Monster Knit Rally: February 2006
http://monsterknitrally.blogspot.com/2006_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 26, 2006. I've done quite a bit of knitting this week, and reached my goal of finishing all the knitting for my sweater by the end of the Olympics. Yay me. (Pictures soon! This week I will do the finishing - weaving in ends, seaming, blocking, and wearing (if all comes out as planned). I also worked on another craft project today - a paper bowl made out of recycled magazines (not so detailed tutorial on craftster. Posted by Rebecca at 8:36 PM. Links to this post.

Monster Knit Rally: April 2006
http://monsterknitrally.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 30, 2006. I finished my project for Sew? Just under the wire. I made a pouch from this book, Made for Travel by Mary Mulari, which I got from the library. This book has good instructions, a few really cute projects, some other decent ideas that could be modified to be really cute, and definitely a fair share of tacky projects. I did all the sewing by hand, since my machine is in storage about 3,000 miles away. But a friend saw Monsieur Perkins. Posted by Rebecca at 3:34 PM. 1 or 2 plum toma...

Monster Knit Rally: July 2006
http://monsterknitrally.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 23, 2006. Veggies, sprouts and a good book. Today was another productive but semi-lazy Sunday. I went to the Farmer's Market this morning. I tend to get carried away and spend more money than I mean to and/or buy things that I don't use. So today I set myself a budget of $10, and got the following:. These are little thyme sprouts coming up. I am excited for them to be big enough to use in my cooking! Oh, and I will be posting an official announcement of my Etsy shop soon (I'm still adding a ...

Monster Knit Rally: June 2006
http://monsterknitrally.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 11, 2006. I have a new digital camera that isn't 5 years old (like my old one). I can take pretty pictures on it, like this one below from a hike we took yesterday. And uploading the photos to my computer is so easy, it's awesome. This is my finished shrug (photos at my mom's request). Shrugs are such odd garments, I wasn't sure I would wear one, but this one is quite comfy and cute, so I think it will get some use. Posted by Rebecca at 7:41 PM. Links to this post.

Monster Knit Rally: August 2006
http://monsterknitrally.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 29, 2006. After seeing deviled eggs on Lisa's blog. Too, but then I realized we already had the perfect amount of food for a warm summer evening. What's your favorite hors d'oeuvre? Edited to add: Apparently. Had deviled eggs on the brain as well. Though her way of keeping the yolks from turning green seems pretty convoluted to me. Joy of Cooking just told me to run the eggs under cold water after I simmered them for 15 minutes, and that seemed to work fine. Posted by Rebecca at 7:44 PM.

Monster Knit Rally: December 2005
http://monsterknitrally.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 30, 2005. We are go for photos. I finished a number of knitted holiday gifts before the holiday, and I even wrapped them, with little gift tags and handwritten care instructions. But they are still sitting in a box in my living room waiting to be sent out. Not my fault. The package is awaiting other holiday gifts which someone else still has not purchased. For both of their projects, and ended up using some leftover yarn from one on the other. This yarn is awesome. Very soft-spun...But H...
