WHOOPS

So uh. I uh. Well. I got a new digital camera! This means I'll actually update maybe, or get a new blog. As a sweet, sweet teaser, here's my excellent headband tutorial: materials: 2 colors of worsted weight yarn (scraps, I use Caron Simply Soft for maximum color fun and non-scratchiness) size 8 16" circulars (or something) CO 80 sts, join work 1x1 ribbing for about 3 rounds knit stockinette for 9 rounds (or however many you want!) knit 3 rounds 1x1 ribbing BO all sts duplicate stitch in your excellent message or slogan! if you want to get fancy and better-fitting headbands: CO 80 sts, join work 1x1 ribbing for 3 rounds work 1x1 ribbing for 20-30 sts, k remaining (repeat for 8 more rounds) k 3 rounds 1x1 ribbing BO at sts HOTT STUFF

Fits and starts

I've finally given up on the idea of creating a lacy sweaterthing out of yarn from a slightly felted sweater. Its new destiny lies in some Broad Street Mittens for Nate in exchange for some prints of his photos. ART BARTER. The remainder of the yarn will probably become some knee socks for me! Woo fuzzy wool. I worked on an entrelac scarflette thing last weekend, but I haven't done much with it lately. I'm kind of stymied by logistics; I need some kind of scarf pin. I live in constant fear of the looming MOTH THREAT. Allen and I have embarked on an agressive SWAT ON SIGHT campaign, and we can only hope that they have yet to infiltrate my stash. I'm currently in full support of the switching-between-sock-projects method of sock production. Since I haven't had to work on the Gentleman's Lozenge Pattern sock for awhile, it feels like cheating since I'm already half done. In conclusion, here's Allen modelling my presents for the Dumbrella Secret Santa. Party Hard, Dreamfather. Party hard.
