I still have a box of jars to wash, yuck. Then the lids, ah the lids, how I hate to wash thee. So instead I spun a little, you know mixing things up from the knitting groove: Is that not fantastically yummy? I’m spinning it pretty thin so I can ply it together and still …

Frogged
Okay I frogged it (knit speak for ripping it back, in this case all the way). Sciarrino came over last night and when I told her that I was bravely going to knit on she mentioned knitting the net row on a long cord just to check things out. I did and then put it …
It was awesome, and pregnancy is crazy
Sciarrino-nator and I went to the X-Files movie. Sigh I love Mulder and Scully. No spoilers, no worries, but I loved it. I love going to opening night things with other people really excited because when something happens everyone gets it and the reaction is great. We made these shirts for ever ago. When I …
Casting off, casting on
Projects finished: Cutie baby pants (Ravelry Link), that make up the rest of the cute little outfit: Oh my goodness I can’t wait to see my baby! I don’t know what I’m more excited for, dressing the baby, nursing the baby, holding the baby and never putting it down?!?! So much to do when the …
Love it
Feeling pretty good today since I finally got a haircut. My hair has been brushing the top of my shoulders for weeks now, nasty ends, the works. But of course I had to go and sleep through my first hair appointment last week, so today was the first day I could get in. I felt …
Camping… with bathroom nearby
This weekend Bj and I headed up to Zig Zag (on the way up to Government Camp/Mt. Hood). Can you even believe I’ve never been up there before? Maybe my parent’s took me when I was small, but I don’t remember. We always had a cabin at Black Butte, so we went that direction (east) …
Baby project updates
I finished the lovely little sweater just now. Knit most of it up over the weekend. I love it! I have all kinds of tricks up my sleeve now for attaching those sleeves (read all about it on Ravelry). I have to make the little shorts that go with it now. I just finished putting …
Birthday Fun
V turned two recently and had a fabulous little party. So cute with little girls running around in party clothes. They played with chalk and bubbles, and ran around and ate mini cupcakes. It was brilliant. Here is the little birthday girl: My little god-daughter just melts my heart. I know the baby in my …
Found!
Color me happy. Thanks for the tips ladies. I found these at a Rite Aid up in Washington (we’re visiting Bj’s parents). They had two more flavors but these were my favorite. Here is a note about this stuff: you can smell rank, put this on and the moisture and smell is gone, it’s fantastic …
Baby Knits!
Okay so the baby doesn’t knit, but I am knitting for the baby. And have just a few frustrations. I got one of those worked out last night (not being able to find the right yarn), and finished this: It’s a little papoose. That is 48 inches of stockinette people – mo-not-on-ous! But easy, and …
