Lucy Neatby Sea Lettuce Scarf at 3 Bags Full Studio

By -


I walked into my LYS 3 Bags in Northbrook, IL and what did I see?
A Lucy Neatby scarf staring at me,
This Sea Lettuce Scarf was made from Colinette Jitterbug. The pattern is for people who enjoy counting. Basically, you work one side of the scarf making a triangle, the work across to the other side and work a triangle. It gets a bit more frilly with the designed picot edge. Something new. Good gift idea.

I was tagged by NatRedKnits for a list of quirky things about me. Well that is pretty much a running theme here! Here's the quirk for today: I have dreams about my teeth falling out. Hows that for ya?
I'll talk to you in the comments. :)

Cool scarf! But I do not enjoy counting since I tend to not be able to do it!

Quite an unusual scarf!
When I was in college, I use to dream of my teeth falling out as well. They would just start cracking off and I would spit pieces for what seemed like hours. I contribute the dreams to tension over grades etc. because I've never had them since I graduated. So, I guess I'm about as quirkey as you! ;)

I just bought the pattern for that scarf. I did a quick read but it didn't make any sense to me, so I hope it's better when I get a chance to study it more.

Interesting about your teeth! Do you grind them in your sleep?

Oh dear, this is turning into a tooth blog. Whatever have I done? Maybe it ought to be irishteethknitting.blogspot.com...

Interestingly Katherine, I do grind my teeth.

Fascinating however, is your comment Elizabeth. Spitting the tooth pieces out is exactly how the dream goes for me too. What does this mean? Is there a knitter who dream reads out there?

Im sure it is all stress related!

Well i dream about having all my teeth fall out too actually. It started happening after I had major jaw surgery- I attributed it to being scared that more would go wrong with my jaw.... and every time it happens (the dream) I wake up in a cold sweat.

I love the lettuce scarf- but I hate counting. I like patterns that are interesting but that I can memorize.

I have not had that dream before. It appears to be a common one though. I wonder what it means?

In my dream I have a mouth full of pulled teeth much like a mouth full of marbles I have been clenching my jaw since I had the close to death exsperience fear of sleeping.Hugs Darcy

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
