If there’s one thing we can attest to, all work and no play makes our feet idle and dull.
So last Thursday afternoon,true religion jeans discounted, we left our cubicals, spreadsheets and overhead fluorescent lighting behind to lace up our Merrell shoes to participate in our annual Merrell Games.
Six teams of overzealously competitive Onlineshoes.com staff took to our building’s front lawn to embrace Merrell’s spirit of getting outside…and then immediately huddled together for warmth as summer seemed to have decided to sleep in. But even the weather couldn’t cool off our sense of sportsmanship, our passion to celebrate Merrell, and especially, our overwhelming desire to do anything in our power not to return to our adjustable office chairs.
Much like the Olympics, the rules were simple: The team who won the most events would be crowned the winner. The whistle was blown and the games were afoot.
With our Merrell representative leading the way, we played lawn darts with rubber bands,cheap true religion jeans sale, passed water balloons, shot waste-paper-bin basketballs, stuck as many Post-its on team members as we could, and, of course, tried to match the Merrell shoe with the right style name—from the Jungle Moc to the customer-loved Merrell hiking shoes.
It was fun, it was spirited, it was raucous…and it was exactly the spirit Merrell aims to get across in all of their products: Being outside is one of the best places to be. In the end, we all stood together as winners in our Merrell shoes (though, one team won just a little bit more than the others…).
Anyone tried their own version of the Merrell Games? Let us know!

Now that these shawls are finally finished and have reached their recipients, I can safely show them to you all!
The Tulips Shawlette, above, is by Anniken Allis, and the pattern’s in Issue 36 of The Knitter. The moment I saw it, I reached for the first 4-ply yarn I could find in my stash, and started knitting. It was quite a while before I realised that I had no earthly use for a peach lace shawl, but I was enjoying knitting it so much that I didn’t really care. Eventually it occurred to me that it would look lovely on Paul’s grandmother, and it became her Christmas gift.
The yarn is Rowan Cashcotton 4-ply, now discontinued. I usually prefer not to work with cotton because it hurts my hands, but this is soft and lovely. Unfortunately the angora does shed – working with this on my lap made me wonder whether Bond villains need shares in lint rollers, to get rid of all the fluffy white hairs.

I hadn’t knitted any lace quite as complicated as this before, feather & fan being about my limit. But the two designs fitted together really well (being an 8-row and a 16-row repeat) and the pattern was written out as well as charted. I followed the written instructions for the most part, because I find a row of text easier to keep in my head than a row of symbols. I used a lot of sticky notes to mark my place, and it took me a long time to really understand how the pattern worked.

I did use the charts for the edging pattern, mostly because I couldn’t seem to get the written instructions to repeat properly. I’m not terribly keen on the edging, it doesn’t seem very definite,true religion jeans fat girl, somehow. But I do like the shawl as a whole, and I feel a bit braver about working from charts now.

Because the Tulips pattern required a lot of concentration, I wanted another project to work on that was much simpler. I also wanted something that could also work as a lap blanket. This one is Wall of Shawl, by Martina Patricia Munroe. I think this design looks much more interesting in a handspun or multi-coloured yarn, but I thought it would be nice to make a “matching” gift for each of Paul’s grandmothers, and I was really enjoying working with the Cashcotton.
In fact, I was enjoying it right up until I came to knit the edging. That yo row (the decorative holes near the bottom) doubles the stitch count, at which point I thought my head might explode with boredom. I didn’t count the stitches on the final row, because I didn’t want to know!
The only thing I don’t like about this shawl is the way that the edge curls up. It’s a natural feature of stocking stitch, so there’s not much I could have done to prevent it. The pattern suggests knitting the ruffle about 3” long, which probably helps, but I was running out of time and patience. I could also have cast off on the wrong side, which would have turned the edging inwards, rather than out. But the shawl itself is a lovely size, and the fabric drapes beautifully.
I still don’t have any real need for a peach lace shawl, but I have quite a lot of this yarn left, and The Knitter seems to be going through a phase of showing me lots of lovely patterns that I really must knit as soon as I possibly can! I’m resisting the urge at the moment though, while I knit my fifth Clapotis – a nice simple one in Rowan Silky Tweed. After that, perhaps I’ll cast on for something a little bit more complicated.

I don’t think I showed you the finished blouse that I was making for Aldbrickham Clog & Step Dancers. It took much longer than I was expecting, because I ended up having to make all of the buttonholes by hand.
The body and collar of the blouse are from Simplicity 3623, with pintucks instead of gathering at the shoulders. The sleeves are from Simplicity 2207, and the buttons down the front were added by request.
I’m just waiting to find out whether the blouse is going to be okay for dancing – because of the shape of the sleeve heads,sexy true religion jeans, I might need to add a little gusset at the underarm to allow a better range of movement. Otherwise, I’m really pleased with how it’s turned out.
