Finished Object

The nice thing about having a lot of stuff on the needles is that when I start finishing it I can really impress all of you with my mass production skills......right? Maybe I just impress myself.
Anywhooo here goes!
Pattern: Big Bad Baby Blanket from the book Stitch 'n' Bitch
Yarn: Berroco Comfort Chunky
Variation: two row stripes (ignore the row that is glaring back where I forgot to switch colors)
This blanket is for my friend Mindy and her soon to be here son Damien. Damien is going to spend a lot of time at the race track watching his dad race with my husband so I knew he would need a blanket that would keep him and mom warm, look good and still be easy peasy to take care of.....this blanket fits the bill.......warm squishy and soft perfect to toss on the ground when they want to play outside and perfect for snuggling with in bed.
I can't wait to meet the little guy, rumor has it he is due on my birthday!

Life in the Time of Covid

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. May the odds be ever in our favor for July. Naked Gnome, Tiny Island, Unicorn tiny cat octopus. one of my favorites fried eggs.

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...
