AMG BLAGHS: January 2007
http://amgblahgs.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html
I knit, therefore I must be nuts. Tuesday, January 30, 2007. Nothing like a little C&P. Because I am just too damn lazy to do this all over again, I am copying my post from the Sybermoms Stash KAL. OK, here goes. I had to plop the child in front of disney.com to be able to drag this all out LOL. More wool. And some cotton. Some novelty yarn. And, OMD - look at that skinny skinny yarn *fainting* There's some novelty yarn in there. And that really, really fugly stuff? And well, how else am I supposed to.

Box of Yarn: April 2005
http://boxofyarn.blogspot.com/2005_04_01_archive.html
My little world of knitting, crocheting, and sewing craziness. Wednesday, April 27, 2005. This is getting ridiculous. Actually, I think we passed ridiculous a few weeks ago. The circular needle plan for TFLW fell through. They broke. My birch circular needles broke. Back to the drawing board and dpns. To soothe my fractured nerves I started a small star blanket, it will be doll sized. With my recent luck, it will probably turn out moon shaped and elephant sized, but what the hell.

AMG BLAGHS: July 2006
http://amgblahgs.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
I knit, therefore I must be nuts. Wednesday, July 12, 2006. Felting, felting, felting. Keep those bags a felting, with wooooooool! So, the Big Bad Striped Tote is done - yippeee! It's drying now. Blocking it wasn't all that easy. I think I emptied every small trash can we had in the house to find a good frame for blocking. Wound up using the last two HP novels again, along with a Jasper FForde. And now, a month later. The blue one was made in August, mostly in the car. And there were a number of time...

AMG BLAGHS: September 2006
http://amgblahgs.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
I knit, therefore I must be nuts. Sunday, September 24, 2006. When seemingly good ideas go horribly awry. So, waaaaaay back in late July, a friend saw the big tote I made and loved it. She wanted one JUST like it, but in black, grey and red. And even better, she wanted to PAY me for it. Like with real money. So, what did I do? Well, OK. Not immediately. Bad, bad thing to do. Really. Don't think about knitting. Just DO it. What if she doesn't like it? I'll double the yarn and make it on 13's! That didn't ...

I knit, therefore I must be nuts. Thursday, April 27, 2006. And so it begins. Thanks to the generosity of 2 really cool. AKA Girl Interrupted and Box of Rain, I know have the requsite supplies to knit a real bag. So, I naturally proceeded to spend about a day and 1/2 searching for. He perfect felted bag. Because, well, I. Have to have a pattern. And at Knitting Central's free patterns for bags, totes and purses. Naturally, nothing was just right, Goldilocks. So, I made it up. LOL. Spent on Excel making s...

AMG BLAGHS: March 2007
http://amgblahgs.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
I knit, therefore I must be nuts. Friday, March 23, 2007. Positive Thinking didn't do squat. No matter how much I tried to tell myself to just think positive, there was no saving this project. I think there is equal blame to go around between my knitting skills (or lack thereof) and the um. Very nice person I'm sure. Who devised this diabolical Entrelac Tote pattern from Knit Picks. That was the best part of this whole thing. Approximately 30' of yarn per strand and this is what I got:. How bad can it be?

I knit, therefore I must be nuts. Sunday, February 12, 2006. And I was going to get so much done this weekend. Instead, we've all been sneezing and sniffling and lazing about. I did get my first baby washcloth finished for the Knitting Olympics. You can see my progress on that, along with my teammates, on our team blog. I did take a break from knitting (and cursing the knitting) to make a set of stitch markers. A fellow Sybermom. Requested a set to give as a gift. I love these little red hearts. Which is...

AMG BLAGHS: November 2006
http://amgblahgs.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html
I knit, therefore I must be nuts. Monday, November 06, 2006. Crap I hate it when I start thinking. I received this loverly Colinette Zanziba yarn in Cinnamon. In a swap. there are 4 balls, approx 392 yards total. So I decided to make a scarf. Just for ME. I wanted a wide scarf that draped nicely and that I could drape over my head to cover my ears if it were a little windy. I was spurred on to begin the thing this weekend, when I spent HOURS outside in a chilly wind at a craft fair. Links to this post.
