Crafty Snargle: Summary

June 25, 2006

Summary

This should give you a summary of how things are here at Chez Snargle:

Recently, the independent variable (TV time) has been very small - in fact, near 0. Thus, due to the near-linear relationship between TV time and knitting time, the dependent variable (knitting time) has also decreased to near-zero. Ergo, no progress pictures.

I have been crafting. Here is a photo of everything I sent out in the Sea Swap on craftster.org.

There are coral-esque earrings made from seed beads (online how-to here), an ocean-themed collage (closeup here) with a photo that I took of an orca in Alaska a few years ago, a stencilled and reconstructed t-shirt, and a knitted Nautie. Yes, knitting! Can you stand it? He's from some of the Kool-Aid dyed yarn that I did ages and ages ago.

Cute, isn't he?
If you're curious about everything else that was sent and received in the swap, you can visit the gallery here.

And my assertion that I haven't been knitting much is true, but I do have something to show you. Next time :)

Did you make that stencil for the shirt and put it on yourself? I ask because it looks AWESOME. Ha, and I find your chart to be fabulous and so true.

Your Nautie is sooo cute! I am giving myself fits trying to make one. I have avoided DPN's like the plague....

Weird. I just cliked on over here from that craftster thread, and your blog tagline is the same as mine. How does that cliched saying go again...

Oh yeah, nice nautie! I signed up for the nautie knitalong on craftster and haven't made mine yet. Yours is great with the hand-dyed.
