I just got home from knitting night. I am so close to being done with my Noro Striped Scarf, but just can’t seem to wrap it up. It has been an easy project that feels like it is taking forever! I know it would help if I would just focus and finish it, but I [...]

Tea Cozy Progress
Posted in Knitting on October 29, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Progress is being made on my Aunt’s tea cozy (yes, it resembles 1/2 of a hat, but it will be better when I get the other side done!)!! Look at all of those little cables! Who knew I would have the patience!! And I am also giving myself a pat on the back – since there [...]
Yarn & Needles

One of my favorite ways to spend a Saturday morning is going to estate sales. It’s not that I need a thing to buy….it’s just interesting seeing what the material results of someone’s life were. For sale are things that no one else in the family wanted and so they are being sold to people that will [...]
Sock Yarn!!

I am so excited I could spit! (Yes, the saying is weird and slightly gross, and I have no idea what it means, but yet I still use it! If it was good enough for Grandpa…I can use it!) I finally got to buy sock yarn today!!! I still have not ventured into the world of [...]
Falling Leaves…and a little knitting

OK, I have officially become one of “those neighbors”. The crazy lady that everyone wonders, “What is wrong with her?” I get home this evening at about 6…which means the light is getting weaker. My front yard has a lot of leaves which drives me crazy (have I mentioned that I might have a slight [...]
Sunny Productive Days

We had sun today!!! It was a beautiful day, and I did get out in the yard for some much needed fall clean up. I am not done since I have beautiful huge trees in the backyard that still have leaves to drop, but at least for this afternoon it sure did look pretty.
I was also productive inside…
I [...]
Christmas Scarves

There has the potential to be many posts titled like this, since Christmas with my extended family this year was stipulated to be “home made”. My first thought was, “Everyone gets a scarf!” I may get more creative than that, but it is a good place to start….especially with the guys!
While in Indianapolis in May my [...]
Vintage Velvet & a Vintage Yarn Cabinet

My parents came to visit this weekend which this time of year means Christmas shopping. Yes, my Mom is one of those people that likes to be done with her shopping before Thanksgiving. She also likes for my sister or I to go along to give 2nd opinions (I always wonder if this is just so she [...]
Shorter & Shorter & Colder & Colder Days

Yes, it is fall in MN, so what do I expect? The colors are pretty, the days are crisp, and I love wearing jeans and sweatshirts again! I do, however, miss the sunlight. By the time I get home from work the sun is getting lower, and if I run any errands it is definitely [...]
Great Gifts….

I, unfortunately, did not get to visit a LYS while I was in the Carolinas. HOWEVER! My good friend went to Chicago the same weekend, and visited a LYS for me! Yes, it was my birthday and she got me the best present…..
Not only did I love the fact that she got me [...]
