I like how these socks came out. There was some, um, interesting pooling with the yarn, but it doesn't really detract.
The whole time I was knitting these, I kept thinking they were coming out too big. I even had a dream about it. But every time I tried them on, they fit my wide foot perfectly! And in the end? They look, fit, and feel great!
Started somewhere around the beginning of April.
Frogged and restarted once.
Completed May 18, 2007.
Pattern from More Sensational Knitted Socks (80 stitches)

Rabbi Martha Bergadine with Torahs rescued from New Orleans synagogues and taken to Beth Shalom Synagogue in Baton Rouge. I was at Sabbath services on Saturday, Sept. 11, at Beth Shalom and wondered where the rabbis were -- Rabbi Bergadine's husband, Rabbi Stanton Zamek, is the leader of the synagogue. She's executive director of the Baton Rouge Jewish Federation. Officials with the New Orleans and Baton Rouge federations, escorted by deputy sheriffs from Baton Rouge, rounded up the Torahs from Reform and Conservative synagogues that morning and drove them back to Baton Rouge. They showed up right after services were over. The Torahs followed several forays by federation members and off-duty deputy sheriffs in search of Jewish residents who had been reported missing. In more than half the cases, the reported people weren't there, but other, non-Jewish flood victims were rescued and taken to safety. Many of the Torah scrolls were taken to Houston, and later returned to their congregations. Two weeks after the Torah rescue, rainfall from Hurricane Rita collapsed the roof at Beth Shalom, flooding its sanctuary and most of its building. Its Torahs were not damaged.

I had trouble with tension with this one - the sample was in the hoop so I could photograph it! I did not stitch it in the hoop. I found that I also need to be consistent in the direction I pull the thread when making the knot.
Row 1: Pearl No 5 - across 6 threads and back 2 diagonally.
Row 2: Pearl No 5 - across 4 and back 2 diagonally
Row 3: Pearl No 5 - 3 and 2 diag.
Row 4: Pearl No 3 - 4 and 2 diag
Row 5: Ribbon floss - 6 and 2 diag
Row 6: Ribbon floss - 3 and 2 diag
Row 7: Some fat cotton - 5 and 2 diag
Row 8: Pearl No 5 - zig zag scroll - I tried this in some rayon and ribbon floss and it was not successful. To me it is barely successful in Pearl thread. If I want a zig zag line in the future, I will not use this stitch.
Row 9: Pearl No 5 - stacked rows
Row 10: Pearl No 3 - two rows back to back - across 5 and back 2 diag
Row 11: Some rayon thread - a row of two scroll units stacked
Row 12: Pearl No 3 - across 5 and a 2 thread vertical pick up .
Row 13: Pearl No 3 - alternating the vertical pick-up above and below the line.
Row 14: Pearl No 3 - an experiment inspired by this piece by Elizabeth of Quieter Moments. There are some French knots.
This is an artwork I did 18 years ago. It's watercolour on an entire checkout paper roll. I was fascinated (and still am) by drawing as pure creative output and spent a month or so painting this pretty much random abstraction. I had it set up so that viewers could wind it by hand from one reel to another, this reel is all that's left. I've been meaning to scan it all in and make a flash based carousel but working out just how to scan it easily is proving difficult.
Day 15 I usually end up falling asleep doing this...phone in hand, scrolling through my Twitter & Instagram feeds until my eyes get tired.
Along the River during Qingming Festival
Twenty-eight boats and ships are depicted on the river, which meanders through the entire length of the scroll.
Here is an excerpt from my Egyptian Book of the Dead project. Egyptian papyrus painting was done with ground pigments and water, in a similar fashion to Chinese brush painting. Using animal hair brushes, the watercolor was applied to papyrus sheets with single-stroke fashion. I used my knowledge of Chinese brush painting and poetry to generate a new version of the BOTD. This is also just a prototype to an even larger piece I will do.
Done in Chinese ground inks and tube watercolors on rice paper.
This is the first panel of the long scroll, featuring Manu (the man) and his wife. Manu has just died and begins his long journey to the Field of Reeds by showing adoration to Ra, depicted here as the sun. A tower of offerings, many of which reminded me of traditional Chinese offerings, rises up to Ra.
April 22, 2010, Scroll of Honor Dedication. Nearly 500 Clemson University graduates who died in service to their country were remembered Thursday during dedication ceremonies for the Scroll of Honor. Clemson President James Barker and selected dignitaries unveiled two purple-shrouded tiger statues as a crowd of up 1,000 applauded and stood at attention. To date 470 names are etched into the stone scroll. There are 27 names from WWI; one from the Nicaraguan campaign; 378 from WWII; 17 more from Korea; one, that of a pilot, from the Cuban missile crisis; 25 from the Vietnam War: and 19 from the Cold War era and the wars on terror. Two additional names were added just as the ceremony took place. The Clemson Corps, organized in 1999, is responsible for maintaining the Scroll of Honor records. The corps is associated with the Clemson Alumni Association and helps raise funds for the preservation of Clemson's military history and the creation of scholarships for ROTC cadets..

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we
cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We felt that the photograph was unsuitable or inappropriate for our Flickr photostream
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
