Knitting Right Along 20 May 06


We’re going for a double header at this very late hour, so here’s so knitting updates that I’ve been meaning to put up.

I just received my Smores yarn from Scout, and I am completely in love with it. I made a small swatch to determine the appropriate gauge for socks, and it looks really great. I can’t wait to start working with it. :)

Also, I’m finishing up my 2nd sock for my pair of ribbed Thuja socks, from Knitty. I really like this pattern and will probably use it to make myself N pairs of nice socks for keeping my feet warm and wearing to work with fancy shoes. And I have a few family members requesting some socks of their own. ;)

Also, my Mom is finished with the bag portion of her Garden Party Bag, and it looks awesome! We felted it the other night, and it’s so fuzzy! It’s going to look super sweet with all the flowers and the cool handles she ordered. I think she may even end up getting orders from the rest of the master gardeners, because they’ll all want one of their own!

And what post is complete without a picture of Emma? Here she is getting ready to walk a course in Agility class this past week. We’re really digging the agility thing: she’s having a blast, and so am I!

I think that about rounds off the updates for me, and it’s late, so I’m going to hit the hay. Also, the blog’s theme is getting closer everyday to what I have in my head, and I’m pretty much done, save for a bunch of minor stylesheet tweaks. I have yet to test it on Internet Explorer/Windows, so if there’s major problems, leave a comment so I can fix them promptly.

Good Night!

    I’m running IE 6.0.2900, and the sidebar now apears below the last blog entry on the page. Making the window size wider does not affect its placement at all.

    I hope this is helpful–I recently looked at the page in Safari, and I have to say, the difference is impressive!
