I think I’m finished with The View. I should clarify that I’m not a huge fan, but I need to have sound while I’m working and my wee LCD television does a great job of providing sound. However, Elizabeth Hasselback has really got to stop with the blind hero worship of all things [...]
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh. Last night we slept in our own bed, with no one else in the house, for the first time in, I think, three weeks. David’s cousin stayed with us for several days back in the middle of May. While he was still here, I went to Denver to see my Jessika. [...]
We had a meeting in the City on Monday afternoon. When we got in the car the thermometer read 99 degrees. As we crossed the bridge I looked up and it read 68 degrees. Yes, people the temperature fell 31 degrees in less than eleven miles. How is a girl supposed [...]
Isn’t it about time I finished something I’ve started? Yeah, I think so too. So without further ado I present the new headquarters for Creativewares. Which is really just me.

Still with the extra long wrap. I added about 9 inches last night. Even though everything went ape on LOST last night, it still wasn’t enough to compel me to put down the needles. So it’s about 22 inches long now. Just another 58 to go!! The allergy medicines, making [...]

I am a very big fan of natural fibers. I’ve recently done projects in silk, alpaca, and merino wool. I’m currently working with 100% cotton. I’m not a big fan of acrylic, not so much because I’m [...]
“What is that?”, you ask? It’s evidence that I slept diagonally last night. In the middle of our California king-sized bed. It’s a very big bed for one person. David is away on a camping trip with his brother. The kind of camping trip “where you don’t bring cheese [...]
I should stop calling it the super-long wrap and start calling it the “I’m not yet sleepy.” wrap. I cast on the other day when I wasn’t yet sleepy and last night I picked it up because I wasn’t yet sleepy. I absolutely love the yarn. It’s soft and feels so wonderful [...]
Cast on last night while waiting to get sleepy …
It will eventually be the “Superlong Wrap” from the Knitting to Go deck of patterns. I upped the needles to 11’s and substituted Nature Cotton. It’ll go to David’s stepmom when it’s finished. Because I’m a giver that way. No matter that [...]
A few weeks ago a friend’s mom went into the hospital. not knowing what to do I picked up my needles and started working. Now that my friend has it, I can post pictures!
6′3″ David modeling it.
My coffee table modeling it.
My friend is a big fan of acrylic yarn and bright colors, so I [...]
