I dag er det nymåne. Det er kinesisk nytår, oksens år starter, og så er det TUSAL-tid.
Og hvad er så TUSAL? Det er en forkortelse for Totally Useless Stitch A-Long - totalt nyttesløs sy-kreds.
Man gemmer alle sine fraklippede garnender, tråde og så videre. Alt det, man normalt smider ud, og putter dem i en fin beholder. Hver gang det er nymåne, tager man et billede af beholderen og enderne, skriver en blogpost om dem, og linker til nedenstående.

I den forgangne måned er det ikke tråde og garn, der har fyldt mest. De fleste ender stammer fra min vinding af plantefarvet garn i pæne nøgler. Men her er i hvert fald februars stumper:

I have not been very diligent in yarny ways in the past lunar month.
Most of my ORTs come from my winding of plant dyed yarns into cakes.Here are my February ORTs.
Love those colours. Gentle, soft, beautiful.
SvarSletYour plant dyed yarns are lovely.
SvarSletI love the idea of TUSAL. It's nice to find beauty in things we would normally throw away. It's proof that art can be found everywhere, if we take the time to appreciate it. The colours here remind me of a spring woodland.
SvarSletWhat a fun tradition! I'm afraid my little box would be filled with paper and rejected drafts of writings! ;) I am in awe of people who can craft yarns into something...usable! Love the colours!
SvarSletYes, sometimes my ORTs bin looks like that as well; citing myself from September 2017:
Slet- I also have a virtual ORTs bin from writing and editing. It's overflowing with misplaces commas, stray sentences, typos and orthographic mistakes, great ideas which were not so great after all, and wrong terms.
So please join in ;)
