Oh Yeah! Fake sinew ties removed, rinsed, and now hanging to dry… Geode patterned Tie-Dye is so cool. I used Coral, Sage, Cinnamon, and Black powdered dyes with melted ice to allow the dye to penetrate slowly and unevenly into the cotton. Probably should’ve avoided the bulls-eye on the front - but compared to the T-Shirt dresses I’ve done, the ‘canvas’ of a long-sleeved t-shirt was more limiting. #tiedye #geodetiedye https://www.instagram.com/p/CZ4TeYVrrXZ/?utm_medium=tumblr

Taking a break from hat-making to make some fingerless gloves… the “l” on the left one isn’t as clear as the “r” on the right one… Oh, well. #knitting #senseofdirectionmitts https://www.instagram.com/p/CW2CFo7LFkW/?utm_medium=tumblr

Trying some new stuff - beadwork and a flat-topped cap from my new “Knitting Magic” HP inspired pattern book using some over-dyed recycled wool yarn from a thrift store purchase quite a number of years ago (the navy blue) And the rainbow-hued yarn that’s a more recent project. #knitting #harrypotter #recycledfashion #handdyedyarn https://www.instagram.com/p/CV-2oLKp8n7/?utm_medium=tumblr

Gah!!!!! Even with a Way-Back machine, a bucket of makeup, AND a truckload of gold could “A” EVER resemble “B”… but isn’t the magic of A. I. fascinating? (Was just looking for an app to show me if I should grow my hair a little longer - yikes!) https://www.instagram.com/p/CV0Hdm8L6wx/?utm_medium=tumblr

Sometimes you just gotta break down and BUY the pattern… Wolly Wormhead’s Hat Patterns are The Bomb! This one even has a “map”!#wollywormheadhats #knitting #redheartyarn (at Hillsborough, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVpzZeuLIjg/?utm_medium=tumblr

Slowly building up my ‘inventory’ again - previous ones were either sold at Senior Center Plant/Craft sale or ‘borrowed’ by hubby to leave around Cubicle Farm at Employer for surprises for coworkers. (He’s such a sweetie and I know his coworkers appreciate him, too!) #cactus #yarn #knitting #crochet https://www.instagram.com/p/CVfff-MJhfd/?utm_medium=tumblr

Last tier about to be ‘launched’… my formula for ultimate twirliness is 1-1/2 x the length of the previous tier… and then gathered and stitched in place… the bottom tier is something like 10 yards long - a math whiz could make a Great “Story Problem” here: what is the approximate measurement of Karen’s waist?… let’s just say that, even 100 lbs less than I was a few years ago, I will Never qualify as ‘houglass’ shaped - but rather ‘lumpy sack of potatoes’ shaped! LOL #halloween #sewing https://www.instagram.com/p/CVfeeASJTpf/?utm_medium=tumblr

Sitting here absorbing caffeine and vitamin D in order to be motivated to get the Aunt Karen sized skirt done. Bottom tier is 81 squares around - gonna be so ridiculous - but, isn’t that REALLY what I LIVE FOR! (Oh, Lord… I am channeling my Dad - who used to regularly embarrass me to death on a regular basis!) #sewing #hillsboroughcupajoe https://www.instagram.com/p/CVS6pmWLoRe/?utm_medium=tumblr

Getting Ready for SpookyTime! Alas, after I cut a bazillion 5” squares, I’ll need to dig out my sewing machine (it’s surrounded by boxes of stuff that are ‘temporarily displaced’ by the floor re-do.. grrrr!) #halloween https://www.instagram.com/p/CTXdFzuLxIZ/?utm_medium=tumblr

Enjoying the deck renovations, creepy Sci-Fi Thriller, and being outdoors (and less itching - hurrah!!!!) this morning - weather guy hinted at record warmth this afternoon - but I am blissful for the moment! #knitting #andyweir #hillsboroughnc #gratitude https://www.instagram.com/p/CPa9_IZp-2Y/?utm_medium=tumblr

Visiting Maternal Unit this weekend - she knits hats to put in Shoebox Ministry boxes for kids in other countries... she got this COOL little hat pin from a friend. Must’ve been knit with size 00000 needles and laceweight wool - but squeee! (Ignore garden soil stained finger with home manicure... guess I need a visit to Madge the Manicurist! #shoeboxministry #knitting #miniatureknitting https://www.instagram.com/p/COVRhX2pgjP/?igshid=1ukv5gzimccfd
