Saturday, July 10, 2004
Just another Saturday on the High Plains Transmutation I have decided that my blue Suede Oakley shawl is going to morph into the Linda poncho that I have renamed the Cowgirl Poncho. They are basically the same pattern... you make two (slightly smaller) shawls and sew together for the poncho. And then when I am thru with the Cowgirl Poncho, I will make Oakley in purple Suede which is what I really wanted anyway. So instead of being almost done with Oakley I am now about halfway done with Cowgirl. I think I'm gonna really like her. Lost Point Good News / Bad News I spent the morning doing battle with Lost Points... I present this mostly uninteresting picture only to show that I have indeed triumphed over the Melody yarn and progressed from knitting on rows in the Yarn-from-Hell to knitting in the round with the much-easier-to-work-with Bamboo. Doesn't it look like an amoebic life form in this picture? The bad news is there are only 6 rounds of Bamboo before I have to switch back to the Melody for 25 rows. sigh... The really bad news is I saw a Lost Points Shawl made up at my LYS this morning and I'm not sure I liked it. It did not look as "nice" as in the photos.... Puppy Update It takes a while for them to look like puppies not hamsters. We are at that point, here's the proof! Spindle of the Day This is the first Tabachek I purchased. Love at first sight. Maker: Edward Tabachek Wood: Yellowheart whorl with Redheart shaft Weight: 1.2 oz. Purchased from: The Bellwether Anne at 8:52 PM | |
