An evening off.
I don’t do this often enough: I tend to do my knitting at the same time as other things (watching TV) or at the very end of the day. But this evening, I’m going to designate myself an official Evening … finish reading “An evening off.”

The monkey fell out of his bunk and slid down the elephant’s trunk
I’ve been whizzing through the foot of my second Monkey sock – yay! I am of course in no way inspired by the fact that I need those 2.5mm DPNs for another project I want to start. Oh no. Hah! … finish reading “The monkey fell out of his bunk and slid down the elephant’s trunk”
Whoosh!
I’ve been pretty busy over the last few days. Phew! But I have been knitting – I’ll make a longer post all about that a bit later. Right now I’m in the middle of a massive tidy-up / clear out … finish reading “Whoosh!”
SP11 again!
I had an email today to say that the Secret Pal matches are starting to go out. *bounce* I’m ridiculously excited about this whole thing, really. I do hope I get a non-UK pal, upstream or downstream or both. I … finish reading “SP11 again!”

1. What is/are your favorite yarn/s to knit with? What fibers do you absolutely *not* like? I pretty much like anything that feels nice to knit with, to be honest. I’ve knit with some lovely acrylics and some horrible pure … finish reading “SP11 Questionnaire”
Die Wolle!
Also! Ich kann nicht gut Deutsch spreche, aber wolle ich für einer blog Eintrag es versuchen. Ich habe aus BockstarkKnits einen Preis gewinnt! (And really, me writing this in German is silly, since the fab Kris who runs the site … finish reading “Die Wolle!”
Secret Pal 11!
I’m all signed up for Secret Pal 11 – whee, my first knitty exchange! This is just a quick post to say hi in case anyone wanders over here. My questionnaire will be up soon! Everything to do with the … finish reading “Secret Pal 11!”
Not Dead!
Despite appearances, the blogathon didn’t kill me. Hoorah! It did wipe me out for a bit there, though, and then I had to spend some time catching up on the things I’d got behind on while I was thus wiped … finish reading “Not Dead!”
