I haven’t posted in a while because my brain has been frozen.  For the past few weeks, I have been debating whether to by a Mac laptop and this is all that I’ve been able to think about.  Do I really have to spend $1,500.00 to be able to edit videos and maybe do a few other “things.”<\/p>\n

Well, I caved in last week and bought a Mac book pro……so currently we have in our family – not all in the house – 4 Macs, 4 PCs and 3 PCs at Infiknit and I haven’t counted and old PC laptop that my son gave to his girlfriend when he got his Mac – really we maybe single-handedly keeping the computer industry going!!!<\/p>\n

However, this lapsed blogging hasn’t all been about computers, I have been designing and knitting a scarf, based on a triangular shawl that I created a few years ago.  I am hoping to use this scarf in a Knit-A-Long on my Queen Anne’s Lace Knitting page on Facebook and a few other pages – so I decided to knit it first, before I took videos of the process for the knit a long….maybe not a bad idea, although it has taken some time and I haven’t even done the videos yet, let alone edit them.<\/p>\n

But I’m getting back on track.  I did do one exercise for my photography group – Take pictures of an item from as many different angles as you can.  I found a plastic icicle that didn’t make into the Xmas decorations box a few weeks ago and took some pictures of it.<\/p>\n

\n<\/a><\/div>\n

\nHere it is.  I thought that it had some interesting contours and maybe one could create a pretty scarf from it – later, much later…<\/p>\n

\n<\/a><\/div>\n

\nAnd here is the real thing.  There’s been a dearth of icicles in this mild winter, so I had to really look for them.  In other years there’s been gorgeous clusters of shiny frozen water drops, many of which suggested  scarves with lacey “things” hanging from them……..soon, maybe.  <\/p>\n

Have a stunning day!!!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
