inspired by my friend missy
1. finnigan randomly chooses handknits that i wear regularly and makes them into a comfy place to take a nap.  tonight it was my scarf and hat, lying on a chair near the back door.
2. i seem to find the brighter side to just about everything even faster than i’ve ever [...]

i’m making a family set of skullies for a college buddy of mine that i’ll see next month for the first time in a handfulla years.  the first one (the smallest one) is done…

i think it might seriously be one of the cutest things i’ve ever knit.  i can’t stop giggling every time i look [...]

ok, so it’s nothing big, but i did blog at least once for every day of november.    i really will try to keep it to three posts a week-ish, from here forward…
i finished another gift knit:

and that momentum takes me into the remaining 6 Christmas knitting projects (one is started, already).  let’s see [...]

as november comes to an end…  and not far behind the year 2009…  i wonder how it all goes by so quickly!
on a much lesser scale, i can’t believe the holiday weekend is already over and i’m back at work, tomorrow.  can you believe tuesday is DECEMBER 1ST?!?!
i got a little more holiday shopping done, [...]

- looking forward to mashed potatoes.
- glad she only has to travel two blocks, tomorrow.
- going to combat a few of the plethora of calories ingested tomorrow by takin’ a walk with her momma in the morning.
- happy to have a four day weekend.
- laughing at finnigan and his silly antics.
- probably missing your face.
- [...]

so the project i picked up yarn and needles for at loopy, friday night, was on and back off the needles in less than 24 hours.

it’s the foliage hat from fall 2007 knitty in malabrigo worsted, colorway is brisa.  hoping the recipient will like it, i’m certain it will look adorable on her.  stinkin’ cute, [...]

i heart becca’s face

and mary and kristy’s faces (and apparently kristy loves mary’s face pretty hard, too!  )

kristy also really loves her chevron mittens.  heee!

i’ve started a new project.  heh.  what was that i was saying about inspiration, the other day?    sometimes you just have to go with it.

i need to get more sleep at night.  i’m cranky, today, and some sinus crap that’s been sitting behind my eyes since saturday has finally broken and is making my nose runny and my throat raw.  meh.  took some sinus/allergy stuff and will kick it with some decent sleep, tonight.
in the mean-time, i finished a [...]

my girl missy sometimes does this ten on tuesday thing and it sounds like a quick and dirty way to get a blog post out there. 

i decided on an order for the colors and started the mittens today.  they’re gorgeous and i’m going to have a hard time leaving them alone while i [...]

so i’m a step closer to starting those chevron mittens i talked about last week.  our knit-a-long officially started, today, but i only got as far as winding the balls.  i can’t believe that only ONE person chimed in with any thoughts on what order i should go in…

so at least i’ll have a project [...]
