Got tagged by my friend Heidi to do the Meme of Five. I’m ammending it, though; I’m not tagging anyone. Meme on or not as you desire!
I. What were you doing five years ago?
Five years ago I was living in a two bedroom condo with my husband, our new baby, and my sister. Good times. [...]

Yesterday I decided I need one more small fair isle project before doing my EPS yoke, so have cast on these darling mittens many of you have already made. I’m using Cascade 220 superwash in red and white. We’ll see if mine measure up to the previously established cuteness. I am, by way of a [...]

Friday I made another Fair Isle hat, this one worsted weight and sized for a four year old, by request blue and green with circles, no earl flaps. I adapted this knitty pattern: using Mission Falls 1824 wool, I cast on 80 st on a size 8 needle and did half the chart. Since I [...]

Still no camera, so I’ll just describe things. Is that hideously boring? I’ll make the descriptions short.

Some random things for Random Thursday:
It’s really nice to have the car problem settled. My husband and I both do a lot of research before making big decisions, so it took a lot of time and discussion before we felt we could commit to driving a natural gas car. There are definitely trade-offs: wee trunk [...]

My husband’s car was stolen last Monday night. It’s a ten year old Civic, which is very popular among car thieves. Who knew? Having a car stolen is a surreal experience. My man woke me up at six, after he’d gone outside to get the paper:
“Honey, when you went to buy milk last night, did [...]

With apologies for the photo quality (which is about the best you can get using this camera), may I proudly present the Tulips Baby Cardi:
Is that not the cutest thing ever? I am so pleased with it! I’m having a hard time restraining myself from Fed-Xing it right to California so my friend can immediately [...]
