I have been knitting and knitting and knitting, lots! I think I am finally over having been a yarn store owner! I have waited to take pictures of some of the current knitting until it is on its tiny future...Rose2007-02-07T22:20:28-05:00There is wonder in most everything I see

I've had a very full weekend! Details are over at my other blog, but short story: kidney stone! Katje asked what I'd been knitting on Percocet, so I thought I'd post a picture: It's been *so wonderful* today to lie...Rose2006-12-04T23:22:59-05:00Sign me up as "Village Voyeur"

In a New York Times article about Thom Browne, there was the following description of his spring 2007 collection: His spring 2007 presentation was a haunting 30-minute film by the artist Anthony Goicolea, called “The Septembrists.” It was set in...Rose2006-10-19T19:16:10-05:00Looooooom!

Because I am currently unable to say the word "loom" without either a ridiculously long "o" or an exclamation point. Because I have one! A loom! On the Spinners and Weavers Housecleaning Pages, I saw an ad for a 22"...Rose2006-10-15T21:41:04-05:00Fuzzy Wuzzy Was a Scarf

So one of the things I've been doing besides knitting is felting. I went over to Mary's house to learn how to felt onto silk one day, and I made a scarf for myself that I love (but don't have...Rose2006-09-25T20:50:01-05:00Namaste

Hey there. I've been doing a lot of posting over at Miles of Yarn, so if you've been wanting to hear what's going on with me, the action is all over there. But I have been doing a tiny bit...Rose2006-09-16T16:05:51-05:00In a rut
http://www.yarnivore.com/mt/archives/001560.html
Thought I'd say hi to anyone who's still coming around these parts -- but I am in a terrible rut! I really haven't been knitting much at all, and when I do, it's a bit halfhearted. I finished up a...Rose2006-06-14T15:41:16-05:00Man Embroiders! Let's Call It Painting and Give Him a Solo Show!
http://www.yarnivore.com/mt/archives/001472.html
Ooh, it makes me want to scream. This guy's work is gorgeous, and I definitely want to see it, but it's not painting, it's fiber art, or embroidery. It's stitching on fabric. You don't have to call it "painting" to...Rose2006-02-12T23:51:54-05:00So You Want to Sew! And Why Not?

I'm treading on Erin's toes a little by posting this instead of sending it to her to post (Hi, Erin!), but I don't think she'll mind. I just bought Adele P. Margolis's terrific-looking sewing guide, The Dressmaking Book, which was...Rose2006-02-11T13:50:15-05:00Recreating the past

One of the first handmade presents I gave Francis was a boucle scarf I'd knitted for someone else (who never used it, because she was old and ill and eventually died) which he loved. I had a matching one (although...Rose2006-02-03T16:22:56-05:00A brand-new thread!

Hi there! I just got some patterns in the mail from Hot Patterns. I'm so excited! I bought the Hippy Chick dress, and the Buddha Baby skirt, and the Boho-Deluxe Patchouli dress. I've been buying lots of fabric at Fabric...Rose2006-01-24T18:39:57-05:00New knitting in the new year

It's taken a while to get into the full swing of knitting for recreation, but I'm making progress. I've finished the Mountain Mohair hat I started after Rhinebeck, and I've started on the mittens that go along with it. They're...Rose2006-01-09T14:58:41-05:00Civilian Knitter

I went to Rhinebeck this past weekend! Cindy drove me up from Brooklyn, and Francis came along as a yarn-color consultant. I went with a couple of projects in mind, and actually came away with yarn for them. I'd like...Rose2005-10-20T16:17:55-05:00Not such a good day over here.

I haven't been blogging lately; I've been struggling with some personal trouble, decisions, health matters (my mother's, my own). Of course a lot of you know I'm from south Louisiana, too, which hasn't helped my mood any. I'm hoping to...Rose2005-09-15T13:54:29-05:00Better late than never!
