Still just plugging away at the same two projects, but making progress! I’m about halfway done with the second curtain, and ready to be all the way done 🙂 Hopefully this week. The first Mom mitten is underway, but these will certainly not be finished by this weekend. So I will have to either be… Continue reading Wednesday WIPs
There’s actually been a LOT of progress on our new house since I last wrote about it, but I’m waiting for areas to be “finished” to talk about them. But there’s one room I can’t wait on – my office! After a fair amount of trouble and strife, we got my mural wallpaper up! Now… Continue reading House Progress
Same two projects as last week, but a bit more progress 🙂 The first door curtain is done, and I’ve got a little start on the second one. I was debating free-forming the “pattern” on the second one, but decided to try to make it more or less match the first one. So #1 won’t… Continue reading Thursday ThWIPs

This week I had a work trip back to Anchorage. I did get some knitting time in, but mostly during travel time there and back again. But tomorrow I will be settled back in, and have knitting and house news to share. Also tomorrow – catch up on everyone’s blogs!
OMG, some actual knitting stuff on my knitting blog! The colorwork patterns are from Pacific Knit Co‘s Autumn Doodle Cowl and Autumn Doodle Expansion 1. If you are not familiar with the doodle patterns, they are a set of interchangeable designs that can be used for cowls, hats, and a variety of other projects. You… Continue reading FO Friday!
A little while ago, DH and I took our dream vacation to England. We spent most of our time in London, though we did venture outside for a few jaunts. We stayed at the Tower Hotel, which was right next to the Tower of London and the Tower bridge. The first thing we went to… Continue reading England! (picture heavy post)
