note to self:

The last row with any gap between the garter border will be the row of six. Make that row 32 of the pattern.

( a thoroughly helpful list )

Thanks for being with me while I thought that through out loud. :-)

this is just to say

I am done, really finished, thanks, with totes. Its use by people who wish to convey "totally" in one hip syllable should please cease immediately. Consign it to the Get That Away From Me heap along with tat (=tattoo; I have no quarrel with "tit for tat") and hubby (and all its derivatives, chiefly hub and hubs and, ugh, hubster). ('rents can stay, and no, I have no explanation for the variety in my preferences here. I'm unpredictable. [g])

moar progress

This is two skeins:



And this is two and a bit, bound off and blocked out square.



Or, to be more accurate, blocking. It's pinned down (with, though the picture is almost the same so I haven't included it here, the triangle bit also pinned to its corner), and I can't work any more on it until it dries, and I am impatient. Wah.
