Angeluna knits into the wee hours of the morning and ponders life.and her stash! So much stash, so little time. Saturday, September 18, 2010. A Nod to the Ancestors. Five months have passed without a word on the blog. I've no idea why I've been so mute. There has been a lot of knitting, as usual, a bit of traveling, some time spent on genealogy. But none of that fully explains the lack of blog time. Speaking of those ancestors, I tripped over this interesting article in an old, old newspaper:. And here i...

Angeluna knits into the wee hours of the morning and ponders life.and her stash! So much stash, so little time. Tuesday, December 29, 2009. Another Blast from the Past. Going through some of the boxes of inherited photo chaos, I found these two old school photos. Ta-da! Documentation of another set of sweaters, the 70s this time. Steven in his vest. Finally got through the Christmas knitting and gift making. These were a big (did I say huge? And what have we here? Here is one of the Christmas presents, f...

Friday was a beautiful crisp day of Indian Summer. Steven lost his courageous battle with leukemia. Who would teach his son to change the oil in the car? To be a man? I thought if I hung on tight enough I could pull him through this. The Fates laughed. I love that three of his friends came last Monday night to watch the Cowboys game...

Stocking up for Sock Madness III, which starts next Thursday, I garnered some Sanguine Gryphon Eidos. Isn't it luscious? I haven't knit with this yet, but am excited to try. I think three of the designs will call for at least two colors, so as any good boy scout, I'm prepared. Come to Me From Crete. These balls and bits used to be the shawl below&...

I Love Lucy the Irish Wolfhound. I was of course in Vermont.in Killington, on a mountain, on Roaring Brook Road, as in Roaring Brook is at the bottom of my friends' front yard. As in Roaring Brook that flooded all over the place. As in Roaring Brook which washed away the bridge. On the road below the house.

It's been so long since I've blogged, I wonder if any of you are still out there? Can you believe, it's freezing here? Cardinals, titmice, doves. I couldn't thaw out the birdbaths, though. I poured in warm water, but it was frozen solid in minutes. What did I do last week-end you ask? My friend Anita was grooming up thi...

Susan and I took a Fair Isle class from Leif Bloomenstahl the last day. It was fun and we accomplished a lot. I'm totally fired up now to start a vest, dare I say Starmore? Unbelievably, I have no appropriate yarn in stash. Sadly, she didn't pop up this year. And now for the second part of the current projects update. Not sure ...

It seems so much more recent. The world has changed and we've become accustomed to the unthinkable. I rode up to the 112th floor on a freight elevator that had a gap of a couple of feet from the floor level. You had to swing the elevator and jump off when it neared the floor. Wow! Now here is a momento. ...

Just said one day that she couldn't think of one more thing to say about hand-knitted socks, so her blog said bye-bye. Everyone seems to be talking away on Facebook and Twitter, but I must say I can't seem to find the time in my day to find out what my friends (love 'em) ate for lunch. Let me count the ways.
