Links

Here are a few interesting things from around the web that grabbed me this week:

• how to ice dye – a DIY from jojotastic. This is awesome. I haven’t set up the dye baths in a long time, but this makes me want to. It’s pretty neat, because there is no stirring or babysitting. In fact, you set it all up and leave it overnight. All you need is patience.
• Argyle Cane – a polymer clay tutorial from Kael Mijoy. I happen to like millefiori that mimics fabric and textiles in some way. I can see all kinds of interesting possibilities with this technique.
• Ticking Stripe Wrap – a knitting project from Purl Soho. Why, oh, why are all of the gorgeous projects I see from Purl done with skinny yarn and tiny needles? I love the look of this scarf, but I suspect it would take me a year and a half to knit one myself.
• Remembering How to Leap – thoughts and photographs from Deborah Candeub, via Viewfinders. I love everything about this, which she refers to as “a reminder that the water is always getting just a little bit warmer, and from time-to-time I need to force myself to leap into the possibilities of the cold air, if only to assure myself that I still can and because I feel more alive – and more myself – when I do.”

Have a fabulous weekend!
