Calling the Chicken Goddess!! I went up to the big barn today to check on the sheep and fill the trough. The big barn is kind of quiet, it opens on the back to the 127 acres of woods and it’s a good place to think. Or if you’re kind of jumpy, it’s a good [...]

SAFF handspun sweater challenge sweater: DONE. Whew. And yes, I put the damned zipper in myself. By machine. And it could be better-WOULD be better if Jared had done it-but it’s in, it functions and now certain people are going to have to expend their energy finding something else to rag me about.

It’s lovely and rainy, cool [getting down to the 50s now at night!] and I’m sitting in a room with leaky wool fumes. I’m also high on freshly finished knitting, diet coke and white cheddar popcorn.

My horoscope for today: The nutty antics of the people around you doesn’t seem to be coming off as odd to anyone but you today — and you might think you’re the one who’s not getting it. But in fact, everyone else is as just as confused and bewildered as you. They’re just looking for [...]

First, and quickly, I give you progress reports, but then we move on to a new online store and then if you stick around, I have pictures of the happiest place on earth. And I don’t mean mouse ears. Ribby Cardi has a completed back and about 1/3 of the left front now. Here’s the [...]
