well.......ok monday bernie was late getting in
tuesday due to weather he didn't get home at all ( none of us slept, not me.....not him, not the cats, not the chickens)
he got home wensday, and had to bring wood in for a few days, as due to the storm TUESDAY i couldn't get the wood up to the studio
when we all finally got to sleep the la perms slept ON HIM and i held his arm all night,..... i don't think anyone realized it until morning....
oye
last night he was late as his fleet had a unit to be cleaned
i don't know yet about today
happy valentines day to you all.....a bit late i know
i spent yesterday catching up on dishes and chipping ice out of the duck pen, trying to get the flooding in the basement under some sort of control
etc.....
holding down the fort so to speak
in KNITTING NEWS!!!
i started a KAL at KR and ravelry
for a shawl called Moroccan days/Arabian Nights designed by Susan Pandof and commissioned by Kim of Woolen Rabbit
i have never done an actual kal before so this is going to be interesting
i like this pattern, it is lace, but it is a very textured lace with beading etc
so i find this interesting
i plan on doing one in the honey color, and i am thinking i may do a second one in spicey reds....
i am even going to buy the yarn it's shown in!!!!!
i really like this pattern.
as you folks may realize, i do try to help designers along, if i like their work.
i made how many ice queens? ( she is another very talented designer)
there are a few others that i have gotten their patterns but haven't had a chance to do them yet.....
of course as i do i will tell you all
i don't mean to slight anyone
so if i have some of your patterns and i haven't said anything, it is because they are in line and i probably haven't found the yarn i want to do them in yet
now as to this week......i am very glad it's over
i hope next week is better
til next time
vi
Next week is ALWAYS better...
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to watch the lace develop. I have made progress with blue silk and we may become good friends one day - but my goodness - wool lace is so much easier to knit!
