Moving Right Along

Classes for "Spellbound" and "Rissotto (Made To Order)" have been posted to the Only Ewe Calendar.  I am offering 2 different sessions for each (Thursday afternoons or Saturday mornings) - go here to check out the specifics. :)

I finally figured out how to set up my Paypal account this morning ... really not that difficult just one of those roadblocks that I seem to create for myself ... I really wish I could break through this tendency of mine!  Next, I will get some more patterns up for sale (and some freebies :)) and then as they are completed, I can easily add that step to my process.  "Spellbound"  will not be available on Ravelry until after Stitches South (2 weeks away - yippee:)) By the way, I got to see another of the colorways worked up at the Atlanta Knitting Guild meeting last night (made by Pat - beautiful job!) - pastels - blues and greens - wow!!!

I just remembered that I need to do my homework for my Stitches South classes - I have a full schedule but luckily only two are requiring homework... better go

Technical Team Fixed the Issue

Internet rebooted yesterday so all better now thanks to DHJ! 

For those of you outside of Georgia, "we all" :) are in the midst of yellow snow season (not the kind you don't eat although you wouldn't eat this either).  Every Spring, major pollen blankets the earth here, many people are sneezing and most people never ever open their windows...except back in 2000 when my family moved to GA, some unnamed member of the family thought it was so beautiful outside that all the windows should be thrown wide open resulting in a thick covering of yellow-green dust all over everything!!!  I can't even remember now how we cleaned it all up!  Anyway, today 90% chance of rain which should help to calm things down a bit!

DDK comes back from Spring Break today - Can't wait to see her!!!We have been texting back and forth and I think the vacation was really fun - she tried alligator meat even.  I told her that when she got home she would have to try asparagus but she never answered the text ... hmmmmmmm

Flutterby take 2 is complete and the pattern / kit will be available at Stitches South!  This morning I will be posting classes for "Spellbound" (starts right after Stitches) and "Rissotto - Made to Order" (starts next Saturday) on the Only Ewe Calendar. 

And... Atlanta Knitting Guild tonight!  :)  (Great day off!!!)

Technical Difficulties!

Good Morning!!!  I am posting from the Only Ewe computer!!!  Our internet was down this morning and I didn't have time to mess around with it because I soooooo needed to get over here :)  I missed Tuesday Night Knitting group because I had a couple of long days at the cafe and need to be at home but I plan to head over to Noble Knitters tonight as well and I get tomorrow off - Yippee :)  Talk to you tomorrow!

A Little Bit of Swing

Good Progress on my little diversion even with some frogging to get the gauge right...  I am using Debbie Bliss Prima (80% Bamboo / 20% Wool - DK weight) that has been waiting in my stash for just the right project ... I think this is it!

It will grow up to be a staple wardrobe piece (in everyone's wardrobe hopefully :)) Simple but with some secret special details :)  Everyone needs to learn the tubular cast on for when you are doing k1 p1 rib - I just love it!!!

Nice Easter yesterday - DSJ came for lunch (and his Easter Basket, of course :))  We relished the beautiful weather - I do believe Spring has Sprung!

Happy Easter!!!

First cut of Flutterby is finished - this is a cute easy-to-knit Capelet (a little different than the norm :)) designed for Plymouth Yarn "Athena" (a calmed down texture-y little bit sparkly novelty yarn)  Take 2 will need to incorporate a couple of modifications and then it will be ready :)  On a slight side trip right now thanks to MFM (no pressure, right?) - a little swingy summer cardigan - no details yet but they will be forthcoming soon...

Happy Easter Everyone!  Have a wonderful day with Family and Friends!

Unplanned Visit - Happy Happy Joy Joy!

DSJ came by yesterday for a visit and stayed for dinner without much twisting of arms!  He is great and enjoying his job, looks great from some good physical work (lifting much 100 lb cables and such) and good sleep (he has figured out that going to bed early is a good idea when you must get up for work each day :))  He is working on the audio / visual wiring for a soccer stadium - pretty cool!  It was great to see him and really great to know for sure that he is doing well...we have been in contact by phone but face-to-face is a gazillion times better!!! :)

DDK is heading to Florida with a friend's family tomorrow for a little spring break in the sun - we will miss her but glad that she gets to go away - she has been working really hard at her schoolwork and deserves a fun little break.

Here's a few pics of Rissotto and Flutterby.  I apologize profusely for the early morning lighting (or lack of it) ... hopefully you can get the idea!  Rissotto is being test knit now and will be available very shortly - class to be posted for Thursday or Saturday sessions starting next week.

Wake up You Sleepheads!

Good Morning!!!  Just a quick post to let you know I am not losing steam again but alas, I have an opening shift today...just counting my blessings as it is the only one this week :)  I wish everyone a wonderful day!
