Check it! I’ve been hit by a Super Snazzy Seekrit Ninja!

Perfect timing for a pick-me-up, let me tell you. Let me see… we’ve got a Moose Pop (yessssssss I love Moose!) and Sour Jelly Bellys for my sweet tooth. Several super-cute yarny note cards, which will certainly get into the rotation for upcoming swaps and [...]

Doh!
Just ran out of brown (another ball ordered from knit picks 30 seconds ago). And dang my fair isle is puckery… but the top is less puckery than the bottom, so perhaps I am learning. I guess I’m hating on fair isle a little bit less..

Next on the list really should be WI Sheep and Wool, but it is going to take a bit more time to pull together my thoughts and photos (so exciting, so EXCITING)… more time than my lunch break. So instead I present you with…

Home Cure: Week 1

Welcome Back September.

Hello all, did everyone have a nice holiday weekend? I spent much of the time out to eat or knitting in the back seat of T-dub’s parent’s rental car as we zoomed around the state taking in the sights. There were cranes, there was wine and there was… oh joy of joys… custard. (Perhaps it [...]
