I've been looking at the details for Tunisian crochet in one of my books, toying with the idea of giving it a go so this could be a starting point perhaps? I love what you say about being attracted to the names of things - as an English teacher I'm always trying to persuade students about the importance of vocabulary choices and the connotations of words - even though we know how it works on us and why advertisers etc. do it, there is still something so powerful about the images that words evoke, even on something so lowly as the name of a yarn colour!

I had NO mini eggs this year as we returned home on Easter Monday and when I went looking for the heavily discounted eggy peggies, there were NONE to be had. The scandal of it.

I heard about your Easter Blizzard sounded dreadful...<br /><br /><br />I really like your Alaska Blue Tub container crochet. The flowers are sooooooooooooooooo very very cute. <br /><br />Here it is coolish and rainy and is forcasted for all week. But I would prefer rain anyday to a snow blizzard.

I think we're all influenced by logos, labels and colour names (which is why of course they use them) and it always amuses me to see the different names given to the same colours when overseas.<br />Glad you're feeling better. You've reminded me that I hid away a few mini eggs - better just check they're still edible. xAnne Wheatonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16936340776230192967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7270442039937122804.post-77040039040356052412013-04-09T18:07:27.094+01:002013-04-09T18:07:27.094+01:00Happy belated Easter E!
