I'm ridiculously excited about it, but I found the tags I was looking for at an office supply store. Now I'm tagging my yarn so I can keep it on display in my baskets and remember the intended projects! Wonder why I never thought of doing this before? I'll have to take a few pictures soon.
I'm not so happy with this knitted basket. I should have picked up for the ribbing in the opposite direction so it doesn't show when folded. Oh well, I may leave it as is, or I may go back and redo. No decision just yet. What do you think?
We just got back from a weekend trip to Baltimore, which gave me so much knitting time that I nearly gave myself a blister on my thumb. But I finished another project, the Gator Gaiter, and started on the Honey Cowl. I'm telling you, this new system is really working for me!
Here are a few photos from the Fell's Point area of Baltimore:
A favorite pub,
And a cool window decoration using yarn. Since I didn't visit any yarn shops, I had to include this photo!
We ate in Little Italy,
I'd leave the bowl as is. I think it looks nice. Baltimore sounds like a great trip. Sorry you took a spill.
ReplyDeleteI may felt it just a bit to add stability. Falling in cities is my M.O. cause I am always trying to see everything at once. So far, I've fallen in New York, Chicago, and now Baltimore. Not counting inside my house, :)
DeleteIs Falling in Cities a Guinness record book category? Funny how you put the fall after the little Italy lunch...any connection? Hope you didn't injure anything.
ReplyDeleteI'd leave the bowl - it looks fine to me and I'd never have known if you hadn't said. Most of us knitters are realists not purists.
I know how you feel about falling. I trip over dust motes all the time!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the trip to Bal'more (can you tell we've been watching the wire?).
I love your idea of picking out patterns and matching them to yarn. I should give that a try.
