Brain Puke XIX

Look out blogger friends, I'mma gonna hurl!

As usual, been knitting things.  Here is a baby cloud pillow for one of my co-workers:



And a shawl for my doctor's receptionist (Miss Nyla's tail included for perspective):


And a scarf for the owner of the nail salon I frequent:


I bought some whimsical items to brighten up my workspace:







My african violet is blooming for the 6th time; I keep her at work:



And Miss Gigi and Miss Oreo are keeping us company this long holiday weekend.

  1. Should we be seeing your pusses on display like this??? I love African Violets. They make me feel happy for some reason.

      this is my first african violet.

      "naked in the pool with the Mistresses infamous houseboys" - well, it's only 58F here at 9:30a and cloudy. and me naked with the houseboyz would make a person hurl!

  2. Oooh, I love the knitting. Everything looks so soft and colorful. I wish I could've learned to do that when my hands worked.
    My late mother-in-law was the only person I knew who could grow African Violets. Every time I see one, I think of her fondly.

    1. 3D but no blacklight. I bought that over 25 years ago when I lived in DC. true today as it ever was.

  5. Where did the 'hurl' happen? - and why? (Never mind. We know you didn't mean to leave the word there).

    Nice, positive pics. Attractive though the shawl, scarf etc are - the happy result of careful hours spent, I'm sure, are - my attention is drawn to two other 'objects'. (No need to 'guess').

  6. You do beautiful work! I want a man-sized baby cloud for myself! We had a couple dozen African violets at one time with grow lights in the basement. I would move them up and downstairs in cycles and I would feed them with seasonal violet foods. So much care. Yours looks better!

  8. You do beautiful work! The African violet reminds me of my grandmother. She had tons of them. She'd always give me one every time I visited, but alas I would always manage to kill it.
