It's been all tricks here and no treats at all lately. I had such big plans for the weekend but none worked out. I ended up with a sinus headache/migraine so there was limited knitting. Needless to say those 2 pair of socks I had planned to have

Misty Taos colored memories of the sock I started in June. When last we saw the sock things weren't looking very good. There had been a bit of a rip and then I set it aside while I did a few other things and time passed. It sat and sat on my

Since I have been movie obsessed lately this seemed like a good idea. I stole it. Feel free to do the same. SUPPOSEDLY if you’ve seen over 85 films, you have no life. Mark the ones you’ve seen. There are 239 films on this l

Denial. It's A Good Thing.

It's not what you think, the denial I mean. The socks are perfect except for having no heels but I'll get to them. I knit like a madmanwoman this weekend. I watched movies and knit. I watched tv and knit. I knit while waiting for the chicken

It has been wonderful having H at home the last couple of days. It just seems perfect to have everyone tucked into their own bed at night. It would appear that my sock knitting mojo has returned! One of my favorite part of knitting is varigated yarn.

Sorry to leave you hanging. The Dark Mark Scarf is finally dry and fringed. I love the way it came out. It was totally worth the rip and reknit! H is coming home today for a couple of days and it's waiting for her on her bed. I hope she likes it.

The Scene: The porch waiting for the sun to get high enough in the sky to get a reasonably decent photo of the progress on the scarf.The knitter gets the scarf all laid out in a pleasing manner and gets the camera ready. Squatting to catch the scarf
