Now You See It, Now You Don't.

Chameleon Circuit.

Well, here it is. Actually, I lied--the pattern became available yesterday.

One of the most frustrating things about working with illusion patterns is that they can be really hard to photograph.

I whipped up this TARDIS chart over the weekend, and made it available through Ravelry (you can also download it here and read all of the pattern details). It's free, and is intended to be worked into existing patterns as an embellishment of sorts--hats, socks, scarves, etc, rather than as a stand alone. I want to work on a larger, more detailed version, but that will have to wait a little. Too many projects to get off of the needles before work on the book begins in earnest!

Bullet Points

1. I'm taking a page from Crazy Aunt Purl and doing this list style, because I'm too scatter brained for anything coherent.

2. Vanyel is the new love of my life. I'm working on a three ply right now, and have fiber on five of my six bobbins.

3. My show will officially open in one week, three days, and seventeen hours.

4. My white matter is making a lovely catered BBQ out of my gray matter thanks to #3.

5. Because of #3, everything that doesn't need to be done NOW has been put on hiatus, including the other blog.

6. I had a mental break down on Tuesday. I literally sat in my studio and cried for four hours straight. I am that stressed out.

7. If any of you are going to Santa Clara, CA for Baycon in May, could one of you send me Mercedes Lackey's autograph? I would love you forever. And give you yarn. Hand dyed yarn spun on Vanyel. Cookies?
