By my own knitting project rotation schedule, I should have been working on my Schooner today. However, it was such a gray, overcast and colorless day outside that I decided on my Find Your Fade instead. I even managed to sneak in a couple of rows at lunch. My coworkers loved the colors – one… Continue reading Fading the Gray Away
I have been working away on my Schooner, but it all looks like a bit more of this… So the same as before, just a bit more of it! In other news – hope everyone who celebrates had a Merry Christmas? Ours was pretty nice. We got to sleep in (since we have no kids,… Continue reading Knit knit knit

I started getting everything together for my next sweater – what I’m hoping will turn out to be a nice gray tank, courtesy of Amy Herzog’s custom fit. Of course next to Dolores’ glam, I feel kind of boring. Suddenly I want an orange caftan and turban too! Maybe not for work, though 🙂
