You really do have wonderful children. :)
Wonders.
This spring break is full of lose schedules, visiting with friends & family, and small wonders. I spent one whole morning whipping up four of JC Handmade's Kidlet Totesfor a few of the vacant door knobs in our house. True to the pattern's claim, they are quick, fun, and turn out a won...
It's a beautiful pattern! Yours are very lovely!
I Am Sometimes A Slacker
i try to live by society's rules. you know. i don't intentionally break the law (well except for the speeding ... BUT COME ON! does anyone drive 65 mph on the mass pike? ). i pay my bills on time. I DON'T LIVE ABOVE MY MEANS -- (ie. i didn't buy a house i couldn't afford or i didn't take o...
Oh no! I'm so sorry!
Sad News
I "met" Jenn a few years ago, early in my blogging life. She was kind and sweet and we figured out early on that we lived maybe at most a couple of miles from each other. but we never met. i wasn't meeting people back then (heh), and i think that she was maybe just a little shy. She also li...
Beautiful! We went skiing on Weds and I was absolutely giddy that it was still light out at 5:30pm when we were skiing. Love it!
Eye Candy Friday
check it out. this shot was taken at 4:50 pm yesterday. i was out of work and the sun was still out! how awesome is that? ************************** day 293 -- dear friday, please hurry up.
Very nice colors!
Here's Sock Number Seven
started with noro kureyon sock. ************************** day 292 -- god it was cold today. brrr. but word is it should be 50 degrees on sunday!
Those are really nice. I love finding a pattern that you can just work over and over again.
Three Pairs Done
another pair of 2x2 rib socks are done. this time, i used a really beautiful color of Trekking XXL. this is my first pair of trekking socks and certainly not my last. i like how springy (not as in the season) and solid they feel. and the variegation made these fun to knit. and yes, i kno...
You're going to have so much fun with it! I loves loves loves mine!
I Was A Very Good Girl
so what was i doing at the mall yesterday? i was buying this. heh heh. in early december i became eligible for an equipment upgrade from AT&T and for my birthday J made a generous contribution to the "iphone fund." so yesterday, i finally went and got it. i'm still getting acquainted, but...
That is so cool!
Eye Candy Friday
the building where i work a couple days a week forms these crazy looking shadows on the building next to it. to me they look like chromosomes. most of the building houses laboratory space so i thought it was a very cool design feature. but apparently it's just a coincidence. i find that ...
Thanks for the peek into your crafting space! I always like to see how everyone's space looks like!
My Favorite Room
my craft room/office is my favorite room in the house. it's my room. with all of my favorite stuff. and i seriously would never leave it if it had a tv. and except for the computer cords and modems and routers under the desk, all of the mess is my mess. there are no power tools, model he...
I love Ikea! Where's the photo?!!
One Hundred and Nineteen Gallons of Yarn
today i went to ikea for the 2nd time in my life. the first time i went was shortly after it had opened and i made the fatal error of going with j. he was pissed off before we even entered the store, so that visit didn't last long and i came home empty handed. today i met a friend there and we...
What the heck?! I've never seen wild turkeys before!
Why Did the Turkeys Cross the Road?
to scare the bejesus out of me. this morning, i was driving along, taking a shortcut through the backroads to avoid traffic on the masspike when all of a sudden, out of nowhere, were a bunch of turkeys! i had seen these guys before at a distance, but this was the first time i'd seen them up c...
It was such a fantastic day!
Welcome President Obama
i was going to try and write something profound about today's inauguration activities and what this new president means to me, but my words felt insignificant and weren't even coming close to expressing what i'm feeling. because it's more than having a new person in the white house whose politic...
I wish you could teach me!
A Lovely Saturday
it didn't take much coaxing on carole's part for me to offer to give her a crochet lesson. in fact, she might have just said something about wanting to learn when i offered to drive to her house to teach her. see, going to carole's is like getting a hug. she has a lovely family and a warm and...
That is beautiful! Glad you were able to fix that hole. I cant believe how nice the sweater still looks after all this time.
MOTHS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
nothing strikes fear in the hearts of a knitter/wool lover than these four little letters -- M-O-T-H. scary isn't it. (although not nearly as scary as after starting your car to warm it up, while walking back into the house, hearing what sounds like your car rolling down the driveway -- now tha...
I'm totally about the 2x2 rib too. Great sock!
Another Sock
i seem to want to knit nothing but socks these days. the pattern is essentially the same as the pair from the other day, while still accounting for gauge. i've got 2x2 rib fever. some knitters don't like to knit a pattern more than once, but i'm not one of those knitters. i like to see how...
BTW - I can't figure out how you got my little picture to pop up in the notes in typepad. Where do I configure that? Thanks!
A Promise Kept
so yesterday i promised a picture of a pair of finished socks ... here you go. a pair of brand new hand knit socks AND a cat tail. can't say that i don't deliver. these are simple 2x2 ribbed socks that i improvised. the yarn is dkknits' technocolor dream toes which you can find on etsy he...
