Dishes are washed, and I even washed the silverware! I now have some recycling soaking in the dishpan, and towels going in the washing machine. #Adulting! Yay!
Gonna work on clearing the floor in my bedroom, so I can finally finish sanding the floor and sheetrock. Still hoping to paint today. 🤞🏻

Got home from Costco and found this little silly-billy at the top of my cement stair case. Thankfully, still alive! Silly little #WoolyBearCaterpillar-- there's no food for you on my steps! Used a garden trowel to move them onto what little grass is left in my yard, and they perked up immediately. ☺️

'Bout time they commercialized another religion. Maybe we will have retail stores adding popular #Hanukkah songs into rotation, as well? Very nice selection of Hanukkah items at Target. 5 bays, counting the end cap.
I'm honestly both happy for #Jewish people & yet also apologetic. So, yayI'msorry?

This Halloween, I'm not doing anything scary. Or am I?
I have concluded that using an S-curve loom for my #AIinspired #LoomKnitted #Dress is not going to work. Because the pegs do not stay lined up around the curves sufficiently for the figure-8 stitch.
So. I found these at Michaels.

Well, since it's been over eight hours, and it's not completely set yet (as evidenced by the darker spots), I think it's safe to say I used too much compound when I did the joints in the drywall. 😅
In my defense, I've never had to do a corner before. ☝🏻

Okay. I am 7.8 hours into the process of making the central cording for this #AIinspired #SweaterDress #LoomKnotting project, and I have 9'8" to show for it. Not bad!
I am now concerned the cording is too wide, and am seriously considering making two more, using both sizes on my #FrenchKnitter.

Bah. Guess I continue focusing on the cord for the central design. Speaking of, I made a cot of progress during class Monday! It's now longer than six feet! Luckily, my teacher doesn't seem to mind my knitting during class, so long as I'm paying attention and add to the discussion. 😊

Hmm. Looks like my #BoardLoom set is buried in the pile in my closet. Until I'm done with my bedroom floor, the only one I have access to is the S-curve. And I have to use the board looms, since I'm #LoomKnitting this #dress, as that's definitely the figure-8 stitch in the original image. 🤔

Okay! I think I've figured out the central #Scandinavian #knotwork for my #AIinspired #knitted #SweaterDress! I wanted to use #Yggdrasil for the entirety, but the image does have a heart on the chest area, so I'm using a pattern for Yggdrasil's roots, instead. One continuous cord, no breaks--check!

All right! The fabric liner and zipper for my #AIinspired #SweaterDress #knitting project has arrived! All ordered from Michaels, and I have to laugh.
#Fabric A came in a plastic mailer, as did Fabric B (which is the one I'll be using).
The #zipper? A 6" x 10" x 10" square box. Yes, really! 😂

As a side note, I've ordered this little circle knitter from eBay. From my count, it has 20 pegs. I'm interested in seeing if it can knit using every other peg. I'm guessing no, but if it can then I'll be pleasantly surprised and this process will go faster.

Okay, I'm about 2.75 total hours in, and my central cording for the knot work is 46"/115cm long. I'm guessing I've used maybe 1/6 of the skein? There's a nice hole in the center, now, anyway. I'm wondering if the central design will use more than one skein.

It starts. I must be out of my mind, trying to make an AI-created sweater dress a reality. 😅 But, we'll see how this goes!
Thus far, finding the yarn turned out to be the hardest part. I wanted to use a 5 or 6 for the weight, but the ones I had access to didn't have the dark brown. So #4 it is!

Gonna vacuum this all out (carefully! I don't want to harm the wires behind here), and put her back together.
Side note: magnetic trays allow you to make random abstract art with screws! 😁

Yeah, I'd say this is a problem! Lots of lint where it's not supposed to be.
First picture shows lint around the fan blades, middle picture is lint in the duct chute, third picture is lint and what looks like sawdust around the screen that pulls the lint out of the dryer in the first place.

Having finished up at the State Fair, we're now at Firehouse Grille in New Market, Minnesota! I ordered a grasshopper to drink--never tried one. Tasty! Also, I got carded! 😂

Past me didn't do the sheetrock joints very cleanly (pattern of the joint tape was visible, and there were dips, as well), but at the time I was in "I just want to be done with this" mode, so. 🤷🏼♀️ Gonna have a lot of sanding, but hopefully it'll be worth it (yes, I still have the paint). ☺️

Today's project: making some garden boxes out of old 4" x 4" redwood posts from the deck, 2 x 4 studs, and some scrap pieces of Trex deck boards.
Can't find the saws all and these are too big for the jog saw, so cutting by hand. The fun begins!

Happy to say this worked! Shrink molds are happening, and if I'm lucky, I'll be able to have these down to earring size before I need to leave for Pony Friends Forever! 😃❤️

This nice things about the current rain storm? Not only ti we need the rain, but the thunder is refreshing to hear, lightning has been a lot of cloud-to-cloud, and we have a nice, gray sky with no green in sight. ⛈️🚫🌪️
I'll probably have a wet basement when I get home, but I don't care! 😊❤️

Coworker is out of the hospital! Some kid stole a Kia and went speeding. Better hitting my friend's minivan than the two women with the baby stroller on his other side, but annoying that the kid ran off, apparently uninjured.
Meanwhile, meet Miss Coco Channel and Peanut!
