The Runcible Bin: Bringing New York "Down to Date"
http://runciblebin.blogspot.com/2014/04/bringing-new-york-down-to-date.html
Friday, April 11, 2014. Bringing New York "Down to Date". To prepare for our week in New York, I've started reading H. Allen Smith's Rhubarb. And EB. White's Here is New York. Is the story of a cat who inherits a baseball team. The book jacket claims the author "has batted out a double-header of a novel-every inning loaded with laughs.". Here is New York. Was originally written for Holiday. The moebius cowl is my current obsession. I cast on 200 stitches using Cat Bordhi's. Posted by Mrs. Lear.

The Runcible Bin: Some items for a Summer to do list
http://runciblebin.blogspot.com/2014/07/some-items-for-summer-to-do-list.html
Thursday, July 3, 2014. Some items for a Summer to do list. This sweater by The Elder Statesman in Vogue is calling out to me. I'd like to make it in blue out of a cotton blend or a linen like Quince's Kestrel. We just returned from two weeks in England and Scotland. We went mudlarking in London one night. I want to make a wonderful necklace from all the pipe stems. I have been experimenting with pom poms out of leftover kidsilk haze, maybe this is where I will use them. Greek and Roman perfume bottles!

The Runcible Bin: Quay scarf
http://runciblebin.blogspot.com/2014/01/quay-scarf.html
Friday, January 10, 2014. This is the Quay scarf from Brooklyn Tweed. Knit in a little over four skeins of "Old World" Shelter worsted weight. I used a #5 needle. There are so many BT patterns I want to knit. My New Year's resolution is to write down a dinner menu for every evening, simply: mon=eggs; tue=pasta, wed=crepes, thu=burgers, fri=pizza. Posted by Mrs. Lear. I use agave, do you have it near you? It is easily substituted for any recipe sweetened with honey. January 10, 2014 at 1:44 PM. Subscribe ...

The Runcible Bin: Hello
http://runciblebin.blogspot.com/2007/07/welcome.html
Saturday, July 7, 2007. Late in the afternoon when people around here start asking what’s for supper, I clear the kitchen table by sweeping all the work of the day - papers, books, yarn and whatnots - into the Runcible. Bin Later when I retrieve these bits, I often find an idea has formed inside the bin. These ideas will be logged here. Posted by Mrs. Lear. I can't wait to see what Mrs. Lear has in store for us.

The Runcible Bin: Pom Pom garlands and necklaces
http://runciblebin.blogspot.com/2014/06/pom-pom-garlands-and-necklaces.html
Monday, June 2, 2014. Pom Pom garlands and necklaces. I have been making garlands for end of the school year parties. They are mostly paper but then I saw a pom pom garland. And then I thought about mini pom poms made of leftover kid silk haze and what great necklaces they would make. So now I am alternating an addiction to jumbo pom poms with a need to make mini pom poms. It keeps me going. Posted by Mrs. Lear. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). About the runcible bin.

Wednesday, October 30, 2013. A Handknit for Ft. Ross. My son asked me to knit this for his class overnight at Ft. Ross coming up next week. I started this at the beginning of the playoffs and here we are at the end of October getting ready to watch the Cardinals take on the Red Sox in Game 6 of the World Series. Oh this is not World Series knitting here! The pattern is Dr. G's Memory Vest. The wool is Quince Yarn's Lark in Gingerbread. Posted by Mrs. Lear. He is going to love it, beautiful vest.

The Runcible Bin: Treasures in the Cultural Halls
http://runciblebin.blogspot.com/2014/04/treasures-in-cultural-halls.html
Monday, April 21, 2014. Treasures in the Cultural Halls. Our week in New York was really fun. We slept in and stayed out late. The trees in every park and side street were blossoming. Late one night we visited the Temple of Dendur. And then walking to our hotel across the park we could hear voices from a party in Belvedere Castle. I have just a few inches to go on the sleeve of my Redford. And I am just in time. I see Wool People 7. Is coming out tomorrow! Posted by Mrs. Lear. About the runcible bin.

The Runcible Bin: BT Men's Redford
http://runciblebin.blogspot.com/2014/03/bt-mens-redford.html
Thursday, March 27, 2014. I've been knitting away at Julie Hoover's. From the BT Men's collection. I tried on the sample at the trunk show Verb. I've been thinking about combining knitted pieces with cloth after seeing this Bonnie Cashin piece. Maybe silk or linen knitted sleeves and yoke and then add a linen front and back?

The Runcible Bin: Flowers at Home
http://runciblebin.blogspot.com/2014/05/flowers-at-home.html
Wednesday, May 7, 2014. I've been mixing bits of the yard and pieces from florists lately. Visiting the homes on the Berkeley House Tour this weekend reminded me how lovely it is to have flowers in your home. I checked "Bringing Nature Home" out of the library again. Every page is such an inspiration. The cover photo shows the wallpaper in Erica Tanov's bedroom. I also checked out "Undecorate" which has lovely photos of her home. Posted by Mrs. Lear.
