Effed-Up Lace

Hello on this stovetop lasagna Friday!!

Last evening I was knitting happily along on Just Beachy (still Part Two but ironically I just wound the rest of the minis for Part Three) when lace disaster struck:

(OK, you probably can't see it here, but somewhere in there is a double decrease and a couple of yarnovers that managed to get f-ed up a couple of rows back.  I even added markers every two repeats (imagine how bad it would be if I hadn't done that?).  I fiddled with it but I think I made it worse.  I'm thinking tomorrow's inclement weather will be the perfect day for lace remediation.  In the meantime, I'll soldier on with WWS#1 and Shawlography!)

In other news - we've had quite the run of extraordinarily beautiful weather the past few days.  I've been eating apples in solidarity :)

Stay safe and well!

There is an exquisite beauty in the way tetrodotoxin is made harmless to its hosts, the way a wasp moth vomits over its mate, or the way a mongoose withstands the venom of the cobra. To me, these are things worth exploring, so I do. " In his book, Macinnis endeavors to describe poisonous compounds and their science, relate which historical figures are implicated in the use of these poisons, and document how these poisons are referred to literature. He then attempts to weave all of these aspects together. Macinnis does indeed attempt to cover aspects of science, people, and all the history inbetween, but he does not seem quite able to cover everything in a consistent, coherent way. I think there is just to
