So the oak is dusting the city with pollen this week, and this year it’s really bothering me. I’ve been sick since Monday, really Sunday night. I guess working all weekend in the yard and garage while the pollen was flying was not a smooth move.
We did manage to get the rose bed mostly [...]
to bring you some non-knitting content, brace yourself. Here are some of my favorite pics from the Alaska trip.
Stanley Park
Pulling into Ketchikan
Juneau clearing up
Orca (or killer if you want to be un-PC about it) whale in Lynn Canal (Juneau)

I have been very, uh, lazy I guess for the last month. I just realized I haven’t blogged since I got back from my trip to Alaska in September. Crazy.
So a lot’s been happening I guess. I have been struggling with the stupid occipital neuralgia crap. It’s pretty bad right now, [...]

So here’s my rehash of the April knitting, it’ll be short, and my update on life in general.
I only finished one project in April, the Monkey socks (Rav link), which used about 286.5 yards of yarn not from my stash really since I bought it in March for these socks as a gift.
The gift was [...]
So I decided that I should merge the blogs and since knitter’s lib is where I’m posting the most I’m keeping it and merging in the content from the little hour (which I wasn’t posting in much anyway). So now this will be about more than knitting, but I guess it kind of was [...]

So I realized this morning that I never did a wrap up post for March. So here it is.
I finished the Jitterbug socks, the Ovaltine cardigan, the Amelia Earhart hat (same post as Ovaltine), and the Brownie hat which I forgot to do a real FO post for.
So I finished 4 projects [...]

So not a lot going on right now. I have managed to get to the foot portion of my first monkey sock (pic hopefully to follow later), but have stalled out the last couple of days. I didn’t get any knitting done this past weekend and I’m sure that this weekend will be [...]
You were a good cat and we’ll miss you.
