I might have some photos for you in the next couple of days. Been knitting, but also been vacationing, which has included non-fibery pursuits, like watching wildlife walk through my parents’ yard, riding ATVs, and shooting handguns. There may be more of all of those, along with hiking and sightseeing around Monument Valley, [...]

KIRI
Thanks to Blogless Kathryn, who took charge when I was getting ready to flee the country, I have photos of the Kiri shawl that I knit back in March. And thanks to my complicated yet uncoordinated system of an ancient personal laptop from 2000 and a work laptop that has no CD-ROM drive, it’s [...]

RAVELRY
Yes I jumped on the bandwagon and joined Ravelry last week or so. If you are on there, leave me a comment or just go add me to your friends. My username is heatherknits (shocking, I know!).
DESTASH

I’m bored with all my knitting projects. And after sitting at a computer all day, I haven’t wanted to blog. There’s been progress on a few things… nothing that I am super excited with, and nothing summery and finished.
In between not knitting, working, and making innumerable visits to medical establishments lately (neither the [...]

I wanted to swatch for Demi even though this is too warm a project to be working on just now – the AC isn’t on yet in my apartment so scratchy wool is definitely not the material of choice. But there’s no harm in swatching, right? I love the texture in this sweater, [...]

Last weekend, I got a voicemail from James, saying, I’m at the wedding right now and I’m wearing the kilt with the kilt hose, and they fit like a glove! Thank you!
Yes, that was a very nice message to get. And Amber of course did a photo shoot of the hose with their intended [...]

Yesterday I went to see the film Waitress with some ladies from the SnB, and after following that up with eating some pie – obligatory after this film, I think – I arrived home to find a package on my doorstep. The package was not a surprise, but I’d been mainly anticipating that book.
