Though I haven’t posted in a while, I have still
been knitting. I finished a tivoli shirt (designed by grumperina)
and have started a rogue hooded sweater from the girlfromauntie. I am making the cardigan-ized version which means that i can’t knit it in the round so it involves more purling than I would like.
And for a fun read you should visit Ashlee. I just finished sending her gifts for the Secret Pal 5 program.
Chocolate and Koigu. aaahhhh….
perfect. What do you think I should make wiith it? Socks? It really seems too
nice to use for socks.. Thanks secret pal! And tell your dad I said thanks
too

i bet you thought you were never going to have to hear about our hideous booties again
you might remember that a little while ago sarah and i knit some really awful booties (you can refresh your memory here).

washing the babies. My favorite suggestion is this:
A mitten for a hitch hiker. Too perfect.
