A BMFA Friday

It was a Blue Moon Fiber Arts Friday here. My Socks That Rock, from the Rockin’ Sock Club finally showed up. I went down to the mail box and there was a little slip telling me that there was a package in the Club House for me. I grabed the slip, left everything esle in [...]

48 stitches

I’ve managed to lose my drivers license. So, what has this got to do with 48 stitches you may be wondering. Well, in CA you have to spend quite a bit of time at the DMV in this situation, or in any situation that you need to go to the DMV, well more than 48 [...]

New Knitting Bag

I really couldn’t help it, I didn’t mean to buy it. Heck, I didn’t even mean to walk into my LYS. I was out mailing packages, who knew the Post Office was just around the corner from my LYS. I sure didn’t until I got there. So I mailed off my packages, got in the [...]

Thursday Randoms

I ventured out last night even though it was snowing here. I had called DH and it wasn’t snowing at his work, so I figured no problem. Got to the SnB and there wasn’t even so much as a snow flake . This whack of knitters meet in a mall, in the food court area. [...]
