DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM


One of my friends has given me TWO BIG BAGS of yarn. VINTAGE yarn. Like, fabulous mohair boucle that is screaming WEAVE ME. Shetland wool. Superfine rayon/wool twist. And okay, a superfine acrylic (made in FRANCE, thx!) in what can only be described as a fluorescent cherry colour. There is a lot of it.

I am just grateful no one was home when I brought in the bags.

I admit that this will not happen anytime soon.

Status: offline 		got my emperor purple in today, as well as my L and M hooks.  Mom saw them but she shrugs her shoulders.  Also...got my angels and snowflakes w/ thread in today was well.  Busy doing laundry now, with crocheting the grandy squares.

I need to lose some weight, so I will be walking later today.

Status: offline 		Oh cripes granny squares. I have a pile of them that I got from an estate sale and NO mad skillz to crochet them together! They are nice, too, each one in different colours with the black.

Yes, I need the bigger Knitters Loom. WHY did I not get borned one of those entitlement bitches who always has her hand out??? I could just say, Hey!! Want that prostate massage? Head on over to the weaving store ASAP!

Me, I just couldn't live that way. Sigh.

I decided to clean under the TV this morning and what do I find...another "from Knit to Crochet" book.

So...guess what I have to do....sell the new one, hopefully at cost.  Can't sell the old one because of some dog ears.

That is okay...I am selling a few more books (beading, candle making and jewelry making).

I got tons of snowflakes to crochet up, block and stiffen...which reminds me...I got to go over some old magzaines(?) to scan into the computer and print.  This is a 2 diet dew day...

Status: offline 		FINALLY!!!

got dozens of snowflakes scanned in (and a couple of afghans). Keeping a few magazines, especially the horse that I learn to make.  Got the directions for layettes (if I can find the time to do them).

Has anyone check the DBNY yet?  They got the move done...and giving 5%  discount...check your emails for the codeword.

Status: offline 		That place is the DEVIL I am telling you!!! I so want that Classic Elite Fame in the seaside colourway!!

I lost a batch of Melrose Cravenella on ebay... that's the vintage yarn that I got from my friend. This was a good sized lot, but I could tell that it would have been an insane bidding war over yarn that I truly have no use for. I have vague notions of a faux-Missoni thing, but what, that would get touched in 2015? And the world will have ended by then!

Status: offline 		I got the yarn that I got from England today.  Luckily Mom was asleep and I snuck them into my bedroom. I already got a Red Heart one pounder black for the granny squares and it did not last long. 

I am getting ready to work on the ladybug for my niece and the penguin for my nephew.  If there is any black leftover for these projects, I will use them for the last few squares.

Yes, this is similar to the Kiama in the Origami book. Tulip would ROCK this, but I know now that is is a NO WAY for anyone with a ghetto booTAY. Hmph.
