Like most women I have body issues. I’m getting pretty good at ignoring them most days, but some days the little voice in the back of my head is extra whiney and hard to ignore. It tells me I’m not good enough, that I’ve never been good enough, that everything I do is a fraud, […]

Technology for Knitting: Smartphone Colorwork Edition
The other day I was yarn shopping and picked up some colors for a project, and was trying to decide on the whether the values were different enough to work well with the stranded pattern I had in mind. In the past I’ve taken a digital photo of my yarn and converted it to black […]
Today's Picture: A Childhood Reminiscence
I got a bonsai tree today… FTD.com shipped it to me (and very well packaged, might I add). I’ve always wanted a bonsai, but when I was ordering it despite the fact that they had plenty of more traditional bonsais, I was overwhelmingly drawn to the dwarf jade because it reminded me of my childhood.

Hiking Again

An actual knitting update, but with pictures of flowers
I really didn’t expect to get so many people de-lurking when I posted about birth control. It seems like there are a lot of women for whom artificial hormones are just BAD NEWS! I’m rather excited at the prospect of getting back to ‘Normal’, and being able to think clearly again. I have been knitting […]
No time for words…

I think I'm in love…
I’m not sure which I’m more in love with, the Zephyros Shawl, or my new camera! You can see the whole flickr set here. When I’ve struggled with a project I always get a little pissed off at it by the end. I’m less than pleased until I look at it through the lens of […]
More on Zephyros
The knitting and blocking for Zephyros is done, but I have returned the loner camera to my dad and my new camera is not set to be here until later, so all I have is in progress pictures for you. Here is a detailed shot of the border: And detail of the turned short row […]
