ARRR!

Ahoy, me hearties!
It’s Talk Like a Pirate Day!
I’ll be trying me bestest.
I’ll be wearing my pink pirate socks

not as cool as Boggie’s wicked skully socks. But, hey, it is the thought that counts, right? ARGH!

~& Just so this post isn’t void of fiber, here is something I finished a few days ago, but couldn’t grab a decent photo of…

272 yards
It reminds me of the yarn Josi used for a hat/scarf set in her upcoming book, In the Loop (F&W), 2007.
It is similar only in construction. One ply of a hand painted colorway, and one ply of a tinkle blend (hand dyed, hand cleaned, Montadale x Leicester)
I think it is destined to become some hats.

Al-ritey mates! I need to get the young (newly 5! ~yesterday!) wench ready for skool.
Happy TLaP day! Go have some rum for me!
ARRR!
