A WiP post…
good thing she’s smaller than me, or I might not be able to give away this sweater….
another one bites the dust! Two Amy Herzog sweaters in about 6 weeks’ time. Pret-ty, pret-ty, pret-ty good.
this may signal a shift from knitting to non-knitting posts……there’s a lot of interesting stuff coming up!
this’ll be the last WiP shot for my newest sweater: next stop, FO!
lots of making in my household lately. and making = happy.
i don’t usually do WiP Wednesdays, but I’m in a rush and this was easy!
like Van Morrison says: Put a smile on my face, get back in the human race, on a golden autumn day.
busy, busy, busy. getting shit done. my kind of gorgeous day!
nah nah nah nah nah nah — they say it’s my birthday (eve) — well happy birthday (eve) to ya (me). never mind. Eat cake!!
green is katie’s favorite color, so i think of her with every stitch (like i need a reason to think of her….)

blue skies, smiling at me / nothing but blue skies, do i see. / blue birds, singing a song / nothing but blue birds, all day long.
how long has it been since I had a finished object! finally — meet my beautiful new shawl:
how is it already mid-June?! Who knows where the time goes?
Would ya like to buy an o? No? Then could I interest you in a 9?
everything just came together and i had to do it.
oh happy, sunny day. oh how i’ve missed you.
Sunny day, sweeping the clouds away / On my way to where the air is sweet, can you tell me how to get, how to get to, wait. This has nothing to do with Sesame Street.
La bella luna! The moon brings the woman to the man. Capice?
the first FO of 2011 that isn’t blue! WHEE!!

i love these two things and have to give them away. it’s the PROCESS it’s the PROCESS it’s the PROCESS (repeat over and over until I convince myself…..)
