Has it really been a month (or more!) since I posted anything here? Apparently so. This type of not realizing just how long it has been since I did something has been happening a lot. So here are my excuses:
1. My job has been busy with end-of-the-year stuff that must get done by, well, the end of the year so the datestamps on stuff in my databases don't mess up my statistics. This precludes me from engaging in a great deal of at-work internetting.
2. Outside of work, my brain is about 98% taken over by knitting projects--remembering knitting projects, planning new knitting projects, thinking about details regarding current knitting projects--I am obsessed with fiber. While I want nothing more than to post about all of the wonderful knitting I've been up to, most of it is holiday related and you'll just have to wait until after Christmas. Hopefully by then I find the cord to my camera so I can share pictures along with my thoughts. For now, the camera won't give up it's pixels!
Finally, the Christmas knitting is now completed. I wove in the last sneaky little ends last night. What did I do to celebrate? Give myself a manicure to soothe those wool-chapped hands? Never. I started on a Flowers on the Grave cloche (I made it to the top decreases--hopefully I'll get to the fulling part tonight!) and daydreamed about skeins and skeins of Kid Silk Haze for the Maggie I'd like to make myself. Of course, I can't think about spending nearly $100 in yarn for a wee sweater until I am a) rich, and b) done with a special birthday sweater and my red scarf.
