Proud Moment...

I did it.
You guys...
I DID IT.
I figured out where I was in Peerie Flooers.
I figured out my color card with wine*
I made a lot of progress last night watching Friends.

The dpn is marking where I left off four years ago and you can see how much got done last night.
Side note: I have never ever watched the final episode of Friends. I can't bring myself to do it.
Yes I know the show ended 14 years ago.
I will cry though. I will cry like no one should cry at the end of a series.
Like I cried at the series finale of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
My husband loves to tell people I cried for the whole two hours.

Back to the PF and my glorious glorious glow of accomplishment.

I finished knitting it.
I only had eight rounds to go when I set it down last night like the responsible early rising adult I strive to be in this world.

I should point out I knit at lunch again so...

It's off the needles!!!



No poof on this. I do not want to hide this crown

I'm not weaving 98% of these. I'm doing the knot & snip technique thank you Mason Dixon Knitting
 So happy Wednesday. 
I'm going to block her tonight and Friday I'll give you the full head shot. 

*wine is never advisable while doing stranded colorwork espeically when you can't remember where you were four years ago, however it did make for a nice evening.

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...

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...

Happy Birthday Mom!

I know I know, I'm a couple days early but I wanted to make sure you saw it before you sailed off to the deep blue sea... Literally. I've been thinking for a few days on what I would write for you on your birthday. How to best express just how amazing you are and how amazing it is that I got you for my mom. You've given me so much in my life that I am grateful for, that to try and put it into words would take a lifetime. I love the time we spend together. I love the way we laugh together. We've come so far and our adventures aren't over yet. I love you mom. Happy Birthday
