I immediately want to do different "shelves" represnting museum storage collections. Jars of fishes, pinned insects, tribal masks, precious stones, pressed plants. I'm such a nerd. I also like the idea of doing little organisms I love like slime molds, mosses, cup fungi, and wee plants. Right, still a nerd.

Supposedly his forehead will not, and I do need to do more rinses. I had a similar but lesser situation with other indigo dyed colors from this brand (beet root and a blue). My hands would stain but not this bad. I think the charcoal is especially bad. We shall see!

That is cool! Too bad you can't spin plaid. :)

Owls & the Moon - browns and white/yellows
Tea & Cookies - tans/creams and goldens/browns
Troy & Abed (Community) - not sure the colors here. From their "In the morning" bit? Fort war with green and orange? Halloween?
Alexia & Lord Maccon (Parasol Protectorate) - black & white or green for Alexia and brown for Lord Maccon?
Gonzo & Camilla - bluepurpleish and creamy yellow?

Can't wait for Dwonton Colors!

Well the duoboots looks promising. Also it has been suggested that one can have leather stretched a bit at a cobbler. Well done gang! Keep the suggestions coming!

That looks incredible and luxurious! I wonder how that yarn would work for the Evenstar shawl...

Thanks for another educational round of show and tell. This one I'm going to queue, but even when I don't I learn a LOT about sizing, shaping, ease and judging patterns. Thank you for the show and tell!

That was my first, and probably still my favorite. Too bad it's likely a bit too small now. P sure had grown!

They are both pretty fun. Soon I should even have some progress to show on my Juneberry Triangle in my purple Quivik!

Hugs are good, thanks! This way you can't even catch my cold!

Fortunately it's not that cold here! It is snowing again, we could get over 15 inches (or 6) depending on who you watch. If you need either Burdick's or Penzy's hot chocolate I can send that your way!

It has so much texture and style. I'm really thinking it might be the one!

I would love something for Booth & Brennan from Bones (Bold colors for Booth, like red in his Cocky belt buckle or the American flag and something elegant and simple for Brennan like creams (bones!) blacks, grays or perhaps the navy of the jumpsuit when things are messy)

I thing Sean and Gus from Psych could be another good pair. Sean is wacky and bright with lime green and purple and such and Gus is reasonable with blues and browns and grays.

Lastly, I'm not sure if Le Petit Prince and his Baobab would count since it's more antagonistic but I think they would be lovely. Blue and gold for the prince and greens and browns for the evergrowing trees!

Taking electric the ball winder to new heights and making it a living room centerpiece! I wonder if I still own my soldering iron...

The mounds from where people dug out there cars is crazy. I'm both glad and not glad to be sans car. No digging out but also no such thing as a quick trip to the market! You guys have a whole driveway to shovel though... perhaps a snow blower is in your future!

PJ has fun playing with everyone! I bet his cousins like playing with him! Smart to get a bit of respite from the cold... worse in your new home than here. Soon I'll have pictures of our first real storm and my hat in action!

Hopefully a project for you! That drooling fella shouldn't get all the knit fun! (Though certainly a large chunk of it!)

Perhaps it is better they don't drive like my grandmother used to. I didn't know you weren't allowed to pass on a double yellow line till I took driver's ed.

Thanks! I put the cart up on Ravelry if you search for Grond. I think my goal might be to one day make it into sweater.

I don't always take a whole day off, but I haven instituted Chocolate for Breakfast on Saturdays and I think it is fantastic. Not just chocolate, it doesn't have to be part of your very first meal, but oh how it makes everything great!
