Yesterday was the single best day I’ve had in… ages. Start to finish, it was a marvelous day. Thank you one and all for your birthday wishes! They mean the world to me.
Lunch with the Monday night crowd was tons of fun. And yummy! We went to El Cholo in La Habra. The food […]
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 […]
Site move
You may have noticed the complete absence of my blog and/or pattern shop over the last few days. It’s because we moved to a new server, and as the way of such things, our new location takes a bit to trickle through the Internet at large. My other pages are moving today, well, the […]
Yup. Again. Yes, I removed the green background from both sidebars. There’s a light green line now between the left-most sidebar and the posts. I might make it a little darker. I tried having it the same color as the green text, but that was too much. Much too much.
I found new gallery software, […]
It’s 0:dark-30, and we were just serenaded by our neighborhood pack of coyotes. They went on for a couple of minutes tonight. Wonder what set them off tonight. They probably caught something. It’s funny. Living in the midst of literally millions of people, how common coyotes are in certain neighborhoods. Like mine. It’s a tiny […]
I’ve been knitting furiously on the red shawl for Karen. I only have 24 more rows to knit before I bind off, and get to block the finished shawl. We’ll see how far I get today. It’s possible this thing will be blocking by the weekend. Woot! I’ve been having such fun knitting this that […]
I don’t have any progress pictures for you, as it’s the middle of the night, and much, much too dark for photo taking. Rest assured that good progress is being made on the shawl for Karen. I had a bit of a glitch yesterday, forgot to put two beads on it. I ended up tinking […]
I’ve been a sock-knitting maniac lately. Got the gusset done on the second (still nameless) sock yesterday, and a bit more besides. I’m going to be so glad to have these socks done. They’ve been a thorn in my side since I first cast on in what? Early March? Ugh.
The first sock is a […]
Tilt
While waiting for the second ball of black Malabrigo Lace to arrive, I’ve so far made good progress on the brown sock. It’s going well. The sock has even decided on a name for itself: Tilt.
Yup. It’s the same stitch pattern I tried to use with the Figgy Pudding yarn, but we all know […]
The day started fine. Early. Too stupid early, but fine nonetheless. I had my day all planned out. Everything was going along just fine. Took my shower. All nice and clean. Started to clean out my ears, best time to get the guck out is when the ears are warm and damp. Pulled the cotton […]
