I love Blogthings :o)

Your Pirate Name Is...
Mad Fanny La Bouche



You Are a Glam Rocker!

You put the "show" in rock show with your larger than life self.
No doubt, you are all about making good music...
But what really gets you going is having an over the top show.
Glitter, costumes, and wild hair are your thing - with some rock thrown in!

Scrappy Flapper



This is how I spent my Saturday!!!!!
I got some amazing wool in the post this morning, from Gemma (who has started selling her wool commercially BTW my blogging friends) and it just whispered softly to me hatHatHAT :D
So I searched through my downloaded patterns, and came across the Scrappy Flapper by WoollyWormhead
It was begging to be tackled.
So I sat down, armed with newly printed out pattern, newly wound wool (god I LOVE my wool winder) 4 DPNs and fully expected to be throwing it away in disgust after attempting to cast it on and use DPNs. But, I have some bamboo DPNs and they are fabulous...no lost stitches or anything! It grew and grew and grew...then after the shaping I decided to switch to a circular, just for speeds sake really....as I wanted to complete it....I had a real NEED to complete it. I have been working tirelessly on a trade order for the past 2 months....and I just needed a boost.... and finally I edged it in crochet, with Jaeger Matchmaker Merino Aran. I have never edged anything with crochet before.....and its turned out great!
I am going to knit my boys a hat each for Christmas...and embroider BB on Dan's (Big Brother) and LB on Joel's (Little Brother) *grin*
