Knittin' Jazz: January 2008

http://knittinjazz.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html

Knitting with enthusiasm and a bit of nonsense. Thursday, January 31, 2008. Time to check in with the Resolutions made 31 days ago. First the good news, I have worn my hand knit socks every day. On the day I needed to 'dress up' it was rainy so I wore my 'dress' boots and my casual sock secret was safely hidden. So resolutions for February? I think they should be about love - since this is St. Valentine's month. Try to love walking? That's easy to fudge. Try finishing the afghan? Tuesday, January 29, 2008.

On The House: November 2008

http://onthehouse-janet.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html

Friday, November 21, 2008. I went for a my first bone density scan and got a big surprise - I have osteopenia. It is simply the indication that bone loss has occurred and therefore preventative measures need to be taken. Maximum bone mineral density is achieved at 30 and after that it's all down hill. Diet, exercise, illness and certain medications can accelerate bone loss. How do I solve this mystery? I wonder if nursing 4 kids for a year each contributed? I've heard that drinking 2% milk doesn't give y...

Knittin' Jazz: A change of heart

http://knittinjazz.blogspot.com/2008/02/change-of-heart.html

Knitting with enthusiasm and a bit of nonsense. Monday, February 11, 2008. A change of heart. Branching Out was my first lace project and I loved the challenge and the result! The yarn is Dream in Color Smooshy. Lovely to work as it is soft and just stretchy enough to make the YO's and k2tog easy. Yep, I'm just fine with that. In fact I can hardly wait to complete the current sock to cast on for Pomatomus. So many sock patterns, so little time. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Knitting Sutra: FO: My So-Called Awesome Woven Rattan Stitch Wollmeise Scarf

http://akaijen.typepad.com/jen_knits/2007/11/fo-my-so-called.html

Laquo; FO: Minty Fresh Bathmat. November 07, 2007. FO: My So-Called Awesome Woven Rattan Stitch Wollmeise Scarf. The colors. The smoosh. I have no words. For the post with the close-up shot. Woven Rattan Stitch (aka My-So Called Scarf). Wollmeise Merino-Lammdochtwolle (worsted), Krauterbeet. Well, not a mod per se. The other day I was flipping through my copy of Vogue Stitchionary Vol. 1. I think not. So, my only mod is to give the scarf it's proper name, Woven Rattan Stitch. Musings on a Perfect Knit.

Knitting Sutra: FO: Little Miss Muffet Beret

http://akaijen.typepad.com/jen_knits/2007/11/fo-little-miss-.html

Laquo; FO: Universal Headband - Star Stitch Version. In Memoriam: Gigi Silva ». November 12, 2007. FO: Little Miss Muffet Beret. And another one down. Another one down. Rollin' Beret from Wooly Wormhead. Misti Baby Alpaca Chunky, Aquamarine. I've been lusting for this yarn for awhile, and generally keeping my eye out for something to knit with it. I don't need a sweater or a wrap, so I'd been a little stumped. Then cute berets and beanies started appearing on the knit interwebs, and of course. Naturally ...

Knittin' Jazz: Stitches West 2008

http://knittinjazz.blogspot.com/2008/02/stitches-west-2008.html

Knitting with enthusiasm and a bit of nonsense. Friday, February 22, 2008. My first Stitches yarn orgy, I mean festival. Yes there was yarn you wanted to roll around in, so orgy did come to mind. We arrived before 9 am and waited in line for the ticket window to open. We - my DH and I. This was my Valentine's present. DH drove and stayed with me during the dazzling day. He was great company and help. First stop was of course, Ravelry. Casey and Jess - delightful to meet these friendly founders! But the m...

Knittin' Jazz: Keepin' the faith

http://knittinjazz.blogspot.com/2008/02/keepin-faith.html

Knitting with enthusiasm and a bit of nonsense. Friday, February 1, 2008. Is knitting just that addictive? Seems to be. Most of my projects are practical and I use every one. At any one time in the winter I'm probably wearing socks and pulsewarmers and possibly a hat - yes inside. We've chosen to keep the furnace off and it gets chilly. Yes. Even. in. California! So, chin up. Stop blogging and get to knitting. See how addictive the online knitting community is! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
