Aran Knitting Tutorial

Not a full blown one, just more a quick hit.In my effort to get rid of some UFOs that have been hanging around I have picked up Celtic Dreams again. I am 7 rows from being done with the front and then I will pick up for the back.Here's the progre

Chart Smarts

Saturday, 24 February 2007 3:10 P GMT-06
Having spent my previous lives doing cross-stitch, needlepoint and canvas work (not always the same as needlepoint), I am very into charts. It was natural to proceed to charts in knitting. It's really all the same. But there are some differences,

What a few days this has been

No knitting has taken place since? I guess I have done some on the Moebius, but it doesn't show. And it's boring! Seed St over 320 sts. Come on, what's fun about that. Oh well, I know it will be lovely when finished. OK, so what do I want

What a trip

It was a great time. We stopped Wed night in Tifton GA, just couldn't go any further. The girls wanted to swim, but why waste time? We got to Daytona by 10:30 the next morning. Smooth sailing all the way. The first thing the girls did was get the

I'm back!

The race didn't finish as I would have liked. In fact, I hate Kevin Harvick more than ever. But I dislike NASCAR even more. Come on! Stick with the rules or throw them out! That's all I will say. OH, and when Harvick was declared the winner,

Oh my aching hands

I have been knitting too much. Or maybe holding a book in a set position for too long. Or gripping a steering wheel too much. Oh wait, Hubster drove all the way down. I just drove all over town today. We needed to look for some furniture to replace s

Oh Great!

Due to the change in plans we ended up leaving town at noon. Even though the $28.00 needle was in Evansville's Fed Ex location by 9:00 am, it was not going to make it to my house in time to head south. So I left the Moebius at home. I grabbed Kir

What do I do now?

It's coming! And UFO Challenge for Feb

Our return to the circuit is close at hand. The excitement is building. Hopefully my driver will be running all the races we will be at. But I know Talladega is not his favorite, so I doubt he will run there. No problem, we have other favorites to ch

Reality Blogging

It's all real, all the time here. But sometimes reality bites. The truth of the matter is, just because Hubster had his stomach bug 8 days ago, it doesn't mean you can't get it 7 days later. I guess germs know no time limit. I was brought

Birthdays?

We have 2 to celebrate this weekend. My cousin's have 2 lovely daughters who will be getting a year older this month. Both were preemies, but you would never know it to see them now. As a close "knit" family we all take part in the welc

Did you really think I would shut up for long?

Can't keep a good Diva down!

Somebody shut me up!
