Ok, so DH gave me a few dollars to spend on myself (this is a bonus as I would spend money anyways, right?). So, after two seconds of thinking about what I could buy, I knew I would have to find the yarn to eventually make the Clapotis from Knitty.com.

I decided on the Baby Albert, using what I have on hand to reduce the yarn stash. I am using Bernat’s Denium in Blue. It will be soft and washable. I am having fun with it, just starting it last night and just about done with the main lower body (only 99 [...]
We interrupt this knit-a-long…

to panic over what sweater to make for a baby shower that is NEXT Thursday, the 21st. One week. Should I just whip out the 5 hour Baby Sweater over the next three days or make the Baby Albert from the Book 1: The Knit Stitch by Sally Melville?

ok, so that’s how it feels tonight with my projects-on-needles. 45 minutes and the eight row repeat done on my Cozy. Tonight was a good Cozy knitting night. Everything just clicked into place. 12 inches completed since starting it April 5. Doesn’t seem like much, but slow and steady.
The other [...]

Counting or markers…

that’s my choice for the Cozy knit-a-long. I put in a good 5 inches and then decided to try the markers every repeat. I actually felt a bit “off” with the markers, maybe relying on them more than repeating and remembering the pattern stitch repeat itself. I took the markers off and [...]

A good day, though I still feel I’m walking around in a fog. Had lunch and saw The Upside of Anger with a friend from work. Lunch was filling, the movie was cute.
Once home, I watched Bridget Jones Diary The Edge of Reason and worked on my Regia socks. Adorable movie. [...]
