Knitspam
Some quick knitspam to show off my new blocking board and its crazy skills! My blocking board is a set of four interlocking foam mats more usually used for exercise.
This is Matilda, unblocked, sitting on said blocking board:
You can see she is all crumply and you can't see the pattern properly.
This is Matilda being blocked:
Now she's all nice and smooth and you can see the pattern! You will also notice she has become considerably larger in size. As you can see, I really need another set of mats because she's just a wee bit too big for them, but they'll do.
Pattern: Matilda by Kate Blackburn. Yarn: Fleece Artist Blue Face Leicester 2/8 in 'Aurora'.

Could I commission you to make on like the outfits ABBA wore on the '79 tour?
Also, down to the post office they gave me an estimate of $40 to ship the box o' stuff I have for you to you, so I'm gonna have to plan for that, but I do have a box o' stuff for you. It'll get there eventually.
