Zen and the art of clutter maintenance

[termagent]

I was really surprised to find that if you put 2 cuts on LJ you can see both if you open one, so I'm only going to put a single cut from now on. The one below contains:

-A photo of our celtic knotwork dining room table and a ramble about its genesis from clutter and built-in obsolescence

-Another Extermiknit dalek (pattern and copyright by penwiper <

That table is gorgeous!

Well done :)

Table looks great. Goes without saying that the Dalek is cool too.

The table rocks!

The table is great, and you must put the dalek in the Swancon art show next year.

There are several reasons I can't do that:
-Current owner is 4 and just wouldn't understand if I borrowed it back
-A Swancon one would just have to be lavender and black (because of Emma's allergy to lavender oil itself and her long-standing association with the art show - otherwise it could just be stuffed with dried lavender)
-But really because I was only following a pattern, the artistic and intellectual property belongs to the designer. I really think it deserves a design award, as it is quite ingenious and has personally altered my whole approach to knitting and opened up a whole world of incredibly clever techniques.

Awesome! That looks Fab! And I like the idea of reuse-recycle rather than just upgrading.
