Oh, she knew perfectly well that she was supposed to be serious, concerned, keeping up on the news of the day, fearful of the Next Big Thing, savvy and cool, yet at the same time perturbed and troubled over . . . everything.
Another wall #basket inspired by Hanna’s YouTube video. Dogwood, golden #willow and some green basket willow. Still cold here and the dogwood is just beginning to bud in the shady cold canyon where I #wildcraft. Also discovered some native “ditch willow” which I am propagating for the future! #handmade#nativeplants
Finally finished the basket I started last autumn. The frame and ribs are wisteria. The gods-eyes are my handspun wool-alpaca blend that I dyed with sandalwood (that was an experiment I'll never repeat). Most of the weaving is braided cordage I made from day lily, yellow flag iris, and gladiolus leaves. I ran out of my homemade cordage and ended ip finishing the center of the basket with braided strips of leather scrap from some thrifted jackets I had used to reupholster our dining chairs. So it's a motley, rustic combination, but I'm happy with it.
One project partially completed. The handles and ribs are wisteria; the cordage is a mixture of day lily, gladiolus, and yellow flag iris leaves. The yarn is some wool/alpaca blend that I spun and dyed with sandalwood.
Been working on some baskets. Well, the bottom of them, stopping before they are hard to transport. I'm thinking of making a matching set in different colours but I'm not sure how big I'll want them to be until I'm back home and figure out what I'll put in them
I'm still fairly new at this so they're a bit messy
Experimenting with form! This #basket is based on an oval in a circle. Golden #willow and #dogwood osier twigs weave together to make a useful carrier. #wildcrafted#handmade

Afternoon Twters! Yesterday and today have been spent with my brother and his family up near Aberystwyth, having a craft day with my sister in law. We're making baskets out of old fabric, cutting it into strips and twisting it to use as yarn. It's going pretty well!
Home later though, hopefully the weather brightens up for the drive.
Un fait marquant par rapport aux All-Blacks c'est que j'ai appris que l'équipe de Basket Néo-zélandaise s'appelle les Tall-Black et c'est trop marrant #FraNzl#Rugby#Basket
Spain vs Canada, winner goes through, loser goes out.
1st quarter 21-21
Both started nervous. CAN managed it better so far. CAN strong in defensive rebound, no 2nd chances for ESP. ESP good at stealing with front defence, weaker in the paint.
ESP has an Italian coach, Scariolo. CAN has a Spanish coach, Jordi Fernandez.
These words come from an Italian man. Although his wife Blanca and their two kids are Spanish, he has contributed enormously to the concept of playing basketball "like Spain".
Grazie, coach. Sono fiero di te.
As Ricky Rubio says: Never too high, never too low.
"Polpetta, ho la pressione alta ..."
"Babbo ... hai guardato la partita eh?"
"Sta buona, va là, che al -16, ho spento, incazzato nero, poi non ho resistito, ho riacceso e bipbip*** mi sono perso un gran pezzo della rimonta."
"Babbo, ora tranquillo, e la pressione va a posto."
"Tu, guardala che poi ne parliamo"
"No, che poi discutiamo, perché tu la analizzi con gli occhi di un allenatore anni 70"
Quando dico che "son venuta su" a pane e #basket ...
Strong start! #Brazil very accurate on their shots 1st quarter. Overcoming Spain's defense with cold blood. Strong and performant: Caboclo. But lost focus in last 5 minutes.
#Spain very aggressive in defense. Good lead by Juan Nuñez. Juancho Hernangomez had some inaccuracies. Spain ahead thanks to 3-pointers in 2nd quarter and strong bench.
Open game! Will Spain keep strong? Can Brazil overcome? My money's on Spain
#Brazil had one option, but couldn't push forward. In the 3rd quarter #Spain got stuck. But Brazil too, and they only made it to - 5
Spain broke the game mid-4th quarter thanks to neverending strong defense and offense accuracy. Every player from Spain's bench was as good as the starting one.
Spain goes through as group lead (still to play Iran). Brazil should secure qualification against Ivory Coast.
