Just a quick post today, mainly for record-keeping purposes and to keep me in the running for the Jaywalker KAL.
Obviously, this pattern has been vexing me. I suppose I should expect difficulties with a pattern named Jaywalker: someone who is willfully breaking the law.
Anyway, I did get one sock finished over this past weekend (yay [...]

Am I a dork because I got excited about receiving an email from Wendy of Wendyknits? (She responded to a comment I left via email.) Am I a dork because I use the word dork?
I’ve been spending more time blogging and looking at (mostly knitting) blogs lately and I’m struck by the level of artistic [...]

How. Dare. You.
Who do you think you are, Jaywalker?
Let’s get this straight: I’m the knitter.
If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t even be here.
You better straighten up and fly right, buster. Or else.
Sure. Like you’ve never talked to your knitting this way. Or at least you’ve wanted to. Admit it.

It occurred to me that I have no buttons on my blog. So, I’m out to remedy that today. I mean, what’s a blog without buttons, right? It seems so…naked, right?

Well, I made it back from Cleveland in one piece and I finally got my pedicure, too. Woohoo!!
Even though I was in a nice, comfy hotel, I slept poorly Friday night. I was quite exhausted when I made it back home, but still had to keep some appointments and commitments. So, it was no surprise [...]

Greetings from Cleveland! Here I sit, in a hastily booked hotel room, experiencing a second quiet night by myself. I should be at home right now, getting ready to enjoy a bottle of wine and some homemade pizza with my husband. That’s my usual Friday night, and I like it very much. But the weather [...]

I’m making decent progress, aren’t I? I can’t help but feel that I should have more than this done, though.
Yesterday I had a lot of errands to run, so I got in less knitting than I wanted to. Today was a holiday, so I didn’t have to go to the office. I was hoping to [...]

I regularly check out certain blogs. You can see the list of them over there on the right. So, did one of them mention something about a Jaywalker Knit Along? I don’t think so. It seems that I have stumbled onto the latest knitting fad all on my own.
What you see here is a [...]

The above photos were taken on my recent trip to Washington, D.C. These were taken in the Library of Congress building, a gorgeous structure and a venerable institution. I just loved the Library of Congress and took oodles of photos of it, including a few shots of the elaborate ceilings.
For a while there, I [...]

When I was in high school I worked on the Yearbook one year . While I had no problems at all in writing stories, I always had difficulty coming up with headlines and succinct captions for the photos. Every time I think about starting a blog entry, it seems like I spend about 10 minutes [...]
