before there was dood...

there was this stuff. the tv show it goes along with [Swingtown] is amusing enough, but i really am liking the music. serious flashback time.

my tour de fleece experience is off the rails. i haven't spun in 3 days, but i have been working hard on Knitty and am cutting myself some slack.

the 2 ounces of tussah is half spun already, so i'm sure i'll finish by the end of the challenge. perhaps that's the problem. set a harder challenge and you can't let it drop without a disaster.

also, i'm beading again. i am stuck at how to finish the bands of peyote i've completed so they look professional and are functional without being uncomfortable to wear. i'm expecting a few bead books to arrive up here shortly, and i think they'll help significantly.

and in the downtime since i picked it up last, my large-bead peyote has become tidier [or at least i've figured out how to keep it tidier now]. pictures forthcoming shortly.

really, lots of work going on here. thank heavens i didn't plan any travel this summer. i'd be out of my mind if i had to go anywhere beyond the back yard or one of my two LYSs.
