a finished item

Filed under: knitting

so we got this fancy new computer because our old one finally crapped out.  like won’t-turn-on-without-nearly-exploding crapped out.  so the new one is all fancy and high tech and junk, but apparently none of the picture-getting technologies we used before will work with this new one (scanner and webcam), which means either i just take no pictures until i can buy a decent camera, or i can bootleg webcam pics by telling the one program that the webcam is actually a scanner, because it won’t believe the webcam is a webcam.  so i took the second route and got a lame-o pic of the doily i made last week.

yes, i knit a doily

the pattern is lille rund serviet and i used size 10 crochet cotton.  it’s wee small… like only 7" across, but for a first ever knit doily, i think it’s pretty good.  i’ll try to remember to take a pic once its done blocking, because i’m a super genious and thought it smart to photograph a white doily while its blocking on top of a white paper plate.  yay me!  it’s on the paper plate because i’m bad with circles (like "get that kid some help" bad) so i got frustrated and put the plate under the doily then put the pins in around the edge of the plate.  i did remember to get a pic.  double yay me!

so that’s my creation for the day (er… week… month… whatever)
