Trey
I’ve been feeling just the tiniest bit antsy. I think I have everything all lined up for the start of the preorder (Tuesday…with details coming Monday in case you like to study for the test ahead of time). I’ve made plans, I’ve made lists, I’ve done my homework, and I’ve done this sort of thing before. But despite this, I can’t sit still or relax.
So I decided to do something to distract myself. I wrote up the (shatteringly simple…really there’s nothing to this) pattern for the cuff I showed you the other day. The ‘remind me how much I like knitting’ cuff. And then I tossed it up on ravelry (it’s free, because really it’s that simple). So if you have 20-some yards of super bulky yarn sitting around, a few spare buttons, and an hour or so of time, you can distract yourself too.
The pattern is called Trey, and it’s over here.
Trey means a thing that has three of something (like a die with three dots or a card with three pips). It seemed especially appropriate since this has spots for three awesome buttons and since I’m using it to distract me from the launch of the third book in the KCC series.
So, if you want it, it’s yours. And apparently, Kitten Overlord Douglas does want it, because the moment I put it down on my desk he clambered right on, tucked up into company loaf, and purred himself to sleep. Silly kitten.
Great! Yes, I want it, and so happy you are making it available. Thank you.
Hunter,
Douglas is the picture of self confidence…handsome as ever and thinking (rightly so) how nicely the knitting shows of his great looks!
CAH
Thank you, Hunter. I’ll make 38 of those.
I suggest conscious breathing. It totally changes your mood and perception. Just watch your breath flowing in and out of your nostrils for a few minutes. And just in your mind say Trey, Trey, Trey……. :):):):)
Much love and joy to you, my friend!
I went to a yarn tasting last night and came home with about a dozen little samples of various weights of yarn. At least a few of them are now destined to be Trey cuffs!
I had a cat with similar colouring years ago. Her name was Leah. Your photos remind me of her and how delightful she was.
Why do we have to wait until Tuesday? I want to download NOW!
Thank goodness you have Douglas around if you need anyone to hold down the fort. : )
Lord Douglas is trés beautiful.
