all this to share three pictures
Mayflower Baby Blanket

Finished the baby blanket I've been working on for the last few months. I decided to do it in Pound of Love rather than the more expensive Caron Spa the pattern called for, and ended up using more than one pound. About six ounces more, according to my kitchen scale. I quite like the outcome, though I can see that it might have been better to use something even closer to the gauge used in designing the pattern.
Also, fuck Yahoo, Flickr, and Facebook up their collective asses for making me allow sharing of my friends' information just to share three fucking pictures. And for not allowing me to manually retrieve pictures I'd already uploaded before being notified that I had to have all this overshare in place before uploading them for the "easy automatic updates" to work. Posting here is an experiment to see if LJ will ask to crosspost to FB. I have no idea how this post will actually look, aside from the knowledge that it won't show up flocked.
I so did not need a half-hour of oversocial runaround. If I didn't have valuable conversations on FB I'd delete it out of spite right now.
ETA: It didn't ask. Thus making my connection to Flickr useless for the intended purpose. At least the HTML is minimally cluttered.
