Folly, Not Prudence

It was Very Wrong of me to tell you I was shocked and appalled when I wasn't, really, and I repent me of it. No, not shocked and appalled -- pretty darn amused, though. Droves of readers I had, advising Folly. A few voices in the wilderness, advising Prudence.

Went with Folly:



Do enjoy Folly. Do love Folly.

I notice, now that I'm knitting up yet another Mindless Bit O'Fluff, this time in Trendsetter "Dune," that it's not actually red, as I had imagined, looking at it in the ball. No, it's red and some other stuff -- green, apparently. I like it. It's bright. It's cheerful. It's fluffy. And shiny.

And for those of you concerned about the fate of "Queen Anne's Lace" -- do not fret. I'll get back to it. I have a pretty good success rate of finishing projects up. In fact, I think I'll post regular pictures of it, as it iinches along, 5 rows at a time. As a sort of cyber monument to Occasional Prudence.

There's breaking important news, however -- if you click on over to Thrednedle Strete you can observe, finally, after a couple of failed attempts, the successful creation of Elizabethan Starch. Here's the Experiment page, if you want to go directly there. Be sure to click through the three pages or so of the experiment. Mold appears part way through -- you don't want to miss that, I'm sure.
