Podcasts, baby hats and sleep, oh my.

So lately I've been working on getting caught up on the knitpicks podcasts and then knitting out of my collection of paper bags. I finished a set of fingerless gloves and now am working on my Sweet Baby Cap. It makes me think of andes candies. Who knows what will be in the next bag?

Testing...

I'm trying to see if I can post from my moto q. If it works well I have high hopes for posting more often. I'm excited to be blogging again.

Wow I'm busy...

I've been way busy knitting and working and cleaning. My mother-in-law is coming soon and so we've been working on organizing. I'm kind of antsy to clean the spare bedroom because a lot of it is all the fancy yarn that isn't leftover from my acrylic days. LOL. I've been listening to the Knit Picks podcasts and trying to just get things accomplished.

I finished the socks for my mom. They are fabulous! I'll post pictures when I remember to get them. Mom says they're a little tight, but they feel good while she's wearing them. We took her for Hibachi on Monday and she was very excited.

In other news, I had to get my brakes done, and my phone is out for repair because of some issues I was having. So I'm just kinda stressed.

I can't wait for Sheep in the City. I'm trying to finish Megan's sweater by the time it comes so that I can use it for sewing up in Lois' class. I'm excited. So tonight is knitting and watching Doctor Who.

Mindless Knitting

So I have a horrible headache and a sinus infection that is making my vertigo flare up. Everything is a bit spinnie right now, so I needed something mindless to work on. So I poked through my stash and found this:
I decided on a simple triangle shawl from the bottom up. Just a whole lotta garter stitch, mindless that is. I know I lost the second ball of it and now I've got to find it or my shawl won't be very big.

Late night knitting frenzy.

So lately I haven't been sleeping well. I guess it's mostly because my pain level is pretty high right now for my back and just not being able to sleep. *shrug* Hopefully it'll get better. So I've been knitting a lot, working on a pair of socks for my mom and the Hemlock ring blanket for her too. Her birthday is on February 9th. Hopefully I'll be done with both projects by then.

My first blog...

So I've started a new blog here. Yay!

When i got dressed this morning I realized that I've got way too many t-shirts and jean outfits. I think maybe next year I want to go shopping and get a new wardrobe. I think I just got comfy and didn't get outfits to fit my own personality. So shopping it will be!

As for knitting, I've been way focused on cowls and scarves lately. I guess I've been way cold... Lol. I've been working on xmas pressies too. I've got way much to do and not sure what to knit next. I've finished cowls and calorimetry's... I've got a couple of things to finish.

Well off to work I go.
