Louisbourg Day 3

We had a rainy afternoon, so we packed up early and headed indoors to the lab to process some artifacts found on a previous dig.  Here are some pictures:

Nice clean artifacts.  We label these with the provenience, for future reference.  They actually do put these pieces together like a puzzle.

One of those days…

Today was one of those days when you need to sit by the phone waiting for news.  Good or bad.  So I decided to do this waiting, outside, knitting with friends.

  
I’m really very pleased with how my Wirbel Shawl is coming along.  The colorway is amazing.  

Night blog friends!

Miss Fix-it

I got out my sewing machine, it’s been very neglected, for a very long time…

  
To fix this sleeve…

  
Now I’m inspired…I don’t have a stash of fabric like I do yarn so I may try to pick up some lacy cloth to remake some of my t-shirts into this…

  
How about these great ideas…

   
   

I love the old sweaters turned into mitts.  I have some thinking to do!!
