hpkchc update

i have not been around the cup much. in fact, the note i got from my head of house wondering "where are you?"-- i just opened it up tonight and she sent it 2 weeks ago. not sure why the cup was not grabbing my attention like it did the first time around, but the last two weeks? well, they went down the toilet due to the re-org at work.

however, i am working on something now. it is for divination.
can you guess what it is going to be? :D

........

i did not finish the "shiny gold galleons" scarf i was struggling with last month. i used that ribbon i showed you and it did crochet up easy enough, but the sheen pretty much disappeared in the process.


plus...i was running out fast and it was not cheap.

so, i turned to gold cord.


ugh. true, it is shiny as can be, but it is stiff and cruddy for making circles. in the end, i tried just straight chains and intended to coil them up and sew them into flat shiny coins. it looked okay enough...but then time ran out. i threw out all my efforts.

as to crocheting with gold cord?
no.
just no.
