I may have to be a Monday-Friday blogger

Until I get this new routine worked out, I may have to blog Monday through Friday.

It was a busy week end. Had to get out the door hugs--what I call those stuffed tubes of fabric, to keep the cold air from infiltraiting the Peasant House. I made this one many years ago. But it has been relocated to the back door, as you see here.

This one I made last year (I think) It is the recycled legs of #2's jeans. These legs had rested for a few years in a basket--I knew I would use them for something one day--until the Lord showed me what to use them for. I made them a little narrower [one narrower than the other, because I did not measure] and joined them together at the 'knee' part with piping. It took one whole bag of stuffing. The piping in the middle was a small scrap of factory quilted fabric. [I liked the color so I kept it] The ankle side of the legs was placed on the ends for 'show' This door hug is for the front door.

Started the sleeve for gs2. I always knit both sleeves toghether, but this time I decided to do one at a time.

Went to the yarn store after getting the goat's milk, last Thursday. #1 requested a Fair Isle hat in Crimson and White. Well, I did not like any of the reds I had, they are too orange for her, so I had a perfectly legitimate reason for going to the yarn store. I got this yarn which is 'yummy' so soft, and spongy. It's Dale of Norway's Dalegarn. Started a little swatch but needed the needles for gs2's cuff. Tonight I'll try a few stitiches and choose the 'best' one for the hat. The hat will be an andean/peruvian style with ear flaps and some sort of cord. Too bad I can't take a picture of what I'm imagining so you could see it.

I'm still behind in bread making. And I also have a recipe for 'water crackers' or 'marine crackers' I've been wanting to make. Lord willing, I'll try tomorrow. But today: errands, laundry to finish, watering the plants, and making dinner.

As far as my binder...working on it. I'll leave you with this...
