I was also going to suggest a pair of Speedos underneath to avoid a tip slip but then again that would not be historically accurate.Ĭan we have Snip 'n' Zip as a Craftsy class one day soon? Pretty please?Īlthough not historically accurate, I'm sure it would be simple enough to find a piece of synthetic bathing suit lining material and stitch a "Whoopsie Preventor" in place. You just made a ton of us laugh too damn hard.
Perhaps you could wear a shapely pair of tight bike shorts underneath? I can tell you right now - they were inadequate. One false step and HELLO EVERYBODY!īack in the olden days, the 50's, Children's Hospital in Boston made its helpless victims wear cotton bottoms that exact same shape with cotton strings on the sides. That's in keeping with period images of this sort of swimwear, but it really hits home when I've got them on. That being said, the fit is startlingly revealing. Preliminary fittings indicate that the proportions in the original pattern are spot-on. Put out the flags.Īnd the Victorian bathing drawers for the Nautical Knitting cruise proceed apace. I've finished the trickiest part–designing the yoke pattern–after only four tries. It doesn't seem to pill much–what you see above has been knit and raveled six times and carried around in a bag for months. The colors, as you would expect, are luscious. It's knitting up very much like Léttlopi (which I used in my Icelandic sweater), but it's extremely soft and feels sweet as it runs through your fingers. Lorna's Laces sent me a nice supply of one of their new yarns, Haymarket, and I'm turning it into a baby sweater pattern/sample piece in aid of my Snip 'n' Zip (Steeks and Zippers) class.Ĭannot say enough things about this yarn.
Old boyfriends reading this will be reminded of the last two hours of any given date with me. I rushed, with half my attention on old episodes of Absolutely Fabulous, glancing back at the remainder on the lazy kate every few minutes and thinking, "Dang it, are you still here?" I tried and failed to welcome an unforeseen opportunity to brush up an old skill. I am the first to confess that this is, to put it mildly, an indifferent job of chain plying. I needed the bobbin, so I pressed pause on the green merino (a sheep who travels around the world preventing ecological disasters?) and decided to chain ply whatever it is just to get rid of it. And, with apologies to my Icelandic friends, I don't believe in elves. Either I spun a bobbin and completely forgot about it or elves have been at work. Yet there it was, filled with worsted spun.something.

The green merino (that sounds like a niche-market superhero, doesn't it?) is on hold anyhow, because after filling two bobbins I went in search of a third only to discover it was already full of something. However, I probably should show you the fiber, shouldn't it? There have been no pictures, because as any Tour de Fleece rider will tell you, pictures of gradually filling bobbins are of only moderate interest to the spinner and hold no thrills for the general public. I've been spinning long draw still–not because I think it's necessarily the best way to spin this fiber, but because I am enjoying the sheer hell out of it. The lucky thing for me is that the roving is already divided into three equal pieces–and my next challenge is to make my first three-ply. For all I know, it was already in the tub when I bought it.
After the Corriedale was finished, I dove into the two almost-forgotten tubs of unspun fiber and came up with a bag of green-and-brown roving made from what must be superwash merino, because the little slip in the bag says "100% superwash merino." I have no idea who made it or where it came from. The Tour de Fleece continues, and to my great surprise I've managed so far to meet the challenge of doing something spinning-related every day. It's a good week when I look at current projects and there's been some progress on most of them.
