We had such fun at the Pennsylvania Renaissance Festival today. I checked the cast list and there are two doctors listed, so I apologize for not remembering your name, but here is the promised picture in color and sepia.You can feel free to snag them here or different sizes at my flickr account if you double click I believe. I cropped them at 8x10. Hope the rest of the run is drier for you and

Roll Your Leg Over ~ by Oscar Brand

If you want to add this song to your repertoire you need to start with sheet music, or at least this recording of Oscar Brand singing "Roll Your Leg Over" from his album Bawdy Songs and Backroom Ballads Vol 1 1955.Thank you to rumandoldspice at YouTube.This is the album that inspired our version of the song. When Laura and I started The Bawdy Balladeers in the '80s, we changed the song to a

Holy Saint Francis!

Where the Holy Heck have I been since November of 2008 ?????I have no excuse, really. I hang out at Ravelry and do my knitting writing there. I even stopped posting pictures so bad I had to post a mass production for the entire year of 2009 for a special project, The 2010 Ravelympics. Here is every project and every bit of unphotographed stash I needed to enter.And my Medal for completing my

What do you think?I've been making toys for the Ravelry group Helping Kids at Hopkins. So far a knitted bunny and bear - and last night I finished a little crochet bird.

Lots of F.O.

Most of this stuff has been done for eons.My husband actually began to nag me encourage me to take picture by putting the projects in a bag with the camera and sitting them in the kitchen by the deck. He even included my big glass head. I'm ashamed to say these are very late going to their charities, but now that they are washed and bagged, I can deliver them. And now, without further ado ~

Taa Daa !

Introducing my finished April May Armwarmers. They took me a bit over a year I'm guessing, with a very long stretch between arms. I could have knit a body suit in between there - except for the fact that there's no way in hell I would do that. But they're done and they're lovely and I can thank the Ravelympics for pushing me to complete my event. WIP Wrestling was a toughie but this puppy

For Your Pleasure

Our CD For Your Pleasure from 1995 finally sold to the highest bidder at $31.75 on ebay.I feel so much better.However. I'm still working on the April May armwarmer. No wonder I put this aside for so long. The cotton yarn is going to be nice an soft once it's washed, but right now it's like knitting with twine. The pattern is beautiful, and actually forgiving if you "yo ssk"instead of "k2tog
