Well Nooo

Changes Afoot and allllll dat.


I'm taking a peerie swing the other way regards to blogging.


From now on, despite the fact that you know we live on F.I. I wont be blogging F.I. much at all. Instead, all that will be blogged will be us & our tiny wee parcel of fenced in grunn, which could as well be anywhere.

This is a bit weird but bear with me.Last year I went to Juneau in Alaska and end up in the local museum. One of the exhibits was a photo of an Indian from the Aleutian Islands playing a fiddle and a gang of Indians dancing a reel.The comment was that Shetland whalers spent time there at the tur of the century.I believe these islands are now evacuated since WWII.But what made my hair stand on end were some samples of Indian pottery which had symbols that became the FI knitting pattern if you squashed them.Could be cruise ship mania but is there any history that you know of anybody?

The designs used in fair isle knitting seem to have arrived from all over the world, trading with passing ships etc all introduced different designs into the imagination & things just snowballed from there. History shows that many designs started to appear all over the world within the same timeline, great minds thinking alike on a large scale perhaps. Ps, who stole summer ??????
