Knitting content. Yup. I’ve been knitting. This little thing is my latest magpie experience. It’s the Mystery Shawl Along hosted by Vicki Mikaluk. So far it’s a lovely little knit. I’ve only had to tink it back about three times. I can’t count. It’s a flaw and I’m learning to adjust, but it’s still just [...]

It is Friday, March 27th

And, to commemorate the importance of this date, we must have a party. What? You don’t know the importance of March 27th? That’s alright, I’ll tell you. In 1851 the first reported case of Europeans seeing the Yosemite valley for the first time was recorded (I’ll bite, why?). In 1625, Charles I [...]
Random Wednesday

Hello. Once again, it is time for Random Wednesday. A time when your blogging hostess (me) mentally meanders all over kingdom come. I have not taken pictures lately. I have very little to show. In fact, I have things to show, but I am suffering from a serious (but non-fatal) case of mental [...]
I think the suspense is going to kill me………………….

I ordered a pattern and downloaded it. The yarn is coming from the UK and I can’t tell you one darned thing about it!!! I’m frustrated because it’s all very exciting. That, plus the stealth knitting and I have virtually nothing to chat about.
The weekend was lovely. It was beautiful and [...]

Oh, yes. It’s Friday. It’s Friday. Another lengthy week of 5 or 8 days. Depending on your mileage. This one is greeted with great joy and shouts of profundity like “Yippee” and “Yay”. We are now officially in spring. Finally. Of course, the temps are 31F this morning, so big [...]
Planning is the easy part
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged knitting, soundtrack, spinning on March 18, 2009 | 4 Comments »
With huge spans of dull at work, I have had plenty of time to peruse Ravlery and the patterns and favorites and all kinds of stuff. It’s a time suck for me when I need a time suck. They frown at knitting at your desk around here. Go figure! Anyway, I have [...]
We may be having spring, or not

It was a beautiful weekend. In the high 50’s and low to mid 60’s. Just beautiful. I took the weekend off. OK. I did laundry and vacuumed and emptied the dishwasher and went to the library to get a book and tax forms. But, essentially, I took the weekend [...]

Spring came and went

We had 79F yesterday. Today it’s in the 40’s. I’m just a bit disappointed in Ms. Spring. It’s fine that she came for a visit, but she left without leaving a forwarding address. Rude bitch.
Oh, sure. We have some spring flowering bulbs. One last snowdrop. Some crocuses or crocii? Whatever a multitude [...]
A new week and a knitting picture
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged knitting, soundtrack on March 9, 2009 | 8 Comments »
Howdy Hi, all! Hope this finds you well and ready for the new week. I’m feigning enthusiasm and energy because I know everyone else is suffering from the time change and whining hasn’t made it better so far. Depending on who you listen to the time change will either cost us an arm [...]
