Psh....Beards.

Was looking at what videos were featured, etc, on Youtube's main page and came across the flollowing video. It's clean. It's people friendly. No blood. No Gore.

Enjoy.

Knitting Graffiti

I've "rediscovered" knitting graffiti and have been inspired.

Here are some links:

Morris: A Life With Bells On

I was just listening to NPR and they had a program from Canada's NPR. On the program they were talking about Morris Dancing. The radio host was interviewing this guy from England about a documentry of sorts, he did on Morris dancing called "Morris: A Life with Bells On". Something I would go see in the theatre.

I found it intriguing to watch at least (various videos on Youtube).

Here are a couple of clips for your enjoyment.

Revamping and Renewal

Ok. Last year I challenged myself to do 100 hats by the end of 2008. Ambitious, yes. Fool hearty, quite affirmative.

But now, I've basically wiped the slate clean and started the challenge anew. So, hopefully by the end of February, I'll have 16 hats finished. So far, I've got one. But granted it was a little more involved since it was a fish hat.

Now that I broke the daunting task of making the first hat, I feel I can do anything! Well, more like I've got the hat thing under control and can crank out 15 more hats by the end of the month.

The hopes are that they'll be all different and unique hats. Towards the end I may fudge that rule a little to include the meaning of different including making the same hat but out of a different yarn.
