I didn't know Prince wrote that song. I spent Sunday knitting a beret, because "that's my fun day, my I don't have to run day". Here's the colors I picked in Lorna's Laces Staccato mini skeins. Rippey for Purple Rain, Violin 5 for Raspberry Beret and Bold Red for Little Red Corvette.
Yeah, it's my tribute to Prince. The pattern? Luminara, which is mine.
The lace motif looks like a flame to me is from Stitch Definition by Annie Maloney, it's pattern #47.
My Manic Monday posts used to be all about planning. Lining up your ducks. I had a different career then which was pretty stressful and crafting helped balance things. I'm without that particular career now and it's been a year trying to accept that it's over. Every now and then I toy getting back in but that thought quickly goes away. I just don't want that life anymore.
So what am I doing now? Crafting fulltime! Living the dream. But wait, before you get all excited...it pays nothing. So I'm planning again. I need to figure out how this is going to generate moola.
Manic Mondays
Tech Tuesdays and Thursdays
WiP Wednesdays
FO Fridays
Not that I'll be blogging everyday. But when I do that day will be devoted to the above themes. If I'm not blogging that day will still be devoted to the above themes. Mondays will still be all about lining up those ducks. Tuesday's and Thursdays will be about either high tech and how it applies to crafting or techniques like brioche, mosaic, and designing. WiP Wednesdays and FO Fridays will be just that, working on stuff, finishing stuff.
Prince also wrote Nothing Compares 2 U, I didn't know that either. There's a line "Girl you better try to have fun no matter what you do" I'm gonna try that -- because Prince was no fool.

I love this... on so many levels.
Congratulations on the life change and thank you for putting so many good songs in my head. :-)
Sometimes I thought Prince was a little odd, but I always loved him. I'm really sad that he's gone.
