oh! you pretty things

Posted by: amanda j on: March 30, 2007

I really need to get a camera! My purchases arrived! The Socks that Rock arrived today, and I am dying to take a picture of it and show off! My books are here too, I have had a very quick flick through and think they are quite fabulous. What does it say about me that I don’t [...]

a little less conversation . . .

Posted by: amanda j on: March 27, 2007

I am home from work today, with no voice again. Combine that with no camera for pictures, and things are a bit dull!
For some reason, although I registered for Secret Pal 10, I never heard from anyone. I am trying not to take it too personally. I’m sure it was just an error! Perhaps I [...]

you have to watch this

I just saw this on tv. Watch it! It is very clever and contains VAST amounts of yarn. Not only that, but it is a pretty cool song as well!

I find myself becoming slightly obsessed with finding the right title for my posts lately. All of them have been coming from my iTunes list, which at the moment consists of 1036 songs. And yet, there is little there to explain why there will be no pictures for a while.
Purl took the camera on school camp. [...]

. . . but only just. I have no voice whatsoever. Well, I can whisper, but that’s it. And I think it might just drive me insane. I am a talker. I like to talk. My job requires that I talk A LOT. At the moment, I am trying to work out how I can [...]

ebony and ivory

As promised . . . some pictures! I went to the sheepy shop Saturday morning and bought another bag of raw white fleece, and some carded washed brown fleece.
 
That’s my fleece up a tree!
Then I went to a discount store and bought a better comb than the one I had, and I combed and combed and [...]

you spin me right ’round baby

Posted by: amanda j on: March 10, 2007

I have made yarn! But I can’t show you because Purl has gone to the coast with the camera! But trust me, I have. I have spun about half a bobbin with brown fleece and I am managing to be consistent most of the time. So my next task is to spin another half a [...]

somebody stop me!

Well, the new Knitty is out. And there are socks. And Katt, there are vests and small things to knit. Now I have to lengthen my to-do list. Again. Sigh.
