AJKnitting: In which I pretend a year hasn't passed since my last post
http://ajknitting.blogspot.com/2011/09/in-which-i-pretned-year-hasnt-passed.html
Thursday, September 8, 2011. In which I pretend a year hasn't passed since my last post. Wait, what's that? It is only September you say? Trust me. It is time. Once again the EJ knows exactly what she wants to be for Halloween this year. I asked her a second time and she replies with annoyance in her voice "I already told you I want to be Angelina! More specifically Angelina Ballerina as the Rose Fairy Princess. I have however managed to develop a plan. Should be a fun ride. Make your own badge here.

AJKnitting: May 2010
http://ajknitting.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 21, 2010. I just love the trend of layering scarves over an outfit. I had been working on my first knit shawl for way too long. almost a year I think, but I am so happy to have it finished! It is the Fountain Pen Shawl from an Interweave Knits magazine from 2009. I didn't make it as large as the pattern suggested, because I wanted to wear it as a scarf and not a shawl. It was a lot of fun to watch it change after blocking it! Check out her blog. And take a look around! Saturday, May 1, 2010.

Monday, September 13, 2010. The incredible shrinking sweater! Surly it is the sweater getting smaller right? EJ looks exactly the same. Special thanks to blogless Erin for her ability to knit baby sweaters that fit toddlers as shrugs. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). This is a Flickr badge showing public photos from ajkretchun.

knitscapade: June 2010
http://knitscapade.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 14, 2010. Updating an old mirror. Long time no post! We've been doing a lot of house updates, including painting our foyer. After debating color for more than a year, the room has finally gone from Pale Avocado to Wet Concrete. But more on that later. The painting made me rethink this old mirror, which I bought at an estate sale for my first college apartment (gulp! This thing is a massive sandwich of glass, backing board etc. so I just masked off the mirror with painter's tape.

knitscapade: March 2010
http://knitscapade.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 28, 2010. The end in sight. Friday, March 26, 2010. Favorite Photo Friday # 4. I know this is the first one I've participated in. I'll try to do better. Nothing says spring to me like the March Bank at Winterthur. I took this shot in 2008. Sunday, March 21, 2010. I've always been a girl who needs a deadline to get things done. Best way to make sure the house gets clean? Plan a party. Best way to finish a dining room table? Plan a dinner party for 22! Sanded, ad nauseum. The end in sight.

The Spice Rack: and then she was 60.
http://michellelancet.blogspot.com/2012/09/and-then-she-was-60.html
Tasting the spice of life through my adventures in parenting, cooking, gardening, and knitting. Sunday, September 23, 2012. And then she was 60. My mom, that is. I don't think the lady had a party thrown for her since her wedding reception. She should be celebrated. So my brothers and I set out to do so. She wanted a picnic and we tried to give her the best one we could. That pin she is wearing on sweater? Hershey's Perfect Chocolate Cake. Heat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour two 9-inch round ba...Stir t...

knitscapade: January 2010
http://knitscapade.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 7, 2010. I bought some beautiful Malabrigo chunky yarn in "Pearl" with visions of big lovely cables in my head. I've knit about 6 inches of two cable scarves and am about to frog for the second time. I think this yarn is just so darn lovely that it wants nothing more than a k1p1 rib so it can just show off its fluffy semi-solid gloriousness. I think I need to stop forcing cables and save them for a more boring yarn that needs a pick me up. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Passion from a Stone.

The Spice Rack: Girl Power
http://michellelancet.blogspot.com/2012/08/girl-power.html
Tasting the spice of life through my adventures in parenting, cooking, gardening, and knitting. Monday, August 13, 2012. I'm on vacation- our longest one ever as family (17 days! And this morning, it was just me and The Boss at the beach. She's always been inquisitive, but age five seems to have brought along a more mature line of questioning. I like it. We have real conversations now and she tests my knowledge of life and nature constantly. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

knitscapade: August 2009
http://knitscapade.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 10, 2009. This spring / summer I've finally taken to knitting some garments for myself (as opposed to for everyone else's babies / kids). It's pretty rewarding making things for yourself. I just might get hooked on this. A ombre version of the Mason Dixon fair isle masterpiece, Liberty, in ivory and oatmeal colored Cascade 220. I'm starting with a throw pillow. If all goes well, I'll make the blanket too. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I'm a married workaholic; knitting is my zen.
