The Lost Blog Post (Or: Dyeing Yarn with Kool-Aid)

Posted in Knitting, She's Crafty, tagged , , on September 26, 2007 | 3 Comments »

My friend Abby came over on Sunday and we spent a lovely afternoon hand-dyeing yarn with Kool-Aid, and then I spent over an hour on Sunday evening uploading all the photos and writing up a lengthy blog post about it, and THEN I accidentally (and unknowingly) closed the window I was working in and lost. the. entire. post. Drrrrr.
I’ve spent the [...]

Update to my quest to design a February Baby Sweater for me:
The girls over at ZephyrStyle are now offering a little February Baby Sweater-inspired cardigan called Juliet. (!!!) I showed it to T, and he said it looked like you’d have to weigh about 2 pounds to pull it off (which I don’t, thankyouverymuch), so [...]

Um, hi, can I get this in my size?

Posted in FOs, Knitting, tagged , on September 17, 2007 | 4 Comments »

A while ago, before I even started knitting up the February Baby Sweater for my friend’s baby, I had decided that I wanted one for MYSELF. Something about it just looked so familiar.

I tried Googling to see if anyone had made this in an adult size, but I couldn’t find anything (!), so [...]

I’ve been doing more frogging than knitting lately. Both of my WIPs (Monkey socks and EZ’s February Baby Sweater) are lace-based, and I have just not had the concentration for either of them lately. So I was going to post some photos of what I had done to each of them, and how I [...]

Oh my my my did I ever need this weekend. It was crazy busy and filled with good stuff. Friday night we went out with some coworkers and met at The Sloop, one of my favorite hangouts, just because you can get a beer the size of your head…

I had originally planned on cozying in [...]

Today’s progress

Sadly, this is today’s progress. It was one of those days where we (I) thought we were going to get a TON done, and then everything ended up taking longer than expected. By the time we got up, made breakfast, called around to different Lowe’s to see if they had our panels, reserved [...]

Putting the “Labor” in Labor Day

Posted in Domesticity, House on September 2, 2007 | 1 Comment »

We were originally going to try and go camping this weekend, but we couldn’t decide where to go, and we didn’t want to fight the crowds or traffic, and then we found out from our neighbor that we could start building our fence sooner than previously expected. (I really don’t know the details…. [...]
