I know I mentioned that I was knitting this: For a wedding in August. One of Jared’s cousins is getting married the day before my birthday. It’s taking place in my favorite city. Since I just so happen to have my brother moving here [farm sitter!], and since I never get to do anything fun [...]

You know it’s out, right? IT! I’ll wait while you go order your copy. Pixie is the one that originally showed it to me one evening a little over a week ago. I absolutely flipped for it on sight. We both wanted one. I then jumped on IM and told Melissa about it. She needed [...]

Best spam I ever got: The sender is “Toilet Paper” and the subject is “astonishment committee”. I didn’t dare open the email; I was afraid that after an intro like that it would either be a big letdown or else truly live up to its name. The summer IK preview is up. I like the [...]

I have the Hallelujah Chorus on continuous loop in my head today. You would, too. I’ve had this friggin sweater on the needles for nearly two years. I’ve had the pattern and yarn longer. I ripped this sucker out at least twice, and I’m thinking it might have been three times. La even watched me [...]

I came SO close to finishing my Dale sweater that it’s shameful I don’t have an FO pic for it today. Like 30 rows on the last sleeve close to done. However, today is gorgeous and I need to get out in that garden and stop horsing around with the yarn. I do have the [...]

I’m avoiding mulching a half acre of garden by writing a post. I’m squandering a nice, wet, cloudy morning that would be perfect for laying out cardboard and hay, but these days I have to post when I have a spare couple minutes in consecutive order, which isn’t often. —————————————————- My horoscope is hitting every [...]

Finally. At long last. May I please present: The Bare Naked Ladies How much for a pedicure and bikini wax? I now have five mohair fleeces and two wool fleeces stinking up my garage, but thank GAWD it’s done. My husband left this morning for a job in L.A. Three months. Heavy sighs. Teary eyes. [...]

I know I said I’d have pictures of naked goats. That’s because I was under the impression that shearing was going to be on Good Friday or possibly the day before that. Well, that came and went without so much as a peep from the woman wielding clippers. Fed up, we decided to buy some [...]

I have a long post clarifying and updating the whole melodrama situation, but I think I’ll leave that for the weekend. Today, I shall give you an easter-appropriate photo instead. I has a lamb. Bud has not only survived tetanus, but he is growing! A few days ago when I rushed him to the vet, [...]

WARNING: LONG, HATEFUL RANT AHEAD. THERE’S NOT EVEN ANYTHING FIBERY YOU CAN SKIP TO IN THIS POST. My horoscope for today: Sometimes you love being around other people, and sometimes — well, today is one of those days when other people (no matter how good their intentions are) will rub you the wrong way. You [...]
