I've had this idea rattling around in my head that I would knit a scarf or throw in the way of Kente style, the traditional woven fabric from Ghana. Here is some Kente cloth:
It could be kind of interesting, what with knitting's additional ability to vary texture, to see that kind of color work interpreted in knitting. I guess I have some other things to finish up first.
Speaking of that, I knit a bunch on baby Hannah's pants, as I posted yesterday. I went way into the 2nd leg and (crap) discovered I had started my rounds in an incorrect place so the decreases showed a real strange catty-wompus inseam relative to the right leg. I decided that was a good time to go to bed. I ripped it out today and am ready to tackle it again. I need to have another FO (finished object) for my self esteem.
On a difficult note, Roscoe, my HBC cat (hit by a car), is having some kind of plumbing problem. He's having trouble peeing and he's even squatting in the chicken food and staring at me to get my attention.
Sorry Roscoe. Guess I'd best get him to the vet.
