Pysanky. That's right, I said Pysanky

Pysanky, according to Wikipedia, is a Ukranian Easter egg, decorated using a wax- resistant Batik method. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pysanka. These are extraordinary.

I've decided to give it a shot this year. Perhaps for Easter. Not that I'm religious, but I know people who are. Blast that I didn't find this a few months ago and I could have practiced for Christmas. Sadly, I didn't, so everyone I know is getting a scarf because I already know how to knit.

I thought I was reading spanky backwards or something. A little insight into MY brain, perhaps.

very cool, but i got to go read the wiki bit to figure out what wax-resistant means.
