In the words of Pepe le Pew’s most feline paramour, le pant, le puff, le pant, le puff! We’re getting there. Really, we are. The big move is days away, and we’re working our collective tuchus off. At the end of the day, there’s not a lot of brain juice left for my knitting. So…
when i should be working
How do, everyone? Glad to be back among the mostly living. I’m busy-busy as we near the moving date, but as Rob mentioned at Black Dog this morning, there are some things in the works. First, yes, we sat around and watched TV with our friend Christy last night. She’s been as busy as we…
Lest anyone forget: Preppy Confessions
Hi, My name is Matt, and I’m a… *nervous cough* I’m a Preppy. God, people!! You’re supposed to say, "Hi, Matt," and make me feel all welcome about it. Well, all right. I don’t exactly have the full wardrobe anymore, but then again, I don’t really have a full wardrobe anymore. If I did, rest…
Socks, Tanks, and a Miniature Fair Isle
Well, thanks to everyone for the kind words about the Sigma Tank. I hope everyone who knits one (and everyone who wears one) enjoys it thoroughly. But frankly, I’m more proud at the moment that I finally finished my Aslan socks! The poor things languished in my project basket for ages while I got other…
Free at last… free at last
Have you ever come to one of those times in your life when you felt like all of the work you’d been putting out there was really starting to come back to you? Liberating, isn’t it? Have you ever had a secret that you were monumentally excited about but hadto keep under wraps? Remember how…
A little catchin’ up to do
I know. I know. If I couldn’t have gotten it posted earlier I would have. But that’s life for you. Hi, everybody! I actually started a post ten days ago, but well… that didn’t happen. So what I’m going to do is cull my photo folder and see what’s been going on that’s taken up…
Stasia’s questions
Just in case the TagBoard cycles through and you miss the Q&A, let me offer you a little background. Apparently, Stasia of Stasia’s Place of Grace was referred to yours truly by Kary of Kary’s Musings to check out the Rambling Rows afghan of Rachel’s that I posted last week. Stasia mentioned several things, and…
Reordering my little corner of the universe
Yes, I suppose it does sound somewhat grandiose, but by God, I’ve had it with all the detritus that has plugged up my energy lately. I need flow! A little esoteric for you? Ok. The house is a wreck, I’m a wreck, my knitting isn’t getting done, and all of the wonderful things that I’ve…
Post-Apocalyptic Regrouping
Hallelujah! The month’s almost over, and I’m finally starting to really regroup after our several weeks of nonstop running. I thoroughly enjoyed the Broadripple Art Fair and our recent trip to Evansville, but it’s good to be home. The chaos is slowly beginning to show the influence of order, and what was a minefield of…
The Once and Future Blogger
Whew! I’m back! Howdy, folks. How’s everybody been? I’m doing all right despite a little freak back pain, but otherwise, I think everything’s getting back to normal… well… Ok. Not really. Let’s just say that normal has been redefined. First, let me tell you that our volume of sales at ThreadBear is through the roof.…
