Where do weeks go? It has been three weeks or so since I blogged! I just checked my google reader list and there are 165 unread posts! Eeek! Of course there has been knitting. I have finished one sock, and have two more socks on the go. I would like to finish the stripy pair [...]

This is one of my all time favourite songs, although it is a bit depressing I guess! The song came to mind this morning whilst watching the morning news. Just thought I would share the song – the film clip is absolutely awesome! Let’s see. Knitting news . . . I finished the Shalom Cardigan, [...]

I am sitting here in my chair, being so incredibly lazy today! So lazy that I am watching/listening to some kind of tribute to the ABC covering ANZAC marches. It is not ANZAC Day, and the program is a year old, so it is actually 51 years of coverage . . . I usually quite [...]

we interrupt our regular socks . . .

Don’t be alarmed! It’s still me. I just needed a change! Do you like it? I have been adding and subtracting on the side bar as well; updating some FOs and the like. Note the KAL I have joined – this might help me keep on track for Christmas socks! My badge for this post: [...]

the winds of change

seem to blowing around here at the moment. I have become somewhat obsessed with shawls. I have no idea why this has happened to me, although some of the blame must lie with Ravelry. I keep looking at other people’s work. There is some beautiful stuff out there! At the moment I have two shawls [...]

On and off for the past few weeks I have been feeling pretty dreadful. I finally dragged myself to the doctor last night after realising it is not normal to almost die walking up and down stairs. I have the flu. The real flu, not just a cold or something, but the aching body sore [...]

i succumbed

Posted by: amanda j on: July 20, 2007

Oh dear. I was supposed to wait for the end of July to buy yarn, but I cracked today. I went on an excursion into the city (anyone see lots of kids in uniform in Launceston today? That was me!) and the kids were off on their own and I had to buy some yarn [...]

reclaiming the mojo

Posted by: amanda j on: May 30, 2007

I have fixed my knitting mojo! I bought yarn! Yay! (Well, at least I think this will help with the Sockapalooza problems). Those of us in Australia have known about The Knittery for some time. Their yarns are absolutely gorgeous. I have over time bought many skeins of sock yarn, both the merino and merino [...]

shawl by myself

Posted by: amanda j on: February 17, 2007

First, let me explain why my blog looks different. Again. I got a little carried away earlier today and tried to simply add a ‘subscribe with bloglines’ button. Obviously as a website manager I make a terrific knitter. My side bar broke into bits. Literally. I had little floating bits of green all over the [...]
