Life's a Stitch

And more recently life’s a creative adventure with some travel thrown in.

The hard drive, which is my brain, feels full. I need to delete stuff and defrag it, or perhaps find a way to increase my virtual memory. I am losing stuff. For example, I forgot the three year anniversary of this blog. Three weeks ago I entered my fourth year in the world of knit blogging, a relatively important part of my daily life, and I forgot to take notice.

Img_1569 I do remember, however, how to knit and I’ve been knitting up a storm:

1. Just have the arm holes and the front bands to do on my mom’s vest.

2. Finished the back and more of the cable trim on the Seville jacket. Tahki New Tweed is my new best yarn. Oh so soft, strong, and knits to worsted weight, there is more of this in my future especially since the Canadian dollar is at PAR! How about that? Never thought it would happen in my lifetime.

3. Even poor neglected Marina got pulled out of the knitting bag last night.

    I’ve been wondering what I need and that’s it – a defrag! I honestly believe that as we get older that’s why we forget more – there’s just so much more stuff wandering around in there! And I think I’ve yet to remember a blogiversary of mine. Maybe next year. Love both the projects, but really want to see pictures of poor neglected Marina!

    Interesting construction on that cable pattern. So you knit the cables and attach them later? Never seen that before. Sure does look pretty, though. The vest is gorgeous, too!

    Your mom’s vest looks cozy. Now I want to try Takhi New Tweed too, because you like it so much. Have to google it, bye for now. ;o)

    Happy Blogiversary and many happy posts in the future.
    Good knitting. The Catch 22- no knitting, no blog. We can manage symbiotically.
