Shaped
Shaped, our spiffy little shapely shape, is out! This one started with me looking at the start of a slipper and wondering what would happen if I played with it for a while. And the only reason I have the time and space to chase ideas like that is because [...]
Half
This 'longer than anticipated' bit is apparently the theme of the project. But I did get two of the colors done. I have one tshirt and two napkins (both 100% cotton) to dye in each of the four colors. The kit I got had you first soak them with gallnut [...]
Potions
Hmm, so this is a longer process than anticipated. Turning the powder into colorful potions took most of the day. So turning the white fabric into colorful fabric will have to wait until tomorrow. And my kitchen is now shockingly clean because it got shockingly filthy along the way and [...]
A + B = ?
I have both a pile of white tshirts and napkins... Aaaaaaaand a natural dye kit... And here shortly I expect to have neither. I'll report back.
Yard trash
First, you wander the yard to collect whatever colorful weeds are available at the moment... Then you play with the aforementioned colorful weeds... Then you take pictures of them, possibly sneaking some knitting in while you're at it... Then, some time next week, you show them off in a pattern!

My self control wavered. I needed one more. An embroidered one at that.
Exuberance

Lapse
I have suffered an error in judgement. Or perhaps not quite an error. More of a lapse. I was overcome with exuberance. These things happen. It's unavoidable. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go source some tentacles...
Tense
My grafting has a tendency to be too tight. What can I say. The world is stressful. Perhaps it's making me tense. The way I fix it is to do my graft very very very loosely. Then, start at the first end of the graft, and tease the extra yarn [...]
Done…probably
I think...think I shall call it done with these three. One is level and doesn't have anything in it to give it structure (yet is still surprisingly sturdy). One is level with shallower sides and does have something (in this case, the lid off a cat treat container, for we [...]
