newest project...

I picked up the latest interweave knits magazine (fall 2006) this past Sunday... it is always so very dangerous for me to get knitting magazines... I see fantastic stuff, and want to run out and buy yarns and needles and... nevermind that I have 7 clear storage boxes filled with various types of yarns, and multiple baskets filled... and multiple bags ... yea filled, but...

Any way my newest project is "Bianca's Jacket" and I am doing it Lionbrand woolease Chestnut... as soon as I have one of the front panels done, I'll post a pix...

Commission!

Back in April I made a pair of fingerless gloves for myself, as I was having problems with my hands, with cold... (I broke my right hand 1 1/2 years ago... and when it gets cold... I definatley know about it... ) and a friend of mine saw them and wanted a pair, so I made her a pair... he boyfriend finally noticed them this last weekend and to quote... "He put them on. He said "wow, these are awesome"..." so... I have been commissiond to do 2 pair of gloves for him...

I lost a friend this week...

This afternoon, at a little after 3pm. Our friend and kinsman Ian Abramovitch passed away with as much dignity and ease as a human being is allowed. He was surrounded by his family, friends and co-workers as he slipped away, taking ship into the West.

Brightest Blessings to you Ian... I will miss you greatly

Inspection time...

So... today we (the scale) had an inspection... and I got to meet the head cheese for San Bernardino County Weights and Measures...

We got a conditional "A"
