I had planned on telling you that I feel like things are finally starting to get back to normal -- from the holidays, the ice storm, the Olympics, being sick, and Fiber Fun In The 'Sip, but then I got to thinking, what about my life has ever been normal?
The only normal thing I've done so far this year is to finish another sailor hat.
Yarn: Red Heart Super Saver Bitty Stripes
Colorway: Crayon Box
Pattern: Basic Beanie
Needles: US 8 / 5mm
I'm going to have to wash some up and send them off soon, because I'm running out of room in my gift drawer. I'm going to send them 29 this time -- for each man on the Edmund Fitzgerald. I'm pretty sure I have enough done already. I just need to label them and find a box.
On a similar note, Saturday at FFITS, Amy was telling us about this show she's watching called The Great British Sewing Bee. Wonder of wonders, I found it on the Roku channel! Watching season one now. There are 10 of them on the Roku Channel-- seasons -- so it looks like I have a new show to binge.
In other news, I checked the weather and it's not supposed to get down below the mid 40s for at least the next week, so I put my plants out on the back porch for some fresh air and bright, indirect light.
I'll keep an eye on the weather, because there is still plenty of time for a late frost or two, but they'll be happy here for a while. You know what makes me happy? These:
And these:
By the way, I was watching the latest video from Mr. Let's Play Piano Methods on YouTube, and I realized, I only have five more songs to learn -- after the two I'm currently learning -- and I'll be done with my Alfred's level 2 book! I think once I'm done, I'll go through the Faber level 1 book before I do Alfred's level 3.
Well, I was going to get all serious with you for a moment, but I didn't sleep well last night, so I'm not going to go into all of that. I'll save it for a post when I've had a decent amount of sleep. Right now, I'm going to pop some popcorn and watch these people sew.
Laters.
