We're in it Now
New batch of fleece from Penny. This is a pattern I haven’t seen before: Edged in Loops & Threads Impeccable yarn in Aqua, which I am pretty sure was leftover from a previous project. But I am too lazy to go back and look… Continue Reading “Blanket 42”
Michael’s finally starting putting their house yarn on sale again, so I tried the Charisma line: Three skeins of Black Raspberry (the variegated) and seven skeins of Fuchsia. Single crochet. My mother thinks this is awfully heavy, and perhaps it is for a little kid.… Continue Reading “Blanket 41”

Barbie fleece? Really? Wat would one reasonably do with that? Kiddie pajamas, maybe? She looked less slutty than usual, anyway. The yarn was Loops & Threads Silky Soft in Magenta. I don’t think they even make it anymore, because I haven’t seen it at… Continue Reading “Blanket 34”
Last Friday, I took Alex and Ainslie to the library. I pushed Ainslie in the stroller and Alex rode his scooter. He lost his control going down a hill and wiped out. He knew he was going to wipe out and managed to… Continue Reading “Weekend in Review”
