I finished my Highland Triangle Shawl (Folk Shawls)! On Thursday, I sat at Borealis Yarns to knit because I wanted to be sure that I attached the border correctly at the center. They have a store sample there for me to fondle and look at.
While I was there, I asked their opinion on [...]

Secret Pal Gifts!
Posted in Knitting Links, Secret Pal 5 on July 27, 2005 | 2 Comments »
I received my July gifts for the Secret Pal 5 thang, and was so excited. Emailed my giftee right away, and told her I would be gushing on the blog right away. Then life happened and now some time has passed. Only about a week – but still.
My gifts came in the [...]
Life’s Little Pleasures
Posted in Knitting Links, Zen on July 22, 2005 | 7 Comments »
Life’s Little Pleasures. I think that was a song that ended up being a ditty for a bean commercial. Life is strange isn’t it? It is also very wonderful, and the little things really can mean a lot.
Yesterday I had a great day. I kicked back for a bit at home. [...]
Do You Really Need a Picture?

Yes, I am one of the hoards of people that received their Harry Potter books.
I don’t think I need to show you a photo of the cover, you have probably seen it on just about every blog known to humankind.
The book arrived yesterday while I was teaching a Reiki healing class. As soon as [...]
Borders Have Been Started

I finished the triangle of the Highland Triangle shawl. Next was to pick-up and start working on the many borders/edging of the shawl.
I had to change the pickup formula a bit to get the correct number of stitches for each side, but it is one of those things knitters know about…. sometimes you just [...]
Picnic!
Posted in Knitting Links on July 9, 2005 | 3 Comments »
I hate picnics. My feeling is that one should just eat at home and then go out and play in the sun and air. Why schlep your stuff around and risk bugs in your food?
However, tomorrow is the Twin Cities’ SnB Picnic and I will be so much going and enjoying it!
I [...]
Back in the Beading Saddle
Posted in Knitting Links on July 8, 2005 | 5 Comments »
Have you ever been in a slump with one of your hobbies? That happens to me, so far only with my beadwork because that is the one that I have been doing long enough.
The last time I was in a beadwork slump I got myself out of it by taking up beaded knitted amulet [...]
Redo and Renew

So much to say. First, thanks to my blog friends who keep me in touch with what is happening in the world.
I don’t watch the news, and sometimes go days without listening to the radio, especially when I am on vacation. I heard about 9/11 from a friend, and I heard about the [...]
