ianukWell, not that I finished anything yesterday but I made progress on lots of stuff.
Got to work around the house while mel was out shopping. I got ricotta made, more banners steamed and then headed out to grandma's to pick up some yarn for mel's water bottle cozy. Got some luscious silk merino kettle dyed yarn and when I got home we balled up the yarn and I cast on. Luckily Ari came over to drop off something and showed me how to put things on dpns (double pointed needles) and I worked away. Also had a visit from Thyra who insisted that we open our gifts. Mel got a saw till, I got yarn and a neato crochet hook set (ergo awesome) and richard got a ryobi router table. Much fun was had. Then![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
weave_dancer was over to drop off stove pipe for the steamer and we got the last banner wrapped up and ready to steam. The 4x4 banners required mods to my steamer and I'll hopefully get those steaming tomorrow...maybe tonight. We shall see how handy the boys are.
