Yikes! Hurricane a comin'

Tropical Storm Isaac has me indoors with the puppy.  Thankfully I prepared ahead of time with batteries, water, snacks, and a brand new magazine.  It's a special issue called Peyote Stitch and it's out by Bead and Button. If we didn't have a storm coming, I probably wouldn't have stopped at the magazine rack.  Actually, I was looking for potato chips and the rack was right behind me so I opted to look for knitting magazines.  That's when I spotted it.  It looks great with 25 projects.  There is an article on learning the secrets of Peyote and How to Read a Peyote Pattern.   As you know, I attempted to learn peyote a couple of weeks ago.  I even made a couple of rings.  But I'm still not grasping the concept of the stitch.  Herringbone is finally making sense, but Peyote is a not so much.  I need someone to hold my hand on that one.  I am thrilled with the new magazine.  I'm hoping they do a special magazine for all the stitches.  So with a chicken in the oven (store bought, not the one from the yard), and a new magazine, that's how I'm spending my day.  Is the weather keeping you down?
