Things

Thursday, January 17, 2008

I have two finishes to show you (Sizzle and Garden Party), but no pictures of either of them yet. I overslept this morning, and am way, way behind on all the things I need to do. So… just a couple of things that I’ve been collecting to share with you.
I now have a blogiversary […]

A is for…

Wednesday, January 16, 2008

When I saw that the ABC Along had been revived, and that I was in time to get in at the beginning, I had to join. I loved watching everyone play along a couple years ago—has it really been that long?—and it looked like fun to do, so here I am. At “A.”
“A” is for […]

O.M.G.

Monday, January 14, 2008

Okay. That was fun. Way fun. Lots of fun. Did I say it was fun?
Kristie and I had such a marvelous time at TNNA that I can’t even begin to tell you how much fun we had. We talked to tons of fabulous people such as Kaffe Fassett, Cookie A., Kaffe Fassett, Kristin Nicholas, […]

When is a corner not a corner?

When it’s a curve.

I don’t know at this point whether to leave the “corner” like that, or to rip it back to my lifeline and go back to the drawing board.
If the bottom “corner” is a curve, is it still a triangular shawl? Hm.
I was a very bad girl yesterday. I bought yarn. […]

Patterns

Tuesday, January 8, 2008

I’ve changed the links on all my pattern pages so that payment goes directly through PayPal, and avoids the download service. They were about to start charging me a ton of money to provide that service, and I couldn’t have that. I have other plans. In the meantime, I’ll email patterns out to you when […]

Border mania

Monday, January 7, 2008

Somehow the weekend got away from me—like that’s never happened before—and I didn’t get nearly as much knitting done as I wanted to. The border is coming along splendidly, though I do wish I’d been able to get more time in on it. I really wanted to be farther by now. I’m quite happy with […]

Excitement reigns

Thursday, January 3, 2008

They came today. The printed copies of the three patterns that will show up over at The Loopy Ewe.

Those of you who requested it will be getting your wish sometime next week: you’ll be able to get paper patterns from Sheri. The patterns are all stuffed into their sleeves; they’re ready to go.
I […]

Oddly shaped

Wednesday, January 2, 2008

Some of my swatches—honestly, this actually applies to most of my swatches—turn out to be shaped rather oddly.
I spent rather a lot of time yesterday knitting swatches, and trying to figure out what to do next. Mostly I knit half way through something then I’d pull it out. This one got a little farther. […]
