Gorgeous work...thank you so much for posting!
Your shawl is amazing! Love what you did with the edging. It really pops! And of course the cat hat is absolutely delightful...not that I'm a cat fan or anything. What a great idea to use an existing pattern and stitch a cat motif instead!
After making so many beautiful things, you definitely need a gift for yourself. It seems a lot of stitchers forget and only make gifts, then realize too late they never made anything for themselves (can you tell that's happened more than once here, sigh?). Good for you...enjoy your lovely shawl!
Peggy,
Hope you've been able to successfully crop your image!
Although I don't personally use them, the programs I mentioned are very impressive with all of the options they offer...I really should try them, too, but am very comfortable using that ancient program, sigh. Anyway, best of all, you can't beat the price for either one!
Feel free to take advantage of our introductory prices...we want to keep them low so they're affordable; we love the idea that they can help you do what you're trying to accomplish!
Line,
Oh, no, hon, I'm so sorry. It's hard to be dealing with relationship issues when you're going to school!
If there's any way I can help, please let me know.
How are the kids taking the change? I hope they're dealing with it very well. Did the holidays go okay? Hoping it all was good.
I can see why you've been distracted, but you're also very smart, so see what happens...you may surprise yourself!
That was definitely a great idea to use the Christmas break to write your paper. At least you got it done! I'm sure the people who leave things for the last minute are probably panicking!
Awww, the pup must be having a great time with all of the cold! And I'm sure both girls love everything about it!
Ugh, that's a horrible wind chill! -40 for you guys is -40 for us, too. We don't tend to get it that low here for the most part, but there have been times when it's been bitter, bitter cold like that, particularly as a wind chill. Usually it happens at night, after a long day of cold, and sometimes on very windy days. Yuck! Our neighbors are talking about moving...well, maybe that's not a half-bad idea! LOL, kidding.
Ooh, I love the way you're using that snap for the pom pom, you genius! That will be so nice...even better...you can change the look! Perhaps you can put a different colored pom pom on it or some other cute crocheted piece. Now that's something I would do. I had started to do the same type of thing (but not with a snap) at one point with a certain pair of earrings, to use other pieces on them or wear them plain...unfortunately, I got distracted and it became a UFO.
I can't wait to see pics when you're all done with the hat!
I've been thinking of crocheting or knitting a hat at some point, too. I have a favorite hat, found another one just like it (I'd misplaced it and bought a second one), and then I carry a hat around with me in a bag, for when I forget a hat! I went out tonight, and rather than going upstairs to get the hat I usually wear, I popped the one out of the bag and wore it. But it can sometimes fall off because it doesn't really hold well. So I want to make another hat...well, you know, sigh...time, argh!
Please do keep in touch, and I mean it about letting me know if you need help!
Is there a way to show you pictures of my new kitty casita?

Marie,
Welcome!
I don't know
which sellers online sell all Miyuki colors...the ones I know of
sell only some colors. This doesn't mean nobody has the
comprehensive catalog, it's only that I don't know in particular
who sells all colors.
I apologize that my
answer is extremely unhelpful. Should you find a retailer who does
carry the entire catalog, can you please let us know? I'll keep
looking, but am not sure how to find one. In my searches now and in
the past I've tried specifically to find retailers who carry the
entire line, but that proved to be fruitless. A search only brings up retailers who
sell Miyuki, but not the entire catalog.
It
would sure be helpful to find a retailer with a complete Miyuki
line! (I've also had the same bad experience with Toho; there have
been some beads I simply couldn't locate because I never found
anyone who sold the entire line of those, either.)
Gorgeous work...thank you so much for posting!
