Wednesday Weave

~sigh~  This weaving thing is harder than I realized.  I started off intent on making a scarf...how hard could that be, right?  Well, right from the start I pooched it.  See, I don't know if you can tell from the picture above, but the solid colored length is how it should look.  Straight and full.  The multi-colored section has a decided hourglass look.  Wide at the ends and thin in the middle. 

So, goodbye scarf! 

All is not lost though...all practice is good practice and my scarf has turned into a pillow. One more solid for the opposite side of the pattern and I'll sew them together, add a back and stuff that baby.  Will it work?  I can only hope...

Song of the Day:   Mean by Taylor Swift.   Not sure why this song has hit my radar today,  Darling Diva hasn't been playing it, but it has a catchy tune and I like the sentiment.  Heck, its not the first time I've listen to the kidlet's music when she's not here...I'm guess it won't be the last.  ;)
