And then there were 5….

Well, if I had one of those fancy photo software programs, I’d be able to draw arrows pointing to my dogs and make them talk through comic strip bubbles.
In the foreground, my Sam is on the right. In the background, Jessie is in the middle. The others are my mom’s dogs. Queen Mama dog [...]

You want me to pay how much?

I thought that maybe since Christmas is over and the rush of knitting 8 hours at a time is gone, I might work on one of my other projects – FOR ME!
This is a test pattern I’m working on for Karen. I started working on it waaaaayy before Christmas. But I had gauge issues. [...]

Christmas Knitting

On the left is the sock I made for my sil – the one I took to her mother’s house for Thanksgiving and the one I announced was for someone else. The sock on the right is my brother’s sock. Both socks were done in Lorna’s Laces (Georgetown and Safari) on 1US 12″ [...]

Do you see what I see?

I just discovered her here last night…. she’s been sleeping in my flower pot! Poor thing. I made her a temporary bed out of a cardboard box and beach towel. (It’s too sad to take a pic of tho.) I need to find something else to make a proper bed for her. She seemed to [...]

I am seeing some really fun names! I love the ones that are knitterly related or have back story. My friend J sent me “Gypsy” and I love it just as much as all the others I’ve seen.
I’m going to continue the contest past Christmas and possibly past New Year’s. It’s the holidays. We’re all [...]

Goodbye Old Friend

Goodbye.
My dream of recapturing the feel and smell of the ocean life by buying you was never fully realized. I only rode you three times in the 5 years I owned you. Three. Times. Why? I blame the city. No decent sidewalks, bike-riding unfriendliness and speedracers. But I did enjoy the ride through old [...]

Off Track

I’ve been away for a few days… just now trying to get myself back together.
Who knew knitting could be so stressful???? I only have 4 days to finish a Christmas project, block 5 projects, wrap ALL presents (bought and made) and somehow remember to bring dinner rolls to Christmas dinner. I warned my mother that [...]
