Perhaps it’s just me, but every time I look at the beginning of my Clementine Shawlette (Spring 2007 IK) I think…
Hmmm, I appear to have just knitted a codpiece.
Oh, I’ll keep knitting it, but I’ll never get that out of my mind. I have to keep myself from calling it my “Codpiece Shawlette.”
Ok [...]

The view from my walk this morning… kind of cool and ominous at the same time. Yep, I do believe it’s gonna rain today.
But, I have new yarn to keep me company. Too bad I just can’t set all the work, and laundry, etc, etc, aside and curl up and knit. Rain and knitting just [...]

It was supposed to rain today.
We were afraid it was going to rain today.
But, this is the beautiful view I had this morning. This is the view from our little cemetery, where I said goodbye today to an amazing woman.
God is good.
The sun was shining, everything was crystal clear – as it only looks after [...]

My youngest daughter’s boyfriend has been gone to church camp all weekend – a 3-day weekend.
She’s sad, she’s lonely… she’s drawing UN-happy faces on everything….
She told me yesterday – you don’t miss daddy this much when he’s gone…. I tried to explain that of course I do – but after 25 years I’ve figured out [...]

I had a conference call this morning. I used to DREAD these, because they are sooooo boring. Without trying to sound too smug, all our conference calls are pretty much for the people who just can’t seem to “get it”, but we all have to attend. Work is the ONE place in my life where [...]

It may be threatening to rain tomorrow, but Spring has still sprung in my little corner of the world.
So, I’m going into spring knitting mode. I’m going to focus on spring and “cruise” wear from now until after the Sea Socks cruise. That means putting Central Park Hoodie on hold…. but it does [...]

….. or what happens when you don’t follow(read) ALL the directions.
That, my friends, is about 3 hours of unproductive making-things-a-whole-lot-harder-than-they-are, and about 1 hour of actual productive knitting.Last night I had a rare LONG stretch of knitting time ahead of me, about 3-1/2 hours. Pretty much unheard of at my house.
But, I seem to have [...]
