Follow the green strand of yarn

I have a daily craft blog that I write in the most if you are craving some current stuff.

Red Loom Hat

Yesterday I finished my red loom hat that I started for the tutorial. It's 16" in diameter, making it too big for a baby and too small for a child, so I'm hoping it will fit a toddler. But seeing how I don't have any toddlers to try it on, I'm a little hazy.

I just signed up for Tagfoot. http://ping.fm/lfV6m Come see all my links and comments and my wishlist.

Using a Knifty Knitter Loom tutorial (how-to) Circular Tubular Knitting

I'm learning to make tutorials with my very lame video camera. It's decided to only shoot 4:15 at a time, even though it's supposed to shoot 30. So it was a real challenge getting it together.

First you shoot the footage. Then the movie program breaks even the littlest bit into 4 or 5 bits. Then you have to string them all together, add titles and so on, then you have to re-save it as a whole movie on your computer. Then you have to convert it to yet another format that you can upload to Youtube. Then you put it on Youtube, wait and pray that it won't get rejected because it's too long or whatever reason. So even the simplest little video takes so much time. And I haven't even tried to add music yet.

I'm not sure what 'ping my default' means but I guess I'll find out when I hit send.

The week sure went by quick. I had a lot more planned but didn't have the energy to do it. My hands are still sore from woodcarving, and so I've had to lay off the knitting and crocheting. I'm looking forward to the weekend. My daughter may visit. We'll see.
