Crochet, popcorn and backache!

No, I haven't fallen off the edge of the planet, I'm just working too much to blog often!

Also I had suspected swine pig disease a couple weeks back; complete with hallucinations, which really put me on my arse. Ugh.

Anyway, I started the Cardiff Cowl (free pattern from Lion Brand Yarn) yesterday in what I believe to be Fyberspates hand dyed.

Good news? I'm halfway done. Yay.

Bad news? The dang yarn is leaving orange residue on my hands! Ew! Whut?

I think a rinse before wearing is in order. Grumble. If the yarn wasn't a gift, I'd be really peeved!

Anyway, lookylook:






Urghness! But it rubs off pink?! Er, whut? (nails DYED by it!)

I've sent all my gifts off to the USA & Canadia so I'm not worrying much, except about if they get there!

Hope, Gina, Leslie, Marf, Debxox, Heather (cc)- watch out!

Englanders, yours is coming soon...

Hokays, who wants a cowl in a non-staining wool?

Blog hiatus, it seems...

... yes I am a bad blogger sometimes, but I don't think you'd be interested in every boring detail! Suffice to say plans are in motion and exciting things may happen soon... ooo, cryptic! ;)

Frogging

I'm ripping this as soon as the post is done. Waste of 2 1/2 hours. Awfully written pattern, v badly done.


Have been ill for a week with suspected piglet, hence no noise.

New Hat

I made my colleague Ron a grey hat like he asked- yay!



See how happy he is!

Kiriban! Winner!

Ok, Erin wins the kiriban! Yay!

I haven't forgotten my promise for five random people to get gifts (Leslie & Gina), and there's still three spaces left...

Anyway, here Erin, is a selection of stitch markers for you to pick from!













Or how about a stinky lavender bag made from my garden lavender and hand made felt?
