Knitting: March 2012
http://woollymammothyarns.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 23, 2012. I'm in a creative slump right now. Totally uninspired. I have no writing ideas, no knitting ideas and am totally blank. This sucks. I don't even want to do fun stuff around the house like baking. Maybe I just need more rest, or more time, or both.Blah. This will pass and I will get my mojo back. It just might take a while. Sunday, March 4, 2012. The buttons are killing me! Well, not really but they are a problem. So, I'm back to square one. What buttons? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Knitting: February 2012
http://woollymammothyarns.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 20, 2012. Here's what happens when you knit by the seat of your pants, don't take notes and make two items that need to be exactly alike at very different times from one another:. What's that you say? That my friend, is a giant ball of re-do, aka try-again, aka knit-it-over. Or you could just call it, I messed up so bad there's no fixing it. It's because I think my memory is infallible, but unfortunately it is not. And I had proof in my two different sized sleeves. I can do that. The fir...

Knitting: October 2012
http://woollymammothyarns.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 25, 2012. Here's my story: Last spring, during that time when the sun is warm but there's still snow on the ground, I decided to go running. Not knowing how warm I would get, I started the run with my mittens. About a mile and a half in I got hot and took them off. Then at mile 2 and a half I checked my pockets and one of them was gone! Since then I have made no mittens and now it is snowing. This is unfortunate indeed. Sunday, October 21, 2012. My Brain Doesn't Work. Friends and More Me.

Knitting: 2014
http://woollymammothyarns.blogspot.com/2014/01/2014.html
Thursday, January 2, 2014. I guess the earth kept spinning and flying around the sun. These things are to be expected but they seem to have caught me by surprise. Not very glamorous.). My child is turning 3! I will be married for 10(! Time keeps chugging along. I'm not really making resolutions this year but I have goals. My goal is to do more stuff - write more, read more, make stuff (Sweaters! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Friends and More Me. Life Should Be Beautiful. View my complete profile.

Knitting: January 2014
http://woollymammothyarns.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 20, 2014. I am in hibernation mode. It seems like everything is a little bit harder and more demanding than normal, driving is terrible, taking out the garbage requires a full suit up - parka and boots, even walking is treacherous. Mostly that just means I'm even less motivated than normal to do anything but sit on the couch. Bad for my waistline, but good for my knitting projects. My current project is the Puffin Sweater. And maybe I'll be done with it before next winter. Hopefully the d...

Knitting: North Coaster
http://woollymammothyarns.blogspot.com/2013/03/north-coaster.html
Thursday, March 28, 2013. What's causing this obsession with simplicity and mindless ease? Fatigue, stress, cabin fever. Not the worst things that could happen to a person, but enough to make me not want to try to figure out which pattern row I'm on and which decrease to do in the lacy sweater-vest I'm making for myself.

Knitting: January 2013

Saturday, January 19, 2013. I think I might be a boy. Not in a sexual identity sort of way but in a stuff I do and like sort of way. Here's why:. 2 Every time I go out to lunch the restaurant is 95% guys. I don't understand this one. Is it because, I'm generally eating cheeseburgers or bbq? Is it because guys, statistically, eat out more? Not sure, but if lunch is an indicator I am a boy. WE NEED MORE FEMALE BREWERS! I was amused and a little flattered by the extent of the positive reaction, but I have h...

Knitting: Bad Gauge
http://woollymammothyarns.blogspot.com/2014/01/bad-gauge.html
Sunday, January 12, 2014. I've never paid much attention to the gauge called for in patterns. I've always figured that if I used the right needles and the right size yarn it would be close enough. I have learned that yarn doesn't always play nice, like, it grows when you wash it. I believe the technical term for this is "bloom" and I don't like it. Ah well, live and learn. I will from here on out be blocking all of my swatches. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Friends and More Me.

Knitting: Pie
http://woollymammothyarns.blogspot.com/2013/03/pie.html
Saturday, March 30, 2013. I been blessed with one amazing gift in life.and it is pie. I make killer pie. Fruit pie, custard pie, savory pie, if I make it, it is good. I know it is very un-midwesternly of me to say it but, even I think it is delicious-really good, and in fact, I want to eat a whole one myself. I think the secret is my crust - which is light and flaky and deliciously flavorful. There you have it. My pie wisdom. Minus my secret ingredient of course. :). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Monday, January 30, 2012. I'm not sure how, but I came across this lady (textisles.com) and she is amazing. She inspires awe in me because she is a wonderful designer, a beautiful writer, apparently a very good photographer, and she's recovering from a stroke so she's not even 100%. Plus she's Scottish, and, honestly, how can you not love a Scot? I kind of want to be her (except for the stroke, of course) or at least have her artistic skill. Alas.maybe someday. Saturday, January 28, 2012. For these I'm m...
