Ravelympics 2008(0)

I’ve been trying to keep a diary of my progress and doing ok with it but am way behind with the photos to go with the posts.
Only the first post is posted so far (which explains what Ravelympics is), and I’m reminding myself that there’s plenty of time to take and post the photos but […]

What’s a week without a Jayne Hat mention?(1)

So the other day, I log into Ravelry and find a fun message from a nice lady named Beth.
Hi there, I plopped onto your profile from the Evangeline site. I have to tell you how much I like your Jayne hats. I showed my son - a Firefox/Serenity fan but NOT a knitting fan […]

Ravelympics Day #1(1)

Ravelympics is an community wide event where people are making projects within the timeframe of […]

Ahh a good night’s sleep(0)

The first one I’ve had in a while.
I’ve noticed lately that the smell from the rancid carpet left behind by the slumlord underneath the topmost layer of carpet has dissipated enough that I don’t notice it when I walk in.
Still need to finish tearing it out and then replace it with something but I’m very […]

A Design gone awry(1)

As I mentioned sometime ago in a post (as in more than a year ago), I’d gotten back into crocheting because of the dogs. Weston with his nakedness really needs sweaters plus Captain likes them too (and so did Almond - miss you girl). I officially started in summer 2004 while in PA when I […]

Desperately need to start carrying a notebook(0)

For design ideas.
Now that I’m all into knitting and really enjoying it, I keep getting design inspirations that I don’t want to forget about.
Right now I have at least 4 different ideas for fingerless glove patterns.  Two inspired by movies and it wasn’t til today that I realized the irony that the first movie was […]

Sometimes I forget(0)

that not everyone has a giant banner in their apartment featuring drag queens.

In other news, TGIF and man do I want to get pizza from Two Brothers (officially known as Stefano’s Two Guys From Italy), cast on for something new and watch dvds for the rest of the day.
Even though I haven’t finished the Grandma […]
