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 :)

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. ...
