Mad Scientist
Being alone in a carvernous studio day after day, mixing and toiling over bubbling stews can bring a person to the point of madness. It may look bright and sunny in this studio, but Dr. Mellser has not seen the light of day for one hundred years. The glint of satisified insanity shines from deep within.
So, much work is getting done. Stuff is all over the place, it feels good.
At night, when I am not writing, I have been knitting, something I have told myself I can't do. A few years back I got angry at my inability to obtain proper gauge. But then, I got myself up and running on socks before making many scarves or hats, before loosening up, and trying to understand gauge.
I am making Dashing, a free knitty pattern. To really solify the the addictiveness of the whole deal, I am now a member of Ravelry.
The addictiveness is partially why I stopped knitting in the first place. It isn't like I don't have enough creative projects to do.

Posted by: Jeannie at January 15, 2008 03:39 PMMy... we are getting a little crazy looking, there Miss Mellie! Well, as long as you're having fun while you're at it! As for knitting, that's enough to make anyone crazy!
Love ya,
Judy
Hoho, what a great photo Dr. Mellser. Who did you get to take the photo if you are truly alone in that cavernous studio?
