Caron Cakes

Michaels had Caron Cakes for sale online, but only in bags of three.  For some reason, this yarn is very hard to find.  I bought a few.

Topped

I have the top edge done, yay!  Now to work farther down as I get it all squared off.

Cappuccino On A Boat

Sooo.... what do you do when you're dead tired and your feet hurt?  You hop on a tour boat to view Frankfurt from the water.  This is the cappuccino I had to wake me up.  They had full meals available, too!

First Warp

I am finally able to warp my loom!  It's all started.  Time for me to thread the heddles next.  It feels good to get some done.  I am going to do a four shaft pattern this time before I experiment more.




Stitched Up

Yay, all the cross stitches are done in this section!  It's time to start with the specialty ones and move on to the next part.

On To The Third

The second leaf is done and the third leaf has little work, so it should be done soon.

Old Town Square, Frankfurt

When we went through here, in early October, there were fewer tourists than I was used to.  It was kind of gray, too, but still pretty.  We'd already walked quite a bit by the time we got here after breakfast and were definitely flagging.
