fayaway knits: Knitting Funk
http://fayawayknits.blogspot.com/2010/06/knitting-funk.html
Monday, June 28, 2010. For the first time in years, I just don't feel like knitting. I don't know if it's the heat or the fact that I'm in a terrible knitting rut (another turquoise sweater anyone? But I just don't feel like picking up my knitting needles these days. Despite the lack of knitting, I have been busy crafting up a storm. A couple of weeks ago I was bitten by the origami bug and suddenly had the crazy urge to make a lot. I've actually lost count of how many of these I've folded now, and I've ...

fayaway knits: Unintentional Failure
http://fayawayknits.blogspot.com/2010/12/unintentional-failure.html
Monday, December 20, 2010. O·ver·sight [oh-ver-sahyt] – noun. 1 An unintentional failure to notice or do something. That pretty much sums up this project. I just finished blocking a Christmas stocking for my mother in law, and I was feeling pretty smug that I was almost done with it. But, I really should have given more thought to the whole "knit stocking" thing. Given how popular knit stockings are, it never once occurred to me that knitting is stretchy.

fayaway knits: DIY Stitch Markers
http://fayawayknits.blogspot.com/2010/08/diy-stitch-markers.html
Friday, August 6, 2010. I've been coveting a set of pretty beaded stitch markers for at least a year now, and last weekend I finally decided to do something about it. Being a do-it-yourself-er (and exceedingly cheap), I consulted some rudimentary instructions I found via Google, picked up some beads on sale at Michael's, and fashioned a handful of my own stitch markers. Despite not knowing the first thing about beading, I think they turned out alright. I especially love. Project just to try them out.

fayaway knits: Estate Sale Bounty
http://fayawayknits.blogspot.com/2010/12/estate-sale-bounty.html
Wednesday, December 15, 2010. One early Saturday morning in November, I got a call from my mom asking if I wanted her to purchase a bunch of knitting supplies she had just found at an estate sale. There were some of those "joined needles," a case of "regular needles," and a bunch of pattern booklets all for $20.00. I was half-asleep at the time, but, of course, I said "sure! I'm sure glad I didn't pass it up because I found a few interesting treasures. Sally, The Fearless Knitter. View my complete profile.

fayaway knits: I'm not dead, really!
http://fayawayknits.blogspot.com/2010/12/im-not-dead-really.html
Sunday, December 12, 2010. I'm not dead, really! Sorry for the prolonged silence around here. There's a really good reason for it: I didn't knit a stitch for months. I just fell into a uninspired funk and stopped knitting. Seriously, I didn't even buy any yarn! It was that bad, folks. But, the weather started to change, and well, I've got a little blog fodder again. Over the Thanksgiving break, I started a Skinny Empire t-shirt from the incredibly awesome Custom Knits. Before my next post. Really. I live...

fayaway knits: Back at It
http://fayawayknits.blogspot.com/2010/08/back-at-it.html
Tuesday, August 3, 2010. So, I've holding out on ya'll. I've been over my knitting funk for about a week now, and I've started plugging away on Swish Steeples again. While it's not a very popular pattern on Ravelry, the pattern is very well written, and it's been smooth sailing so far. I've always knit raglan sweaters, and this marks my first bottom-up sweater. I'm a little anxious to see how the sleeves will fit into the armhole shaping, but so far it's going very well. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Stuff, Stuff and More Stuff: Prince Charming
http://lisaandstuff.blogspot.com/2013/07/prince-charming.html
Stuff, Stuff and More Stuff. Friday, July 26, 2013. But yet, I AM a woman, and even though I am a fairly practical one at that, I still like to ooooo and awwwww over the dresses, see how some of the dresses look on people and get somewhat caught up in the romantic idea of getting married. So when I was watching an episode in bed (without my headphones on I might add), and the gal starts sniffling and talking about how her guy is her ‘prince’, I start sniffling as well.

Stuff, Stuff and More Stuff: July 2012
http://lisaandstuff.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Stuff, Stuff and More Stuff. Sunday, July 8, 2012. Don't judge me, but I downloaded a romance book the other day. Nothing raunchy - just some light reading since I haven't picked up a book in months. And heck! I am a gal, that kinda stuff appeals to me ok? There were several flaws to this romance:. How in love could you possibly be if you didn't at least *question* the guy who was against you the whole time had to say? Go friggin find her as soon as possible and question her why she is being a dumba$!
