Posting today!

It's a sunny cold day in Michigan. As I was walking Corbin into day care this morning, he said "Look Mom, the snow has sparkles!" I wish I would be more conscious of those comments when they happen so I can assume wonderment with him.

Random thoughts - I need a manicure - all my nails are about equal length but won't be for long if I don't get a mani; why do I have so much to do but still I'm so, so bored; how is my daughter going to afford car insurance......

Currently I'm knitting the Spring Shawl Surprise knit along and Art Nouveau stole between clues. I started Muir, but I goofed somewhere and it was just so much easier to start something new (or Nouveau, hehe) than to tink back to fix the Muir. Does that mean I have too much stash? Definitely I'm an AD knitter.

Here's SSS














I'm also working on zebra socks for Rod as my easy-as-breathing knitting project. This is really cool yarn I got from etsy seller Spindlecat Studio.

Here's a picture of Goddess Knits last shawl of 2007 - Midwinter's eve maybe - I've forgotten what it's called. I really love this pattern, and it was fun to knit. I used a DKish weight of trelisk - not the nice organic merino trelisk but something else trelisk. I need to redo the cast off because it's too tight to block properly. I wonder if I will ever do that......hehe








Next, here's the finished Dracula's Bride.
