Day before thanksgiving

Tomorrow we're running before coming home to cook, so tonight is a metric ton of pasta. 

Here are some more things from today:

Dark and stormy - working on sleeves. 

Pie!  Trying a new crust this year http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/perfect-pie-crust-recipe.html. 

2 things

I put the pompom in that - now even uglier!  I love this thing.  

My new favorite addition to my wardrobe - a heavier duty knee brace 

Yeah, that's a lot of Velcro but it works!

How big should a lap blanket be?

I'm thinking 12 squares, 3 x 4. I'm not sure if I have enough yarn.  I think I need one more skein of the red.  I don't like the tan pattern rounds- better to have them all red.  

Finishing Tympany

First, I just done with a conference and got to see some colleagues from where we used to work - it was great.  Got to introduce them to current colleagues and we all had lunch - the most work fun I've had in a long time. 

But now it's the weekend. 

So, Larry's hat needed a pompom.  I finally Googled how to make one and here it is ...

Everyone loves pompous!

Some stuff

Galiano vest in Knitpicks Hawthorne Rose City (and yes, this inspired me to re-read the Scarlett Letter). This needs a better picture. 

Dark and Stormy- Green Mtn Spinnery AlpacElegance - 70% done

Tympany hat - using up Chroma odds and ends, lined with Comfy. Needs a pompom. 

Long time

So, the Blogger app was getting buggy and not wanting to load pictures, so I got out of the habit. Let me try and restart. 

At work, we do monthly displays relating to the law, or law libraries, or whatever.  It was my turn. I did copyright law and knitwear design.  I put a 10 minute slideshow on title 17 and the history of knitting and got our knitting group to donate their work. 

It's been really popular- shockingly so. With guys, too.
