It seems I don't post much anymore?

why is that?
peanut gallery?

I have knit two pair of mittens.
See? Both used Noro Kureyon (about 1 1/2 skeins.) Don't you love *love* my towel behind the mitten?

The pattern is from The Knitter's Handy Book of Patterns by the Amazing Ann Budd. Have you ever used this book? It's great. Gauge swatch and go! That simple.


Podcast coming soon. It's time. I've been knitting 5 years in about 1 week. Cool, ain't it?

Cider Moon Trunk Show

was Saturday at Knitters Mercantile.

Have you seen Cider Moon's yarn? These ladies know how to dye! They also know how to have a good time. Check out their blog. Someone bought yarn. *I wonder who?*

I have been knitting. Really. I have no pictures to prove it, but I have.

This area has been hit with very cold weather the last week or so. I even had two snow days. During this time, I realized that I did not have any mittens or gloves. Being a resourceful knitter, I have one mitten finished and the second almost half way finished.

Got to see the Reality Tour this weekend. He's not as angry as in his post-valentine's day post. Really.

I'm giving additional thoughts on podcasting. I've been listening to several and enjoying them. I'm getting pensive on what to talk about and who I can have sit with me. You interested?

I'm considering a trip to England this year. I'm thinking countryside areas. Wales? What do you suggest? It would be a vacation to relax and see the country (not just buying yarn).

btw: my house was without heat last night. Got down to 42 degrees. They didn't deliver the fuel oil in a timely fashion. The furnace is running now. and the kitchen plumbing has decided to go wonky. It leaks. So it was dishes in the tub. *sigh* I guess plumbing will be top of the list in the spring.
another btw: knitsb is moving in. jewelry will be exchanged. It's nice to find someone wonderful, isn't it?
