Ten on Tuesday ~ in which I join the MEME

There are a lot of blog MEMEs out there. We all know this. I have even done several of them. For some time now I have watched as 2 (or more, I forget) of the people whose blogs I follow do the Ten on Tuesday. And often, I’ve thought, “I should join that one. It [...]

WiP Weds ~ 1.25.12

Here is a WiP post, since it’s Wednesday! I’m trying to stick to a semblance of a blogging schedule, but so far this year it hasn’t turned out so great. But there’s a post today, and there will almost certainly be a post on Friday, so that’s a start. First off, the WIP closest to [...]

Friday FO: iPhone Sock

Why does my iPhone need a sock, you ask? Well, because I had a different cover on it, but it broke. (And not because I dropped it. The bottom edge, which was removable for docking and such, was apparently not designed to be removed often, because that’s where it broke.) So I was using no [...]

FOs for 2012

I would like to finish making 12 things (or more) in 2012. So that I don’t forget, here’s a running list of what I’ve finished: iPhone Sock Last of the Sky Pirates mitts February Fetchings Slouchy Hat Itty Bitty Bunnies Waterfall Socks Wrenna

WIP Weds

It seems like I’m just starting one new project after another this year. The newest project is one that I won’t be sharing fully with you until it’s finished. Not because it’s a gift or stealth knitting, but because it’s a part of a mystery KAL and we’ve been asked not to post pictures of [...]

Impressions of Walt Disney World 5: Disney’s Animal Kingdom

My favorite of the Walt Disney World parks was Disney’s Animal Kingdom. There were many reasons for this… It’s the most different of the parks, and the most UNLIKE what we have here in California. DAK is the most immersive of the parks. While there are different lands, they all have the same wild feel [...]

Resolved — or not

I am not making resolutions this year. I am also not looking at my resolutions from last year to see how I did. My goals for the year changed throughout the year, so the things I had wanted to accomplish in January 2011 are not the things I wanted to have accomplished by December 2011. [...]

Impressions of Walt Disney World 4: Hollywood Studios

I think the park that surprised me the most was Disney’s Hollywood Studios. And it didn’t necessarily surprise me in an “I like this!” kind of way, it just was surprising. Neither a good nor bad surprise. The biggest surprise was how similar it felt to Disney California Adventure in Anaheim. (Yes, I know, DCA [...]

A New WIP For the New Year

Two new WIPs, actually. First up, the one I started first: the Last of the Sky Pirates Mitts by Maggie Fangman. (I don’t have buttons for them yet, so a knitting needle is holding the button flap together so I can model it.) These are a fun knit, and have gone pretty quickly so far. [...]
