Thank you

Your comments have been very kind. I can't wait to try Tweed on and see how it fits. But it is now 14 hours away from me, or maybe I am that far from it. Sitting here in the sunny(?) state of Florida. Belly is full of Blackened Grouper and feet are t

It's done!

Finally, one of the projects that has been in progress for a few months(?) is done. Tweed was coming down to the wire, but I got it done. Now it's wet, but all the ends are woven in and buttons are sewn on. Does it feel

Really no time

I am sitting here instead of doing laundry, but will not allow myself to shirk that duty. Just wanted to say:Thanks Sandy for the heads up on Molly. I am getting out my book now to post your note about the mistake. Fun day at work, wound 11 skeins of

What a great trip!

It was the best. Shade of the upper decks. Nice view of home plate and all the bases. No pole sitting in my line of view. Except the fact they didn't allow the knitting into the park. Fiddlesticks, um, has such lovely stuff. There I was all ready to

Someone PLEASE stop me!!

Quick not here. Please somebody knock some sense into my head. I have started yet ANOTHER project. Just what do I think I am, Superwoman? So to 'fess up to the dirty little secret. Trellis just climbed it's way into my heart and onto the needles. I c

Bagging it

Monday, 20 June 2005 10:47 A GMT-06
So what did I do this weekend? Why started another bag of course. Yes, the 1st one is still undone. But, I needed a cool and easy project while watching Elder play one of her last games of the season. (Yahoo!!) I mean, gosh I am going to miss driving

My new favorite color. Right up there with Chartruese. Love it. So I bought some clothes today and each piece is either all turquoise or has an accent of it. What is it with favorite colors anyway. Why do we like the ones we do? I mean, explain my l

Oh boy, some progress to show on Flame, um, well yes there is some progress but that's not Flame. OK, progress photo of Molly. Right again. That's a little progress, but not Molly. OK, this must be the progress photo <

Oops! I did it again

Wednesday, 15 June 2005 4:06 P GMT-06
Went and had a bunch of people over and forgot to take even one picture. What kind of a hostess am I? A busy one, I guess. And boy did we have a house full. Wonder if that many people would show up if I moved away and cam back? Probably not. We had a

I have an extra copy of the Winter 2004 Interweave Knits issue. OK, give me a good reason why I should send it to you. It's this issue.

More Molly

Monday, 13 June 2005 8:27 A GMT-06
Aren't you tired of her yet? I am getting a little weary of St st all the time, not in the round makes it even worse. Maybe it's just this yarn. I willnot work with it again. I love the colors and the flecks, but man it is just to harsh. The content

Molly Spread

Saturday, 11 June 2005 10:46 A GMT-06
And here she is, in all her spread eagle glory. That's 2" from the neckline separation there. This has been a very easy knit so far, and I doubt it will get very intricate in the near future. Perfect for the funk I

Molly me

So, Molly became the most important thing to knit yesterday. Of course it was the knit of choice while watching 4 girls bowl, Flame can be too intricate for bowling. I guess Tweed would have been a good bowler, but I wanted to get started on that Jun

Bethany

Thursday, 9 June 2005 8:04 A GMT-06
In order to be in line with the Stashbuster's line up I plan to cast on for Bethany today. I know, what about Flame, Tweed, Erin, and Parfait? Each will have their day. But I think Flame and Bethany will get the majority of the knitting time since th

Suddenly Seeking Solitude

It's getting crazy around here. My niece and nephew are over for the day and a friend stopped by with her two to lighten my closet and toy load. Yeah for friends who appreciate hand-me-downs, especially Osh Kosh ones. But now that my friend has gone

And just where have I been? All over. But the one place I didn't want to go was backwards!Yes, that is Flame after having 10 rows taken off. Seems I put in 2 rows twice. Must have been during race traffic for the Coca Cola 600. At least that's my sto

Hard to get back in the swing of things

Friday, 3 June 2005 3:12 P GMT-06
Running kids all over town leaves little time for blogging, but lots of time for knitting. I have worked on Flame exclusively for the last few days, through bowling, ball games and basketball camp. So first off here is the progress
