no words.......

For how incredibly smitten I am with this sweater pattern........
Green is for Baby Girl Savannah due in September
Purple is for a 2 week old baby girl who, as far as I know received it today.....I am still waiting for an update and if you are a knitter and aren't there to see your knitterly gifts given, then you know that this is driving me nutty!
Red is for Baby Girl Peanut who will arrive sometime in November.
On the needles currently for Peanut (since she is my Yarn Bombing Project right now)
is Big Bad Baby Blanket from Stitch 'n' Bitch knit in Berroco Comfort Chunky. It's wonderful, it's fast, and it's machine washable. The picture isn't doing the color any favors, it's really a dark brick red.
P.S. between the time I typed this 2 days ago and now I have since finished BBB and am currently working on some more peanut size accesories along with a funny surprise for my friend Lori in Cloquet.......

happy weekend.
just think...in 6 more days my mom will be in a town and we'll on the ferry to Victoria B.C. for the weekend!

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...

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?

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
