Set The Mood Mondays, Vol. 8

Posted on February 28, 2011 by bethanyh

I am *going* to finish the entrelac hat today. It’s raining cats and dogs, and is rather cold outside, so perfect knitting weather. My kiddo spent a night at Grandpa’s this weekend and he just called to say he has … Continue reading →

Am getting a little tired of not feeling so hot so often, but am using the lack of focus to work on the almost-too-simple-to-be-enjoyable Noro thing. Have only used maybe 1/4-1/3 of the yarn, and it’s now almost 3 feet … Continue reading →

Set The Mood Monday, Vol. 7

Posted on February 21, 2011 by bethanyh

Based purely on their titles/chorus lyric, these are songs that are motivating me to finally finish some much-too-long-term-WIPs. I heh’d when thinking of these in this new way, so hopefully others will too: I’ve promised myself that—again—it’s time for finish … Continue reading →

At the apartment complex where I live, there has been a team of people working on the outside of my building for the last week. They have been banging away on the walls pretty much all day for the last … Continue reading →

Better late than never, I always say. (Probably because I’m always running late!) When you think of hits, you often think of the Billboard Top 40 or if you’re old enough to remember dirt being invented like me, you might … Continue reading →

Crossing the finish line

Posted on February 15, 2011 by bethanyh

I finished the Vogue Knitting 25th Anniversary Scarf, and sent it off the recipient, but before putting it in the mail, I took a few pictures: Have been working on an entrelac hat for a friend, and it’s really coming … Continue reading →

Set The Mood Mondays, Vol. 5

Posted on February 7, 2011 by bethanyh

Oh, woe is me. This needs to get eaten up before it goes bad, so lunch today is a massive homemade apple tart with gobs of what I call “fluff” on top. (Heavy whipping cream + sugar + meyer lemon … Continue reading →

ZZZZZzzzzzzz…

Posted on February 5, 2011 by bethanyh

Today was rough. In an effort to summon some “the sun’ll come out—tomorrow” sort of pluck, I whipped up baked potato-mashed potatoes for dinner and ate a huge bowl. Instead of summoning pluck, it was my old pal Morpheus. Promptly … Continue reading →

What’s the frequency, Kenneth?

Posted on February 4, 2011 by bethanyh

Picked up all the stitches for the buttonband on Cerai while getting an oil change yesterday. (It was a looooong oil change, clearly.) I often wonder how likely it is that people who knit from my patterns will have the … Continue reading →
