will be wearing it out to dinner tonight in Reykjavik.

Yarn is from @fiberfeverco - it’s Malabrigo Verano which is a cotton and it’s perfect and cozy. I knit a size 3. I’ll absolutely be making another!

Finished this #claytee by @ozetta and the texture is so good. She has just the right amount of ease - I knit the XS and followed the pattern as wrote for length.

Yarn is @sewrellayarn in the cotton linen wool sock held double. Yarn colors are illicit affairs and Enchanted. I used a skein and a half of both colors.

I’m so happy with how it turned out! It is the first @ozetta pattern I’ve made but won’t be the last. #imakemyclothes #iknitmyownclothes taken in Milwaukee, Wisconsin by @heathiemade

A couple of my curent favorite pots. The avocado pot has holes for drainage and is one of the first two walled pots I’ve made (even if they’re small walls). The second is a pot with carved mushrooms in a satin rutile glaze. It is about 2 / 2.5 lbs of glaze. I’m steadily working on pulling larger amounts of clay.

Both plants are from @indigo.plant.collective.

Some recent items that I’ve been working on! 2025 became a year of making. I’m excited for it to continue into 2026. #potteryofinstagram #pottery #coloredpencilart #watercolor #knitting #mkeknits #wisconsinknitters #mkemakers taken in Milwaukee, Wisconsin by @heathiemade

Picked up some pots today. Pleased with how this batch came out. As with anything I do, I’m trying to let go of perfection and just be happy with the result.

Moments after modeling this @knit_picks sweater, he caught a mouse outside. Find a man who can do both. 😳😬 by @heathiemade

Literally have barely sewed in the last year and finished two objects in two days. Made a cozy #mileendsweatshirt from @closetcorepatterns. This pattern is such a quick make and honestly so cozy.

Size: 8, View 8
Fabric: French terry from @stylemakerfabrics

After an unexpected sewing hiatus, I completed a garment. I made these #falconerpants from @helens__closet. I actually started these six months ago, and they sat for a long time. But now they’re done!

Next time I’m need to grade up at the waist but otherwise they fit well. They’re a size 8 in the view A.

And don’t worry in my hiatus I have not found a better method of taking pictures.

Best believe I’m still bejeweled, when I walk in the room, I can still make the whole place shimmer - these @knit_picks needles probably.

My current yarn isn’t giving The Life of a Showgirl but I can’t wait. Until then I’m going to keep knitting until October 3. At that point it’ll be Cardigan weather.

Pattern is #thepinkonecardigan by @lilykatemakes

Knitting through this corn sweat nonsense by knitting a lot of cotton fibers and using the spindle to keep the yarn off my lap.
