Yet another holiday down. Now all I have to get through is Chinese New Year (is that “observed”, I don’t know, but school is out 1/30 either way) and I’ve made it through the January holidays.
Today we went to Chuck E. Cheese and I did get a slight bit of knitting done, then to [...]
I’ve actually been able to pick up a few different projects this weekend (even with all the kids home for a 3 1/2 day weekend and BR at work the whole time), so I think I need a recap:
Katrina Rib — about 2 inches to go
Raglan Tansy Tee — more than halfway done with the [...]
Remember just a couple of days ago when I said I didn’t need any more new projects? Well, since I joined 200Socks and Sock a Month KAL, I figured I had better start some socks since they aren’t very quick. I decided right then and there, so I went to whatever I had [...]
I really need to get some sleep. I have been moving carseats around and I got very little sleep last night. Of course I’m running out to pick up OR from school and I realized that yet again I have locked my keys in my car! And I don’t have a spare at [...]
I have way more yarn than I could probably ever use. I tried to organize enough to find out how much more black Micro Spun I have and alas I think I only have one more — is 3 balls enough for a sweater ? However, I put together my bags that [...]
I got my match for Secret Pal 7! They were really quick this time, since I thought it didn’t officially start until the 13th … Anyway, the person I got hasn’t done the questionnaire yet so I don’t know if we have anything in common yet but I’m excited to find out! For my [...]
Oops … I did it again. I just can’t keep away from my LYS’ bargain bin. Today I got these great finds:
Obviously I’m addicted to Cascade Pastaza (I’m down to one pink, one purple and the remnants of the blue I was using for fingerless mitts), and this cream colored one was great, [...]
So here’s the beginning of my stashbusting sweater:
I started it Tuesday night, so I wonder if that makes me a slow knitter, average, or what. The scary thing is that I really don’t have that much Lion Brand Micro Spun, it just seemed like the thing to work with, so I guess it’s not [...]
I can’t post any photos of my recent work because of the secret nature of the project, but since the recipient will probably never read my blog, I did leave pictures in my FO section on the left. so feel free to check them out if you’re curious.
Last night I was going to [...]
I had all this long post in my head yesterday and I just didn’t make it to the computer. The reason: “New Year’s Day (Observed)”. Those damned “(Observed)” days just piss me off as a stay-at-home mom. When I was growing up I went to a Montessori school that had all the [...]
