fun stuff: blue blue blue

he who works with his hands
is a laborer.

he who works with his hands
and his head is a
craftsman.

he who works with his hands
and his head and his
heart is an artist.

here is my scrap blue blanket.
it is slowly growing.
did you know that if you combine strands of royal blue, navy blue and black that you get a feel of indigo in the combination?

i'm still (yes...still) reading john lanchester's capital.  only a few more chapters to go and then i'm done with the monster.

twyla tharp's the creative habit is brilliant.  YOU MUST READ IT !!


what are you knitting? reading?
care to share?
