So this weekend was quiet. It began with a dreadful bout of stomach flu and a LOT of sleeping/napping. Before the flu hit I went to the garden centre and added this lovely to my backyard — it helps screen out the neighbours (nice as they are, it can be awkward staring at each other [...]

‘What is all that jibba jabba’ you ask? Why, it’s the National Knit a Sweater in a Month 2nd annual event. I’m a joiner - even though I am in another nation altogether.
I did cheat a little, in that I had cast on for this pullover 2 days before I discovered this challenge. Here is [...]

one Helluva(n) overdue post.

Dreams.
For as long as I can remember I have vivid, complex (and sometimes serial) dreams that I recall upon waking.
In fact, some I recall for years.

That is the weather and not the knitting for once!
Good gracious. It is so d*mned hot here. Ugh. 29 freaking degrees of muggy humidity. It is totally gross. They have been calling for thundershowers and finally, finally there has been one lightning strike. It’s nearly 10 pm here and still nearly 30 degrees. Oh, oh [...]

So it was the first Long Weekend of summer (well, not technically - but it always feels like it)
I stuck around home, my cousin finished the hardwood on our stairs - oh, I should take a pic of that…coming soon! We hung out, talked ’til the wee hours, bbq’d, walked, played simultaneous Sudoku {I got [...]

I think my favourite part of Project Spectrum 2 is how far outside my comfort zone it is pushing me. During the last colour segment I tried my hand at dyeing some self striping yarn. It didn’t work out the way I had expected - but I still like it.
This time I used Eunny’s Tutorial [...]

I am hosting a contest!
This little blog is very, very close to receiving it’s 200th comment!! Let me tell you, I did not expect that to be happening - and certainly not before the end of this month…I thought maybe mid-April. But readership and/or commenting has grown over the last few weeks and the time [...]
