Chocula Chip and I are having a great race so far! It's been a little warm, both here and in Alaska, but there's rumor of good snow in our forecast heading into this weekend. 20 and I have our fingers crossed :-).
Yesterday I finally got to the point where I was ready to start punching. Leading up to this we were dividing up yarn amounts, securing the edges of our fabric, dyeing our colors, making a punch frame cozy (after adding some bandaids to our sled kit :-o), drawing out our pattern and setting up our work space/camping spot.
This is what it looks like on the "working" side...which is actually the back. You are punching through this side to make your loops show on the front.
I added in some light purple to the Northern Lights which wasn't originally on the design, but the lights are always changing so I think that's legal :-).
Mushing on!
