05/31/08: Prepping for a Sunday Picnic
So today we had to prep for a picnic tomorrow. Started the morning off with a trip to A.C. Moore to get face paints. Then we got hair cuts. I am back to serious short hair, less than chin length, sweet! There was band practice, and I picked up a new instrument, da bass. And I am sorry to report I have attained a blister on my finger, ouch! Been a long time since I played anything and my finger tips are weak :) Then since the sis is in charge of face painting we had a little practice session. I did her and my mom, and she did the brother and me, and the brother did the scary arm. He loves the anatomy that guy, crazy. Hope we are not burnt out for tomorrow!!

05/23/08: Back to Spinning!
Using the fun tiny spindle I got at Maryland still. This is some December 07 Spunky Club shetland fluff in the Good Morning colorway. I love sitting outside and spinning in the sun :)
05/22/08: More RPMs!
Voila! I have finished another pair of Knitty RPM socks. These are knit using my January Spunky Club wool fiber (walkabout colorway) that I spun up 2-ply. And that is all I have to say about that.

Isn't he cute?
So I had a quick little time at the Maryland Sheep & Wool. But it was very nice indeed. I was even behaving really well, and then all of a sudden I blew it :) I finally bought me some Jamie Harmon yarn. Enouh for a whole sweater! I am crazy but have wanted it ever since my first wool festival so I broke down this time.
And I got a cute little spindle and a pound of purple fluff which I am told will spin up like denim sort of. Fun.

04/01/08: 52 Pair Plunge is Over!
Oops, so as predicted by moi, I did not come close on this one. While I was mostly a sideliner on this plunge, I started out thinking I could at least get half way there, but no, only 13 pairs to my name. Shucks! And I have 2 pair so close but have not touched them since december, shameful! But I figure I have been using up pretty much all of my sock scraps during this plunge, I only have a couple more left. So if you count all the scrapghan squares I have been making, over 100 so far, then maybe I got halfway or more done for the plunge :) he he. Anywho, congrats to all those who made it across the finish line on this one, that is quite a lot of socks!!03/19/08: The Electric Fountain
I have not had much to post since I was on vacation and have only been knitting more scrapghan squares, no need for a photo update on that. But, I remembered I took pics of this crazy huge electric fountain one day during lunch in Rockefeller Center a week ago, and they seem kind of fun to me, so this is what you get instead of boring afghan squares.
