Why Couldn't Y'all Lie?

HPIM2493Bah. Broomstick shroomstick. I dunno if I'm up for it. I mean, I could do it, but really, there's no replacing that blanket so why try? I think I'll have to weasel my way outta that. Dammit. Friggin' crochet. At least one thing cheered me up yesterday. Somerset, aka LadyLungDoc, sent me a wonderful birthday present! Santa Wool and a Turtle Watch fob! I think that's what you call it anyway. It's a watch shaped like a turtle that hangs from a clip. It's so cute! Can't see it though, can ya? Here's a better look: HPIM2494 HPIM2495 She said it was a lost turtle and she meant for it to find it's way home. Awwww. He sure did. Thank you, Somerset! I also received another set of stitchmarkers on Monday! These are from PrincessRach84. It's neat to see how different everyone makes their markers. She uses wire to string her beads from and ties it very tightly around the ring and hides the end back inside the beads. How she deos this, I have no idea. But I like it. The iridescent beads are gorgeous. And check out the cute little pin she included with it! Hee hee. Monkey love. Thank you Princess! HPIM2492

Nope, sorry, broomstick lace, crochet but just easy single crochet stitches. If you want to borrow my inch-diameter broomstick dowel, let me know. If you'll remember, I kinda started on a broomstick lace scarf but it's been temporarily abandoned. The yarn I was using was light so it got annoying fast. A hardier yarn like one needed for an afghan shouldn't be so bad.

Aw, what cute stitch markers! And now I see that I need a watch on a fob - so much cooler than a wristwatch!
