I'm making slow but steady progress on the bamboo project. I finally got the reed threaded. Now it's just a matter of tying on to the front and starting to weave! With any luck at all I'll be posting the finished product next week.

I also blocked the thread doily, and it was not horrible, although I really, REALLY need a proper blocking board. This towel stuff is for the birds. I got brave and lightly spritzed it with starch, and I have to say, it's quite lovely now and stays in its proper shape. Now if I could only find a flat surface in my apartment that isn't covered in crap...

| Now that I'm feeling brave I will also block the thread runner. |
And finally, I started a Super Secret project yesterday. It's done in tunisian crochet, which I continue to really like. I also learned how to increase and decrease in tunisian, so that's a huge plus.

| I can't say what it is, and probably won't post the finished product until after the holidays. I am loving my DIY tunisian crochet hook as well. |

I do love the thread doily, though I must say, after the very pretty fans, the loose outside layer seems extraneous to me. I am having no luck starting new projects, in between stressing about moving, trying to find crap I've already lost in the storage unit, etc. etc. Sigh.....Christmas in February? Renting a U-haul on the 5th, flying to Wrangell the 7-9, and leaving for the Philippines on the 14th. November is going to be so much fun.......
