My 10 favourite blogs.
The ‘You Make My Day’ blog award has been doing the rounds in loads of blogs that I read; Kirsty, Lara, Alice and Needled have all mentioned either the Bluestockings blogs or Knitaluscious and I was delighted to be included. Thanks! I have enjoyed very much reading people’s lists and it has made me think […]
Washing up recordings #3, #4, #5 \_/* 28.01.08
I have three new recordings of Washing up, each of which has identified further issues/areas of interest. Firstly, the means of recording Washing up has to become more responsive to the circumstances of Washing up. Washing up happens when people are ready, when they can’t bear the sight of dirty dishes any longer, when they […]
Pattern notes.
January 2008 has begun on the wrong foot, regarding my knitting. I have had to frog several things entirely, including my Analogue Amnesty yarn hat, which was just ridiculous: My Fyberspates gloves which I was forced to admit just didn’t *fit* my hands – and the yarn is just too lovely to use in a […]
Make or break.
When writing Ravelry project posts, one has the option to place an emoticon beside the project, to describe or show one’s emotional relationship with the item detailed in the project notes. For many weeks now, the Tatami project I began ages ago, has had a grimace beside it, denoting my extreme lack of satisfaction at […]
Miso Soup
An incredible stop-gap for hunger, miso-soup is amazingly low in calories and quite high in vitamins and minerals. To make it, you will need to visit an asia-market or oriental store, and buy the following things: firm tofu spring-onions wakame (plain, dried seaweed) miso (fermented soybean paste) dashi soy sauce Assembling the soup takes minutes. […]
A change in direction
I just organised a loan and bought a car. I wanted to buy something that would be a good investment and not a complete rust bucket. By all accounts the Vauxhall Astra 1.6 Estate is fuel-efficient and it certainly has enough boot-size for whatever art-projects I decide I need to tour. It drives quite low […]
Sleeps in Oysters
Following the Xmas Swap I proposed before Christmas, last week involved a swap with Lisa Busby of Sleeps in Oysters. Our exchange began with visiting our respective installations. We traveled to Prick Your Finger together to see the Knitted Walking Stick Cosies Window Display and then went on to see Lisa’s show in the PM […]
Washing up recording #2 \_/* 06.01.08
This washing-up recording was made after lunch during the early afternoon. The food cooked involved some revision of a couple of scrawled-down curry recipes and it was cooked collaboratively and not just by me. The recipes involved peanuts, butternut squash, creamed-coconut and tinned sweetcorn. We decided that these foodstuffs would be economical and colourful, offering […]
Analogue Amnesty
Yesterday I visited Rachael Matthews and we had an extremely productive day. First of all we did some cooking, eating and washing-up. The washing-up can be heard on my Domestic Soundscape blog as soon as I get to write it up. One of the things I am extremely interested in with the washing-up project is […]
