Myself, I’m pleased. The forecast for this area had been rain but the rain came through last night, probably as a consequence of the semi-fierce winds that have been scouring the area for the last few days. So today the sky is blue and clear, the sun is shining and it’s a beautiful day. This is all very cool by me :)
Myria took advantage of the low sun the other day to take some pictures of my large quartz cluster. It’s a beautiful piece and she’s such a good photographer!
One of many clusters
The above photo makes me wonder what it might be like to live in such a landscape. It would be spectacularly beautiful, but cold, I suspect.
Crystal Cave
One could live in this little cave, here. All it needs is a beaded curtain and a “Beware of Dragons” sign :)
The mitts are finished and the pattern is on the sidebar. Myria suggested the name “The Someone-Stole-the-Fingers-from-my-Gloves Gloves” and I thought that was perfect - so that’s what they are called.
The pair of them :)
As always, please let me know if anything is wrong or unclear; I’ll do whatever I can to help.
And, as always, have a fun and relaxing weekend!
No trackbacks yet.
Oh, your crystal cluster is so pretty! and the gloves with the lost fingers are awesome. I love the stitch that you used. I don’t knit (I’m a crocheter) but seeing stuff like yours makes me wish I did. Great color, too. Have a great weekend!

Lovely crystal…definitely right up Merlin’s alley.
The mitts are worthy of Guinevere.
Happy weekend!
Oh those crystals are gorgeous!! I am in love and also in ‘serious envy”!!!!!!
The gloves are great, too. superb job.

Dawn - If you ever want to knit, these would make a good project for you as they’re simple. But they’d be simple to crochet too, wouldn’t they? Hmmm…that might be something to try!
Bron - Thanks and thanks! I was thinking of your Guenivere’s Bower bag while I was working on them and Myria thought I should be holding a sword for the pictures :)
Deb - Thanks - quartz is about my favorite and I was lucky to get a piece like this :)
the finished non-gloves are great- and thanks for sharing the pattern-
that crystal is just incredible- i love its clean and icy look- i have bowls and baskets of petrified wood as well as some interesting agates and uncut topaz- also a big bowl of ‘pretty rocks’ picked up by the children when they were young- i figure if i am accused frequently of having rocks in my head i might as well have some out for display purposes too-
hope you have a bright weekend to enjoy- stay happy-
Oooh, that is one very glittery crystal :)
Barb - Heheh, rocks are fun to collect. I have bowls of them too - and the bowls are themselves agate.
Enjoy the pattern :)
Pam - Yes it is - especially when it’s sitting in the sun. Poor thing needs a good cleaning though :)
The crystal is beautiful, looks just like ice. Very nice gloves…I love the stitch work and color.
Maureen - Well, I can’t take credit for the crystal, but I sure do appreciate it’s beauty.
The mitts were just fun :) I see more in my future!
