OMG, I just saw the skull. And the octopus. Tomorrow's headline: "Display windows at new boutique broken into, merchandise ignored, decorative objects stolen."
Honestly, I covet the critters more than the merchandise. Sigh.
I want that skull. I WANT it. I am having a little grown-up hissy fit here.![]()
I have found working with my hands whether sewing or beading is very soothing, absorbing and a terrific distraction from stress.Eagle, I make scarves and shawls mostly. I like working with lace weight silk-blends that open up after blocking. And chunky baby alpaca that work up into cosy statement pieces that unfortunately shed like crazy. I've also made some blankets and throws and cushions for niece/nephew etc. There is something so therapeutic about the yarn working its way through my fingers. I enjoy crochet more than knitting as I can wrap my hook to make it ergonomic, while knitting needles feel cold and skinny in my hands. Plus it seems there's more hand to yarn contact when I crochet.
