Dave and I had a fabulous time in Columbus, Ohio for the summer TNNA trade show. We talked to tons of people, fondled lots of fabulous yarn, and managed to find time for some fun along the way.
Getting there
Our flight out of southern California was on time, but early, early, early. A friend came […]
My computer’s still sick, so I’m still using the laptop. It’s sitting on the bar in the family room, and to use it I either sit on a bar stool that has no back support, or stand. Needless to say, I’ve about had it for the day. I didn’t want to leave you completely, though, […]
Sorry, no photos for you today. We got home from TNNA in Columbus at 5:30 yesterday evening, and are still recovering. It was an awesome trip. I can’t even begin to tell you how glad we are that we went. We met fabulous folks, each took a class, met fabulous folks, went to the ballgame […]
I frogged the whole second section of bees on Friday. Re-knit them on Saturday. Plus 5 rows yesterday. Overall, it’s not much forward motion, but it feels good. I’m glad I frogged those rows. I would have been irritated by the lack of symmetry forever after if I hadn’t—which is funny, as I often go […]
We returned from Mexico on Saturday the 17th. I was here for oh, a good ten minutes, then I was gone again. What, you ask, could possibly get me out of my house after being gone most of the month? Well, TNNA in San Diego, of course! I jumped in my car, and about 90 […]
I’m off my game. I’ve been away from blogging for too long. I sat down to write up a great post about our first actual, real vacation in years and years, and… nothing. Nada. El zippo.
So, where to start? How about this? We’ll start with a very basic geography lesson. When people say they […]
The good news is that I’m home. I’m not home for three days—or worse, ten minutes. I’m home until late February. It’s so nice to be here again.
The bad news is that I am still accessing the Internet through Dave’s computer. My own probably works just fine, but the UPS that it plugs into […]
I closed yesterday’s poll early, in case you were wondering. I got two wonderful suggestions from Denise (blogess, still!). I was 100% in for Diagonal Stride, a cross country skiing maneuver, before she suggested Gschnitztal, a valley near Innsbruck, Austria that is evidently popular with cross country skiers. Denise copied this down from an ad […]
I can’t believe it’s Wednesday afternoon already. Where does the time go? I’ve only time for a quick post today, but I wanted to give you something to read and look at.
Cardigan
I’ve finished knitting the West Coast Swing cardigan, sewing the seams, and weaving in the ends. Now to find a good button, and […]
I pulled Nicole out of her corner the other day, draped a cream-colored sheet over her, and had her pose for some shots with a couple of my shawls. In the Woods looks better than ever when on a proper model, instead of in front of the glass bricks, or on the table. Don’t you […]
