me too,me too,me too.

t'is the season to be knitting so everyone seems to be furiously knitting.and everyone seems to be so adept at it no running stitches, no knitting dropped on the floor no misbehaving yarns.

all you see is success stories, pretty frustrating until you realize everyone keeps their miseries to themselves.

following the pattern here's my sheer cashmere cowl, dark navy because it's gentler on the face features than stark black. unless you're either japanese or don't care, which evidently none of those are happening here.vanity still lives here.

as a side note notice hokusai's  big wave of kanagawa on the wall.

two weeks

lichen windfalls in water-ammonia solution slowly  giving out color. still have more for another batch this one with bottled water. still haven't measured the ph of water here ಠ ಠ. i need a personal assistant that will take care of all the innumerable little bs.

the xmas cake extravaganza is over. in the middle of the production the hand beater gave in and we had to dash out and buy a new one. luckily the liquids had not yet been added to the solids so it was salvaged. i was so frazzled that forgot to add the spices so we'll see if it tastes of something (╯︵╰,)

will compensate by adding extra brandy to cure the cake.

still in awe of how i could set up production in my tiny kitchen in bcn.
