I finished the Noro striped, striped scarf. I made it from Kureyon colourways #207 and #164. Think it turned out really nice - used all of 4 skeins but had to do a little patching because Noro has the AWFUL habit (GRRRRRR) of suddenly having a knot and the colour changes dramatically. I had to kind of hunt and paste to get back to the colour flow. It is about 6 1/2 feet long and the colours make it unisex - really nice for everyone and will match anything. It is also nice and soft .
And - what is worse that getting behind a bicycle on the highway?
Getting behind a unicycle!
Yarmouth hosted the First Annual Ride the Lobster 800 km unicycle relay race. It started in Yarmouth as most contestants came over on The Cat. I kept "running" into them. I had to go to Halifax yesterday for a root canal and had to pick up things all over (hoops, hooks, wool) as I worked my way back to Yarmouth. I was going back to Yarmouth as the unicycles were working their way towards Halifax.
My mouth is sore, your father is in Frankfort with a new project with ETS on adult literacy testing, so it is quiet here - or should have been. I had some visitors to the studio (Tin Pot Textiles) which was nice. They liked my work and we had a nice chat except that I also had the Orkin Man here at the same time because we found some ants but he couldn't find any - except the way the mice were getting into the basement (which I fixed with some expanding foam and steel wool) .....interesting afternoon!Dad really liked his father's day present, your brother is having success playing with the Styrofoam Ones (a group in Toronto - Clay plays the drums) - all is well.
Love ya,
Mom
