1. Pigeon! This one, again at Bathurst Station, was too pretty to ignore so I snapped her picture. She looked like she might be offering Lotto advice.
This was across from the Jamaican patty bakery downstairs.
2. For Joanie:
One fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish pants. On Queen West, outside of CityTV. It’s hard to take a decent picture when you’re trying to be discrete.
tackle them, steal their pants, and send them to MEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Oh and btw do you have an easy mitten pattern (crochet) the kids are going through them like mad and I figure it’ll be cheaper to make them.
Jamie, m’love, are you a member of Ravelry? If not, get thee a membership asap, all the free patterns for easy mittens and otherwise are there. I have crocheted mitts in the past, it’s pretty easy, but I think I must have improvised the pattern, but that’s pretty easy to do with crochet-just take an existing mitten and copy it.
OR, a Canadian Living pattern:

These look nice:

These are very pretty (but I think Drops patterns are in English, not North American):

Very, very cute:

Now, remember, I have NOT used any of these patterns and can’t vouch for them! Good luck!
Just registered…WOWZERS I think I’m going to try a pair of the fingerless ones for work when I’m at work…it can get chilly in there but I still need to type :)
Yay, Jamie! Once you have your page all good, my username there is same here…and everywhere it seems. Hook me up (haha!)!
How do I add you on my friends????
Well, if you can find my page there, there’s an ‘add to my friends’ button on the left side of the screen on any user’s page.

the mittens are making me insane…but I’ve just about got it :)
why is fishy pants for me? or do you know another Joanie?
But yay for rocking the fishy pants. If wishes were fishes we would all have a pair of those rockin pants :p
It was more in reference to your fb status about wearing pj bottoms in public. I know you meant chicks, that’s why this made me laugh even more, a DUDE wearing jammies on Queen St W, carrying a guitar, oh lord.
I DID IT…I’ve made a mitten…now I have to make the other one…but I have to day I had 3 DISASTEROUS attempts first…mutant mittens, lol
say…I have to say..ugh
jammie pants in public are the worste, I have to curb the urge to go slap people I see doing it or at least offer to buy them a full length mirror
it’s odd to see a guy doing it, I really thought that attrocity was limited to the female gender, apparently laziness and bad ste knows no bounds
ha, it was supposed to say bad TASTE
