A lace maze is in jest: Another DaVinci Disorder* flare.
http://lacemaze.blogspot.com/2015/08/another-davinci-disorder-flare.html
A lace maze is in jest. May I finish as many things as I start. Thursday, August 13, 2015. Another DaVinci Disorder* flare. I'm happy to report a finished object this week. That's 356 yards (326m) of Cascade 220 in a lovely coral with the compelling color name 7830. This is a variation on the BFF cowl. Where my link at, woman? I will wait patiently. No rush. When you get to it, you know. I love that the plaids are matched on the side, but my favorite part is the liner and the shirt pocket inside. This on...

A lace maze is in jest. May I finish as many things as I start. Thursday, January 29, 2015. A lot of blue in this post, it seems. Or that there's a little ball of it under the couch somewhere. I would not rule out the latter. There's no telling what's under there. I'm a little afraid to look, actually. Privet soup: To dye for. I think I'm starting to get the hang of the hand-rolled hem, which is:. First one done, and a little bit of snow. Both hems done. No snow. They've since had a brief date with the i...

A Woolly Discipline: March 2015
http://awoollydiscipline.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 30, 2015. That's How We Essay. My post on Project Polygamy. Last week sparked some interesting conversations. Several people mentioned that they get anxious, stressed, or just don't like having a lot of projects on the needles at once. We all agreed at the end of the day though that the number of projects one is comfortable with is, as one of the grand dames of quilting. Would have said, a Personal, Private Measurement. Which is to say, your mileage may vary, and that's okay too. I think I ...

A Woolly Discipline: The Most Wonderful Time of the Year!
http://awoollydiscipline.blogspot.com/2015/04/the-most-wonderful-time-of-year.html
Friday, April 03, 2015. The Most Wonderful Time of the Year! Chag sameach, and good Passover to those that observe and celebrate it. It's a favorite time of year here at chez woolly. The grass is green, the forsythia and red bud are in bloom, and it's time to shop for lamb and matzo. Passover is a time for rebirth and renewal. It's a New Year's celebration where we celebrate what it means to be free. But there's a nice synergy to the timing anyway. I am very grateful for the freedom to be able to rid...

A lace maze is in jest. May I finish as many things as I start. Thursday, March 26, 2015. In the Spirit of Excellence. I bring this up because in the second picture, just behind and to the left of sweet Miss Bu, is my floor loom. It's a 36" Leclerc Mira 4-shaft 4-harness that I got for far less than she was worth to me. After a little repair and cleaning up, I got her working and managed some rudimentary fabric, but I really hadn't learned to weave as such. Those two things are actually the same thing.

A lace maze is in jest: September 2012
http://lacemaze.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
A lace maze is in jest. May I finish as many things as I start. Friday, September 28, 2012. Clear sight and green rage monsters. Even so, I'm making a concerted effort for good health and that means wrestling with dieticians and counting carbs and testing when I should. Gratuitous shot of a butterfly from our garden. That has nothing to do with this post. It's just pretty. Friday, September 14, 2012. Next on, "As the Seasons Turn.". That I have roses and my zinnia have just exploded after having planted ...

A lace maze is in jest: I just work here. (Fear is the mind-killer)

A lace maze is in jest. May I finish as many things as I start. Thursday, May 14, 2015. I just work here. (Fear is the mind-killer). Fear is the mind-killer. Where the fear has gone, only my seams will remain. This week's technique is a two-fer as far as videos go and this week, I actually watched the video before. Trying the technique instead of my usual M.O. where I just do the thing and then watch a video about it. Sewing with knit fabrics. Part One is an overview of knit fabrics and how they behave:.

A lace maze is in jest: February 2015
http://lacemaze.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
A lace maze is in jest. May I finish as many things as I start. Thursday, February 26, 2015. Most of this week has continued to be covered in ice and snow, but at least the kids are back in school. We were all craving some normalcy after last week's icy shenanigans. It's snowing now, but snow isn't nearly as much of a problem as the ice. Snow is fine. Ice is treacherous. On the bright side, I'm a stripe and a row away from being done with Mr. Rippley, my coffee friend. A little bit of weaving in ...I als...

And Iris brought home a little something for herself with which she might make a hat. Bekah. Summed up the visit pretty well, actually. This is Sam's brother, Frank. I'm rambling today. I hope you'll forgive me for it. I don't do posts like this often, but knitting is happening, too. I've got one heel done on these.

Saturday, January 31, 2015. FO: Red Hot Toe Up Socks. Can you get over this finishing streak? Earlier this week Morgan cocked her head to the side and said with no little bemusement, "It's not even February yet.". Don't worry kid, I got more coming. February will be plenty busy. Pretty sure the only thing sock blockers are good for is posing socks for photos. Pattern: Double Gusset on Bottom Toe Up Sock. Yarn: Lion Brand Sock Ease Prints. I know, right? Started: November 23, 2014. As promised and predict...
