Shine On: The agony of defeat....
http://instantkarmagirl.blogspot.com/2006/02/agony-of-defeat.html
Monday, February 13, 2006. The agony of defeat. Not being into guilt, I told myself to just persevere with the stole and whatever was done by the end of the Olympics would be good enough. I resumed with row 11 on Saturday (day 2). I followed the pattern carefully but end up with one too few stitches at the end of the row. I gave up. On Sunday, feeling back in the flow, I started to pick apart row 11 - well, you know lace - I dropped a yarnover somewhere and that was it! Is my Olympic career over?

Shine On: May 2005

Monday, May 23, 2005. You gotta let go you know. I saved these song lyrics as a draft on May 23rd and totally forgot about it. It's from one of my favorite albums (yes, album! Called Blows Against the Empire - by some of the members of Jefferson Airplane and some guest musicians. It's a science fiction story by Paul Kantner about a group of hippies getting on a starship and flying away from the conversative America of Richard Nixon (it was released in 1970, can you tell? On the deck of the starship.

Shine On: October 2005
http://instantkarmagirl.blogspot.com/2005_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 28, 2005. I'm woefully behind in showing you the wonderful packages from my secret pal. 3 skeins of Knit Picks Alpaca Cloud in Iris. 3 skeins of Knit Picks Alpaca Cloud in Sand. 3 skeins of Knit Picks Gossamer in Blue Jeans. A pattern for a Faroese Peaks Shawl. AND Meg Swanson's lace knitting book. The yarn is absolutely gorgeous and I have to admit I am eyeing the Shetland Triangle pattern in Wrap Styles for one of the yarns. And one from today, just in time for the cold weather:.

Shine On: August 2005
http://instantkarmagirl.blogspot.com/2005_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 30, 2005. I got silence on my radio, let the airwaves flow. In any case - I love the music of my generation - early 60s to late 70s - in all its depth and breadth. It fills me with a joy that I don't experience from much else and have never been able to explain that feeling - I try to get people to listen to my favorites but they never seem to have the same reaction that I do. Recorded in March and May, 1970. Released April 23, 1971 on the album Sticky Fingers. Lead Vocals: Mick Jagger.

Monday, March 28, 2005. Acoustic music at Perk's. A night of audio charisma. Scroll down to the 9th review) at Perk's Coffeehouse in Norwood as A (on the left) plays with his friend Mr. Curt. And another great review of A's new CD (and Mr. Curt's) in the local Metronome mag - quotes to come later when I get my hands on a copy. Check out their artist pages at Low Budget Records. I'm a proud wife tonight. On the knitting front, still no pictures to show, but I am getting moving on my ribby cardi. It's a gr...

http://instantkarmagirl.blogspot.com/2006/02/going-for-gold.html
Friday, February 10, 2006. Going for the Gold. It's kind of last minute but I've decided to join Team Boston for the Knitting Olympics (and it seemed a good reason to resurrect the blog). I'll be competing in the Hanging Garden Lace Stole. Competition - #3 needles and a very lovely laceweight Alpaca (given to me by my "no longer secret" pal Puma Momma. It's been a long time since I've knitted lace and I sure didn't train properly. Posted by ik girl @ 9:58 AM. Go, go, go! View my complete profile.
