*POSTED*

As many of you saw yesterday I finally posted the pattern for the Nacho Getter's.
Not only did I post it here, I posted it on Ravelry here. So just give me a moment to continue my happy dance at seeing MY pattern under the heading 'Recently Added Patterns'...and my name listed as a designer, it feels a bit like a hoax, like i've fooled everyone into believing something that can possibly be true, but it is and it's up to me to keep it going right?
Not only that, 7 people have added it to their queue's!
I hope it's good.
It's a little piece of me that I sent out into the knitterly world not knowing for sure if it was 100% prepared but knowing that it's good enough to hold it's own in the big knitting universe. 
It's given me enough of a thrill that I'm ready to type up and post some of the other item's I've created this past year and to also begin the process of creating more wonderful things...I just have to remembe a few things;

I can do it. 
I can create it. 
I can make it take the shape I want it to have. 
I can set it free and watch how the world of knitting accepts it. 
WHeeee! 
It's an adventure, that's for sure, that comes with a mild little wrench in the gut, hoping it's good enough and that people find the joy in them that I did.

Happy Wednesday Monday (wow, clearly I have no idea what day it is)

SSYC... My First Official Yarn Crawl...

It's true... I've never actually participated in a yarn crawl or LYS tour. When I worked at So Much Yarn I had the pleasure of working the weekend of the LYS Tour but I've never done it. Well, the SSYC, South Sound Yarn Crawl covers 9 shops that aren't included for whatever reason in the Seattle LYS Tour that covers around 25 shops in the area. Maybe they're too far off the beaten path. It's not because they aren't in Seattle because there are shops way way way out of town that are included in the Seattle LYS tour. Whatever the reason, it's not important. What is important is that Mary and I both took Friday off and hit the road. I caught the 7:15 Ferry to Kingston, Arrived at Mary's about 8:00. Mary and I have the same china. Mine came from my Grandmother, her's came from her mom. Tried making friends with her fluffy dog Mae. Someday she'll come to love me, for now I'll respect her tenative personality and love her fro...

Spring Cleaning = no VK Live

I don't get a cleaning bug often. I truly dislike it. I would rather knit than scrub a toilet or polish something... But it happens that I get the urge to purge (too much listening to the Top Gun soundtrack this weekend) and when the momentum is high and lasts three days I won't fight it... I can't. Plus I probably saved at least $250.00 by not going to a knitting expo! Have you ever done a big ruthless purge on your stuff? You can learn a lot about who you are or who you have been... 1. I apparently have an affection for lined notebooks and notepads considering I've counted 17 in my living room alone. 2. I easily have 50+ knitting books on my shelf and have only knit one pattern from one of them. 3. 2011 I was a grumpy snot at Christmas. So grumpy I didn't even open any Christmas cards. I didn't thrown them out either apparently... I'll open them later today. 4. My sister-in-law M gives me some pretty awesome gifts. Funny notebooks (o...

quirks, questions, and things best remembered......

1. Two bads never ever equal a better. 2. Muffins or Cupcakes I will always eat the top last. D thought it would be funny one time to teach me a lesson regarding this little nuance of my behavior, so at a party he sees my cupcake top sitting on my plate and he walks by and quick stuffs it in his mouth. He said it was to teach me a lesson, but I think we all know who learned a lesson that night. 3. While it is always to have good oral hygiene habits for both man and beast alike I would like to strongly caution you against keeping the beasts tooth paste next to your own toothpaste. Trust me when I say the beast will get much more enjoyment from your toothpaste gracing his brushes bristles than you will trying to do a massive mouthwash flush of poultry flavored peppermint paste. Learn from my mistake...... 4. I always feel sorry for people who I either happen to be talking to or emailing at the moment my medication kicks in. It can't be fun, but you all are such good sports about it. ...
