Fiber Friday | 7.13.18
By the time you read this, Steve will be off to his work weekend extravaganza and I will be ensconced on the sofa attacking Day 4 of the Beekeeper Cardigan Knit Along. I have roughly 5 inches to go and then the ribbing of the body as per the pattern…BUT!!! I have seen...
Three on Thursday, Insomniac Edition
Over the course of my life, I have had bouts of insomnia. Sometimes, the cause of the insomnia was easy to identify and other times I spent many a sleepless night pondering the reason of my inability to sleep. These days the cause of my sleeplessness is easily...
Unraveled Wednesday | 7.11.18
No unraveling this week, but just barely! I am making progress on my Beekeeper Cardigan, but I have had to tink back a few times when I was not paying attention and my bees got out of sync! However, today I have about 5 inches to go in the body, but I won't get any...
Tiny moments | 7.10.18
The harvest of the first cherry tomatoes truly ushers in summer. And, it looks like summer is going to go on for a good long time, if I measure it by the bumper crop of tomatoes waiting to be ripened by the sun. Even the little bees are excited! ...
Sometimes Monday… | 7.9.18
...looks ambitious! The weekend reprieve from the crazy heat was most welcome, and while the heat is returning later today, this morning is cool and lovely outside. Perfect to sit outside under the pergola and knit and that is just what I am going to do! That's...
Fiber Friday | 7.6.18
Is it just me, or does Friday feel off-kilter this week? The mid-week fourth has unsettled my inner calendar and I have spent the remainder of the week reminding myself what day it is. One good thing, the blast furnace weather seems to be taking a breather for a few...
Three on Thursday | 7.5.18
My three things today are all about routine maintenance… Thing One: I need to schedule my mammogram today. I am posting it here for some accountability because I saw my doctor last week and have an order to get it done…but have forgotten to schedule it every day since...
Unraveled Wednesday | 7.4.18
Greetings Unravelers! Summertime and the knitting is varied! That's right…when the weather gets unbearable – vary your knitting projects! On Monday I started my Knit a Beekeeper Cardigan in 4 days (okay, for my size I can take 6 days… but I think 5 days will be my...
Tuesday Things | 7.3.18
The heat is almost unbearable, which means early morning watering and weeding (and walking!) How is it that despite the heat, the weeds flourish? My thoughts have turned to Michigan this week, we booked our vacation and I really can't wait to go. And, it's days...
Sometimes Monday’s | 7.2.18
…look like the start of something new! That's right today is Day One in my attempt to knit a sweater in 4-days. But, with temperatures in the 90's, sitting inside and knitting sounds just perfect! Stay cool everyone!
Fiber Friday | 6.29.18
Happy Friday, everyone! I am remembering what a slow start spring got in these parts. However, it seems that summer is not taking a page from that book. Next week our weather forecast is calling for temps in the upper 90's all week long. Oy, summer is arriving with a...
Three on Thursday | 6.28.18
I have been trying to set aside some time each week to do some sewing. It has been so much fun and so energizing to repurpose something that did not fit into something that does! Thing one: My go to favorite is Lotta Jansdottor's Esme Tunic/Top. I love it as a top,...
Unraveled Wednesday | 6.27.18
Greetings Unravelers! The knitting is slow and steady this week and please forgive the lame photo of said slow and steady knitting. I am just over half way through the arm increases for my Vodka Lemonade. I should be a bit further, but I was distracted by the first...
Tiny Moment Tuesday | 6.26.18
One of the best things about summer are the days when you just let go and enjoy the moment and today is one of those days for me! The weather is perfect for sitting under the pergola with a very good book , some knitting, and a cuppa or two. Today might be the nicest...
Summer Weekending | 6.25.18
Is there anything better than a long summer weekend? I don't think so and we certainly made the most of it this weekend. There was a visit to our local farmers markets where we picked up some cucumbers for pickling and more strawberries to make more jam. And, yes -...
Fiber Friday | 6.22.18
Rage knitting is becoming a thing, thanks to the efforts of the current regime in the White House. That rage makes seed stitch just fly and the collar of my Vodka Lemonade is done, and I am working my way though the raglan increases. It's a good thing there is no...
Three on Thursday | 6.21.18
Welcome Summer! And, my three things today are songs that no matter what season I hear them in, I am thrown back to the warm days of summer. I also spent a few minutes creating a little Summer Songs playlist on Spotify, you are welcome to follow it! The Lovin'...
Unraveled Wednesday | 6.20.18
Greetings Unravelers! This is the week for finished objects! Yes, Eavesdrop is done! This was a great knit – a well-written pattern with video helps for those less often used knitting techniques, and the end result is a very wearable sweater with great little details....
