One other biggie is a swayback adjustment, and I'm going to have to study up on this, because pinching out an inch from the center back pulls the paper pattern off grain, but in real life, does nothing to affect the hang on my body - perhaps my body made it off grain already? I remember Louise Cutting saying something about not correcting something when doing a swayback, but I can't remember what it was.
In other news, Lucas is all about hacky-sacking, which Drew and his friends do every day after school, so we've had some games around here and needed a new one (little beads going everywhere is not conducive to a clean house for Thanksgiving). I checked Ravelry, and voila - can you tell which one is mine and which one they purchased today at the International Festival?
Yes, I KNOW you can tell, but just because I'm using leftover dishcloth yarn - I could do those fancy stripes if I wanted to!
Drew declared it to look like an onion due to the protuberance at the end, but he didn't seem to mind.
Back to the game!

Can I go with you?! Oh wait, I'm on call. I'd love to see some pictures!
You are so clever! Love your hacky-sack.
Robbie,
Would love to hear about "The Factory".
Well poot. I thought I didn't have to babysit since Ellen doesn't have class next week. I just talked to her and she still has labs, so I still babysit. Maybe in the Spring.
Robbie
Dangit! I see a field trip to go with you in my future....
Absolutely!!!
Robbie
BTW, I finished my rose scarf last night. Pictures to come.

Can't wait!
Cool hacky-sack! I'm thinking stocking stuffers? ;)
Well, see, it knitted up quick, but I stuffed it with another hacky-sack that was leaking. I'd have to get beads or something and put them in a plastic bag or something else to keep them from leaking through the stitches. In other words, NOT a stocking stuffer!
