Process...

It's what I'm trying to do right now...I'm staring down so much yarn on my dining room table that I can't even fathom the number/type/style of projects that I can make with it all.....it's all rolling thru my head so fast! Many of the yarns have been discontinued I have discovered as I whirl my way thru Ravelry just trying to get a grip on what I have in my midst...I think my mom and I are lucky that the woman had the same taste in color that we share with a little bit of the eccentric...I want to cast something on so badly but I just can't make a decision...Plus as my gaze falls upon this windfall of cashmere, silk, and some sparkly Louisa Harding, my sights wander to my stash that has been a loyal companion for years just waiting for me to knit with it and now I feel some jealousy of the new crowd that's entered the realm of my living room/yarn storage facility...I feel like I'm in open water being hunted by a woolen shark about to attack for no other reason than my indecision at this time...I have no plan for this new yarn...my old yarn all has a plan, I think that's where I'm running into trouble...I need some new patterns and some plans and then I can make my way thru this...
For now we'll be eating off of TV Trays until I can sort thru and put a plan in place and get it all stored....
wish me luck!

Knitter Down...I Repeat, We Have a Knitter Down...

It's probably not that dramatic, well maybe it is, who can say for sure....but I can say this, right now from my elbow to my wrist is some gnarly pain that was flared last night after knitting 6 rows of the Shawl...SIX ROWS and then WHAMMO! so much pain. This isn't the first day I've had this, I've actually been ignoring for a few days ...okay, I've been ignoring it for a couple weeks but this is the worst it's been...So, I've made inquiries as to which doctor to see and am waiting to hear back to make an appointment...while I wait ice packs, and copious amounts of pain meds (don't worry by copius I really mean, recommended daily dose) are being taken with the shedding of a few tears while I fondle my knitting... stay tuned...this can't possibly last forever xoxoxo c. p.s. Fati...don't worry I have a plan if this whole wrist issues blows out of control...

W.I.P

Bears Barn Owl. We had a hockey game last night and while I'm normally so wrapped up in the game that I don't have time to knit, that was not the case last night. Silvertips have had a rough go and the Red Deer Rebels really wolloped them last night. So I knit. I ate some dingleberries. Delicious. and I knit some more. I have a feeling I'll be finishing this bad boy up by tomorrow and he'll be the star of the retreat. Isn't his color wonderful?

The countdown...

The Elbow has taken things a little to far. After three cortisone shots, icing, and squeezing exercises, it's just not behaving... Tuesday I went into the MRI tube do the Doc H. Could get a good look at what's going on...wear and tear is what's going on and it's only getting worse.. I can keep getting shots of cortisone but eventually they'll stop being as effective. Surgery will be the best option. That's right. SURGERY Wanna know the worst part? Recovery can take up to five months Five Months 5 FIVE months of no knitting... . . . I'll give you a second to get up off the floor... . . . You read that again didn't you? . . . my friend MzKimba has graciously offered to take care of my stash. However I think I'll just pack it all up and store it somewhere safe till I get the all clear from Doc H. Now all this being said, I have projects that need to be completed, so I'm going to try and schedule the surgery for som
