The 'To-Do' list...

and by 'to-do' list I mean 'to-knit' list.

I'm really really trying to get on track with this list and stay deeply focused.
It has helped that I have successfully removed all yarn from the living room and into Mr. Brown's Yarn shop on the second floor. Except for the fact that I went in there the other day with a shopping bag and loaded up.

Currently in the sidelines to be finished
1. Ledge Trail Vest
2. Twiggy for me
3. 70 Yard Mitt for my other hand Finished those bad boys last night!

this is what happens when you use the 10s burst hands free option on your iphone and you're holding said phone with your chinny chin chin.


On the List:
1. Twiggy for a Christmas gift
2. Iris the Gourmet Monster but since it's for a boy I'm calling it Orvil.
3. Great White Shart Shark
4. Bosco - for me
5. Stillhouse Vest - for me
6. Woodsy - for me
7. Three Seahawk themed hats as gifts.
8. Gifts for friends...

and on
and on
and on

If you follow America's Knitting on Ravelry, or me on Instagram then you know that the 2015 Edition of the 24+ days of knitting is coming.

24+ DAYS OF KNITTING IS COMING!

I have this so organized and laid out this year. I've already chosen most of the patterns, made a big list, then I put them on the calendar. Now all I have to do is remember to bring the calendar with me when I'm on the road so I don't leave you all hanging

I'm pretty stoked! I'm going to bring The second Twiggy Sweater on Saturday and probably yarn for the slew of 70 yard mitts I need to make :)

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?

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...

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
