Getaway Friday
The final touches of packing are happening today. That's right, we are heading out to visit my kids. Woollelujah! has been packed and is ready to go. It contains a little bit of this and that - some pay attention knitting and some mindless knitting. My goal, one...
Three on Thursday, September 28
This week, just 3 things. Really. No more, no less. Thing 1: While walking last week I found these two stunning feathers. I wondered what bird they might have come from; my initial thoughts were either a hawk or an owl. Well, I was wrong on both counts. They are wild...
Unraveled Wednesday, September 27
I am really happy with how Ponchetta turned out! I am not sure the weather will cooperate to let me wear it on our trip, but I am taking it along! And, inches have been added and Nekia has been re-blocked. I am much happier with this length! As for the currently...
September Joy
There was much to be joyful about in September from cooler days to the joyful return of summer warmth! There was lots of walking and lots of knitting (but not at the same time!) There were extra-long holiday weekends and even just a plain old long weekend, so...
Sometimes Monday, September 25
…looks like the last rows of ribbing and hot cappuccino.
Fall Friday?
Summer has apparently let fall know that she is not done yet. Even though every day the signs in opposition grow exponentially! Take Boyce Mayview Park where Steve and I walk several times a week; when we were last there, the paths were clear. But now they are...
Three on Thursday, September 21
It's Thursday, and that can only mean one thing! Yup, I need to come up with three things to tell you about today! I could tell you that the process of sleeve lengthening has begun, but it hasn't. It was usurped by Nekia lengthening – that's right. I have worn Nekia...
Unraveled Wednesday, September 20
I have about 25 rows to go and Ponchetta will be done. Maybe today? Depending on how I do on my list, that is a real possibility for this afternoon! Up next for knitting? I have some finishes to queue up. Like some charity knitting, Laura Aylor's Summer Ripples, and a...
Randomly, Tuesday
Even though the weather is all summer-y here again, each day there are more red leaves on my burning bushes. It's as if they are reminding me that no matter what the thermometer says autumn is THURSDAY! You are welcome for that bit of news… There was a bit of...
Weekending
The weekend was full, there was some happy houring, some football watching, and some yard working. And, yes, there was some knitting. I have about 4 inches to go on Ponchetta...which I think will pair nicely with the Mountain of Laundry that awaits me! Happy Monday...
It’s Friday! Ready to get your knit on?
The knitting is inching along nicely. I have about 7 more inches to go on the body of Ponchetta. I finished the third season of Hinterland yesterday, which gave me about 3 inches of quality knitting time! I am not sure how much knitting time there will be this...
Three on Thursday, September 14
Think Write Thursday has faded into the sunset of summer. While this makes me the tiniest bit sad (like I am with the passing of summer) I agree with Carole that it was beginning to be too much work and not great participation! That being said, I might have had a...
Unraveled Wednesday, September 13
I have been plugging away at my Ponchetta, but I have miles to go yet. Sigh. The rows are long but it is good "sit down and watch television" knitting. I have put aside Laura Aylor's MKAL aside to get it done. Hopefully some focused knitting will have success! AND… I...
A different kind of stitching
I spent most of the day yesterday deconstructing several of Steve's old t-shirts. I am positive that starting with fabric would be much simpler but, I would be more concerned with making mistakes than I am with these shirts! And, today the task of putting them back...
Monday? Already?
The weekend seems like a blur of activity, and looking back I am wondering what the heck I got done! Lots of "stuff" not much accomplished. One thing is for certain, dark and cold Monday mornings are not the best way to start a week and, this morning seemed extra dark...
Hello Fall?
So, as I previously mentioned, it seems that Autumn turned the lights out on Summer and is here to stay. Yesterday it was incredibly chilly and today is even more so. You know, it's bundle up weather, sweater and all! And this cool weather reminds me that I have some...
The List
This week's Think Write Thursday discussion with Carole gave birth to this week's topic of discussion: We're starting to feel like this whole Think Write Thursday thing isn't going so well. Participation isn't high and it's been dropping off steadily for the last...
Unraveled Wednesday, September 6
September, oh boy. And, the weather here has been incredibly fall-like. It is almost as if someone flipped the switch on summer. Boo hoo! And, all this cool weather means I have sweaters on the brain and that's all I really want to knit! But, I have these projects I...
