My tarot bag:



Now I know it basically looks like a big, nobbly lump of yarn, but really I'm rather proud of it. I totally made the pattern up myself, which, yeah, is obvious but it worked.

Basically I just cast on 26 stiches and then knitted two rows then did knit one purl one until it looked big enough, and then decreased, doing knit 1, knit two together, and then knitted one row, and then did ti a couple of more times, then I cut the yarn, leaving a large tail which I threaded through the remaining stiches on the needle and pulled it together, then I just stiched up the side and woo-hoo, a bag.

Then I just threaded some more yarn around the top to make it a drawstring.

In other news, I had this weird dream last night where I was coming up with a story idea. It was, of course, brilliant in my dream, and I wrote it down as soon as I woke up, but I'd like some opinions if it sounds at all interesting.

Girl’s parents were spies? She had an exciting life until they disappeared when she was 11. Now she lives with her Aunt and Uncle. They move to a new town where there is this mysterious castle or something. Haunted? She meets someone, they investigate, she discovers something mystical, maybe? That leads to her parents’ return.

That's basically it from my dream. I think an amusement park was involved as well.

Charlie still has a cough, and this morning he said he didn't want to go to school, but I said he had to. Then I felt guity and I said, 'Do you really not feel well, or do you just want to stay home from school?'

'I just want to stay home from school.' he said.

At least he's honest.
