Today I finally made time to play with my knitting looms. I am in LOVE! Dee, this is so something you can do... Martha Stewart has a loom set that also doubles as a weaving loom... I saw it at Michael's and I will wait until the new coupons come out to get it... I am over the moon with all of the cool stuff I am finding that you can do with these looms...

Happy Crafting!

There is an indie yarn dyer (desert vista dyeworks)
who runs a design a color way contest each month (on a knitting site)

so in Feb she announces the winners for march etc

well I have won several times but my march idea just came out today as a winner (6 days after the winners where anounced) cause she had to make it look nice!
My idea The Ides of March (Brutus stabbed Ceasar on this day)
sooo... white (for togas) grays/steel/silver colors (for the blade) and red blood splatters on the white for the blood in a self striping yarn.
As a winner I get a free skein!

linky loo


This is another yarn I love

atomic zombie

Feel the fear and do it anyway...Now that I have access to the internet thanks to my new neighbors(they gave me permission to use their wireless connection) I can start watching videos about how to use my different looms...

I love the tumbled glass instructions! thank you so much for them!

And I like the idea of the white runner with the sand but she wont. She doesnt want white "fluff" as she puts it. No white wedding dress, no formal bridesmaid dresses, no unity candle..so I have a feeling a runner will be out...but as I said, I Like the the idea! As well as the net!

sea sponges! Hmmm....
