Update

Hello and happy Sunday, Veterans Day and

Remembrance Day! I hope your weekend is

going fantastic! 

Today I thought I would do some updating on

my sites... I still have much work to do and

more designing for my sites. I will be doing a 

logo of some sort & hope to get that done this week 

I added a little bio on my Etsy shop site... but

still more to do yet. I am lost at the moment...

trying to do too many things at once! (as usual) ;)  

I finished a twisty cowl that I have been hand

knitting on some circular needles...it's a very 

nice variegated yarn..reminds me of my favorite 

artist, Monet, with the pretty colors.  I will be posting

it after I get the ends finished off and such.

I don't particularly like knitting with circular needles

because I am not your average knitter, I am a 

strange knitter, I like speed!  So what I usually

do is put the straight needle between my legs and hold

it there while knitting with the other needle.

When I do this, I can knit very fast...it looks funny, 

I can imagine and I can't be wearing a dress... lol!! 

I wonder what all those people at the cancer clinic 
thought of me in the waiting room, The cancer
center in Edmonton has balls of yarn
and needles there, so anyone can knit for
charity while waiting for your treatments.
They must have thought I was nuts...especially
when I came out in my hospital gown and
said to everyone...I think I'm overdressed!! 
It's a very solemn and sad place, and usually
no one speaks,  but at least we had a little chuckle 
since we were ALL in hospital gowns!! lol 

Well, at least I can get a nice tension with 

the yarn and with the needle upright... it has

better leverage for speed!! I can't do this on

circular needles...so there I am..slow as a snail... lol.

That circular needle I was using today actually

came apart on me! They are interchangable

so the tips screw on and off and you can change

your needle sizes in this way... well, there I was half

way around and all of a sudden..slip... there went

about 15 stitches dropped off... so I managed

to manuever them back together going backwards

with the tip... screwed it back together and thankfully

 I saved all those hours of work from potential rip out mode... :)  

Actually I do a lot of that... I have sooooo many 

unfinished projects that I got bored with, I must

have about 8 going at the moment in the past few

weeks, waiting there to be finished or ripped out.

Enough rambling...time to cook! :)

Enjoy your Monday!! :)
