Spent most of the weekend on the Ultimate Frisbee field– a two day tournament, four games Saturday, four games Sunday, and I’m beat! We came fourth, just out of the medals, which was a bit sad. I gotta say, I really love Ultimate Frisbee. The game is quick to learn– very beginner friendly. The people [...]

To Do (Would Do): Tour de Fleece
Posted in stash, to-do on June 22, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
The month of July is all about spinning for the die-hard cyclists riding the Tour and for these die-hard spinners watching it. Join in on the spinning fun with the second annual Tour de Fleece! (First spotted over on the Spunky Eclectic Blog.) I would totally join if I knew the first thing about spinning [...]
‘Bella Popular
Posted in knit, knitty on June 19, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Working on Knitty’s Isabella has me way popular. I think I get more hits because of that project than anything else. (Although the word “Ravelry” seems to be a pretty big draw too.) Which makes me feel a bit guilty because things have slowed on ‘Bella for a while. The yarn is fuzzy. I can [...]

Travel: So-Long Fair Stockholm
Posted in knit, knitty, stash, travel on June 15, 2007 | 1 Comment »
Today I bid a fond farewell to Sweden after quite an exciting and productive (both in work and in knit) trip. I leave carrying a veritable smörgåsbord of knitting fantastic-ness. There is that lovely coral wool from Sticka that I feel is destined for greatness as a luna-type shawl. And 8 skeins (OMG! There [...]
Travel: Finally! Stockholm Yarn Shops and WWKIP
Posted in kal/swap, knit, knitty, stash, travel on June 11, 2007 | 6 Comments »
This past Saturday I finally got down to business with my Stockholm yarn shop touring. I was careful not to look at my pattern to-do list before heading out, as I didn’t want to do too much damage in one day. Rather I just wanted to browse and get my bearings. Besides, there really isn’t [...]

Travel: Balloon Landings, Banana Holders and Swedish Monkeys
Posted in kal/swap, knit, knitty, travel on June 7, 2007 | 1 Comment »
Action, excitement, adventure Swedish-style!
I suppose first up must be the admission that I am still quite a failure when it comes to seeking out Swedish yarn stores. This needs to be rectified soon if I am to impress my Yarn Swap buddy with some lovely green Svensk garn. It will happen, dear friends. It will [...]
Travel: A quick update.

12:33am
Sadly the owners of the yarn store at Mariatorget are on vacation until next week, so no yarn for me… yet. Very little leisurely knitting time for me, thus far. But it’s to be expected, I suppose. I am still plugging away at the Monkeys– made it past the heel turn on the plane last [...]
