A half day of work combined with an afternoon flight across the country don’t make for a very stress-free Mim. Too crazy to really blog, but I made a commitment (to myself) to blog every day this week, so here it is. I’ll try to blog as much as possible from TNNA, but I’m not […]

No pictures yet.
I have pictures, they’re just in my camera and I haven’t had the time to process them yet. On Monday night I was busy finishing the sweater, last night I finished my heretofore unseen Thelonious socks right before I left to go to knitting, and this morning I needed to shower, so there’s been no […]
Knitters are good people
Apparently I have crazy eyebrows…. So I’ve alluded to it, but didn’t give you all details, but I went to Denver at the end of March for Imbrium‘s wedding. The whole flickr set is here. I didn’t feel comfortable taking pictures of the actual ceremony since there were professional photographers doing that, but it was […]
New York City, Part II: Yarn and Knitting
Our yarn crawl wasn’t terribly spectacular, but it was just what I wanted. We went to Habu Textiles (where you stand at this wall full of hanks of simply amazing yarns and then tell them what you want and how much of it and they wind it off for you) and to School Products (which […]
New York City, Part I: The Foodie Heaven
New York was awesome! I had a great time hanging out with Bakerina and her more manly half Lloyd. Bakerina gave me the quick and dirty foodie tour of New York by first initiating me into the delectable world of New York City Pizza. C asked me how it was different and I tried to […]
Quickie from Astoria
I’m here, I’m alive and New York is humid. : ) Jen has me happily ensconsed in her apartment and tomorrow’s plans include a yarn crawl. There will be pictures! I did manage to totally forget to pack the wedding shawl, but I am calling C in a minute with instructions to FedEx it to […]
Finishing things up and packing
Holy crap! Deadline knitting right before you leave for a trip where you may not have internet access is NERVE RACKING! I got the lace piece done and it is BEAUTIFUL! Look for its publication in the Fall. Also, I finished a mitt pattern for Anne’s spinning fiber club. This was my first knitting with […]
Estes Park Wool Market 2007
I am back and at least MOSTLY intact. I am tired and a bit sore from the long ride, but I had a lot of fun, which makes it worth the long-term effects. A bunch of bloggers at the Stanley Hotel I rode out with a bunch of Utah Grrls; Margene, Cheryl, Karen, and Val […]
Mahogany socks make great hats!
I finished the secret tweedy something (over the weekend I think) after having messed up the border and having to knit it over about 3 times. When you wake up at ungodly hours, the best plan is NOT to try to finish your knitting. Seriously… BAD plan. I got it grafted and everything before I […]
The New York Plan
Bakerina and I want to gauge interest in a little meet-up while I’m in New York. Leave a comment if you’d like to come so we can get an idea of how many people to expect. And if you would please spread the word to other New York area peeps that might want to know, […]
