Knitting in the wind: Surfer WIP becomes Surfer FO
http://swirl-vc.blogspot.com/2015/04/surfer-wip-becomes-surfer-fo.html
Knitting in the wind. Stoic enough to remake a garment several times over until it's good enough to wear out in public, foolish enough to buy more yarn than I could ever hope to knit, and hopeful enough keep doing it anyway. Plus the other stuff in my life. Tuesday, April 07, 2015. Surfer WIP becomes Surfer FO. I did it. I knocked the b*stard off. I have completed the Surfer top. But he likes it so, phew. Oh - and you know those ties at the neck and hem? Tuesday, April 07, 2015. Kudos on the perseverance!

Dedicated to creative pursuits. Sewing for the Life You Want. September 13, 2012. There has been a lot of talk around the blogosphere about sewing cake vs. frosting. I enjoy wearing 50’s inspired dresses to work when others are used to wearing basic jeans or skirts with blouses. This has inspired one of my co-workers to wear more dresses and I only get weird looks occasionally (alright, really just from the one lady, but we all know someone like her). Go to a fancy dinner so you can wear your fancy pants...

It's unlined but I've bound all the seams either with flat fell seams or bias binding. Saturday, February 28, 2015. Links to this post.

It sounds like aphids are the nits of the swan plant world. When you crush them they leave a pretty yellow stain on your fingers.

I made the sleeves a little short as this makes it less of a hassle when I need to wash my hands, wash dishes or whatever. Sunday, May 17, 2015. Links to this post. Saturday, May 16, 2015.

In the last couple of months it hit me that we had better rein in our spending, since we have been living off one salary since the end of January. Saturday, June 20, 2015. Links to this post.

Plus the other stuff in my life. Sunday, December 28, 2014. There's a difference between a jacket and a coat. I've shortened the skirt a lot, have added rounded sleeve tabs, will add a back tab, and plan to have 3 button fastenings: where the skirt joins the bodice and; two more betw...

Plus the other stuff in my life. Monday, July 13, 2015. Chinese authors I have loved (to read). Temporarily on a break from Kazoo Ishiguro, I have harked back to the Chinese authors I have often sought when looking for fiction I can relate to:. I need to read fiction that feels like ...
