My Poor Little Blog

Oh my poor little knitting blog! I’m afraid I haven’t been the greatest at keeping this blog up to date these days. I have been neglecting it for my new blog that I have been having so much fun with and getting to know so many neat people through.
This new blog is all about my [...]

I have a Confession to Make

I have a confession to make; a knitting confession to be exact. It is something that I am rather embarrassed to admit. It actually has me so embarrassed that I never want to knit in public for fear that a fellow knitter may do a double take because I look rather strange. In fact, a [...]

Wow, What a Concept!

I stumbled upon this blog today as I was feeling very quilty and down for sort of neglecting my blog this month. I couldn’t have stumbled upon it at a better time! I don’t feel quite so bad now. And the more I think about it the more and more I like it.

I am notorious for probing the internet looking for knitting patterns and then printing them out and leaving them in various locations such as favorite [...]

Yet Another Great Knitting Book

I recently requested some knitting books from my local library. I just love the library but I will save those ramblings for another post…..
One of the books that I just picked up is amazing. I am not surprised though because I have another book by the same author that is equally as good as this [...]

Bright and Hard to Loose Mitts

 
Yesterday I finished knitting this pair of mittens for my youngest son, L-man. He likes bright and crazy colors so these fit his personality perfectly. And I am hoping that considering how bright they are they will be hard to loose! Both yarns I hand dyed. The orange is dyed with annatto seeds. The yellow [...]

Ever Usual Eucalyptus

 
Eucalyptus is another herb I really like to have around the house, especially this time of year. It is so good for colds and stuffy noses. I am prone to sinus infections so I like to keep a bottle of eucalyptus essential oil on hand. When my nose is stuffy due to allergies or a [...]
