Men Who Knit Promoting and inspiring the art of knitting amongst men.

this was my contribution to the evening concert at my folk music retreat this year.

Woad in the Garden

odd rows are purled

/ = k2tog
\ = skp
A = whatever double decrease you use
O = yarnover
blank box = k1

the grey column to the right is the "+ 1" stitch and is worked only once per row.

crochet - done from a photo of an unknown pattern on rav.

My revamp needs some tweaking - but it's getting there...

So today the column heading on MWK decide to not scroll - something I've never noticed before - and they are drivng me bonkers!

Is this new?

And the shout isn't working for me - maybe...I looked at it on another browser and I may have posted the same thing three times - but when I refreshed the page the shouts disappeared - so I don't know.

Started a shawl on friday - but in CROCHET; finished it last night and it was ALMOST dry this am. Pictures to follow.

It's a simple shawl to be used for the Dickens Festival I work in the winter.

Next up - the 18 foot scarf for the new "medical student" who has joined the cast.

my latest pattern - untested

Bird of Prey
an example of romulan folk handicraft

I will be in the DC/Baltimore area Oct 4 through 7 (okay - longer - but the previous and following weekends and monday the 3rd are already booked solid)

Any suggestions for activities?

I've spent the last two weeks trying to get windows 7 to work on my new computer. Finally gave up today and handed it over to a co-worker to sort out. How to feel totally incompetent - as this is *my job* .....

I want to hide under a rock.

Last week I had snow and had to scrape ice off the car windshield - this week we are in the high 70's - which a lot of times is as hot as it gets here in the summer.

Where was spring?

Better late then never!
