Barfarama!

So one day I found a pattern for a self-barfing stripey monster. Yes. And of course I had to make it. Right away.

Now way back in 2007, I bought a heap of yarn on closeout, because the colours were so pretty and, well... YARN.


And some of that yarn is still kicking around my stash. So, fortunately, I was able to just start knitting that night. A few days later... viola! Stripey self-barfing monster!







I don't have any high-action hurling shots, and I can't take any, because this dude is now hanging out at the Utah State Fair.  Basically, you toss it around a little, get it really dizzy, and then it barfs itself out to a new colour.

Double double heart

While making my hexiquilt, I sometimes charted out things I intended to stitch on a hexipuff.

Like the devil.

Or a duck.


Seems that one day I picked up my chart and realized I still hadn't stitched a double heart, and went ahead and did that.

Except I had. Apparently I stitched one up and totally forgot.


OH well! Hope that's the worst mistake I ever make, eh?
