Saturday sky plus...

Sky outside our house at 19:50 this evening.

I have a new camera phone, so I need a new phone case… so I knitted one (duh!) And here it is:

Pattern: My own (alternating fern lace (from Harmony Guide Vol 1) on front, plain stocking stitch on back – knitted in the round using 42 sts) 3rd row from top K1, yo K2tog to create eyelet holes for drawstring, 3 needle bind-off at the bottom.)
Yarn: 100% cotton DK – found in bargain bin.
Needles: 3mm dpns (It was a pretty thin DK!)

If I make another one I’ll probably use fewer stitches – 36 would probably be enough.

And because the camera phone is a new toy, we have to play with it – John took this this morning – don’t we look happy:

Oh and entries to my caption contest below seem to be drying up, so I’ll use a random number generator tomorrow (Sunday) (Chris? I know you know one… ) and pick a winner – comp closes at 6pm BST.

Great sky! Love your cell phone cover – and you all look SO happy in that picture!

I swear, blog contests don’t need to be more than a few days long, because interest is immediate and then – phbbbbt. I always use this generator: http://www.randomizer.org/form.htm
