New mantra

If you can't put it on without help, you can't buy it. Dd's and I were shopping , trying on things. Ran into a couple of dresses that required a group effort. So our new mottos revolve around the ability to dress and undress oneself without assistance. Giggling but no photos.

Geometry

When is a square like a rectangle? It isn't. Although that's what happens when you don't pay attention and follow the pattern that says increase on row one and decrease on row 2 after you get to 35 stitches. Then you just get a square and have to frog back from 64 stitches back to 35 😜.

Other then that I think that the slanted baby hat will be cute.

Really strange

Looking clouds. Unfortunately my little phone camera doesn't really show the glow coming through these warty looking clouds. I was laying on my back on a boat looking straight at the sky when I took this picture.

Something different

I decided to make a parrot. And now all I can think of is the Monty python dead parrot sketch.

I finished a boring hat to add bunch that will be mailed to pine ridge. I've cast on a baby sweater. Did 2 dish cloths to go to kuna's son in the 'Stan And hope to finish my yoked sweater. Knitting and sitting in hot humid weather was very productive.

What I've been up to

The pink cotton baby sweater decided it really wanted to become soft pink face cloths for kuna13s son's unit.

And I finished my house sign. My glass cutting skills and soldering are a little rusty after not using them for years but I think it will be fine hanging on a lamppost.

The body is done

How cool is this

A new app translates your photos into water color. Some pictures work much better then others and you have little control over how the color combos you select are applied. For example you can't choose a specific color for a detail of your pic. But for 99 I thought it was a fun purchase.

Not knitting

A bowling ball. Glass tiles. Glue. Glue this weekend. Grout next. Then it will be a gazing ball.
