The silence .... no knitting ... unbearable

Last night, I finally picked up some yarn and needles.

And frogged a project.

I have this beautiful handspun from a fellow WAHM ... orange, blue and brown. It is soft and beautiful.

I was using it to make a one piece cardigan for $ 3.

And I wasn't feeling the love.

And then ... I met a fellow Ravelry-er. Amy, who works across the street from me, stopped over to intro herself and to catch up for a few minutes. She inspired me to give that BSJ another try. And I am making the BSJ, I think. If it doesn't fit # 3, it will be my nephew's Christmas present from me.

Because, my friends, I am sure that is when it will finally be finished.

Still working on some socks, still trying to gain some inspiration.

I think I need to look for some fairs and shows and stuff to get into.

I was going to make the Rambling Rows jacket, and then I saw that it is all knitted in blocks and then seamed together.

Me + seaming = an unhappy household so I think I will spare my family.

You can do it!! (the sock and the BSJ) I can't wait to see the pics.

On the fair note....I know that you can purchase a booklet that has all of Ohio's craft fairs in it with contacts and requirements and cost. I can't for the life of me remember what it is called though....try googling ohio craft fair booklet. If I remember I will let you know!

We need to meet up and do lunch. Email me later!
