Busted!

He Said She Said The Giants Are Doing Great!

Have you ever tried to take your picture when you're talking?  Well, I'm cheering the Giants on at the same time as taking my picture.  That, in itself, is a huge accomplishment as most of the time I can't walk and chew gum.   But, I wanted to show off my He Said She Said hat and cowl by ChicKnits.   I used Cascade superwash yarn.  It's not the 220, but the chunkier kind.  This is my second set.  Earlier this year I made a red one.  It's packed away for winter, though.  These knit up really quickly and they're super warm.   Edited to add:  (I think the guy right over my shoulder is posing for the camera too.  ha ha)


The AT&T Stadium is outstanding.  Here it is outside the park at night.   Where else can you see palm trees wrapped in orange lights but San Francisco??! 

If Looks Could Kill

So, I finished Meems' Giants sweater.   She doesn't look terribly thrilled, does she?   I figure it's payback for all the 3 a.m. meowing and trying to get me up to play and feed her.

I consider this my swatch to see if I like the yarn enough to make a Giants sweater for myself.  The jury is still out.

Meems is a Giants Fan Too

Meems is getting a Giants sweater. She's a stylin kind of cat, yanno. This is my time to play around to figure out how I want my Giants sweater.

Moving Forward

Apparently I got caught in a time warp and life has brought me all this way since the last post.   Unbelievable!

Life has definitely kept me busy, but not too busy to knit.  Part of my lack of posting is the feeling of being overwhelmed of where to even begin.  I miss my online knitting buddies and the comraderie.  Last night I decided that I'm going to just start with where I am and bring up projects that I've done when I think of them.

I've also been busy working on the house and painting.   Since buying the house last June (gasp - has it been nearly a year??!!) I've painted one of the bedrooms, the entry/hall way, and the dining room.  We've had two major holidays in our dining room and many people have enjoyed the meals fixed over the Thanksgiving and Christmas Holidays.  Again, pictures and tales to be told as I come across them.

I also bought a new laptop so all of my photos and files are still on my old one.  I've been busy going to the gym and I'm very happy to say I've lost a few pounds in the process.  I feel much better. 

The blog looks kind of like a mess right now, but I'll be getting that fixed, hopefully sooner than later.  Anyhoo  - just a quick post and more later.  Again, hopefully sooner than later.  :-)
