Hello!!!

For those of you who read my seriously pathetic little knititng blog, you are probably wondering, hey, where'd she go?? Did she abandon knitting??? Nope, I'm here. Battling bronchitis, holidays and other assorted treasures of the season. I say "treasures" a tad sarcastically because anyone who knows me, KNOWS that I HATE this time of year. Long story and I will save you from reading a long rant and uttering "Scrooge" under your breath. Save it.

But why didn't anyone tell me that the "Fetching" fingerless gloves from Knitty were so damn addictive!!! No seriously. I had a wee bit of time on my hands lately and broke out the dpns and went to town. By me saying I got out the dpns you know I was in serious need of somethign to do. I never cared for knitting with dpns and avoided them like the plague....until now. Actually I have alot on my knitting bag lately, which I will get pictures of in the new year (oh that old tune again...)....but I keep thinking about finishing those gloves. I finished one, and usually, that ends the story. It sits, in a ziploc, nestled with the remaining yarn and a promise to return and finish it's mate. Not this time people. I couldn't wait to start (and finish) and I'm almost done too...and secretly planning on making more....... MUST MAKE MORE!!! I am addicted to this pattern!!!

Ok, go enjoy the holiday, stress all out and complain. I'm here...knitting....and happy!!!

Echoes......

Heeeeellllllloooo.......do I hear an echo in here?? Bueller???? Bueller??? (remember that movie??) I know, what can I say.......the design studio has been exceptionally busy and you don't here me complaining....but it has left a void in the knitting department. I did manage to knit some presents but other than that, knitting has taken a back seat these days!! I have been trying to knit in between life....... the sick dog, the shopping, the cooking, the designing, packaging and mailing (remember I am a one woman show here)........

So, I'm just dropping by to say that I will be blogging more, and by more I mean at least TWICE a week on the knitting blog in the new year!!! I will be back with new patterns, stuff, resolutions (because it just isn't new year's without them!!)

Until 2007, knit on......
