What's On My Hooks, Needles, and Spindles:
Finished:
Sockhead Hat--Done in yarn from Dizzy Blonde Studios.
Frolic Two-At-A-Time Socks:
Two-At-A-Time top-down and toe-up books by Melissa Morgan-Oakes on Amazon.
Gareth's Christmas Surprise--Crocheted Beard-Hat
In Progress: The OHM Shawl by Michelle Miller. It bit me. In time out.
Pink Waffle Socks--yarn is Cotton Candy Clouds in Sock yarn from Oink Pigments. Now here is a dyer who deserves a LOT more attention! She works very locally, so go to her site and snatch up what you can, if you arenot lucky enough to see her at a show.
Tutorial for the After-Thought Heel is here.
Dizzy Blondes:
Nothing here this week. Nope. No spinning...
Gourmet Stash. Holy spit! Look at her shop! Go spin a puni on your drop spindle. Someone who really gets drop spindling!
Strategy:
Even at rest, stay on the balls of your feet. As in ballroom dance, you will be ready to change your position at a moment's notice in life.
Put a Lid On It:
Pickled beets with cinnamon and a few jars of raspberry-chardonnay jelly.
Aw Shoot!
Not much adventure here either!
Do your 5K/30 mins of exercise and donate $10 and YOU could win in this year's CogKnitive Holiday Hustle! Must be completed by December 31st! I will offer one prize for every 3 people entered.
Additionally, K8erpillar has offered the winner's choice of a set of stitch markers from her lovely Etsy shop.
WideAngleMind is donating yarn from Cheryl Oberle!
Brenda Castie/Goodstuff is donating a choice of pattern from her collection!
Something I Really Like:
Eating in a car as you travel down the road. Dinner with a landscape movie that lacks plot, but also lacks drama. Drive-throughs just make it all better, of course--fewer interruptions--and Starbucks just makes it better!
Blather:
Pretty much covered in the other segments!
