This is pretty cool – I am knitting, listening to a podcast of “KnitCast”:http://www.knitcast.com on my ‘pod. So far I listened to the first one about “knitting and biology”:http://scifiville.typepad.com/knitcast/2005/02/first_edition_o.html and then I listened to the one that was “an interview of Pam Allen”:http://scifiville.typepad.com/knitcast/2005/05/knitcast07_pam_.html the Editor of “Interweave Knits Magazine”:http://www.interweaveknits.com, which I recently subscribed to, even…

I’ve been Spoiled!
Thank you, Secret Pal! You made my day! What a haul! And a clue about my Secret Pal. Yum! Goodies for me – Chocolate, Osaka Mix, and Cookies (one package is missing, Pumpkin-Ginger cookies, I was able to taste one before DS snagged them after picking up my package for me at the P.O. and…
Sandal Socks
I’m finding these adorable, but having a time figuring out the purpose. Perhaps to protect in between the toes? Any ideas? (“pattern here”:http://www.coats.de/PDF/reg_zehenfusslingENG.pdf)

HolidaYeah! WKN
So, tomorrow/today I’ll be at “Holiday World”:http://www.holidayworld.com with the BooHopper and her Brownie troop. The forecast calls for hot, humid and a 40% chance of Thunderstorms, oh joy! We’re scoping the place (our first time there) for the family’s day there in 2 weeks. _His_ company is paying our way in and giving a company…
I’m so bad, but I feel better
So, I casted on ANOTHER project, like I _needed_ to (not). But it does feel so good to complete something! It was a quick and easy, although I am afraid to post any details, since someone might actually happen by here that I’m gifting it to – and that would ruin the surprise! And I’m…
How cool, a secret pal!
I’ve already heard from my “SP5″:http://moma.org/ecards/pickup_ecard.php?collect_code=1052582834 Secret Pal! I’ve received a couple of emails, a very cool e-card, and I’m expecting a post card in my box, too. This is such fun! I’ve also perused the blog of my recipient SP and have some ideas churning for what to send her – but I think…
Knitting Enablement Overload
So, my friend “Debbie”:http://sternski.com/debbie and I _*enable*_ eachother, on an almost daily basis, between here and Seattle, over the cyberlines. Today’s enablement? This looks so cool – it’s a “Mystery Stole Along.”:http://groups.yahoo.com/group/mysterystolealong There will be clues, the pattern, given along the way, and we all create our stole together. How cool is that? It’s a…
Where did my hair go?
So, mom, sweetheart that she is, came and picked me up yesterday and took me to get my haircut – her treat. I went nuts – temporarily insane – cuckoo. It’s short. Shorter than it’s ever been. Another sign that I’m losing it – be forewarned, if you hadn’t figured it out already. The haircut…
SP5 Questionaire
p{color:maroon;font-weight:bold}. 1. Are you a yarn snob (do you prefer higher quality and/or natural fibers)? Do you avoid Red Heart and Lion Brand? Or is it all the same to you? _I was raised on acrylics, like Red Heart, and I do use them now and then, but I have recently discovered the wild world…
