#OnThisDay, 27 July 2015, film-maker and activist Bree Newsome scaled a 30ft flagpole to remove the Confederate battle flag from South Carolina state grounds.
As well as leading to the permanent removal of the flag, her action ignited a wider debate about the impact of Confederate monuments in the States.
The first (and so far only) pair of socks knit from handspun yarn.
They were really comfy, but the yarn didn't withstand the wear and tear of being worn in shoes so they didn't survive for more than one or two winters.
But I loved them while they lasted.
Maybe I should try again - I was a fairly novice spinner back then, I think I learned a bit about yarn integrity since.
This hat was knit nearly 10 years ago. The colored yarn is #handspun, the batt it was spun from was an experiment on my carding machine, which came out really great, considering it was done from odds and ends in my fiber box.
Looking at the pictures again - I should give this carding technique another go, because I really like how the colors blend together here.
