Consider giving them a small bottle of mineral oil with the board so they can maintain it. My rule of thumb for oiling cutting boards is: “daily for a week, weekly for a month, monthly forever.”

I made the hanger for this wall fan/lamp combo. I am mainly interested in Blacksmithing but this is the first thing I actually got completed so far…

Here’s the next book made with that leather.
This style is called a journeyman. It’s soft- bound (no hard cover), and has the wrap-over. This makes it easier for a journeyman to stick in his saddle bags without damaging the book. Nowadays it also works well in a backpack.

I LOVE this! I have been thinking of making myself some planters for a while, but I’m a ceramics newb and its a little intimidating. These are so inspiring!

The Astraeus/Moonbeam Sweater by BadWolfGirlStudios (pattern on ravelry!)
Began on August 31 and finished September 13.
Made by -Meeeee- Michelle “NobleGoblin” Noble!
I made this using yarn purchased from BadWolfGirl! The yarn was superwash merino in the colorways “Bellatrix” and “Golden Snitch”. This was stranded/fair isle. Lots of floats!
I knitted parts of the yoke a bit tighter than I would have liked, however this is my first time using superwash for a sweater and I expected more fluff/bloom. (Online resources about superwash doing this were fairly inconsistant.) I’m not sure I’ll use superwash for colorwork again without sizing up a needle. Her yarn is fairly fantastic though!
I did alter the pattern. The sleeve cuffs and hem are one solid color and I decided to add in a gold border with a few speckles. Personally, I think it tied the whole thing together much nicely. I also did a very short rib for both resulting in a better hang IMO.
Why?
I’m on a knitting binge. I was legit stalking this pattern and had been waiting for it to drop for over a month. Texas is perfect for short and 3/4 sleeve sweaters. Etc. Etc. Etc.
EDIT: This was BEFORE blocking. The blocked project is currently drying. I think I got a little more length on the sleeves and body, but it def does not block as well as regular wool. (because you know…superwash…)

I -need- this! My friends and I here in GA have a Wednesday night Charcuterie & Chill!! We have been doing it EVERY week since shortly after Quarantine started. (There’s like, three of us total. We play it safe.)
I think i know a guy who can make you one 
It doesn’t even HAVE to be 6’long, but I highly recommend it!

oh wow that’s actually more than I thought. I did 6 coats of butcher’s block conditioner (mineral oil + wax) in the first 48 hours but nothing since. Would butcher’s block conditioner be good for ongoing maintenance or just straight mineral oil?
Fair question
2020! Also apparently I’m the FIRST CUSTOMER TO FINISH SINCE THE PATTERN DROPPED. WHAAAA
That will never happen again, but i’m gonna peacock about it for now.
