Unravelling a Story

      No Comments on Unravelling a Story

I’ve gotten stuck into the first pair of socks made with my holiday-purchased wool. It’s King Cole Zig Zag, but I forgot what colourway and can’t find where I put the ball band… found it! The colour was Wacky, and was discontinued. But at least I found a picture of how it’ll probably look once it knits up, and I’m… Read more »

Gettin’ Fancy

      No Comments on Gettin’ Fancy

I have swung back around to a Sims 3 legacy for the moment. I’m amused because I am working harder than usual to get the colours to be decor-y. I know that this picture doesn’t give much in the way of details, but yanno, s’fine. I know it isn’t a patch on bat’s efforts; I’m legit patting myself on the back… Read more »

The Circle

      2 Comments on The Circle

I had my dear friend Keo as my chat companion most of this morning. We were talking knitting, and I was going off on random tangents about knitting in the round and how not scary it actually is. Of course, my pictures like this one, meant to be soothing, probably did more to vex than not, ha ha. But it’s… Read more »

Autumn Skies

      No Comments on Autumn Skies

The skies today were gorgeously overcast… if only the temperature itself had been in the same arena. But never mind, the cool will return before I know it, and it was lovely to walk around and look at. Otherwise, I’ve just been chilling and knitting. The current project I’m working on I had on a circular, but I ended up… Read more »

Woo Hoo!

      No Comments on Woo Hoo!

I was checking my email earlier, and was confused by the line: Etsy Order confirmation for:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Yeah, it’s been a bit since I’ve had an order, ha ha. I’ve been trying to remember to be active on my relevant FB page to remind people I still exist, but that doesn’t seem to be doing much to drum up business. Still,… Read more »

Meh, Okay

      No Comments on Meh, Okay

I got slammed by the dizzies this morning. Considering that my state of existence was commented on Thursday night, perhaps I’m coming down with a little something. I do know that when we were Skyping with my sister I was quieter than I normally am, but. Words. Not really forthcoming, heh. It was nice to catch up; like she said,… Read more »

Cold Toesies

      No Comments on Cold Toesies

This morning was chilly enough that I wrapped myself up in my blankie to keep my toesies warm — bliss. I swear, my smile and happiness as the weather makes its way to enjoyable is gonna break my face in half. It’s supposed to warm up again next week, but we’ll see. I can get through it knowing that proper… Read more »

En-gauge-ing

I know, I know, I’m fired because that is the worst. xD But as this is the first of my holiday wool socks, I wanted to make the effort to vaguely gauge it. I’ve got a project in front of it, but it’s a quick knit, and since it’s knitting tonight, I wanted to make very sure that I had… Read more »

It’s Waiting

      No Comments on It’s Waiting

We had to take Smalls to the hospital today to get blood drawn. She was a total champ, especially considering that it was a fasting blood test and she was getting hangry (I really hate the word ‘hangry’, but it totally fills a place in modern language). Wandering around the hospital makes for great creepy photo fodder, and this one… Read more »

Ouch

      No Comments on Ouch

I can’t pin it down yet, but I’ve been rocking chronic headaches lately. I think I might be sleeping in a funny position; I’m basing this on the fact that I have neck pain as well. I’m trying to get by as best I can, but like… I’m super-sensitive to sound at the best of times. This is not the… Read more »
