I turns out it is tri-colored (peas porridge hot!) , about one row per stripe. To take advantage of that, I wanted to find a slip-stitch pattern that... http://now.what-happens.com/old2ktog/archives/2006/02/slip-sliding_aw.html http://now.what-happens.com/old2ktog/archives/2006/02/slip-sliding_aw.html Tue, 21 Feb 2006 23:15:56 -0500 This is really a huge tragedy in our house. MiMi has lost Lopi Mouse, or rather Lopi Mouse has deserted his post as friend and companion, right after the photos for the mouse post were taken.

I organize my life from the inside out. Our physical space is always cluttered, pets, laundry, art and craft projects, I don't know how to really contain it all. But inwardly I try to... http://now.what-happens.com/old2ktog/archives/2006/01/lists_no_eye_ca.html http://now.what-happens.com/old2ktog/archives/2006/01/lists_no_eye_ca.html Mon, 30 Jan 2006 11:55:29 -0500 I'm trying very hard to not turn this into MiMi's blog.

We set up a trade: cat bed for cloth menstrual pads. How can it get better than that? Of course, life being what... http://now.what-happens.com/old2ktog/archives/2006/01/cool_tones.html http://now.what-happens.com/old2ktog/archives/2006/01/cool_tones.html Sun, 29 Jan 2006 09:59:57 -0500 Today's post is all about magic. The magic of mobius. The magic of bunnies. Remember how long ago I started a Cat Bordhi felted mobius basket?
