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 put on with my first babe over [...]

Last week was devoid of blogging. I was away for a week in for work. I think I must actually be pretty darn lucky to be sent to Canmore to work. Just one of the many perks of my job.
I almost managed to finish the sock swap socks that I started back before we went to [...]

We can’t come to the blog right now. We are on our way to Seattle to pick up something large, shiny, and fast. (No, it’s not a large, over made up hooker).
We will return next week with all sorts of photos, knitting progress (at least that is the plan) and much happiness.
See you then!

OK, so I have somewhat of a dilemma. I hate this sock.
I love the color. I hate the pattern.
I have a problem.
The problem is that this sock is the the fifth and final Ravelympics project.

Monkey is One today. I can’t believe how far she has come from when we first brought her home.
She was perfect from the first minute of being born. Easy going and snugly, but still determined and busy as hell, she makes me laugh from the moment she wakes in the morning, until the time she [...]

I left at the butt crack of dawn today with two friends to take an hour drive to Olds to take a class this morning. It was fabulous and very enlightening, but more on that in a minute. This is the conversation that TG and I had this morning:
Me: “Hi, how are the kids?”
TG: “Fine. [...]

I am trucking along on the first YOLproject and just in time too. It sounds as though the new YOL will soon be out. I am crossing my fingers that it will be a rectangle. I loves me some lacy stole goodness.
I don’t know how Make One will be able to top this shawl. Silk? [...]

So, I have decided to give up blogging for the next little while. I simply don’t have the time to continue with any real predictability or frequency. Things in my life are a little hectic and very much erratic and I am finding that between working 40+ hours per week (often much more due to [...]
