Well, maybe not on Monday, as all I really did today was go to my weekly counseling session, work all day at the shop, and then come home and chill on the couch for awhile. I’ve pulled myself off of said furniture because I cannot stand any more of “Kell on Earth” (I tried [...]
One thing I always say is that I’m not going to get caught up in the whole “MUST…….KNIT…..FOR……CHRISTMAS” nonsense. I see too many customers at the shop freaking out about hitting specific deadlines for the holidays and really losing their sh#t about being behind schedule.
And low and behold, this year I took [...]
I’ve had a busy couple of weeks in these parts, between my parents visiting for Thanksgiving (they stayed a week–it was an amazing visit and I was sad to see them leave, even after that duration), my continuing to settle into my new place, and the goings-on at ThreadBear. It’s been fun getting settled [...]
I have much to be thankful for, but since I’m trying to “keep it light” over here, I’ll recap that over at my personal blog. Suffice to say that I’m looking forward to an amazing year in 2010, as the latter months of 2009 have been months of change–lots of good change.
Speaking of [...]
Yup–lots has happened since we were last together, two weeks ago. Much of it is recapped over at my personal blog, so if you’re interested, head over there. This blog is for fun and games and other happy stuff.
What makes me happy? This, without question
Yup–that’s a photo of Sabrina (ThreadBear store manager), [...]
like one of those statues from my childhood…….the little guy standing with his arms WIDE apart…..THIS MUCH! Yes, that’s how much I love what I do. And then some.
Today (well, Thursday) was a l-o-n-g day. I got up without an alarm around 7:30 a.m., putzed around my room for about 30 minutes [...]
I’ve been focusing on garments of late, which means I haven’t been doing much in the way of sock knitting. That stinks! I love making socks, and they’re my “go to” project for car knitting, bank line knitting, reading blogs knitting, and more. I did finish a sock a couple weeks ago
made [...]
best laid plans, yadda yadda……yesterday went into the dumper faster than any I’ve seen before. It was a Tuesday, which implies a day off–but other things got in the way and prevented that, for the most part. Details to follow here, as soon as I’m ready to reveal some of the big changes [...]
Since I intended to post this on Thursday, right before starting the project (it’s now Tuesday), I’ll date it Thursday just to keep the structure and order of the posts in line with what I intended.
There’s a new project on the scene, and it involves this
That’s two skeins of Prism Merino Mia, one each of [...]
The photo shoot for this post was held this morning, around 7:30 a.m., with the sun streaming in the southern-exposure windows (that’s the river side of the house, if you’re keeping track). The glimmer/shimmer off the river was amazing at that hour, and it made an interesting pattern on a couple of the shots [...]
