MandarellaKnits: It's been ... One Week
http://mandarellaknits.blogspot.com/2012/10/its-been-one-week.html
Knitting, Spinning, Speech Pathology. This is my life. Friday, October 12, 2012. It's been . One Week. First week on the new job is officially over, and I'm still here. There were moments when I had my doubts that would be the case. But I now know what my caseload will be, and brought home a TON of files to go through to start to get to know the kids and plan what I want to do with them when I start seeing them. Also, internet service was down in the building today (which I'm told is a regular occurrence...

MandarellaKnits: February 2012
http://mandarellaknits.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Knitting, Spinning, Speech Pathology. This is my life. Wednesday, February 29, 2012. I haven't posted here in a really long time! So much has happened in the past 8 months! First, school: Over the past 2 semesters (spring/summer 2011 and fall 2011) I finished my on-campus coursework. This semester (winter 2012) I am taking a couple of on-line courses and working at a full-time internship in a public school. The end is in sight! In January, the whole class took (and passed, whew! In December, I made a rea...

MandarellaKnits: July 2010
http://mandarellaknits.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Knitting, Spinning, Speech Pathology. This is my life. Monday, July 5, 2010. Tour de Fleece 2010. I've decided to participate in the Tour de Fleece. Yeah, it's a last minute thing. I'm all about the last minute. Anyway, my goals for the Tour are pretty modest, but I think they're attainable. Finish a couple of spinning WIPs I have going. Get more consistent with my drop spindle. Finish my first skein of spindled yarn (2-ply). And that's all of them! So, here is my first pro. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

MandarellaKnits: New Pattern - Finally!
http://mandarellaknits.blogspot.com/2015/02/new-pattern-finally.html
Knitting, Spinning, Speech Pathology. This is my life. Sunday, February 8, 2015. New Pattern - Finally! I showed a glimpse of these fingerless mitts in my previous post - the first prototype is what I had on the needles last August when we went to the lake, and is what you can see in the picture there. This is the first pattern that I decided to charge for from the start (I recently decided to charge a nominal amount for my previously free Mayday Wrist Distaff. I call them Lakeshore Fingerless Mitts.

Knitting, Spinning, Speech Pathology. This is my life. Sunday, September 26, 2010. Another school year, another head bump. At least this year's call wasn't nearly as bad as last year's! This is a tradition I can do without! Sunday, September 12, 2010. Yes, that light at the end of the tunnel is an oncoming train. Okay, it's been a couple of months since my last post (again! I finished Tour de Fleece pretty well, with 5 finished skeins of yarn:. Close-up of that towering thing up above. Just needed to ven...

MandarellaKnits: August 2014
http://mandarellaknits.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Knitting, Spinning, Speech Pathology. This is my life. Sunday, August 24, 2014. The Tail End of Summer. Well, here it is, almost the last weekend of summer, almost the end of August, and only a week until Labor Day and time for the Boy to go back to school. Kids in the district where I work come back to school this Monday, so the Boy gets a week more vacation than I do. This afternoon I'm sitting on the deck of the dining hall, taking advantage of the camp's wifi, drinking mediocre coffee, and working on...

MandarellaKnits: Where the Wild Things Are
http://mandarellaknits.blogspot.com/2014/07/where-wild-things-are.html
Knitting, Spinning, Speech Pathology. This is my life. Saturday, July 26, 2014. Where the Wild Things Are. The ones that inspired the title of this post were the ones that got me started really looking:. This one is on Woodward Avenue, just north of the Davison, and he feels to me like he is kind of guarding the neighborhood. This area is really struggling, all the buildings along this stretch of road are burned out and falling down, but this creature looks pretty happy and ready to take on the world.

MandarellaKnits: January 2011
http://mandarellaknits.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Knitting, Spinning, Speech Pathology. This is my life. Saturday, January 1, 2011. A new year needs a new look! Well, we made it past the holidays intact! I finished the mittens I was working on for my friends, and they were successfully gifted last Sunday. I wish I'd gotten pictures of the recipients wearing them (Scott said he would never take his off - I think that might eventually get awkward, but it's not up to me), but here are pics of the finished products anyway:. These are a Brooklyn Tweed. We ar...

Knitting, Spinning, Speech Pathology. This is my life. Sunday, October 7, 2012. Heigh ho, heigh ho. Tonight I'm a little nervous, a little excited, and a lot frantic - tomorrow I start a new job! After 3 years of post-bachelor work and earning my master's degree in speech-language pathology, I finally found a position with a contract company and I start tomorrow as an SLP in an elementary school. Now I just have to hope I remember everything I've learned over the past 3 years! View my complete profile.
