quickie

No time for a “real” post today but wanted to check in anyway. I am still happily :knitting: away; most of it during plane rides for Thanksgiving. I’d like to throw out a question…does anyone know of a super soft, superwash, super drape, wool (it doesn’t have to be wool, but it does need to [...]

cheese and wine…what could be better?

Our reunion with “the Brits” went very well! We always have so much fun with them. It broke my heart when they moved to England several years ago. Beccie is my “oldest” friend…really the only one I have seen on a continuous basis since high school. We always joke though that its probably for the [...]

sweater and two brits

By On November 18, 2005 · 7 Comments

I know some people aren’t wild about chunky knits. I’m telling ya though, if you need a quick knit, this is it! It took about 5 hours total including sewing up the sleeves/pits. It’s pretty boring, but I just wanted a nice comfy, baggy sweater for basic wear. And its soooooooo soft! Now [...]

BIG needles and another free pattern

By On November 17, 2005 · 3 Comments

I’ve had the link in my sidebar for a while…I guess no one looks there! Anyway, since I have to do what the cool kids do, please visit my Frappr Map. I’d love to see where everyone is from!

I started knitting a sweater last night with US size 35 needles. [...]

Fly Girl

I was a fly girl yesterday! Does anyone remember that one? I think I need to download it.
Anyway, back to flying. I have actually been thinking about the disorganization and clutter in my life for quite a while. Then Laurie recently posted about her clutter…which reminded me about something [...]

tempting the hat fates and other knit fun

By On November 15, 2005 · 5 Comments

Still no photo of Jim modeling THE sweater, so to distract you until then, some knitty news. I don’t want to jinx anything by saying for 100% sure, but I am getting two patterns published! Again because of the whole jinx thing, I’m not going to say with who (not Knitty, they rejected me, [...]

drunken cat

Oh boy…I just had to take this, didn’t I? It’s Jen’s fault.
You scored as Drunk Cat. Put down the bottle, Cheech. Sign up for some AA classes and drink a glass of water. Bars are ok once in a while, but you shouldn’t be sleeping at them.

A while back, La (:wave:hi La!) requested photographs of fall foliage. We’ve had nice fall color for a while now, in fact, it’s almost gone.

Free patterns and a handbag

By On November 10, 2005 · 5 Comments

I’m not exactly sure how exciting something should be to warrant being called “a pattern”, but I’m writing these up anyway. Two scarf patterns…just in time for holiday knitting. Both are very simple yet attractive and take just a couple nights in front of the television.

I’m still playing around with [...]
