ok, so here's a photo of yesterday's 'project.' it was meant to be a rainbow sherbet ice cream cone. i have no sense of whether it was successful or not. the chickens, however, were a hit. a fellow knitter had them moved to the back of the store so they could keep us company as we worked. my friend was knitting sea shells. it was an odd coincidence as i had been reading about sea shells in the 3 dimensional embroidery book i bought in preparation for a course i will be taking in june.
i think the ice cream cone is a little floppy. it might have been better to knit the cone on smaller needles so the tension would have been tighter like the sherbet. in any case, it's done and now i can go back to finishing scarf and completing the chicken coop
i also took some nice photos at the beach yesterday. we actually managed to walk at the shoreline with the dog, but were eventually shooed away by a lone lifeguard.
here are a couple of pictures, one taken with the hipstamatic, which just makes everything look cool.
