Knitting A Skirt Using Scrap Yarn

Mar 21, 2014 14:15

For something completely different, I just posted a knitting pattern for a skirt that I made on Tumblr. Thought I'd share, because a) it's a very pretty skirt indeed and I'm very proud of my freestyle knitting :p and b) maybe one of you will have use for it, too.

The Tumblr post is here, featuring bigger pictures.

Hmmm, so other hobbies...I can see them fixing up Haymitch's house together. Like, they do some painting or something, fix furniture, etc. which looks even weirder to the district. Haymitch is in charge of the colors. I also wonder if Finnick might be into carving, stuff that he can do with his hands.

I remember Haymitch saying that he liked playing darts. I can totally see them doing that. Haymitch also helps Finnick perfect his knife throwing, because now that he's teaching games school Finnick would obsessively practice stuff like that. I can totally see them playing chess together. They are both smart and into strategy in different ways. Haymitch, with his gift for out-of-the-box thinking, wins a bit more often, but Finnick gives him a run for his money. Then there are other board games like backgammon, and maybe cards. Finnick has a flawless poker face. :)

I really loved your ficlet about their reading habits, I loved Finnick's present.:) I totally think that Haymitch would be into nonfiction (which is a very typical guy thing to be into), he's very practical and doesn't like fanciful stuff. And I think that Finnick would love sci-fi, if he can find it, as it has absolutely nothing to do with his RL. Anyway, I will continue this later, I need to go. Oh, BTW, I am so glad your speech went well. :)

Finnick could totally get into carving, if it would ever occur to him to do so.

Finnick would totally learn knife throwing, using Games school as an excuse. :D He'd probably surpass Haymitch in skill very quickly because Haymitch doesn't see the point in improving, but he'd just snort if Finnick acted abashed about it. ;)

Believe it or not, I don't do board games 'cause trigger reactions, so that's gonna be a firm no from me on that front. Heh.

They could play strip poker. I can totally see that happening. Haymitch would have the better poker face, any day. :D
