You are “turbo” charged.
Fast moving and classy, you get things done with
power and grace. Your expensive tastes can be
deceiving, since what you really value is
quality and efficiency. As you’re careening
around those corners in life, finishing a dozen
knitted objects each month, stop and smell the
roses. Don’t miss the beauty of process!
What kind […]

So I was all excited about telling you about my new way to exercise and knit at the same time, but of course I’m just back from the gym, where the scale says I’ve gained _more_ weight. How does that happen? (Yes, I have a rough idea how it happens.) You know I […]

I’m getting lots of knitting done today. I’m ashamed to say I sat through two drive-thrus for two different fast food restaurants today (the McDonald’s fruit and walnut salad is really good!) during lunch time so I had lots of time to work on my Silk Corset. Row 15 and counting …

So far, so good. I am up to row _10_ of my Silk Corset, and that’s great considering it was slow going and I don’t get much time to knit detailed objects. (I have lots of straight knit stitching time, though.) It looks great and I wish I wasn’t exhausted or I’d stay […]

Boy do I hate to jinx things but I had a problem with my Silk Corset and was really depressed that I just couldn’t get it together, and so I got back into Minisweater #1 yesterday (I tried it on and had to add some increase rows, which is also where I am on Minisweater […]

So much to say today! I love Tuesdays. It’s my knitting night (also known as “my only break for the week”), and for the summer my MIL is taking DL and OR to swimming lessons so I only have to deal with the baby. Today we went to Michael’s and bought beading stuff […]

My most unfavorite yarn I’ve bought recently. It is _not_ red, but burgundy and not a good color. Maybe I can make something for someone out of it.

I’m in Stitch Marker Swap 1! I’m off to Michael’s to get my supplies, but first, here’s my questionnaire:
1. Do you prefer shorter or more dangling type of markers?
I don’t have a preference, I’m sure both would have their uses.
2. Is there any kind of markers that you would absolutely NOT want to recieve?
Since I’m […]

I really wanted to post earlier but I got addicted to the Knitters Review Forums. I finally got my second star!
Today I’ve been working on my Silk Corset. I did some knitting on my walk to the dentist (remember, it’s at the mall, more multitasking!), then realized yet again that I had screwed […]
