Busy #weaving a No Trump-vember Scarf while watching the poll numbers. Love the white stripe down the center.

So sad to hear Teri Garr died. Such a comedic handful in Young Frankenstein. My favorite: Roll in ze hay youtu.be/RasZ30Nsqm0?si=FAPb… via @YouTube

My second half of the October Inkle Loom Challenge: Just because it’s election season. My red, white, and blue band. Ta-da!

Finished my green bag (crochet’d). Straps were made on my Inkle loom. Added 4 D rings. First half of the October Inkle Loom Challenge.

I’m matching my band to the macrame cord I’m using to crochet a bag. Basing my design on a Latvian flower band on YouTube, just changed the colors. Fingers crossed this turns out the way it’s supposed to!

Starting the October Inkle Loom Challenge today. Here’s the heddle / unheddle pattern and my thread card to make sure there’s no color boo-boos. This should be fun!

Weaving my blue scarf while listening to the Weather Channel and Dr. Knabb break down Hurricane Helene’s progress (now a Cat 4 w/135 mph).

Thanks! The pattern was a headache but got thru it. The part on the Inkle loom was best.

My birthday yarn came in. 45% silk, 55% merino. So pretty. Oddly, it is the same color as my dahlias. Will have to think on the design for the scarf as I finish up my blue/white scarf. Thinking on the possibilities is the fun part.

I didn’t know it was Mary’s birthday. Well, happy birthday, Mary!

My dahlias are just gorgeous. Some animal has been making a bed right in the middle of them. I put down some bamboo sticks to discourage. Mu-haha!

Okay, onto birthday scarf #2. Actually working on this while waiting on my ooo-la-la yarn for birthday scarf #3 to come in. Inspired by curly-n-yarny.com/. Would drive my eyeballs crazy with this yarn, so had to corral the design with dark blue fences. I’ll see if it works.

The thing is I’ve used this yarn for weaving another scarf and had no shredding problem (see below). But the other thing is I get to buy new yarn. Yea! Are you still crocheting?

My yarn for my birthday scarf was not strong enough. Boohoo. Looking at crochet patterns to see if yarn will do. Honey has said I can get more yarn since it’s for my birthday. 😘

(Market bag below). I’ll do another one or so to get this down. Ton of work. Yes, a month until my birthday!!! I keep forgetting how old I am. 😆 Fingers crossed on the new scarf. I’m doing ok. A problem w/my blood pressure. Left arm in the low 80’s; right arm in the 170’s. 😱 😘

Finished my purple market bag. It did not turn out so pretty, but good practice especially using the Inkle loom for the webbing. So, now on to my birthday scarf! Using Hobbii’s Winter Glow which is so soft. I’m calling this one “Gray Mist” as the weft yarn is gray.
