TINK TINK TINK


Just a tinkin’ along.
Sounds like that should be a song.
And now I'm rhyming, that's so wrong.
It must mean that I'm a ding dong
Ok, I'll stop now.

Its been cold and rainy here, which can only mean that I couldn’t work in the garden over the weekend. Some people would think that meant I had a free day to clean the house. The rest of us know that it’s time to spin and knit. That’s where the tinking comes in. I worked on the Highland Triangle and screwed up somewhere. Tinkedy tinkedy tink back before the mistake. Tink tink tink until I finally got the part where I had forgotten a YO. “doh”. I haven’t been able to pick up what little rhythm I had with it. I set it down for a bit but I’ve gotten a couple repeats done. See:

You can see the lifeline but I’m doing my best to not even have to rip back that far. I think I’ve gotten over that happy frogger attitude I had a couple of weeks ago. Right now I'll beg borrow or steal not to have to do any frogging.

Most of my time Saturday was spent spinning. I created another handspun page. Here's a preview:

Sunday was spent in a different way. I have my craft show that I leave for on Friday. I spent the day doing some fulling and knitting up I-cord. Lovely craptastic I-cord. Just at the time when I felt like I must have knit about a mile of this stuff I measured. Hardly, I had about 3 yards. Not enough and certainly not a mile. On we went knitting away. I’ll try to remember to take some pics of the finished bags.


I did do some dreaming and planning as well. I’ve been thinking of a fair isle sweater. I’m sure I’ve seen it before, the picture in my mind is so vivid it just can't be imagined. I just don’t remember where which is ok, I'm not up for buying another pattern right now when I can make it up. I’ve got the yarn and most of the pattern is written. The fair isle band is already color charted on my computer in a million combinations but I’ve narrowed that down to one. I also re-charted Charlotte. I don’t want to work from written directions and I just couldn’t read that chart they provided. So I charted my own from the written directions. Now that I have it all figured out, I’m itchin’ to work on it.Its a good thing my yarn hasn't arrived, I want to get more done on highland triangle.


Today I need to be working on finishing up bags, attaching buttons and gorgeous I-cord. I've also devised a new tote that I need to get done. Pottery will have to wait until I get back from this show. I have a wedding teapot to do. I think it will be gorgeous in the chosen flowers. The last thing I have planned for today:



Talk to me

A copyright is a copyright is a copyright. Don't copy copyrighted things without permission. You'll notice my stuff is all copyrighted. Its all for personal use and that's cool. That's sharing. Copying and selling my pattern is stealing. Same for all designers and their patterns. Play well and don't break copyright law. Share nice.

Sharing certainly doesn't mean you can Steal bandwidth. Hotlinking is very bad.

Share nice and I'll be your buddy, be a troll and I'll torch all your needles.
