I think I've come across artfire before (either you or smor sent me the link, I think, or someone else entirely!). So far I haven't looked into selling anything seriously because it seems like too much work at the moment. Ebay as tough enough when I tried to sell stuff there and hardly got rid of anything.

I've been admiring it since you put it there. Who did you have to tie up in your shed to make this piece of art? :D

Yes, I've been waiting for an explanation--and I have to scroll quickly past your posts when I'm checking this site while in a church meeting. :D

Really :Q
Sorry. Perhaps I should change it? I did pose some flowers strategically.
:D

I think you should change your sig more frequently in order to show off more of your bonsai and sculptures!

EasyJet doesn't allow knitting needles on the plane. :rage:

Yeah, I also checked about knitting on planes before I flew to England last time and found that you better leave your needles with the luggage in the hold. :roll:

I finished my new striped socks now and only have to weave in the ends before I can wear them tomorrow I will take some proper pics in the morning when the light is better than here. They look much better on my feet. :D

Did you only use Noro wool? They remind me of the popular Noro stripped scarf!

Just out of curiousity, do you know if Get Knitted will get colours they aren't currently carrying if you ask? I notice they don't carry the full range of Noro's colourways and of course, I want two of them.

They'll probably order it for you, I'm quite sure. Shouldn't be a problem.

I've used three yarns for the socks. A red sock yarn, with Noro, and a blue sock yarn striped with the same Noro as before. Each sock therefore consists of two different yarns, which is why one is mainly red and the other mainly blue.

edit:
Decided to remove this video until I can figure out a way to host it.
YouTube, Photobucket and the rest of the hosting sites won't allow the music track.

All right, holby, I do want to watch it, but I don't have time right now. I'll plan on watching it tonight. What software did you use to make the movie?


ETA: Ack, you removed it!

I'm helping him find a way to host it or edit it so youtube will allow it. :) I'm sure he'll put it back sometime soon.

Well I will be happy to send a link to the video if anyone wants to bother to download it.
I just figured it was a big pain to have to download it before watching and people wouldn't bother.

Actually I'll repost the link, but just be prepared for a long download from an annoying site.
