March 2005 Archives

That's the theme for the week. Besides knitting as fast I can trying to finish my niece's bday gift I'm busy figuring out plans for a vacation. It's been three years since our last international trip...time for another one. The world is our option! I'm thinking train trip across Canada, castle hunting in the Czech Republic, discovering the Basque countryside in Spain, and so on. Any ideas? Send them on! I have two weeks to spend discovering the world.

Remember alive and kicking? Well, that's what keeps running through my head as I see some kick a$$ art around the lovely WWW. Check out this first, then this and finally this. If you know of others drop me a comment.

The dreaded stall has occured! I got so freaking frustrated with my hat that I stopped knitting it. Now I'm either a total idiot (yes, it's true!) or the instructions are poorly written. I'm opting for the second. So, I'm giving it a rest and starting to focus on a b-day present for my little niece.

Now for the WIPs:
- bday scarf for Mom, knitting in Koigu, 8 months old
- socks for DH, Lorna's Laces, 1 month old
- hat, Classic Elite Waterspun, 2 weeks

The same can be said for my spinning. STALLED. The good thing though I'm cranking out jewelry left and right ever since I got a check in the mail last week from my consignment store. Yup! I sold a piece. Yippee!!
