Knitting on the scarf/shawl has continued.  I still really love it.  I am at that awkward place where I am into the second skein of deliciousness and, having another skein in my stash, wonder if I should make it into a shawl or keep it as a scarf.  The yardage on the skeins of Sundara [...]

I am in love.  I still haven’t finished putting Ed’s sweater together.  I think I am living in this blurry, fuzzy disconnected state of menopausal hormones … so not sewn up.  I will get there…soon. Oh wait, here I am off track again. I am in love.  I finally started my new knitting project.  The [...]

Leaping lizards it’s February 29th! LOL. It’s been one of those weeks.  My blog is being slammed by spam (like 40 overnight).  I lost 6 months of digital photos (my own stupidity although I do have Backblaze so they are out there somewhere – hopefully) with a couple of clicks of the mouse.   And the [...]

It’s nice to be back! My laptop crashed (apparently some corrupt files) and I lost the ability to be online or check emails for just over a week (I am working through the pile of emails and if you haven’t heard from me, you WILL! lol).  A nice holiday on one hand but frustrating on [...]

On the home stretch with the sweater. Hurrah! The sleeves are  finished and I am now on the front.  Can’t wait to finish this puppy and move on to the next item. The benefit of focusing on one thing, particularly a sweater, means getting it done far more quickly than working on several at one [...]

I had hoped to get the sleeves done this weekend.  Life had its own plans however.  They are almost done.  Thankfully. The White Masai just didn’t hold my attention.  Good I suppose, but not my thing (or maybe not my style). So, instead I am reading V is for Vengeance by Sue Grafton (lovingly lent [...]

The knitting is progressing.  The back is done and I am well into the sleeves.  I have always had this preference to do my sleeves at the same time – that way I know they are exactly the same.  And, when they are done I will only have the front to do – yay! I [...]

The sweater is progressing.  I have almost finished the back and should have it done by tomorrow. I think I would probably have finished it by now but life continues to throw its’ hiccups my way.  Broke my toe last week and, well, it’s been a bit rough.  Things are definitely better but it did [...]

I must admit that I haven’t knit seriously for about a year and a half. I have made a couple of hats, a pair of socks but my knitting mojo seemed to have gone to Kalamazoo.  Not sure why, but over the holidays I started knitting again.  Wierd.  I kept telling myself for ages that [...]
