Bits and pieces
I did take my camera to Canberra, but as usual, apart from the visit to the Big Merino, I failed to take it out of my bag. Ailsa didn't! Her husband took this picture of Jacqueline, Ailsa and myself.
Knitting wise, I've done some work on Emily's Selbu Modern.
I'm a little worried that the contrast Pink is too close to the pink in the variegated colourway, but it might be alright.
And of course, there's been sewing going on. My supervisor takes her job very seriously.
Me getting on the floor to cut things out is her favourite part, although she has been known to inspect my cutting very closely. Like close enough to almost get the tip of an ear lopped off!
My 18 month old computer is going back for it's second repair tomorrow, so I probably won't be around as much. I have my iPhone, and I can use Emily's and David's computers when they're not qith them, but excuse me if you email me and I take a while to get back to you! Maybe I'll get lots of sewing done without my computer here to distract me!

Twinkie is so cute. I usually catch one of the kittens laying on whatever is on the blocking board. I have learned to put the blocking in a closed room when I am not around.
I love that hat. I found the pattern last night and may have to make one. I have a few skeins of Koigu around the house.

Posted by: Michelle at May 21, 2009 04:56 PMThat is a very good picture of all three of you. Keeper for sure. I think your choice of colours for the hat is perfect. Very intriuging fabric. Looking forward to the finished item.
