I am currently in the process of trying to pare down my WIP’s. See, every so often, something comes over me and I realize that my start-itis has gotten way out of hand and I have so many projects on the needles that I can’t keep them all straight. So, I start working on the [...]

On Stashing
Posted in Uncategorized on October 26, 2008 | 3 Comments »
Send Knitters, my stash is getting out of hand! It’s coming out of it’s boxes: It’s in baskets: It’s in bins: It’s on TG’s desk: It’s even in the freezer: So, I have put myself and my yarn on a diet. I have wanted to lose the last 20 lbs of baby weight that I [...]
On Rhinebeck (Ok, Not Really)
Posted in FO's, project photos, Rhinebeck, Scarf, Socks, Travel on October 24, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Wow, so I really screwed the pooch messed up and forgot to take any pictures of Rhinebeck. I have pictures of New York, Brooklyn, New Jersey, and even Woodstock, but no pictures, what so ever of Rhinebeck. I think at that point, I was just plain delirious and perhaps a little high on wool fumes [...]

We came, we conquered, and now we are all sleeping. Next post, upstate NY, Rhinebeck and yarn!

Posted in Bunny, Life, Musings on October 14, 2008 | 2 Comments »
Tonight, I took Bunny with me to the polling station so I could a) vote and b) take her through the democratic process. When we went to the polling station, which coincidentally, was her school. She first gave me crap for parking in the teacher’s parking lot. Apparently, even though it was 7:20 PM and [...]
On Being Prepared

I am getting close to being finished a number of projects; the simple Malabrigo 2×2 rib scarf, my Olive Branch Yoga hoodie, and now, the Go With the Flow socks that I started at the beginning of September. Of course, this leaves me with the ultimate knitters dilemma; what to knit on the [...]
Connections

I found a new blog today. I don’t know about you, but I don’t add many new blogs to my blog reader very often. I very jealously guard my blog roll and since I have precious little time to myself these days, the adding of a new blog must be carefully thought out. Ok, now [...]
Match-y Match-y

Look what jumped onto my needles. Now that the Malabrigo Mitts are done, I decided that I needed a matching scarf to keep me warm (and stylish) this winter. Truth be told, this scarf, although simple, has been a serious pain in my butt. I actually cast on for it 4 times, [...]

The Malabrigo mittens are finished. They took about 3 days and are the perfect blend of style and function. Pattern: Jack-in-the-Box Mitts by Robin Melanson from Knitting New Mittens and Gloves Yarn: Malabrigo Worsted in Alpine Pearl (these took just under one skein) Needles: US size 6 for the cuff and size 7 for the rest [...]
