…inch by inch… It’s rare that I post daily progress like this – I’m usually doing about 12 projects at a time (no joke) so I don’t spend a lot of time monitoring my progress on an individual piece. However, this one is different. Yes, it’s for editorial, but I’m loving working it up SO…

I knit weird and I enjoy showing others how to find the joy and intuitiveness within their OWN knitting!
We don't knit to make THINGS, we knit to make OURSELVES HAPPY!
Teensy, tiny, needles… Yes, I know that many of you work on quad-oughts (0000’s) needles, but I seldom ramble far below a US 5. Here I am doing an entire CARDIGAN on size 3’s (3-1/4mm) and it’s making me slightly nuts. Lots of colorwork. Here’s a shot of the start (I did this last night)…
Blackout Did you ever have one of those mornings when you wake up and think, ‘This is going to be a nice, slow day – no deadlines today, no places I must be – this is a day for me…’ Then you get out of bed and remember that you’re a mom? When I went…
Bamboo As some of you who read this blog know, I’ve been a little obsessed with bamboo lately. Not the needles, the fiber. I acquired some at Habu Textiles in NYC a few months ago and it’s been sitting in my odds and ends box waiting for me to come up with something. Well, I…
Lost Tooth! Well, it was inevitable. My little baby girl has lost her baby tooth and is not a baby anymore. She’s actually a little older than most of her friends who’ve already lost teeth, but in some way it’s too soon for me. A little montage of my toothless girlie… The Tooth Fairy left…
Race I’m not much for the reality shows – although I do appreciate a good Survivor episode. But one show I really do like is the Amazing Race (didn’t it use to be called the Great Race?) I like the editing, I like the pace, and I like the idea of running around the world…
It shouldn’t bother me… But it does. I’m a small person. Well, not a small person – you know what I mean… I got the Stitches catalog today – Stitches East in Atlantic City. New Jersey. (Hey – I’m from Jersey! Exit 14) It still stings a bit to be told that I don’t have…
Oh, the things we do for… Kids… Here I’ve spent 20 minutes figuring this out. My son, happily, loves it. He thinks it looks like a truck, though. Here’s a train for my little boy… MAXIE [__]~[__]~[__] ..∫∫…∫∫….∫∫.. Burn, baby, burn!
Gentlemen, Start Your Arks! Have we set a record for rainfall, or is it just me? Home today – getting some work done – got a bunch of submissions prepared and sent out to a mag, THAT’S a load off of my schedule. I’m thinking of submitting an idea to this – que pense? Yesterday…
… find me a find… Well, isn’t THIS just the coolest thing since sliced bread! Burn, baby, burn!
