It feels like an Autumnal morning, gloomy and rainy, but it's only August! C'mon Summer, let's see the sunshine again. Yesterday it was a case of dodging the showers. I wasn't too successful and got soaked, but I did squelch my way into a charity shop where I picked up this nice jug.
Not sure what I'll use it for, but I knew I'd regret it if I didn't buy it.
In the evening I got stuck into knitting coral. Yup, coral. Nope, I don't know why either ... actually I do know why. I'm very, very probably taking part in this year's Front Room Art Trail, so I need to be thinking about what 'artistic' venture I'll be showing off. I've seen some amazing photographs on Flicker and subversiveyarn's website of knitted & crocheted coral reefs, and I want to have a go. I've got this so-far vague-ish idea of an underwater scene, with blue netting or satiny material as backing, then on top knitted and felt pieces of underwater creatures, shells etc. It's not too clear yet, so it may not happen.
My work basket with assorted experiments.
