Inspired to Knit

By admin | Published: May 3, 2010
Yesterday, I spent the entire day reveling in Knitting Goodness.  We started the day in Guthrie at the SWAK Knit Out with an amazing class on charting by Cookie A. I thought I knew what I was doing, but Cookie really cleared things up for me…..or muddied the water…I am not sure yet.  Either way [...]

By admin | Published: February 24, 2010
I started the Girlfriend Market Bag for my aunt on my way to my girl’s trip in Vegas and YES, I just now finished it.  It was her Christmas present and became a Valentine gift…thank goodness I did it in pink.  Either way, it’s finished, I mailed it, she likes it, and I included a [...]

Oklahoma Live

I have a confession to make. I am a little ashamed to say this, but I went to the State Fair. I have to say I have watched Martha Stewart enough to say that I fantasize about going to the Fair. People gathered from all over the state to celebrate each others craft, livestock, produce, [...]

A Spider and a New Sweater

By admin | Published: September 9, 2008
Last night I sat and watched this little lady spin her web and the wonder of how she does it was more amazing than ever. The more I knit the more I am amazed at how things are created. When Mr. C called me to the door to see something…..I almost didn’t get up. But, [...]

February Ladies Sweater

By admin | Published: September 5, 2008
A few weeks ago…..well, maybe months……heck, I can’t remember, my Wednesday night SnB group decided to do a sweater.  I had pretty much convinced myself that I would not knit garments that I would actually wear out in public, but when I looked at the pattern I couldn’t pass it up.  So, I bought some [...]

When my passions collide….

By admin | Published: March 4, 2008
I love it when I get that tingly feeling that “something was meant to be.”  I have a lot of passions this day.  When I say passion, I am not being over-expressive.  Obsessions might be a better word. Anyway, as you probably know, if you read this blog, I love to knit.  I started knitting [...]

A Knitty Funny

By admin | Published: February 12, 2008
A woman is knitting as she drives (which is totally unsafe, and I don’t advocate it). Pretty soon, her speed has crept all the way up to 95 mph–and she passes a parked police car. The car gives chase. Officer Bob turns on his siren, but the woman, oblivious, doesn’t notice him. Finally, he pulls [...]

  • Inside the Front Cover

    I channel Dorothea Lang for art and beauty for the sake of social justice and political reform and  Martha Stewart for art and beauty for the sake of “good things.”  Throw in a little Julia Child and now you have entered the depths of my psyche.  “Crazy on a Good Day” is an [...]
