Another Sadly Knitless Day

February 13, 2019February 13, 2019 quiteayarnblog2 Comments

Today was crazy at work, and then it was crazy at home. I got a lot of things done, including rearranging half the furniture in my kitchen/living room. But sadly, none of those things was knitting. Tomorrow I have plans to sneak some in either at lunch or in the evening. My yarn is calling… Continue reading Another Sadly Knitless Day

We had a busy day Saturday – lots of errands and chores done, but also got to do a few fun things as well! DH and I went to a special Chinese New Year tea at the Indigo Tea Lounge here in town. The place was all decorated with red for good luck, and since… Continue reading Going Places and Doing Things

Crazy Busy Day

February 2, 2019 quiteayarnblog6 Comments

Well for a Saturday, this was a crazy busy one. As I may have mentioned, we are doing a big purge of our house and then organizing what is left. This is nowhere near as quick as the Marie Kondo show out now makes it look 🙂 I did actually know that, because we do… Continue reading Crazy Busy Day

OT: Unexpected Teatour

January 30, 2019 quiteayarnblog8 Comments

You know how sometimes it becomes generally known that you like something, and then that is the thing that people give you? Like people that are vocal about loving chocolate get chocolate for presents? Well, apparently I am the crazy tea lady at work. Which I am totally fine with, because it results in people… Continue reading OT: Unexpected Teatour

Cats Just See Napping Spots

January 24, 2019 quiteayarnblog5 Comments

I have spent so much time rummaging around in my scraps bin lately that I moved it out of the crafty storage area and put it in our room in an out-of-the-way area so I can get at it more easily. Then the cats started laying on it, naturally, because what else would you do… Continue reading Cats Just See Napping Spots

OT: Tea for Two – the January Shipment

January 22, 2019 quiteayarnblog2 Comments

As I mentioned last month, my DH got me a tea-of-the-month club subscription from Harney & Sons for Christmas last year. Yesterday I got my first regular shipment! I did have concerns as to whether tea was going to be coming in huge shipments such that I would not be able to drink it all.… Continue reading OT: Tea for Two – the January Shipment

Shake It Off

January 14, 2019 quiteayarnblog4 Comments

Whew! Today was a day of regrouping. I frogged the trim and front of Schooner, and am reevaluating whether I am going to use the yarn for an entirely different project, or try to rejigger that one. If it’s going to an entirely different pattern, I will frog the back as well. We shall see.… Continue reading Shake It Off
