rambling

Geez it's grey outside. A bit of a downer after the gorgeous sun we had yesterday afternoon. Actually, yesterday's weather was a little schizophrenic - we started out with a bit of sun, around 9:30 it started pouring but stopped fairly quickly, and then eventually it cleared up to almost totally clear skies

Heyya =) Your friending message just came across... no clue where you found me (Ravelry?) since I haven't posted to a BPAL comm in ages, but it looks like we have a fair amount in common. Please tell me if we're in TS together on Draenor and I just don't know it... I've been mainlining a new fandom lately and only log on to do my JC daily for the token.

I've been really lax about my stained glass over the past couple years, but I'd promised myself I could spend money on a basic lampworking setup when I finished a series of panels that currently has, uh, 3 pieces cut, and 3 of 4 patterns not yet drawn. So it's neat to hear you talk about it, and maybe I can pick stuff up by osmosis. Do you ever make beads with stitch markers in mind?

Hey there! You beat me to it, I was going to leave you a comment to say hi later today when I'm not so busy at work

I'm just starting my first lace shawl that can use stitch markers (let's not talk about Heere Be Dragone), so I don't have a feel yet for how many that takes. I make a lot of socks, so I usually buy stitch markers in pairs or fours. I wouldn't be opposed to a set that contained more than that though, if they're pretty. =)

What pattern are you working on? I'm working on the Swan Lake Stole (http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/swan-lake---mystery-stole-3), I've finished just under a page's worth but I need to frog and restart as it's been ages and my cat got into it and tangled the yarn and stuff.

Once I get going on my store, I may have some freebie stuff to send out for people to tell me how they like it and give me some reviews, so I'll keep you in mind. :)
