The Auberjonois

So, I have FINALLY figured out the clapotis pattern... in time for Michael to have come up with a nickname for it. Since he couldn't remember the name of it, but knew that it was French, he used the name of a regular Star Trek actor who also has a long French name... and then just to be funny, he made a long funny spelling out of that name as well... and it totally cracked me up.

These are what he calls "geographical" jokes... I guess you had to be there.

I am THRILLED to have gotten past the roadblock. (For techno people, I was having trouble purling into the front and back of the same stitch. I watched a quick video on the internet, practicing on some toss yarn, and now I've got it). And now that I understand it, I can TOTALLY see making more, trying out some BEAUTIFUL yarn and giving these as gifts. Over 11,000 made on ravelry.com and I can see why!
