I knit 5 swatches to test the various ways in which to tack down a picot edged hem on the bind off edge of a piece for maximum stretchiness and least bulk. Here are the swatches blocking.
I've started to enjoy toe-up socks, usually when I'm concerned about the amount of yarn I have, but I do from time to time knit toe up. But, it seems each time I do I decided what would really lok best at the top of the sock is a traditional picot (not the picot bind off). Unlike starting with a picot edge there are many different ways in which to turn that hem.
I was working on a special pair of socks that will be published this spring and wanted to be sure I had the proper method of turning down that edge so I knit 5 swatches and tacked down the hem in different ways for each one. On my blog I compare the stretiness and bulk of each of those methods.

From top left: 1. Uses the k2tog tbl bind off technique often used for lace, but the purl bump from the appropriate row is picked up and knit along with the other two for a k3tog tbl.
2. Uses the k2tog tbl bind off technique again, but the purl bump is picked up with each plain knit st.
3. Uses a standard bind off, but each st is knit tog with the appropriate purl bump similar to a three needle bind off.
4. No bind off is made, the live sts are tacked down with the yarn tail, one purl bump from the appropriate row per live sts on the ndl.
5. The standard cast off is used and the yarn tail is used to tack down the edge by passing the yarn through an appropriate purl bump for each edge st.
Many people walk and cycle along the Pulaski Bridge that unites Brooklyn and Queens. Long Island City-based artist Joel Voisard created Bridge that Binds to enliven the space. Alternatives Queens Committee, the Mayor’s Community Affairs Unit, and the children of Andrews Grove, designed graphics of people’s movements such as, walking, cycling, or doing the moon walk, towards the center of the bridge. On the Queens side of the bridge, images were maroon to pay homage to the 7 train and on the Brooklyn side, images are green to reference the G train. Voisard installed a bench made of found lumber in the center of the bridge (overlooking Newton Creek) to create a meeting point between the two boroughs.

Dundalk overwhelm Bangor in All Ireland Final
by Roger Corbett
Bangor’s amazing run in the All Ireland Junior Cup came to an abrupt end when they were comprehensively beaten by Dundalk, eventually losing by 55-5.
Where do you start when trying to relate and absorb the events of Saturday’s final at Chambers Park? Firstly, congratulations to worthy winners Dundalk who nullified the Bangor attack, then went on to produce some stunning plays which racked up no less than 8 tries, each by a different player. For Bangor’s part, they were unable to respond to the intensity of Dundalk’s game, and lacked the cutting edge which their opponents used to great effect.
The day started full of promise, as the strong support from North Down made their way to Chambers Park in Portadown, knowing Bangor would be fielding their best team. Once again, the pundits had Bangor as the underdogs – just as they had done so in the previous three rounds! In confounding the experts earlier, Bangor produced some awesome performances against top quality opposition to get to the final. Dundalk had produced some convincing wins in the early rounds of the competition, but had struggled to get past CIYMS in the semi-final, just managing to squeeze ahead at the second time of asking. However, with a number of key players returning to the side in time for this game, they were now back at full strength and would be a formidable force to contend with.
Having won the toss, captain Jamie Clegg elected to play into the stiff wind in the first half. For the first 5 minutes, Bangor doggedly retained possession and tried to play their way into Dundalk’s half through a series of determined forward moves. However, little ground was made and, when possession was finally lost, the Dundalk back line produced a burst that simply cut through the Bangor defence resulting in an easy touch down under Bangor’s posts for a 7-0 lead.
Bangor stuck to their plan and slowly, but patiently, got their attack moving forward, eventually winning a penalty to the left of Dundalk’s posts, but Mark Widdowson’s kick into the wind drifted just wide of the mark.
The contrast in play between the two teams was becoming clear, with Bangor trying to keep the ball close while Dundalk were throwing it wide. The latter strategy was proving to be the more effective as, with 20 minutes gone, a quick back line move with players looping around resulted in an overlap on the right wing which gave a clear run in to again, score under the posts. A further 9 minutes later, they did it again and, although the Bangor defence had sensed the danger and moved across to cover it, their tackling let them down allowing Dundalk to get over in the right hand corner, taking their lead to 19-0.
By now, Bangor were trying to hang on until half time when they could regroup and come out with the wind at their backs. Dundalk, on the other hand were anxious to press home their advantage and give them a more comfortable lead. To Bangor’s credit, although camped on their own line for lengthy spells, they dug in and managed to hold on until the referee’s half time whistle.
As the teams reappeared from the dressing rooms, it was obvious Bangor were ringing the changes, particularly in the backs. With the wind advantage having lessened considerably, Bangor got the second half underway. It was now Dundalk’s turn to adopt the slow, steady approach, just as Bangor had done earlier. However, their more confident off-loading and support play was, once again, taking play deep into Bangor’s territory. Frustration at not being able to gain possession and take play out of their danger area eventually resulted in a yellow card for Clegg after a succession of penalties. Dundalk kicked the penalty to touch, won their lineout and drove for the line. Although initially held up by the Bangor defence, Dundalk’s repeated drives were eventually rewarded with another converted score, extending their lead to 26-0.
From the touchline, the Bangor faithful had felt that if their players had managed to score first in the second half, they may have been able to mount a fight-back and close the gap to their opponents. As it was, this Dundalk score simply bolstered their confidence and pushed Bangor deeper into trouble. With Bangor still a man down, Dundalk added to the score with a penalty and then another score in the corner. Everything was now working for the Leinster men, as even the difficult touchline conversion into the biting wind successfully split the posts, bringing the score to 36-0.
As the game entered the final quarter, and with Dundalk all but holding the cup, Bangor were now on the ropes. By contrast, the Dundalk players were in almost total control, and were not going to slow down now. In a 10 minute spell, they ran in a further 3 tries, making the scoreline 55-0. By now, any sense of dejection the Bangor supporters may have been feeling was now moved to feelings of sympathy for their players. However, pride was at stake and once again Bangor rallied as the game entered its final minutes. At last, the forwards got within striking distance of the Dundalk line and, although their repeated attacks were repelled, they finally managed to do what their opponents had done so effectively, and quickly passed the ball wide to Davy Charles. Even though they were 55 points ahead, the Dundalk defence made Charles work hard to drive through the tackles and score Bangor’s consolation try, bringing the final score to 55-5.
From Bangor’s point of view, the final score doesn’t tell the whole story of this competition. While the final may have resulted in a sad anti-climax for Bangor, the remarkable journey to get there will be remembered for some time. On the day, Dundalk were by far the better side, and Bangor would have to concede that their game was not up to the usual standard. However, there is no doubt the experience of competing at this level is something to relish and the goal now will be to secure a top four place in the league and try again next year.
Everybody at the club has nothing but the highest respect and praise for what has been achieved this year by not just the 1sts, but all the senior teams, and one poor result isn’t going to change that – the welcome at Upritchard Park for the returning players is testament to that. With that in mind, the players now need to put this disappointment behind them and provide the best possible response against a struggling Portadown side at home in the league next Saturday.

In front of a big crowd at Chambers Park on Saturday afternoon Dundalk delivered a stunning and ruthless display to see off the challenge of Bangor and capture the All Ireland Junior Cup title for the very first time.
Three first half tries had them firmly in control at 19-0 ahead having played with the elements at the Portadown venue during the first half and while the wind dropped somewhat after half time the Dundalk intensity most certainly didn’t as they cut loose scoring five more tries.
Dundalk returned to a heroes welcome at their Mill Road clubhouse on Saturday night after a display of pure brilliance throughout the afternoon.
Precision, pace and skill from the Louth men from start to finish left Bangor playing second fiddle for long periods.
Bind Weed & Grass
Here's something a little different, but your going to have to use the large view feature to see what I was aiming for in the tones and almost pencil effect.
A fine art study of bind weed & grass in black & white on a subtle textured background, or a cool looking weed climbing a stalk of grass from the garden, you choose.

Remembering Parks Exhibition at Dhoby Ghuat Green. The creative installation by Pamela Lee and manufactured by Renovator Hub.
I'm performing at the Madison Museum of Contemporary Art on State St, this Friday 3/6, 5:30-6:30 pm, at a special FREE event called The Witching Hour - featuring many local artists and musicians in performances inspired by the current exhibition Something Wicked This Way Comes. It's all part of this month's First Friday A Night of Vice and Verse at MMoCA.
I am creating a small installation (a nest!) in the windows along State St and will perform there for the duration. My new piece is called That Which Binds. It explores the notion of women as “the dangerous sex.” My costume draws upon images of witches, sirens, Medusa, and other archetypal representations of wicked femininity.
Check it out. If you dare.

"A thing of beauty is a joy for ever:
Its lovliness increases; it will never
Pass into nothingness; but still will keep
A bower quiet for us, and a sleep
Full of sweet dreams, and health, and quiet breathing.
Therefore, on every morrow, are we wreathing
A flowery band to bind us to the earth,
Spite of despondence, of the inhuman dearth
Of noble natures, of the gloomy days,
Of all the unhealthy and o'er-darkn'd ways
Made for our searching: yes, in spite of all,
Some shape of beauty moves away the pall
From our dark spirits."
-John Keats
The book in the back is an Ettiquette book. I was going through the film and laughing because all the text behind the quote is about how to eat spaghetti and tortillas.
