My poor, frequently dropped cell phone rings through the haze of sleep.”Hello?” I manage to say.
It’s 2.05am.
“Hey babe, I just got off work fifteen minutes ago.” Said the boyfriend who I dropped off at work Sunday morning at the buttcrack of dawn. 5.36am to be specific.
“Damn, no wonder I didn’t hear from you today. […]

Gorgeous sock yarn from Lisa Souza that I hope to start on sometime soon. I’m not even sure if I’ll be starting any colours from PS 2.0 because I’m still working on unfinished projects but I had to show these off. The colour is soothing and brilliant, making me wish I was on […]

Rainy days…long hours…loud kids…and even more annoying adults. Knitting has been a very welcome escape for me despite the lack of time lately. I seem to spend a lot of time browsing online yarn stores. Here are two of my favourites.

This store is a new find for me, thanks to Lime & […]

Today was a good day…because I finally have a FO!

Finally! I think I’ve gotten the hang of the Pomatomus sock pattern. After two repeats of Chart A…it’s finally sunk in this usually absent-minded brain of mine, and I feel like I’m making some decent progress. I originally started knitting the Sweet Georgia Libertine yarn in the dragon skin pattern (that I […]

It’s November but I’m slightly confused.  Look at the temperatures we’ve been dealing with here.  It’s great yes…but I am ready for a little cool down and whatever winter has to offer here.  Seasonal changes aren’t so exciting here but I’m glad for the beautiful weather.  It’s just a little disconcerting when the temperature jumps […]

I was meaning to post more but I’m exhausted. Weekends aren’t meant for rest and relaxation but some Mondays, I’m more tired than normal.
I started this sock from Nancy Bush’s Knitting Vintage Socks. I love this book! I am knitting with Cherry Tree Hill’s Java and I’m loving the yarn. It’s […]
