This morning is Day 7 to hook on the Rooster Pair ~ how do like those purple feet? I like them a lot!! Every rug should have some purple in it!! I hooked while I watched the re-cap of THE WEDDING! At 4 a.m., I bounded out of bed to the sound of my phone alarm! I was really tired ~ we went out for a bite to eat last night and ended up stopping at The Happy Grape (that's our town's new wine bar) for a nightcap and found some friends ~ some old ones and some new ones!! It was fun, of course!! And so was the wedding ~ a wonderful respite from all the doldrums of life ~ every country should have a prince and princess or duke and duchess, as Will and Kate will be called now ~ it's uplifting!
This is the overall picture of how far I've gotten ~ it looks yellow ~ I don't like that ~ but in order to get it light enough for the colors to show, it goes yellow in the re-setting. If you click on the photo, it will be enlarged and you can click again and see it really close up! It's quite sparkly!! I might add that this rug is 29 x 50 ~ it's going to be a sparkly whopper of a rug!!
I've left that rooster's tail for last because the left tail is so beautiful and I don't want to do the very same thing on the right one ~ I keep thinking my wools will inspire me so that it holds it's own when finished!! Sometimes I think too much, me thinks!!
Yesterday, I spent another hour and a half at the dentist ~ getting this blessed tooth ready for it's permanent crown. In three weeks, it will be ready to be applied for good! In the meantime, I will be very cautious!!
Have a good weekend ~ hopefully, the weather has calmed down across the country and we can look forward to some beautiful Spring temperatures and flowers ~ but I think it is going to be more like Spring showers!! Oh, well ~ rejoice in what we have! Ta ta for now!
