Microfiber
I wound up running around yesterday and so didn’t get a lot of knitting done. I did start another slipper, based on the theory that I know what went wrong with the first one. I decided to use different colors for the different segments in hopes that this will visually facilitate stitching the thing together.
The hunt for the dressy scarf pattern continues. I’m thinking about using this:
Ooooooh, shiny!
You may recall that I acquired this some time ago and it has been marinating in the stash since then. It’s really pretty microfiber - the closest to silver I have ever seen in a non-metallic yarn. Though there’s practically no twist to the stuff, it isn’t difficult to work with and is absolutely gorgeous :) What I need to do is work up a small swatch and wash and block it. It is synthetic so I don’t know how or even
if it will block. Before I decide on a pattern that’s going to need rigorous dressing, I’d better find out, eh?
“Hey! Pay attention! I need petting, here!”
The monster is very spoiled for attention after his week of not feeling so hot. Myria and I were falling all over ourselves to tempt him to eat, scratch his ears, anything to help him feel better. Now that he’s back in the pink, it is his opinion is that this should continue. No he doesn’t smell bad or anything, but he’s spoiled never the less :)
Happy Thursday, folks :)
