Wild week

Posted on September 5, 2009 | Comments Off on Wild week

I have absolutely no news on the crafting front, since my workweek was insane. The weather, however, is beautiful.

That’s all I’ve got.

…and we’re back, I hope…

It’s been a crazy few months, but we’re ready here to start again with new designs and plenty of other goodies. for starters, check these guys out: Snowpeople.

This the the same pattern I used to make these little guys and gals.

I apologize for the lack of front-page pics, but I’ve been having image-uploading issues and haven’t gotten a chance to play with flickr recently. Hopefully all of that will be fixed soon, along with an updated blogroll and some other upgrades.

Restructuring

Posted on April 15, 2009 | 1 comment

There have been some crazy-big changes in my life over the last few months, and that’s caused me to reconsider my strategy for keeping the business and the blog going. I promise you we will eventually have some content around here! LOL. But I’m going to take a week or two at this point and restructure my web presence a bit. Stay tuned…

Be back in a few days. A weekend without the internet? Crazy talk! But here it is.

Moving the computer. I have a few things I want to take care of first, because I hate to leave folks hanging. But it’s time to vacation-ize the Etsy shop for a few days and shut this thing down. Might be a little weird, but I think I can live with it.

Cast on for a new pair of socks yesterday. Yay! I’m trying out my brand-shiny-new 4″ Harmony dpns, and so far I’m a fan…might switch back to the 6″ when there’s more fabric to manage, but I’m not sure. We’ll see. Forest Canopy is coming along beautifully. I am so in love with both yarn and pattern!

I really need to dig through my WIP basket and see what’s up there. I haven’t been using my Rav notebook to its full potential for a while now…time to actually take advantage of it again and see if I can get some things finished! I have a terrible hankering to start another shawl, which would mean picking more yarn, and I’m trying to resist because I really don’t have the money…maybe I can make a deal with myself. *grin*

Anyway, I’ll post when we reach the away-for-a-few-days point here.

So excited!

I got home last night and immediately ordered myself a skein of this: Knitivity Dura-Lace. I adore the yarns I’ve gotten from Ray and I can’t wait to see this one. Yay!

Hi there!

Posted on March 26, 2009 | 1 comment

It’s been a long few months, with big personal changes and the utter chaos that those can bring. Now that things are closer to moving in some direction rather than just flailing about wildly, I wanted to return to the blog if for no other reason than to talk about all of the fun I’m having knitting in the few moments I can manage to steal in my current schedule. I recently finished my first pair of socks, for one thing, my first lace project is underway, and I finally made a trip to WEBS a few weeks ago.

Still have to kick the camera into working, but stay tuned…

Sigh.

Posted on December 31, 2008 | Comments Off on Sigh.

I was hoping to end the year around here on a more inspired note, but there has just simply been so much going on in the non-blog, non-fiber world for me that I’ve got nothing to talk about here. I’m very much hoping that will change in 2009.

To anyone still wandering through: Happy New Year, and may the next year be kind to you and yours.

Still here!

I’d forgotten just how exhausting it is to work retail at the holidays. Yikes.

Anyway, for kicks and to see how it works out (and because I think a little competition might be good for Etsy), I opened an ArtFire shop: Neatly Tangled. Had a sale already, which I’m going to take as a very good sign, seeing as how I’ve only managed to list two patterns.

I hope the holidays are bringing you joy rather than the appallingly common misery.
