I'm having a little cry. Right now the Carnival continues, loud bright and brash, without me.
Simply too tired from an amazing, incredible, overwhelming day.
Thank you to everyone. Drop by later on sunday for photos...
Moving a little slowly this morning...
but it's Carnivale time! and it isn't raining! Well, ahem. May be in denial.
See you shortly - stiX and I absolutely can't wait!

Isn't rain wonderful? Good thing the skies are emptying today, just in time for the Carnival tomorrow! Should it be showering as the paper tells me it will, we shall be located inside the Bristol, and running out regularly to adorn the trees. Which may mean we shall be drunken. Of course, if it is sunny, we will be in the planned spot outside the Hotel Bristol. And quite possibly also drunken. Can't wait to see you tomorrow! Knitsch xx
They have started setting up for the Carnival. And mannn does it look awesome.
I can't wait for the trees to be able to join in!
We do Webstock...
and a wee sneak preview for Saturday!

I have myriad things I should be doing right now, all in the name of OutdoorKnit. But three glasses of rose in the sunshine has successfully thwarted those plans.
Showing someone the site this morning, i realised that our front page was lacking in images.
Duly amended.
There is some fantastic work going up in Left Bank, off Cuba Mall at the moment. I love, love, love the woman in victorian dress. Not so sure about the er, appendage she appears to be spraying. What do you think? is it woman claiming that she is comfortable with her sexuality, or is she being marginalised by the artist with the addition? I'm pretty pleased that 1. there is attention being drawn to women in graffiti and 2. the amazing amount of time and effort that has gone into this.
Poop-poo to to Don McKinnon and his belief that Left Bank is an example of all that is bad and evil about graffiti.
