No regrets, just love

What I see is so much more than I can say

Yesterday I posted a lengthy and photo-rich account of some overdyeing experiments. You can read it all at Toxophily, or if you aren't interested in the details, just revel in the eye candy.

But I know that what Noel and other family members are craving isn't pictures of yarn. So to go along with the above photo snapped as we were heading toward the exhibits at EcoFest 2012, here's a short piece of writing that Cady Gray brought home from school.

The Tye-Dye

Once upon a time, I went to Tennessee with my Grandma Libby. We Tye-Dyed one day with a tye-dye kit. We did three swirl patterns and two bullseyes. I did a freehand and one of the swirls. I did a swirl pair of socks and a pair of splatter socks too. We used a neon color kit, but we have a primary one at home. I hope I get to do it again someday.

Cube by cube

Today's post about my awesome crafting area in progress is at Toxophily.

 Pictures galore!  Just ignore the wallpaper and carpet.  Yeah, I know we should have replaced them before I put a bunch of new furniture in the room.  Someday.

The plot thickens

Today's post, about how I will probably spend most of my time while Noel and the kids are away, is at Toxophily. And if you're interested in my sermon for today, here's the text.

Tarnation

It was a rainy day. Toad Suck Daze, horror of horrors, was canceled. (The downtown streets where the vendor booths are set up tend to flood.) What to do?

Make t-shirt yarn!

Read all about it in today's post at Toxophily.
