The answer… none.
I’ve got one more class to prepare for and two more classes to attend before I send my students out in the cold, mean world for Spring Break. Yee-haw! I am looking forward to being all done, even though I had a particularly nice class this time around.
But I thought I [...]

To Blog or Not to Blog…

You’ll have to pardon, pretty please, my inexcusable absence. I was really hoping by the end of this weekend that I might have a little more to show than what I do. But, unfortunately, I was catching up on several years of Pride and Prejudice neglect.
Several of my friends have told me that I should [...]

Looky What I Got Today!!

I made it out of the house to do some early Saturday morning shopping with the kiddies and our last stop before nap time was to pick these up… can’t wait to start spinning this up to see what I get!

Merino roving dyed up by Cosy!! I just loved the colors and couldn’t pass this [...]

Introducing…

…the latest FO, my first project with cables…
Conquistador!!

There are quite a few mistakes, but I didn’t really fuss over them too much; this was a proof of concept hat for me, more of a swatch than anything else. I wanted to try cables, as I seem to be drawn to projects with interesting texture, and [...]

OK, so after spending so time in Illustrator last night–went to bed at 1.52 am, I’m tellin’ ya there’s a reason I named this blog it’s two am–I think I’ve figured out the stitch pattern for the hat, as well as where to stick the decreases. Instead of going with six stitches of garter and [...]

Snowman hat number–ahh geez, who’s counting–has been ripped it out again… I’m loving the colors and the butter-soft yearn is knitting up beautifully, but I just haven’t settled on the right pattern yet. The texture of stockinette and garter stitch is really doing wonderful things with the colorways, but the short repeats are making it [...]

Yup, that’s right… it’s two am. Once again, another project has me distracted, so I thought it might be apropos to send in a little post to my little spot.
Working on another snowman hat… I’m not sure if I’m going to like it or not, but it’s definitely a jumping off point for other projects. [...]

Yes, folks, I finally did it! After a month and a half of slogging through survey review sites, domain registrars, ISP’s, and gutting myself in front of the hydra that is Movable Type, I’ve found WordPress, and…
I
HAVE
A
BLOG!!
I’m really hoping between this little site’o’mine and ravelry that I can get a handle on all my various [...]
