  • happenings

    I’ve been knitting, reading Jane Eyre for the first time, watching more Friday Night Lights (starting season 4) and more knitting.

    I also hung out with some knitters from afar!

    Jess of Fig and Plum came to knit night a couple weeks ago and it was a great time. (Excuse the weird lighting.)

    And Jodi Green came by to visit while I was working – it was the first time we’d ever met, despite longtime internet acquaintance.

    I did, in fact, finish those colourwork thumbs and managed to knit linings too!

    It’s a good thing all the knitting for my soon-to-be-born pattern collection is done (these mittens will be in it), because the photoshoot is on Saturday!

    In the meanwhile I got to start a new sweater for myself out of delicious Malabrigo Rios.

    Goes great with a cuppa coffee in one of my Jennie the Potter mugs!

  • a confession

    mitten thumb

    I hate knitting colourwork mitten thumbs. They’re just so fiddly and little. Bleh.

    One down, one to go.
