Who’s counting?  I am. Only three more work days until the end of this week and I don’t have to come back to work until next year!  Sounds very dramatic, doesn’t it?  Today more got added to my plate.  The husband called and there is a Christmas party to go to tonight that he wasn’t … Continue reading →

Does anyone else remember way back on August 3rd when I started my Christmas gifts so I wouldn’t be freaking out at this point?  Well, it didn’t work.  The Super Secret Project is 65% complete.  Do the math here people, that means I have 35% of it to finish.  In 8% of the time.  What … Continue reading →

Well, I haven’t posted because I have jumped into the world of online shopping.  It is a very dangerous world, especially when you have already basically completed your Christmas shopping and don’t need to buy anymore stuff.  So, I’ve been browsing around and have only purchased one thing.  If I’m going to order things, it … Continue reading →

Two down, two to go.  I’m hoping to have three of them complete by Saturday, with the final one given to the recipient by Monday.  I think it’s possible, even though I’m going to have to take out the cast off edge on one of them and make it longer.  It’s hard to make things … Continue reading →

The long weekend involved knitting my little hands off.  Okay, my hands aren’t that little (my husband says they are freakishly large) and they are still attached to my arms, but they’re  a bit sore from the overuse.  I worked on the Super Secret Project quite a bit.  I completed 15% of it over the … Continue reading →

I am so thankful that it is a short week!  Okay, I’m thankful for more than that, but that list will follow.  I do want to thank Stef for the fabulous yarn that she sent me months ago that I’ve just now knitted up.  I used the yarn Stef sent, which is so soft, with … Continue reading →

My first project from the Last Minute Knitted Gifts book has already been completed!  And gifted!  I made the Airy scarf for my friend, Candace, for her birthday.  We went out to dinner on Saturday night and had a fabulous time!  Here’s the scarf close-up. I didn’t get a good picture of it from a … Continue reading →
