The new wave of echinodem. Some in ovale, brown with little remicent of their distant shell pattern. Found great ones in good condition.
The two orange broken parts in orange flint.
Some have clear pattern, others are chunky.
And the other three in gray, with outstanding intact one in darker gray.
All are good example to shown of the varity to finding and id.

Completed double knit fossil cowl. Pattern is the ‘Fossil Frenzy Cowl’ by HandHuntKnits that was adapted for double knitting technique.
This cowl was a year in the making, with lots and lots of help from a member in my fibre community who helped work out colour control for the twisted rib & created a stretchy twisted rib bind off for me. I dedicate this shawl to them, as without them this crazy idea to double knit this would never have happened.

AAH this is such a hard question haha
Tumblr media
Thanks so much for asking @insectsinthestars ! I felt like this required some photos!
I truly do not think I have a favorite, I tried to pick one but I could not. I love them all so much. Here are a few that mean the most to me though!
This blob of Bryozoans! This one is special to me because it is a chunk of just pure Bryozoans, it is actually super light and REALLY delicate. Every time I set it down, it sheds some particles. The fact that this survived the elements for potentially hundreds of millions of years makes my heart tighten up.

These are also the largest branches I have found, by far! (Bryozoa are tiny tiny animals that live in colonies, similar to coral)
Of course, I have to include my ONE trilobite haha. Yeah, that was a good day. I kinda love that it is just his little booty, hehe. Maybe one day I will work up the courage to attempt to chisel the rest of it out, I just reallllly do not wanna damage it. But yea.. man, do i cherish it

And I would honestly feel bad not including any Brachiopods, since they make up 80% of my fossils. But again, I really can’t choose a favorite:( I have a lot and I love them all. So these one’s are from the very beginning of my fossil hunting days (2019) and I can still remember finding them and crying in the woods :’)

Went fossil hunting in Normandy again (same place I usually go to). Very happy with some of the stuff I found

Found a nice little patch of some lovely crinoid fossils while creeking for a bit earlier today. Even found part of a calyx from one—don't find those terribly often around here!
And little did I know, there was a coyote exploring around on the bank right behind me while I was filming this. Got a quick, potato-quality video of her just as she noticed me and ran off. Young coyote and she obviously has puppies right now. So cool!

Brittle star from the Boulonnais.
These little guys are family of the starfish and are actually kind of rare to find in a fossilized state, because of their soft bodies
