I FINALLY have some project pictures up on Ravelry!!! :) I'm still missing some for things that were given as gifts, are still in the wash, etc. But most are up there! YAY!

Yarn shipped Friday. I'm crossing my fingers that it'll be here today! If not today, then it'll come tomorrow (and I will hopefully have knocked my Palindrome scarf off my ( Read more... )

Classic Yarns of Grafton

jadzaea Aug 13, 2008 20:31

If any of y'all are kicking around near Grafton, Classic Yarns is having a HUGE sale. The whole store is 50% off, excluding the sock yarn, Cascade 220 Superwash, and Encore. Everything else is fair game. EVERYTHING. So I'll be going back this Saturday sometime to peruse some more! :)

Mmmmm . . . yarn . . .

Webs order placed last night, with sweet 25% discount. After Joanne's stuff, I was literally 67 cents away from it (total of full priced merchandise was $119.33 *groan*). So I gleefully got an extra ball of mine. Oh well--I'll find something to make with the extra. :P I hope they're able to fill the order today. If they stick it in the mail ( Read more... )

I'll be placing a Webs order sometime within the next couple of weeks (possibly this weekend as Dave gets paid, provided no bills are going out).

What do you know . . .

I may be able to host a party after all! Maintenance has to come into the apartment today, so Dave wanted to clean the apartment last night. There's still some stuff on the coffee table and dining table, but the huge pile of gifts is no longer eating the apartment! It looks good again! YAY! Maybe now I can be a little less depressed . . .

And ( Read more... )

For all of you who are also Star Trek fans . . .

I realized today that I miss Quark, and his Rules of Acquisition. :P He was by far the most entertaining character on any Star Trek, with the Doctor from Voyager being a distant second.

dork!

:P

I'm walking through Price Chopper at 9:00 last night because the cat didn't have enough litter to get her through the night. I spot these "Dog Sitter" and "Cat Sitter" DVDs that you can put on while you're out to keep the animal(s) entertained. I couldn't stop laughing and here's why ( Read more... )

How Freakin' Cute Is This?

This is possibly the cutest baby hat I've ever seen. :P

I want more!

Last Monday, I went to a knitting group at my apartment complex. It was really fun and I was excited. Now it's pretty much gone to s**t due to some happenings in the complex. So no more knitting group. :(

But I've had a taste now, and I want more. I know there's probably a Stitch N' Bitch in Worcester somewhere, but I'd like to think that I'm ( Read more... )

So since I can't find the answer to these anywhere else . . .

I just had a couple of questions about blocking that I can’t find answers to elsewhere:

When doing a gauge swatch for something that has to be blocked, do you have to block the gauge swatch?
Do you have to re-block something every time you wash it?

Any advice would be helpful too. :) I've never blocked before and I have a pair of socks that I'm ( Read more... )
