This is Cozy, from a pattern from Fall '04's "Knitty." I'm using Rowan Summer Tweed for this. It's slightly less than 1/4 done in this shot. The color here is pretty true; it's sort of a turquoise (the color is called Exotic)

Just one part of a work-in-progress

making some sort of half socks for my grandmother. She has thick bandages on her feet/ankles/shins but they don't cover her toes. Her socks and slippers don't fit over the bandaging so her toes get a bit cold sometimes. I thought I'd make something she can slip over the bandages as a belated Christmas present (something of a relief because she's probably the most difficult person to get gifts for on my list every year).

(Do excuse the early morning blurriness: my camera needs more coffee, too, apparently. Tidbits on the counter remain from one fine, homecooked mole´ dinner -- mine seitan, his chicken -- as well.)

2 runs of cat6 and 1 of RG-6 to each room makes for a lot of termination. These cat6 keystone jacks from monoprice were my bane -- cheap, but a lot harder to wire than others I've used.

last new stencil before I leave for NYC.

This is a picture of the difference between farm raised, and factory farming animals (specifically pigs). The background on the top would be green and the bottom yellow. It will have a hashtag to tie into my "farm fresh" social media campaign. Tagline: life should not be a factory, bring PEACE to the farms.

I have spent all week painting our bedroom yellow. Only a second coat of yellow to go around the baseboards and ceiling and some white trim touch-ups.

Never. Painting. Again.

And yes, that is my dress in a pile on the floor, thank you very much. It was a fine, fine end to a Saturday last night here at Chez Ballard.

My first batch of angora dyed with acid dyes. I have played around with

Koolaid dyeing with small batches of seconds angora to make cat toys. This

is the first time I've plopped my gorgeous prime angora into a dye pot! I

like the result! Thanks to Chris at Woolybuns for much advice and great

tips!

I wonder what the tourists going by thought as they passed, though. I was out in my Tasha Tudor dress with my straw hat, swinging a purple mesh bag filled with purple angora to spin out the water! In the afternoon when the Parkway is crowded!

Mostly Emerald Witch clothes but also a few Blythe. There's more finished in a box.

i'm working on a zero-budget makeover of this closet into a tiny little office - - just enough space for my printer, an electronics re-charging station, my mail & paperwork, and camera equipment

eh. this morning decided to bring in color. Ive laid in some indian red/venitian red glazes and some yellows. working on warms now then will go in with lighter colors. Im working mostly in glazes because i brought up so much in monochromes underneath. A little different.
