Wednesday, May 04, 2005 ( 11:45 AM ) Jayme i'm alive! really, i am. just been working and sort of knitting. and spinning! oh my poor wheel, the wooden knob-thingy that adjusts the bobbin brake broke! i can still sort of spin on it, but i wonder if they make replacement knobs or if i have to take it straight to gord lendrum himself... (i would put in links if i had the time to look them all up. just about everything i'm referring to is online and google-able.) knitting: ran out of yarn for my alpaca cowl. made three coifs, only one is shocking pink. started the branching out scarf in hot pink cotton from blue sky alpacas. it started as a swatch to try the lace out, but i really like the way it's turning out, so i'll probably buy another hank to finish it. if i'm not tired of the pattern by then, i'll make another one out of rowanspun dk in green. started a minisweater for my sister so she can wear her tank tops to school without violating the dress code. now that i think about it, maybe i should make one for me so i can wear my tanks to the office. or just knit myself a cardigan. mostly little things at the moment, so i can take them to work. thinking of shrugs and things too. or the hot lava cardigan. spinning: too tired to try and spin fingering/laceweight most days, so i dug up the datepalm? roving from handpaintedyarn.com that i bought myself for my birthday and wheel-spun that up while watching cheesy movies with nicole and summers. keeping nicole entertained while she recovered from wisdom teeth removal. plied it on the spindle and wheel. i think i got a sport/light worsted yarn out of the 3.5 oz i got. don't know what to do with that either. that's the most of it. met corrinne may at the kava lounge on april 25, brought the knitting and the spinning. told her i discovered her through a knitblog. now she's sorta thinking of taking up knitting. hehe. went to disneyland and california adventure with my best friends on april 15 (pictures: http://www.huzzuh.net/jayme/photos/disneyland ) knit on the way up. should have brought knitting for standing in line (2 hours for splash mountain!). tower of terror is one of the best rides ever! (didn't have time for california screamin'.) so yeah. lots of work. trying to fit in some time at the gym. still knitting. always knitting. time for lunch! # |
