shocked and excited that I've lost 11 pounds this month. Over 10% down!

to learn how to do a knitted hem better. Provisional cast on + picking up stitches for a hem is taking forever. There must be a better way, not sure what to google for help!

a new French-Canadian artist named Bernard Adamus who I was introduced to today. I can't understand the words, but the bluegrassy-ness of him is awesome!

annoyed that my fingers are black after knitting this sock with Blue Moon Fiber Arts. I love it, but will not cast on number two until my hands are clean of dye!

annoyed that my fingers are black from knitting with Socks That rock from Blue Moon Fiber Arts. Is this usually a problem? It's gross!!!! Too much dye, not enough rinsing??

in a lot of pain after falling on my walk. Stupid hole in stupid grass and badly twisted ankle. No running for me this week.

my new Checkers playoff socks are done. They don't match at all (one end of the HippiePenguin yarn was MUCH lighter than the other) but they are pretty and match my team colors!

kind of amazing after my first attempt at running! Used the ZombiesRun 5K trainer... I feel great, even if I mostly walked!

that I can get a lot of knitting done on my Charlotte Checkers playoff socks! Cast them on today... my own pattern, all multiples of 15 to represent the # of wins to get the Calder Cup!

my yarn from Hippiepenguin. It's the most perfect hockey team colorway, even if it's technically called "The Gray Wizard. Will soon be my 2013 playoff socks!
