I’ve joined the Mystery Sock group at Ravelry.
I am knitting like a fiend while watching Seasons 1&2 of Battlestar Galactica. I’m so glad I didn’t watch this live and don’t have to wait! It’s amazing to see local places showing up – Gaius Baltar’s beach house is not far from where we camp each year [...]

so I didn’t get makeup on yesterday so…no Dress Code pic. Sorry. I am not a woman of my word – but most of you already know that.

Yes, it is Summer!

I knit. I managed 7 colour repeats on [...]

That brings my total loss to 19.8 lbs – boo ya!
So I have 10.2 to go to make my July goal — is it strange that I don’t remember if my goal was for the [...]

I am hoping for a quiet weekend – and so far the rainy weather is helping! I would like to do some more spinning – I did a little this afternoon. Enough to knit up a square for Rebuilding Greensburg. What do you think? My first ever hand spun yarn. Boy, do I have [...]

Sooo I really let things fall by the wayside while I was away. Yes, yes we walked nearly everywhere for most of each day but…not enough to counterbalance the food choices I was making.
But oh was it yummy! We had Thai, Dim Sum, Vietnamese (oh the Iced Coffee!! – not many calories in that condensed [...]

For someone who has never knit lace, used laceweight, or even imagined knitting lace I have started buying laceweight!
And there just so happens to be a little lace stole in my new book – just the right size project for the skein my KTC swap partner sent me.
Check out the closeup on this inky blue [...]
