Short post tonight… It is almost 1am and I am really tired, but I finished the body of Wicked. It fits! Here I will show you… Sorry Kelly! (I will make another on if green for you if you want!) Now I just have to do the sleeves. After talking it over with the Chicken [...]

Wicked Progress
Posted in contemplation, knitting, me on February 23, 2007 | 1 Comment »
Sitting here watching is snow and knitting while the little schmoo is sleeping – that is pure bliss. Do not get me wrong I am terribly ready for spring, but snowy weather is the best for knitting. I am really trying to get Wicked done because I have to get the other little schmoo [...]
Something Wicked This Way Comes…
Posted in knitting, little schmoo, rants on February 20, 2007 | 2 Comments »
I have separated the body and the sleeves for Wicked and I am on the body! Woo-hoo…. I really think that I must be a really slow knitter. I am not able to crank out FO’s with the speed of some people out there (Green Apples). That girl is FAST… Oh, well… I am also [...]
Ripping and Starting New
Posted in knitting, socks on February 17, 2007 | 1 Comment »
So, I ripped the Blue Sky Cropped Cardigan, and I don’t think that I will be starting it again anytime soon. I was so very upset by the size and just the way it looked. I am sure it was something that I did. I still want a brown cardigan! So, I am looking for [...]
We have a winner

Well, we have someone who was very close! That is good enough for me.
Congratulations Christine! Your guess of 91 grams was very close! I even have the proof – wait let me go take a picture of it on the scale. Email me your address and I will send the stitch markers to you this [...]
Gauge? Or, what in heck is going on here?
Posted in knitting, little schmoo, socks on February 14, 2007 | 11 Comments »
So, I had such a hard time getting the right gauge with the Blue Sky Cropped Cardigan that I almost tore up the pattern and chucked it in the trash can. Ugh. Finally, I got it! I am almost done with the raglan increases and about to separate for the arms. I am going to [...]
First Schmoo Sock
Posted in knitting, little schmoo, socks on February 11, 2007 | 2 Comments »
Here it is the first sock for the February installment of Socktopia! It is for my little schmoo, and I picked the theme of short and sweet – because the socks are short and sweet and so is my little schmoo.
They are knit in Bearfoot Mountain Colors in the Bittersweet Rainbow colorway. I think they [...]
WP problems
Posted in Uncategorized on February 9, 2007 | 1 Comment »
I don’t know why but half of the last post was deleted, and I really don’t feel up to re-typing it… so you just get pictures….
The other thing that WP deleted… Well, I will re-type that because it makes me happy to think about it.
The little schmoo and I had a great day today. We [...]
In progress

Well, I am knitting some things… These are things that I have had on the needles for quite some time. I will start with the oldest one.
This lovely – the Dream Swatch - I hate to admit it, it has been on the needles since July ‘06. I work a couple of rows, and it goes [...]
Momma don’t get breaks
Posted in Uncategorized on February 6, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Obviously, because I tried to sit down and do some homework and as soon as I was getting somewhere I hear the little schmoo start to cry and wonder what is the matter with him. He comes out of his room not wearing a diaper…. drum roll please… I smell something bad, and there is [...]
