to all my affiknitty-directed visitors

Well, thanks for stopping by! I hope you’ll enjoy what you see here.

Thanks for the compliments, and to all of those who have pointed out that low-rise jeans require larger belts: You are totally right! Thanks for reminding me. I reminded my mom (who had been horrified when I gave her the measurement I’d prefer) of this, and she felt a lot better. I also talked to her about adding to my addi stash, or a gift cert to knitpicks, and she ultimately decided that she would just write me a check. So I’ll have to be good about applying the money toward personal purchases, not groceries.

pam progress

| 2 comments

Progress Pam! You know, I really don’t much care for the name Pam. No offense to Pams out there, of course, but it’s just kind of blah to me.

Of course, the Pam sweater is not blah at all. It’s full of cables, moss stitch, and, uh, ribbing. And I’m more than 3/4 of the way done!

organization continues . . .

I cleaned my closet this morning. What has come over me, seriously. It’s like someone far more neat and clean than I has taken over my body.

I also took a walk, and went to Sophie’s Yarns. They’re moving in February to a space on Fabric Row, which excites me greatly, as I live off of Fabric Row. I chatted with the owner about the new space for a while, as I tried to fend off the aggressively friendly store cat. What is it about knitting stores and cats? Honestly, cats are nice and all, but I don’t want their hair and dander all over materials I’m going to be holding for hours on end, what with being allergic. Still, I like Sophie’s Yarns, and I like the owner quite a bit.
