Yes, friends, I am still plugging away on my FMB. I worked on it Monday night for quite a long time, I'm also taking it with me this weekend while I attend a yoga retreat. We should have some downtime :) Afterall, this retreat is about relaxing, doing yoga, opening our hearts and minds.
As to the status of the FMB, I've got just a smidge over 4'' done of the bag body color. I have used up one skein of the pastaza to get there--so I should have just about exactly enough of it, I guess...I may cut it a bit short of the 8" due to limited yarn supply, and the stitches are much bigger--I'm using size 10's. I'm a bit concerned about the felting being a bit uneven on this as I started with a worsted weight (cascade 220) and then switched to the Pastaza, which is bulky.
My other fun and exciting news: I got my passport this week! It was turned around in less than a month, if you can believe that! :) Now I'm ready to travel, anytime, anywhere! I was expecting 6 weeks of waiting, but instead, it came in just under 4. What a thrill for me!
