The Insecurity Blanket: June 2005
http://insecurityblanket.blogspot.com/2005_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 27, 2005. Please allow me to introduce myself, I’m a man of wealth and taste. As I am basically a lazy person, I cribbed the questions from the Secret Pals gift exchange as a way of introduction:. 1 Are you a yarn snob (do you prefer higher quality and/or natural fibers)? Do you avoid Red Heart and Lion Brand? Or is it all the same to you? 2 Do you spin? No I don’t. But I want to learn to crochet so that I can do some of those fancy edges I see in. Knitting on the Edge. The only other needle...

Wednesday, March 15, 2006. You Can Leave Your Hat On. The local knitting guild decided that this year’s knitting exchange would be hats. We exchanged yarn at the last meeting. Everybody is excited and looking forward to the December meeting when get to see each other’s work. I looked at the yarn I was given and I’m starting to get some ideas. I decided to knit a few hats to get in the mood. The first hat I knitted was a Simple Fair Isle Hat. I like knitting hats; they’re quick and easy. As always, I had ...

The Insecurity Blanket: August 2005
http://insecurityblanket.blogspot.com/2005_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 31, 2005. Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue. As of Wednesday morning I have 5 1/4 inches of the last sleeve still to knit. The going got faster when I finished the section with the garter stitch border. Now it is straight stockinette. Mad props to my friend Mark who lent me "Clerks" and "Clerks: The Animated Series" DVDs. And yes my cat Dante is named after the character in the movie. Although his personality is more like Randal.
