Yeah, you got that right. I AM the snot monster! For about a week now I have been extremely easy to track. Just follow the damp, wadded-up kleenex. It has been all, “Code Milky Green!” up in these parts. In other words, I have morphed into my arch villein, the Snot Monster. See, I believe …
Yeah, that about sums up my urge to blog the past few weeks. And I’ve stuff to blog about to be sure. I went to Fibre Flurry in Birmingham and had a great time despite the M1’s attempt at making me miss it entirely. I went to Loop in London, finally. I had dinner with …
So today I made this totally lush yarn. By accident. Grr…. I guess that accident isn’t totally correct. This yarn was made with the remainder of the leftover fibers that I had from Janel Laidman’s spinning class at Knit Nation. There is (I think) some alpaca and silk, Merino and silk, BLF and silk, and …
Thursday I returned from a really good day at Ally Pally (I’ll write more about it later) with my friend Jon of Easyknits (LOVE the new Twinkle yarn btw) and there was a large package waiting for me in the entryway. The return address was the retail store of the organizer of Knit Camp. This …

The tutors who were affected are: Ann Kingstone Annie Modesitt Carol Feller Deb Robson Debbie Bamford Debbie Tomkies Di …
So, since it seems that my proper Shetland posts are going to take a dogs-life to be written (we crammed a lot into a week!) I figure that I can give you some swag shots to keep y’all happy:-) Now, as you all know, the whole trip was arranged by Jamieson and Smith, the Shetland …
I went to the iKnit Weekender on the Friday a few weeks ago just to shop and see some friends. I didn’t take any classes as I was still a tad “knit-out” at that point. However, I did shop! First off, I got some lovely yarns from the lovely Jon of Easyknits. This is the …
This past weekend I once again ventured North. On Thursday I left the Chapel in the morning and headed towards the Yorkshire Dales once again. I wanted to visit a few places that I hadn’t been able to see the last couple of times that I had been in that neighborhood. The drive up isn’t …
I’ve had a ton of people asking me what I’ve been doing since KC. The week after KC I spent in Shetland with the J&S group. I will blog about it, but I have a lot to write (and until recently, hadn’t felt like writing all that much!) However, what I have spent a lot …
I have sat down to write this post at least a dozen times. At first I was going to edit carefully and only talk about the good stuff that happened at camp. But I couldn’t do that when my stomach was still feeling like I was going to throw-up whenever I thought too much about …
