Knitting on Paper..
Well.. to be entirely honest... I haven't knitted a stitch since Thursday... but I have been doing other knitting related things.. I've been pondering... and I've been working on a new notebook option for myself..
I even made a fancy graphic for the front of it... I think it's pretty nifty..
I've still got to develop what is going to go on inside that binder... I know I need to find some dividers.. but that's not so easy with a 8.5"x5.5" paper size.. I'm hoping this'll end up being better than what I have now though.. I really like the spiral I was using.. but not being able to move the pages around has gotten to be a bother.
I'm also pondering the Tivoli Tee... the pattern is finnally out at Magknits and I've already printed it out... I meant to swatch yesterday but for some reason I just didn't get to it.. I have to read that pattern a few times.. I'm not sure I completely understand what it means.. (Maybe I'm not quite an intermediate knitter?) but I'm hoping to figure it out.
My ribby body is about 10 inches long now.. It doesn't feel as slow as it once did.. maybe because I'm not doing ALL ribbing anymore.. Or maybe I've just gotten into the groove.
We went to Home Depot the other night and I asked the paint girl there about my box.. I don't think she was very knowledgeable about it because she said, "Well that just shouldn't have happened".. She didn't have any solution for me.. and couldn't help me. I half expected this though because it's a brand new Home Depot and I'm sure she's new to the job... I want to go back to the store I bought the paint at and ask them.. Maybe they'll know. What a bummer it all is.
I have to do some college coursework now.. so I'll probably want a knitting break later.. Here's hopin ; )

About Me

- Name:Kim

I'm a tiny short woman who loves to knit clothes that actually fit me. I first learned to knit when I was about 10 but I never got beyond knit and purl. I didn't pick up knitting again till about 2 years ago, and now with the help of tons of library books, I'm chugging along and I think I'm pretty darn good : ) I'm married, and love my Australian husband dearly.

SOomehow I lost the comment you posted on my blog about the swift.(actually I accidently deleted the whole post trying to post the pic)
As soon as hubby gets it done(he is in the middle of ripping out the basement stairs and rebuilding) I will post a pic and if it actually works I will send you the directions if you want.
