New pattern coming soon...and stuff.

So, I am working out issues with a skein of cotton and front and back post double crochet. I made a couple of dish scrubbies in junk acrylic and found one that works really nicely. Now I am trying a variation on the theme with cotton cause I had it on hand...I was going to make a bath puff for hunny but that didn't work out so well. I am going to put up a picture or three and the text of the pattern once it is done.
Now the "stuff"
Tonight will be the second meeting of a local group of fiber enthusiasts. I will be bringing my works in progress and enough other stuff to demonstrate with. Those that are coming should bring their projects and questions. Once things have gotten going we can discuss what I will need to post for edification.
Mouse still on the loose but hopefully not for long.
Two packages will be going out today... One to my downstream pal and one to my***upstream*** pal. I found out that my upstream pal has been having difficulty getting any communication from her upstream and feel like sending her a hug. The person ignoring her should have more *&$%#^@& care for the obligations. I have been happily spoiled by someone that has been given next to no reason to play her part. I truly am blessed by that. (and even if I had guessed who she was, I would keep my mouth shut...) Hopefully, she will read this and know how much I appreciate her efforts.
MORE STUFF...
Why do I seem to be running out of yarn? I have yarn....really. I just can't seem to figure out what it wants to be right now. I guess there will be more Watchum Pockets coming than I had thought....Soon I will be down to the *good* stuff and then I will suffer. The nagging feeling that I should be making something "better" with the yarn.
OK, done with my whining for now.

AAAAAAARGH!

I want to find the hole that they are coming in and plug it! This time there was a mousie in my pantry. Luckily I had already used the stuff that was important to make things for pal type people but the little beastie ATE my last bag of reeses peanut butter chips, ALL of my daughters favorite oatmeal and my bags of easy cook pasta with sauce. So, I had to throw away money and clean out the cabinets on top of having to set traps. I hate having to set traps. I hate having furry invaders.
Oh, yeah. There is supposed to be some fiber content to my rantings. Working on... Heather grey k1p1 rib scarf for hunny, who has finally succumbed to my griping about him not wearing a scarf. Scarf for (might be me, might be my mom...We'll see when it's done) in a twisted
quasi-cable pattern that I am improv-ing from front post and back post double crochet. Watchum Pockets from random acrylics to be added to the storefront. Finishings on other things to go there too...Bags with buttons and such.
Other than being too busy cleaning up mouse poo to take decent pictures, That's the life and times of me for now....Wait though, the weather might change.

There are days.

When I find myself in desparate need of amusement. Then I get a whack in the head from Muse lady....She weilding the metaphorical 2x4.



Now, I need a little help finishing him up. I can add any or all of these options. Tell me what you think. a)Tail b)Neck strap c) Wrist strap/ Belt loop d) Feet/ arms
When you tell me which you like please tell me why so I can see more humor in a demonic purse.

The bag, she is done.

So the bag of holes has been finished and washe. Luckily the cotton was coclorfast and I didn't end up with a mud colored bag... Since that is done I have finished one other project and started three more. The finished object is a very small hamster....I was intent on finishing it because the pieces were driving me buggy....Thing is just about the size of my thumb. I will post pictures after the intended recipient has it in her hands. The next three things are as follows....A small stuffed turtle, a scarf for my mother and a scarf for me... Since I don't feel like working on any of them right this second I am making a coaster using some of the left over rainbow cotton. Whew. I also have to do dishes, cook dinner and go to a family outing today.... I think I need more coffee.

While I was working

I got a request from a small person so I had to put down the bagand make this....
