Dear Laura:
Well, I think I'm getting organized enough for a post. I haven't been slow to post because of lack of material - just lack of a coherent brain!
First of all, I was amazed by the amount of knitting I got done while my computer was off for repair. I found out that I spend a lot of prime knitting time on the computer, browsing, reading blogs, playing games, etc. And that's not all bad - sometimes after a day of work, card games or sudoku "feel better" to my brain. Engages a different area than knitting, I guess. LOL - now that I'm watching baseball most nights (GO CARDS!!) I find that I can knit during the inning and still watch the game. Then during the commercials, I take a knitting break and play on the computer. You want to talk multi-tasking????
Anyway, since last I posted a finished object, I have finished the following items…
1. Wow, I see that I haven't posted a final picture of the blocked afghan with border....that was finished back on 9/19/06 - so here's a long overdue picture which includes the "bonus" felted fuzzy feet!
2. Blue striped socks that I started back in the spring. I finished the first sock and then whipped through the second sock.
3. Orange "loopy" scarf.
4. Purple/multi reversible hat for my Goddaughter Maggie.
5. A worsted-weight crimson "criss-cross" scarf for my niece Kelly's birthday.
6. Finishing work on Lydia's sweater.
7. A Lizard-Ridge block for Grandmother Purl.
8. A fingering-weight Koigu "criss-cross" scarf.
Plus I'm working on a pair of dark red Trekking socks. I've started the second sock, and cast on another reversible hat (sshhh, it's a gift) which is about 3/4 done. I'll finish that tonight, while hopefully watching the last game of the World Series.....Go Cards!!
Keep knitting!!

Wow...love the new look....you're going to have to teach me how to do that!!!
Great new look!
You have been busy! The more I stay away from my computer, the more knitting I get done. Why is that?
