Padding my Stash...

In my attempt to prepare for the 2012 stash busting challenge I have felt the need to pad my stash with some yarn...you know, just in case I don't have enough. I do have enough, even if it was a 2012 sock stash busting I have enough, but just in case...
I bought 2 skeins of socks that rock lightweight (Thank you again Marcy for picking that up for me!)
6 balls of wool-ease in azalea pink for a little girls swing coat
And tonight I am replenishing my super bulky stash to make more hats...
God forbid that I actually empty a tote and use it for something else like craft supplies or race track cooking supplies...nope! Better off keeping those full of yarn lest there is a shortage like the butter shortage in Norway right now!
I've returned to the land of the living after a nasty wrestling match with a nasty virus. He had the upper hand in me yesterday morning but I finally pinned him down last evening and plan on doing a happy dance on it this evening...while buying yarn.
Happy Tuesday!
Xoxo

This isn't cheating because it's still 2011 and I just got some naturally dyed worsted wool in the mail today! LOL

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...

I have officially been working from home. Staying home.  Self-Isolating.  Safe Distancing.  For three four months.  My last day at my office was March 12.  If I look back and track how this transition has gone it's roller coaster.  But if you really want an accurate accounting of how my time has been spent These pictures sum it all up Thank you Anna Hrochavec for your amazing inspiring patterns Happy End of June.
