A picture I forgot to post from my trip to London. St. James’s Park in the fall.
A squirrel in St. James’s Park. We don’t really get squirrels in my country, so I had great fun watching them run about the parks in London.
I went to London for my birthday last week (as you do). We had such lovely fall weather!
Zeeland is all sorts of yellow and blue this time of year.
Look closer.
Was dicking around with my Casio and Morris came to investigate. Clicked randomly. Ended up with a pretty neat shot!
Not exactly a great work of art, this picture, but.
Over on the dutch_crafters group on Ravelry somebody asked for pictures of our hands ‘in action’. I took this one by balancing my camera on my knee, setting the timer, and hoping for the best.
I’m working an intarsia pattern (a skull, for those interested). I keep one strand of yarn in my right hand, English style, and let go of the right needle to ‘throw’ the strand around to knit a stitch (my index finger on the left hand holds the needle in place when I let go). I keep the other strand of yarn in my left hand, continental style, the yarn going over my index finger, under my middle and ring finger, and over my pinky - I do not need to let go to knit the stitch. This way I can knit intarsia without the strands getting tangled, and by performing a neat little trick with both strands at once I do not end up with floats in the back.
Also it looks pretty fucking crafty, doing that wizard-y magic-y thing with the two strands of yarn at the same time.

In short, the Walk was all sorts of amazing if there’s another one in 2012 I am SO there. Keep on fighting the good fight, all you beautiful sluts of the world!
