What's Your Temperament?

You Have a Phlegmatic Temperament

Mild mannered and laid back, you take life at a slow pace.
You are very consistent - both in emotions and actions.
You tend to absorb set backs easily. You are cool and collected.

It is difficult to offend you. You can remain composed and unemotional.
You are a great friend and lover. You don't demand much of others.
While you are quiet, you have a subtle wit that your friends know well.

At your worst, you are lazy and unwilling to work at anything.
You often get stuck in a rut, without aspirations or dreams.
You can get too dependent on others, setting yourself up for abandonment.

That pretty much sums me up most of the time....since joining FLYlady I am slowly changing my CHAOS into peace. I should have my Noni Bag finished today! YEAH!!!! I'll post before felted and the finished item hopefully later today.
Until later....Keep on Loomin'

Noni Bag

I am doing "In the Sculptured Garden" Noni Bag (ordered from kpixie.com)which is a triangle bagguette with pretty camilia flowers on the front and back. I picked the colors of black and delphinium (a periwinkle color) in Cascade 220 yarn. I will post pictures of the progress as soon as I can take a picture of it.

Also I have on my small gauge wonderloom a hat done in fair isle knitting...It is a pattern I found for knitting turkish socks that I checked out from the library. I will also post a picture as soon as I get enough done so you can see the pattern.

Until later...loom on!

"Fabulous" Felted Bag

I have on needles right now a turtleneck shell which will probably be modified to a mock turtleneck. I am about 4 inches into it right now and hope to get it done before our County fair in July so I can enter it along with some loom knitted items.

I have another bag in the works and will get it up as soon as I get it out of my head and down on paper along with it knitted out.


Here is the Fabulous felted bag I created using Caron's Fabulous and 100% worsted weight wool . If you are interested in the pattern, it can be purchased by clicking the "Buy Now" button below. Price is $3.00

Bags, Bags Bags

I been making bags, and felting bags which I am totally addicted to. Lynn Markman of Markman Farms (http://groups.yahoo.com/groups/markman_looms) is having a Spring pattern contest and I have been trying to come up with patterns for that in the last couple of weeks. If you belong to the group check out the folder. I have come up with a woven bottom mesh bag and am working on a felted gift bag.
which is almost ready to be felted. I will try and post a picture of it if I can remember.
<--Here is the woven bottom mesh bag.

I will try and get pictures of the other bags I have felted and their results. One cell phone case (lt. blue posted earlier) didn't felt at all, it GREW!! I know not to use that yarn again even though it said it was 100% wool. I made another cell phone holder that I can put on my belt and my very first felting project ever is a tote that didn't quite felt the way I wanted it. I'll post pictures hopefully tonight or tomorrow.

I ordered the new Wonderloom from Decor Accents, Inc. two weeks ago and am trying patiently to wait for it to come. I am looking forward to using a small gauge loom...I have so many ideas floating around in my head I would like to make them a reality one of these days before I forget. (getting older really stinks!)

Until later...loom on!
