Its all true, the boogie girl is real, and you've found her. She knits, sews, spins, does pottery and writes it all down in this blog.

New Button
I wanted a different button for Fishermen's Sweaters. We might as well have at least 2, I thought. I wanted something with fishermen on it. Yes, fishermen in yellow slickers would be great. I bet I can find something. This was all thought process here, at least I don't think I said it out loud, but you never know.
Google to the rescue!
I love doing a search for images because I almost always end up with something racy, naked, or disgusting. Ok, so those things aren't always something to celebrate. Sometimes it makes me scramble widly for the back button. Escape now, eject, eeeps! Other times it's downright entertaining. This time I thought I had found something racy and definitely naked.
Nude male bums.
It was an old black and white photo. Black and white as in the days when color photos were unheard of. Of course I had to click on it. Although, I wasn't sure what it had to do with "fishermen".
Check it out The fuzzy black and white of male bums is the most risque picture.
Such interesting things are found with such simple searches. It's kind of like the old adage "stop and smell the roses". Only in this day and age it might be changed to "stop and click the links". You never what you'll find.
Eventually when I was done "smelling roses" I came up with a new button.
I don't have to remind anyone about button etiquette, do I. You're all smart enough and no one wants me to set fire to their needles.
You need to go check out Martaschmarta. She's spinning yarn for her Fishermen Sweater and it's inspired her to sing.

I have so much to do that I cannot possibly KAL with you and I AM SO BUMMED! These are my favorite sweaters and I love the button. I'll be watching with interest. xox
That website is awesome. The page did talk about fishermen in their memories of a Maine park...So I guess its tangentially related to what you wanted. The bums were quite racy and funny. I think I'm a dork because I clicked the link to the south shelter in 1988 photo and immediately went--ooh, they need some stabalization or that puppy's gonna fall down.
