addendum...

In a follow up to last nights post.

It may or may not be fact that I may or may not have printed out seven additional patterns to bring on my retreat this weekend.

It may or may not be possible that I'm mentally searching my stash and pairing up yarn with the theoretically printed patterns.

It may or may not be possible that I've gone off the deep end.

It may or may not be possible that I am delusional in thinking that I can finish

Malt
Ivy Trellis Socks
Watermelon Socks
Beans Hockey Sweater

and cast on

The Age of Brass and Steam
Matching hats for Bump, M and C
Ankle Socks for me
Nasturtium socks for me
Baby socks for everyone (trust me, every time I sneeze someone tells me they're pregnant, or at least, that's how it feels)

oh my

no wonder D gives me sideways looks from time to time, it's not because he's thinking 'wow, she's mine, aren't I lucky' it's probably more 'whoa... look what I got hooked up with, a big batch of crazy'

hmmm

Crazy adds spice to life

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...

Finished Object

I'm not good at keeping surprises a secret...I get so excited that I usually blow it. Well not this time... I knit this sweater for Bump and had the buttons custom madefor it by Buttons by Robin, a wonderful shop on Etsy... She used a photo of Rupert that I emailed her...Rupert is their (Bump, C & M's) family dog... I couldn't post a photo until they had received the sweater which arrived on their doorstep last night... Oh how I wish I could have been there when they got it! It turned out amazing! Pattern: Baby Sophisticate Yarn: Big tweedy Cashmere (lucky boy) Please check out Robin's shop on Etsy I know you'll find buttons you love and she does amazing work!

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?
