clap your hands!  I can finally show you what I’ve been working on for the last week or so, my clapotis.  I bought the yarn at Maryland Sheep and Wool.  It’s handpainted 100% rayon.  While I was so tempted to buy only wool, you don’t really have the opportunity to wear wool sweaters in Houston, … Continue reading →

Tonight my camera, I mean my husband arrives home.  All joking aside, I really missed him and will be glad to have him home.  Since I can’t show you my knitting progress, I thought it was a good time to pay a debt.  I owe Stacy a meme.  In the whirlwind of sheep and wool, … Continue reading →

For some reason, I got inspired at about 11 o’clock tonight to re-do the blog.  Once I started, I couldn’t stop.  I think I like the challenge of trying to create something when I know nothing.  Okay…must.go.to.bed. Continue reading →

Life feels pretty uneventful today, so I thought I’d visit a time that was very eventful…Korean Karoke. Many of the blogger folks that partook in Korean Karoke while at Sheep and Wool have already posted their take. Here’s a pictorial tour of the evening. When we got there, the first order of business was to … Continue reading →

This weekend was quiet, in great contrast to last weekend (which is probably a good thing because as fun as last weekend was, it was absolutely exhausting).  The husband is in Taiwan on a school trip, giving me some alone time.  Initially, I was excited about having this time, but the charm has worn off.  … Continue reading →

You see this picture on the front page of the Washington Post Express (which you get for free when you take the Metro in Washington DC) on Monday morning… and you instantly assume that it is an article about Maryland Sheep & Wool.  Imagine my surprise when I turned to page 32 (yep, the page … Continue reading →

Sheep and Wool brought much happiness, most of which is best expressed in pictures rather than words, so I’ll try not to be too rambly. I flew in on Friday and Sarah indulged my touristy need by taking me not only to the typical Washington D.C. locations, but also to Knit Happens! It was great … Continue reading →

Why is it that anytime I meet someone I admire or think is really cool who I’d really like to not act like a complete moron in front of, I am transformed into exactly that.  I just have to get this off my chest before I tell you about the amazingly fabulous weekend I had.  … Continue reading →

I’m trying to think of a creative way to say that I am SO excited about Maryland S$W, but I think the excitement has been mostly expressed amongst the knitters.  Because it is my blogging goal to be just like Carrie (okay, I think she’s the greatest, but I’m not quite that obsessed), I dug … Continue reading →

I have been so busy with work that April absolutely disappeared.  I just realized that this weekend is Maryland Sheep and Wool.  I am so excited about meeting people that I haven’t really even thought about the yarn.  I’ve got to figure out what I want to buy, or at least some idea.  If I … Continue reading →
