could I look any happier?

Probably not.
Flattering? Definitely not
But scroll down and you will find
a picture of me that can not be defined
I'm pleased as punch
not pickled at all
and all that I'm holding is a knit cashmere shawl

(this little poem was completely unplanned)

this picture is from the Yarn Harlot and you can see the full post of knitters in seattle here
could I look any happier? I'm so freaking happy with myself that my eyes are slammed shut...
Holy Lord.......Just knowing how many people follow her every day makes me giggle maniacally as I think of how many people are looking at this picture right now...Hopefully all they see is the shawl, if not then maybe they will be distracted by the cowl or the fact that my right hand is apparently flipping off a security camera, nice touch.
You can't take me anywhere.



Mom,
You're having one of those proud moments aren't you?
Oh well, at least I didn't jump over a log again.

Happy Friday
xoxo

Carmel - you look just fine. Yes your eyes are 'slammed shut' but your smile is great. It shows how excited you are. Besides like you said...everyone will be drooling over the cashmere shawl anyways! :)

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...
