We may have difficulties getting TT22 away from Maryland, where he has been playing hide and seek with Deetzie either in the gardens or at the Black Sheep yarn store (… no wonder, with such a yarn selection!)
However, it’s time to determine the next host, for September.
If you are interested and available to “entertain” TT22 for a month, please leave a comment in the comments section below.
No hexagon weaving experience necessary … if you have a friend who is new to (hexagon) pin loom weaving, please share this post and invite them to host TT22!
Signup is open now, and will end Wednesday, August 31st, at noon time US CDT. I will contact the new host and make the announcement shortly after I hear back from him/her.
If you would like to know more about how this challenge works, please see the plan.
The trip across the country went smoothly, and Crow and I had great chats along the way. Thank you, Beth, for sending Crow along!
Exploring my home for August … a brook in the backyard! Instant favorite. It’s the Charles Run that ultimately feeds into the Chesapeake Bay.
Had a great time with Deetzie’s grandson! We didn’t get much weaving done, but we enjoyed making noise together.
Look at those Black Eye’d Susans! I learned that they are the state flower of Maryland. From Texas I know that they make excellent natural dye …
I felt famous when we visited the biweekly Sit&Stitch at the Hereford Branch of the Baltimore County Public Library…no one had seen a hexagon loom before!
Then we visited the Perennial Farm in Glen Arm and I helped Deetzie to buy two Chelone (Turtlehead) plants.
This is one of the Turtlehead plants … not sure if it’s the pink or the white one … I like them both, and this way Deetzie can always remember that she bought the Turtleheads when the TURTLE was visiting!
But my favorite place was the Black Sheep yarn store … yarns and colors galore! Perfect place for hide and seek, and weave, and hide, and weave, and hide …

I would love to host the turtle here in New Mexico and I just heard I have to travel to Sydney for work for a week in September so I could facilitate a trip back and forth across the Pacific!
I would love to be the host for September! It’s my birthday month and the beginning of autumn, my favorite time of year!
We have had a delightful month together! Over too quickly!

And think of how many Hexagons you could produce with TT22 on the trip! TT fits very nicely in a small a bag and it only takes a small amount of yarn!
Thank you, the signup is now closed!
