Two things happened this weekend that illustrate to me how this project, and keeping this blog, have changed me. So, without further ado, I have illustrated them for you (inspired by Amber Dusick who has
shown me that Crappy illustrations can actually be rather wonderful and has also made me laugh out loud a number of times )
The events were:
1. We finished a box of cereal
2. Z1 said she would like a rainbow-coloured, non-itchy scarf after we passed a yarn shop with its fence all wrapped in soft and colourful yarn (
The shop was Lettuce Knit which is online here but in Toronto in real life )
So there you have it, blogging changes your life and recycling habits.
SHOCKING UPDATE: On the very day I published this post, we finished another box of cereal and I went to put the empty box with the previous one but my beloved husband had thrown it out. The horror!
That first scarf doesn't look too bad - my proper unplanned one would have no green - because I started on the blue and didn't want to unravel everything.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I actually contemplated making the first scarf look messier as I agree that it looks quite nice...but then I don't tend to be very critical of my own crafts (as mentioned elsewhere!). I think I once unravelled a scarf as it was too wide..or too narrow..and I was very proud of my commitment to getting it right!
DeleteThis is so true! The joy of cereal boxes :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you agree! I have now graduated to the joy of egg cartons - watch this space!
