I'm back.
Yes, I spent a week immersed in the highly addictive Ravelry, enaged in an introspective review of my oversized stash. Even I am slightly horrified to find I have logged 240 different yarn / colour combinations. There's still more to go...
Last weekend was busy and involved a fair amount of travel, so I cast on Argosy in the car. I bought some Rowan Tapestry using my 10% discount voucher while looking for beads for MS3. It's now working as my commuter project, although it's slightly more complicated than is ideal for short distance, interrupted travel. It is growing quite quickly, but the points curl badly, so it's going to need strong blocking.
With one thing and another, I only got to cast on for MS3 last night, so not much to show yet. I'm tethered to a huge cone of yarn, so this is definitely not portable. The beads are so tiny they don't really show up much, but I like them anyway.
Someone in the group suggested using a needle threader if the crochet hook was too large for the bead, and this turned out to be a genius suggestion. There are other good suggestions, but the group is currently generating an insane amount of email - several hundred per day!
