Because of the large size, the knitting doesn't take too long (just don't overdo yourself as it is a bit hard on the hands!).

Unfortunately, most people ignore the law & still use them. They're such a distraction ... even when pedestrians use them and don't pay attention to where they are walking!!September Violetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10931133319044031928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4062746784364845999.post-23947221318435034362013-11-05T06:16:01.728-05:002013-11-05T06:16:01.728-05:00Thanks Gail :)Thanks Gail :)September Violetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10931133319044031928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4062746784364845999.post-85027217121739200172013-11-04T18:43:00.668-05:002013-11-04T18:43:00.668-05:00Gorgeous, gorgeous!!

I think that if everyone had to spend a week being a pedestrian without the safety of their cars around them, they'd maybe wake up to the fact that pedestrians are so vulnerable out there. I never get back to touch-ups if I leave it too long either. Eventually enough time has gone by that I just end up doing the whole room again ;)September Violetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10931133319044031928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4062746784364845999.post-36699688769842402952013-11-02T08:17:11.774-04:002013-11-02T08:17:11.774-04:00Thanks so much Beth :) I like the mixed colour bi...Thanks so much Beth :) I like the mixed colour bits too, and would've done the whole mat using the mix, but only had so much of the white/brown twist. I always wanted to learn to knit, but kept putting it off. Finally I just knew I HAD to learn or it would be too late!

Even in front of our school, there's no respect for the children or their parents as they are crossing the road. We don't have crossing guards and such. Cars just whiz by and will even go around someone in the street. It's awful! Glad to hear all is well after all the craziness. I have touch ups to do in my kids room that I have never gotten to in nearly a year. :/ The rug turned out beautiful. And the comfort dolls are very sweet. I look forward to the bedroom reveal.
