<p><em>In this article for <a title="Check out Ireland's longest running online Irish language magazine" href="http://www.beo.ie" target="_blank">Beo!</a> I write about the place of culture in the technological age. at the very botom you&#8217;ll find link to a previous blogpost that covers some of the same ground. I kick off here with a link to a great blog post by Aonghus Ó hAlmhain about developing programmers. I also write a little about the Stop SOPA Ireland campaign.</em></p>
<p>Críochnaigh mé <a title="Check out my last article on Beo! in a a new window" href="http://beo.ie/alt-charades-action.aspx" target="_blank">m’alt deiridh</a> ar thaobh aibhéise de shaghas inar chuir mé tús le ceist mhór i leith oideachas na teicneolaíochta. Bhí roinnt plé ansin idir mé féin agus Aonghus i dtráchtaireachtaí leis an alt féin agus ar Twitter. I ndeireadh báire, scaoil Aonghus leis ar a bhlag féin inar mhínigh sé an scéal ar fad agus a thuras pearsanta isteach i saol an ríomhcláraitheora. <a title="Read Aonghus' blogpost in a new window" href="http://aonghus.blogspot.com/2012/01/oideachas-agus-oiliuint.html" target="_blank">Is spéisiúil an léargas é agus is fiú a léamh.</a></p>
<p>Sa bhlag mhír seo pléann sé na bunclocha atá de dhíth chun ríomhcláraitheoir a thógáil. Táim féin den tuairim gurb iad foighde agus stuacacht na tréithe is mó atá de dhíth ar ríomhchláraitheoir: foighde chun chur suas le cliaint dúra cosúil liomsa agus stuacacht chun leanúint leat i gcoinne constaicí loighice agus dothuisceana a bhíonn, go minic, féinchruthaithe.</p>
<p>Ach in ionad a bheith ag scaoileadh fúm is tharam anseo faoin droch-chaoi ina bhfuil oideachas na teicneolaíochta sa tír seo, tharraing scéal eile mo shúil le mhí anuas: is mise snag breac na teicneolaíochta amach is amach! Is mó constaic a pléadh sa nuacht teicneolaíochta le déanaí ó shocraigh roinnt comhlachtaí idirlín tabhairt faoi lá lándorcha in agóid ar SOPA. Rinne acht rialtas SAM <em>“Stop Online Piracy Act”</em> jab an-cheisteach de reachtaíocht cóipchirt don idirlíon. Fuair an reachtaíocht seo an-chuid tacaíochta ó na foilsitheoirí móra ceoil, scannáin agus téacs ach is beag comhlacht idirlín, ceoltóir, ealaíontóirnó foilsitheoir beag a bhí chomh tógtha leis. Is féidir an scéal ar fad a léamh is a thuiscint trí SOPA a chuardach ar líne. An fhadhb is mó a bhí ag lucht a fhreasúra ina gcoinne ná an tslí gur shocraigh lucht a dhréachta ar chasúr a úsáid in áit an chleite. A luaithe is a bhí ábhar faoi chóipceart scaipthe ar ghréasán bhí sé i gceist an gréasán sin a ghearradh ón idirlíon trí iarraidh ar ISP a chuntas a dhúnadh agus trí stop a chur le suíomhanna eile, beag nó mór, nascadh leo.</p>
<h1>In Éirinn</h1>
<p><a href="http://roseannesmith.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/photo-3.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1968" title="Ag taifead ag ceolchoirm" src="http://roseannesmith.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/photo-3-300x300.jpg" alt="Ag taifead ag ceolchoirm" width="300" height="300" align="right" /></a>Shocraigh brúghrúpa Éireannach <a href="http://www.stopsopaireland.com/">StopSOPAIreland</a> úsáid a bhaint as an spéis idirnáisiúinta seo i gcúrsaí dlí, teicneolaíochta agus cearta chunfeachtas tráthúil a sheoladh le haird a tharraingt ar reachtaíocht atá idir láimhe san Oireachtas faoi láthair. De réir mo thuisceana, tá deacracht ag an dream seo leis an mbealach ina bhfuil an reachtaíocht seo á achtú chomh maith le hábhar an achta féin. Is é bun agus barr an scéil ná nach ionann múnla gnó na gcomhlachtaí ceoil, scannáin, bogearraí is leabhair (EMI srl.) atá “ag cosaint a gcóipceart” agus comhshaoil réadúil an chultúir chéanna seo. Níl an t-airgead céanna le déanamh as an gcultúr seo a scaipeadh a thuilleadh agus tá an dinosaur ag fulaingt, ag casacht is ag rith ón scamall dubh atá ag alpadh a dhomhain. N’fheadar céard a bheas fágtha: cúpla puirtleog raithní, crogall agus armadillo? Ach fásfaidh bláthanna agus feilecáin, rud nár mhair faoi ré na ndionosár.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.irishcomposerscollective.com/"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1970" title="Abigail Smith and Sue Rynhart play origial music by Irish composers" src="http://roseannesmith.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/photo-4-224x300.jpg" alt="Abigail Smith and Sue Rynhart play origial music by Irish composers" width="224" height="300" align="right" /></a>An toradh is mó dar liom as an aird seo atá ar SOPA agus reachtaíocht digiteach, idirlín agus cóipcirt ná gur tharraing seo ceist na cruthaitheachta sa ré dhigiteach go lár an aonaigh arís. Ní haon saineolaí dlí mé ach tá deirfiúr agus triúr deartháir agam gur ealaíontóirí is ceoltóirí iad (Is mise caora bán na clainne – iad siúd na cuilthíní). Tá i measc mo chol ceathracha dearthóir faisin, ceoltóir eile, iriseoir, grianghrafadóir (atá pósta le grianghrafadóir): sin an-chuid daoine atá ag brath ar chultúr agus ar a gcearta mar chruthaitheoirí an chultúir sin le snáith a choinneáil faoin bhfiacail. Maith dom mar sin má bhraitheann tú go bhfuilim rud beag claonta ar cheist an chóipchirt sa ré dhigiteach.</p>
<p>Níl aon cheist gur gá le hathbhreathnú ar dhlithe cóipchirt atá de dhíth mar nach n-oireann dlí analógach don ré dhigiteach; dlí a scríobhadh in am an leabhair, na téipe agus an cheirnín. Sa ré úr seo, is féidir cóip dhigiteach fhoirfe a dhéanamh go síoraí. Nuair is féidir é sin a dhéanamh, druideann costas tairgeadh an bhunruda i ngar do neamhní. Conas gur féidir luach a chur leis an mbunrud mar sin? Ach fós tá costais ag baint le cruthú cultúir: go bunúsach, caithfidh ealaíontóir ithe agus ar thaobh eile an scéil, is gá foireann a íoc i dtionscail idirnáisiúnta an cheoil is na scannánaíochta.</p>
<h1>Na Duartain in Aisce</h1>
<p><a href="http://www.pollyfibre.com/index.php?/flat-pack-clothing/pret-a-mediatiser/"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1971" title="Pret a mediatiser" src="http://roseannesmith.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/photo-1-300x300.jpg" alt="Pret a mediatiser" width="300" height="300" align="right" /></a>Is minic anois go mbíonn sé indéanta cóip a fháil go ‘mídhleathach’ nuair nach féidir aon ní a fháil go dleathach: féach mar shampla an clib TV ar do chuid iTunes: níl faic ann ach is féidir duartan a fháil den tsraith is nuaí ar teilifís áit ar bith ar domhan: ná caill do shobalchlár Filipíneach is ansa leat arís go brách! Nó an raibh tú féin chomh díomach is bhí mé féin faoi raon clár a bhí ar fáil ó Netflix nuair a seoladh iad le rí-rá mór anseo le déanaí? Is cinnte go luíonn bochtanas an rogha seo ag doras na gcomhlachtaí móra foilseacháin agus rialtas na tíre seo mar nach féidir leo réiteach a shocrú le leitheidí iTunes, Netflix, Spotify srl. a ligfeadh dóibh a gcatalóg a roinnt anseo. Céard é an dara rogha mar sin? Fan go dtí go bhfuil an t-ábhar ar fáil ar DD nó ar DVD?</p>
<p>Ach ní ceist teicneolaíochta seo ar fad dar liom. Is gá dúinn, in ionad léimt isteach ar an scéal, smaoineamh ar céard tá uainn. Tá fonn orainn éisteacht le ceol, leabhair a léamh, breathnú ar scannáin agus bogearraí áisiúla a úsáid. Tá a leithéid ann agus tá siad ar fáil go dleathach. Tá roinnt den ábhar seo agus luíonn a gcóipceart leis an duine a chruthaigh é ach tá cuid eile de agus is le comhlacht a luíonn an cóipceart. Is iadsan atá ag seasamh an fhóid i leith a gcóipceart ar son na gcruthaitheoirí agus ar ndóigh, ar maithe le leas a bhaint as an gceart céanna sin.</p>
<h1>Tionscal Faoi Stró</h1>
<p><a href="http://www.jazzontheterrace.com"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1972" title="Dublin City Jazz Orchestra" src="http://roseannesmith.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/photo-2-300x300.jpg" alt="Dublin City Jazz Orchestra" width="300" height="300" align="right" /></a>Mar sin is ceist oideachais agus moráltachta atá ann dar liom Má mhúintear go bhfuil luach ag baint le gach píosa ábhair a chruthaítear. Ach an ionann an luach a chuirtear síos do scannán nua Martin Scorsese agus céimí scannáin nó saothar Crash Ensemble agus buaiteoir X Factor? Gach seans nach gcuirfeadh formhór mór na ndaoine luach le haon cheann díobh. Sna argóintí seo freisin, bíonn an iomarca béime ar cheol: píosaí trí noiméad a d’fhéadfadh, ar lá maith, scríobh i maidin amháin, in aon uair amháin. Ach tábradaíl ar siúl ar scannáin, leabhair, bogearraí agus ar chláracha teilifíse, cnapáin chultúir a ghlacann na céadta uair an chloig ar na céadta daoine lena gcruthú. Teipfidh ar an tionscadal seo munar féidir múnla agus bealach nua a chruthú chun idirbheart an chultúir a chur i gcrích.</p>
<p>Conas gur féidir a leitheid a mhúineadh agus cé leis an “curaclam”? Thuig Tim O Reilly an cheist nuair a dúirt “Obscurity is the problem, not piracy”. Má tá saothar á chóipeáil, á íosluchtú, go dleathach nó mídleathach tá agat; is é an fhadhb is mó nuair nach bhfuil tóir ar an saothar; nuair nach bhfuil sé sa bhfaisean. Agus i gcomhthéacs cultúr an X-Factor, nach leor luach teachtaireacht téacs ar do chuid saothar? Nach “leo” siúd a vótáil ar a son buaiteoir an chomórtais?</p>
<p><a title="Read another blogpost I have written about this issue. In English :)" href="http://roseannesmith.com/2009/10/art-for-arts-sake/">Ní hé seo an chéad uair a scríobh mé faoi luach chultúir agus ealaíne </a>agus táim cinnte go dtiocfaidh mé ar ais chuige.</p>

<p><i>This is my article from BEO.ie November edition. In this I write about iOS, Android and Web apps and sites that can help you stay healthy. Perfect timing I think for anyone planning to turn over a new leaf in January. I even spoke about my recommendations below on a recent broadcast of <a href="http://www.newstalk.ie/programmes/all/splanc/" target="_blank" title="Click here to find out more in a new window">Splanc on Newstalk.</a></i><br />
&nbsp;<br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/statelibraryofnsw/3073105916/" title="Peggy Bacon in mid-air backflip, Bondi Beach, Sydney, 6/2/1937 / by Ted Hood by State Library of New South Wales collection, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3136/3073105916_1228932657_m.jpg" id="blogsy-1325626349126.916" class="" alt="Peggy Bacon in mid-air backflip, Bondi Beach, Sydney, 6/2/1937 / by Ted Hood" width="240" height="177"></a>Táim i mo shuí sa chistin agus tá an bháisteach ag síorthitim amuigh. N’fheadar an é seo an t-am is fearr chun scríobh faoi theicneolaíocht a chabhróidh leat aire a thabhairt dod’ shláinte? Níl uaim ach tine mhór the theolaí, an dá shlipéar agus m’fhallaing sheomra. Bhraithim ciontach faoin alt seo a scríobh go háirithe ó nár rith mé féin ar maidin le drochaimsir. Ach coicís ó shin bhí mé an-mhórálach asam féin ó chríochnaigh mé clár ‘Couch to 10K’. Seo clár 13 seachtain ina ritear trí uaire in aghaidh na seachtaine. Siúlfaidh tú ag an tús le giotaí reatha anois is arís ach ag an deireadh san iomlán tá tú in ann rith gan stró ar feadh 10 ciliméadar. Bhí traenálaí agam i mo phóca i rith an chláir ar fad: feidhmchláirín beag, <a href="http://felttip.com/c10k/" target="_blank" title="Check out Couch to 10k in a new window">Couch to 10K</a><br />
&nbsp;<br />
Ach in am scríofa an ailt seo, tá an aimsir go hainnis agus is deacair brú a chur ort féin aon ní a dhéanamh nuair mar sin atá sé. Ach, mar a deirim go minic, níor chóir dúinn in Éirinn go háirithe aon ní a chur ar ceal mar gheall ar chúpla braon báistí. Caithfimid coinneáil orainn!<br />
&nbsp;<br />
Sin ceann de na tréithe is tábhachtaí faoi réim shláinte nó bhia: leanúint leat &#8211; is féidir le teicneolaíocht cabhrú go mór linn é sin a dhéanamh. Má choinníonn tú taifead den obair atá curtha isteach agat freisin, is spreagadh mór an méid sin ar laethanta dona dorcha dhúluachair na bliana. Is féidir breathnú siar ar an dul chun cinn atá déanta go dtí seo. Más féidir do chuid éachtaí a roinnt le daoine eile atá den tuairim chéanna. Beidh tacaíocht agat freisin. Más féidir leat léargas a fháil ar imeachtaí lúthchleasa do chairde féin nó daoine a bhfuil meas agat orthu, gríosófar thú chun iarracht a dhéanamh tú féin.<br />
&nbsp;</p>
<h4>Beartas Sláinte</h4>
<p>&nbsp;<br />
Mar sin, lena n-áireamh, is iad beartas, taifead, spreagadh agus tacaíocht na ceithre rudaí is mó cabhair nuair atá tú ag tabhairt faoi réim shláinte. Féach nodanna eile ar shuíomh iontach an rialtais <a href="http://www.getirelandactive.ie/get-motivated/motivation-tips/" target="_blank" title="Click here tonfind out kore about Get Ireland Active in a new window">Get Ireland Active</a> &#8211; tá neart ann chun thú a ghríosadh ó eolas agus firicí faoi shláinte go cluichí liathróide is rannta. Is fiú go mór roinnt ama a chaitheamh ar an suíomh seo.<br />
&nbsp;<br />
“Ach Roseanne,” cloisim uaibh, “is colún teicneolaíochta seo, ní slí maireachtála! B’fhéidir gurb ionann an dá rud duitse ach bhí mise ag súil leis an alt sin faoi iOS5 nár scríobh tú go fóill!” Ach, a chairde, tá neart suíomhanna is feidhmchláiríní iOS is Android ann a chabhródh leat beartas agus taifead a dhéanamh agus spreagadh is tacaíocht a fháil nuair a bheas tú ag tabhairt faoi rún sláinte. B’fhéidir go mb’fhearr i bhfad an t-alt seo a scríobh do Bheo mhí Eanair nuair atá dea-mhianta na hathbhliana snasta úr ar bharr d’intinne. Ach dar liom, tá tú i bhfad níos fearr tabhairt faoi dhea-mhian ag am a oireann duit in ionad am nuair atá brú seachtrach ort é a dhéanamh.<br />
&nbsp;<br />
Seo mo rogha de fheidmhcláiríní idirlín is gutháin a chabhródh go mór le duine atá ag tabhairt faoi.</p>
<h4>&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />
Couch to 10K</h4>
<p>&nbsp;<br />
Seo an ceann ar bhain mise feidhm as, ón tolg i leith. D’éirigh liom meachan a chailleadh lena chabhair agus, ar a laghad, tomhas ghúna amháin. Thaitin sé go mór liom mar lig sé dom taifead a choinneáil, chabhraigh sé liom mo dhul chun cinn a fhorbairt de réir a chéile agus má bhí fonn orm, lig an feidhmchláirín seo dom mo dhul chun cinn a roinnt le mo chairde ar Twitter agus ar Facebook. Fuair mé an-chuid tacaíochta ó mo chairde dá bharr. Is féidir éisteacht le do cheol féin ar d’iPod le linn a bheith ag rith. Le fáil mar fheidhmchláirín iOS.<br />
&nbsp;</p>
<h4>Runkeeper.com</h4>
<p>&nbsp;<br />
Seo an suíomh atá in úsáid agam anois, tharla an Couch 10K críochnaithe agam. Anois tá an nós agam, ligfidh seo dom taifead a choimeád. Tá suíomh ann, <a href="http://www.runkeeper.com" target="_blank" title="Click here to find out more in a new wimdow">www.runkeeper.com</a>, a ligeann duit taifead a choinneáil ded’ chuid cleachtadh lúthchleasa, bealach a leagan amach roimh ré, foireann sráide a chruthú agus ranganna áitiúla a aimsiú. Chomh maith leis an suíomh iontach, is féidir RunKeeper a chur ar uirlísí iOS, Android, Windows 7 agus le déanaí Symbian (e.g. Nokia). Ar iOS is féidir éisteacht le ceol ar an iPod le linn do chleachtadh aclaíochta (seachas snámh&#8230;!)<br />
&nbsp;</p>
<h4>Nike Training Club</h4>
<p>&nbsp;<br />
Seo ceann do na mná amháin. Is sás é ó Nike ar ndóigh atá lán le gnáthaimh aclaíochta idir 15 agus 45 nóiméad. Tá físeanna le gach gnáthamh a thugann treoir duit conas gach cuid den ghnáthamh a dhéanamh. Tá treoir ann freisin faoi na huirlisí a bheidh de dhíth (liathróid leighis, mata, meacháin, tromáin lúith srl.). Tá trí léibhéal difriúla ann do thosaitheoirí, idirmheánach is don ard-lúthchleasaí. Is féidir éisteacht le do cheol féin ar an iPod le linn an bhabhta traenála agus is féidir do dhul chun cinn a roinnt ar Facebook agus má tá ballraíocht agat ar <a href="http://www.nike.com" target="_blank" title="Click here to find out more in a new window">Nike.com/NikeWomen</a>, is féidir é a roinnt ansin. Má bhíonn ballraíocht agat ann freisin, gheobhaidh tú gnáthaimh bhreise mar dhuais. Thaitníonn an feidhmchláirín seo go mór liom: tá cuma an-dheas air agus tá na gnáthaimh crua, an-chrua! An t-aon míbhuntáiste ná nach bhfuil an feidhmchláirín seo ar fáil ach don iOS.<br />
&nbsp;<br />
Chomh maith leis na feidhmchláiríní seo ar mo ghuthán, tá ceann a ligeann duit do ráta chroí a thaifead, tá feidhmchláirín eile Nike a d’fhéadfadh comhrá a dhéanamh le mo bhróga (tá slis sa sáile s’acu) agus ceann darbh ainm de <a href="http://www.moodagent.com" target="_blank" title="Click here to find out more  ina new window">MoodAgent</a> a ligeann dom líostaí ceoil a chruthú bunaithe ar an bhfonn a bheadh orm féin. Tá feidhmchláiríní ann freisin a déanann cluiche de thraenáil: féach mar shampla <a href="http://www.fitocracy.com/" target="_blank" title="Click here to fi d iut more in a new windiw">Fitocracy</a> nó <a href="http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/sixtostart/zombies-run-a-running-game-and-audio-adventure-for" target="_blank" title="Click here to find out more">Zombies Run</a>.

&nbsp;<br />
Má cheapann tú go bhfuil sé dochreidte go mbeadh do bhróga in ann teachtaireachtaí a chur chuig do ghuthán, nó chuig bunachar éigin sa néal, breathnaigh ar <a href="http://www.withings.com/" target="_blank" title="Click here to find out more in a new window">Withings</a>. Pleascfaidh d’intinn!</p>

<p>This top is the first piece of clothing I&#8217;ve crocheted for myself. It was not difficult but some aspects of the pattern were a little difficult to follow. I didn&#8217;t get much assistance from Rowan Yarn when I asked them, so the edges turned out quite wonky hence the belt. You can get all the details from <a href="http://ravel.me/enormous/c1">my project on Ravelry.</a> including yarn and links to where you can buy the pattern. You can also see how it turned out for other hookers.</p>
<p>In this picture we&#8217;re in the café of the <a title="Click here to find out more in a new window" href="http://www.royalhibernianacademy.ie/index.html" target="_blank">Royal Hibernian Academ</a>y. We were there to check out <a title="Click here to find out more" href="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=185364901543639" target="_blank">VUE</a>, the annual art fair. It was amazing to be able to see the work of so many different artists curated by so many different gallery owners. I understand that this exhibition previously took place in the RDS but the RHA strikes me as a much more pleasant venue. We were there to support my common law brother <a title="Click here to find out more" href="http://www.jorgallery.com" target="_blank">John O&#8217;Reilly</a> and my actual brother <a title="Click here to find out more in a new window" href="http://www.blaisesmith.com" target="_blank">Blaise Smith</a> of course but I have to say I was totally smitten as usual by <a title="Click here to find out more from the Molesworth Gallery" href="http://www.molesworthgallery.com/artists/Redmond%20artist%20page.html" target="_blank">Patrick Redmond&#8217;s work.</a></p>
<p>VUE is finished up but I would recommend a visit to the RHA just off Stephen&#8217;s Green where there is always someting inspirational to see in a beautiful space.</p>

<p>I&#8217;ve completed a couple of projects lately of which I am inordinately proud so please excuse my bragging for a moment.  First up is this delirious tea cosy which I made as a birthday present for <a href="http://www.abigailsong.com">Abigail</a>. <br /><a href="http://roseannesmith.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/20111026-214021.jpg"><img src="http://roseannesmith.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/20111026-214021.jpg" id="blogsy-1319664590978.9978" class="alignnone size-full" alt="20111026-214021.jpg" width="360" height="482"></a><br />I followed this <a href="http://justjen-knitsandstitches.blogspot.com/2011/03/easy-ripple-tea-cosy.html">easy pattern</a> which I originally came across on <a href="http://www.Ravelry.com">Ravelry.com</a>. The wool is mostly from <a href="http://www.springwools.com">Springwools</a> although I haggled he orange wool from a woman on Meath st. I haggled rather a lot from her so if I make something for you expect some orange in it. The beige I picked up for a song in Oxfam. The buttons were a total find in<a href="http://www.arubanesque.ie/index.php/about/"> A Rubanesque</a> which is, apparently, Ireland&#8217;s only passementerie boutique.  Yes you do learn something new every day.<br /><a href="http://roseannesmith.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/20111026-214043.jpg"><img src="http://roseannesmith.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/20111026-214043.jpg" id="blogsy-1319664591024.9626" class="alignnone size-full" alt="20111026-214043.jpg" width="360" height="482"></a></p>

<p>I had to take an afternoon off today. We&#8217;ve an unfortunate gap in our childcare arrangements. As if I don&#8217;t get enough of it in work, we&#8217;re interviewing a couple of people over the weekend. Fingers crossed we&#8217;ll have it sorted.<br />
So I&#8217;m making the most of it: we have a classmate over which, as a family with dwo parents in full time work, is a rare occurrence. While Nipper 2.0 and his chum are off building something glorious with Lego, I&#8217;m fitting in some daylight crochet. I blogged about this top before and have since ripped back the two side panels, removing the beetroot stain in the process, and redid them. It&#8217;s turning out much better this time.</p>

I had to train it up and down to Dublin so I had an opportunity to crochet like a crazy lady. Don&#8217;t tell <a href="http://themeyler.com">Himself</a> but it was one of the best parts of the holiday <img src='http://roseannesmith.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /><br />
While I was on the train I worked on this green top from a <a href="http://roseannesmith.com/2011/06/wednesday-wip-1st-june/">Rowan pattern</a>. It worked out really badly as you can see. I got stuck and asked<a title="Click here to find out more about Rowan Yarns on Twitter" href="http://twitter.com/#!/rowanyarns" target="_blank"> Rowan Yarns on Twitter</a> for help. I tried to ask them on <a title="Click here to check out Rowan Yarns Facebook page" href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Rowan-Yarns/114826272423" target="_blank">Facebook</a> but for some reason was unable to post to their wall. (Maybe Facebook has me tagged as a crotchety auld one&#8230;) Exasperated I tried to email them but could only fill out a contact form. I HATE contact forms. Website owners if you MUST have a contact form please make sure to email a copy to your user. So <em>a week later</em> I finally get a response at which point I had made the best I could of the indecipherable instructions. As you can see it turned out really well &#8211; NOT. Oh and my beetroot soup leaked on it. Disaster. So I&#8217;m going to rip that side anyway. The first time I actually make something to wear myself and it&#8217;s a complete show. Sigh.<br />

However this next item was a gem. I can&#8217;t remember where I got the pattern but you can get it <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/julie-cuff">here</a>. I made this for my friend for a significant birthday and was completely delighted with how it turned out. <a title="Click here to find out who was the lucky recipient" href="http://twitter.com/joycehickey" target="_blank">And so was she.</a> I&#8217;m glad I dragged the poor Nippers half way across town for the yarn.</p>

Thanks to my aunty for sewing the buttons on while I got ready for the party!</p>

I&#8217;m really glad I did because the yarn was wrong and I made a few rookie errors.</p>
<p><a href="http://roseannesmith.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/20110831-085804.jpg"><img id="blogsy-1314827074562.6965" class="size-full alignright" title="Wedding present for the cousin" src="http://roseannesmith.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/20110831-085804.jpg" alt="Wedding present for the cousin" width="288" height="415" align="right" /></a></p>
<p>Finally here&#8217;s an update on the blanket that I&#8217;m working on for my cousin and his new wife as a wedding present. The <a title="Click here to see how it was going" href="http://roseannesmith.com/2011/06/wednesday-wip-1st-june/">first pattern I worked on</a> did not work out. It was too finicky for a blanket, the tension was all wrong and it was turning out the wrong, wrong size. So I ditched it in favour of the <a title="Click here to get the pattern yourself" href="http://attic24.typepad.com/weblog/granny-stripe.html" target="_blank">Granny Stripe Blanket from Attic24</a>. I&#8217;ll probably make a little cushion out of the crazy squares to go with it. I hope I don&#8217;t break the wedding present rule and fail to give it to them before the first anniversary. It&#8217;s turning out well and it&#8217;s a very easy, relaxing number to do.</p>
<p>I do this though:</p>

<p>A while back I did an advanced crochet course in <a href="<a href="http://www.springwools.com">Springwools </a>. While I wouldn&#8217;t consider myself half as advanced as some of the women (and of course they were ALL women in the class) I was made very welcome indeed. I looked forward to the class every week and knowing that someone would be able to untangle any knots I got into I became more adventurous in my choice of patterns. </p>
<p>One of my classmates had a bit of an obsession with booties; converse style ones in particular. She made all sorts but recommended <a href=http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/crochet-baby-converse" target="_blank" alt="crochet baby converse pattern in a new window">this pattern in particular.</a> I have now made two pairs and this is the second below. I hope this pair actually get to the lucky child before he/ she is too bug for them. The last pair will make a nice Xmas tree decoration. Oh well.<br />
