Summery summary

From Soulemama came this idea to knit a hat,

The Happiest Hat, in the round, in Fair Isle using up oddments.

Not something I've ever done before.

I cast on the requisite number of stitches,

because surely I can count,

and found to my horror,

 several ticklish rounds later, that I was five short.

Never mind I thought. I have made a start.

I will carry on and it will just have to be for a smaller head.

I had just such a one in mind.

From Cornflower came this book recommendation.

I lay down on the grass directly. No rug.

Not something I usually do.

It is that sort of book.

From Laughingkidslearn came all sorts of craft ideas

for entertaining granddaughter last week.

 And from my correspondent in India quite coincidentally, 

came a video demonstrating the art of rangoli

which gives me an idea for all that rainbow rice

now that the grandaughter is on tour again.

A little memento left by my computer.
