Feezin!

Posted by: cut the cord on: October 28, 2008

Had to turn the heat on this morning – Rufus was freezing… as was I. Our walk was frigid – pitch black out since the clouds were covering the little sun that would have been there and raining. Oh, and like 40 degrees. BRR!!!

I finished Lane’s legwarmies last night and started on her mittens! Yay!

It [...]

RIP clover needles :(

Posted by: cut the cord on: October 24, 2008

I love my Clover needles. But, I need to get rid of them. My fingers do not like bamboo. I never used to have problems with them, but lately I am getting splinters or some sort of bad reaction to them and my fingers are always sore. It’s not fun. So now I have 10 [...]

Yellow Stocking Knitting DONE!

Posted by: cut the cord on: October 22, 2008

It needs to be blocked and the ends need to be woven in, but I’ve finished knitting it! I’m pretty impressed at how quickly I did it!

Next up, the green one. It’s green where this one is yellow, red where this one is blue, and blue where this one is red. Basically, I’m sick of [...]

This weekend was pumpkin weekend! Jason and I took Jakob to a pumpkin patch in Great Falls – although, to be honest, I would have gone whether Jake wanted to come or not… it just so happened that I was watching him while our dad and Allison had an anniversary date so I planned my [...]

little ditty

Posted by: cut the cord on: October 8, 2008

I have put a pause on my knitting the past couple of days because my fingers/hands/wrists have been hurting. However, I DID whip up this cute little ditty this weekend for Baby Belle (who has yet to be born… but will be here any day now!!!!):
I spent over $200 on yarn on Monday [...]

blue or green?

Today was the first morning that I walked Rufus and was actually still cold when I walked back inside. It’s finally autumn! Yay! I LOVE the crisp, cold air. I love the smell of it and the way it makes you able to see your breath. Ah, October is seriously the best month of the [...]

oh, Rufus…

Posted by: cut the cord on: October 2, 2008

This is why Rufus is just about as much trouble as a 2 year old:

This was my sock from Australia… which was made in Nepal… but nevermind that.

My socks are no more! I left the bedroom door open for literally 30 seconds – SECONDS! – and he ran in and did this. He’s like a [...]
