hip rubble

That title sounds like some disease you don’t want, like shingles or rickets, doesn’t it? It’s my house really. Three-quarters of the rooms are halfway done, and although I am used to the chaos, sometimes it just gets to me (usually at 4:30 on a Sunday). Sometimes however, I embrace it. It gives me so many Anthropologie-like backdrops! Someone pointed it out in the comments of this photo, and it’s true, and I’ve known it, but not really used it. Too bad! We had some great exposed lathe for about a year.

So first, here’s my newly completed chevron scarf with photos taken macro-style on a white background in softly filtered daylight.

Here’s my scarf on me (requisite wrap around the head shot like the model in the book) standing in my kitchen. Fierce, no? If I had done the Anthro makeup right, I would have looked like my mom in the 70s or like my grandmother in the 1940s, but I didn’t do it at all.

I won’t quit my day job.

The scarf was started last Feb-ish. I used these two koigus.

This scarf kinda makes me want to take up knitting, but my schedule so can’t afford that right now. I love it!
