sticks, beads and strings
make wonderful, beautiful things

Yes, No, No and wahhhh. Also, Hello.

Yes, I went to ACMoore.

No, I did not buy any yarn. The stuff I wanted was 16 bucks a skein. But, they are having a 25% off sale on Sept 10, so I may find myself back there then. I want to get some yarn for Christmas gifts. Not just for me to make Christmas gifts, but just to give. DD#3 has picked up the needles! so she and DD#1 will each get some yarn for Christmas.

No, I did not get my sock started yesterday. It’s on today’s agenda.

I picked up Sonota last night, and ripped back 16 rows of box stitch because I was not slipping the first stitch. I always do that because it makes seaming so much easier.

I’d like to give a wave to a family member who just found out I have a blog, and spent some time here yesterday. You know who you are, and welcome to my little corner of the www.

I’ll be posting a book review or two sometime, hopefully today. For now, I need to get a square for hocks, and then get on with the day.

See, now, I was just considering slipping the stitches for the sleeves on Gil’s Haiku (the baby version of same sweater, for those who can’t read my mind.) Great minds and whatnot.

I’ve found I really like picking up stitches and then 3nBO to seam it. It’s super sturdy and it looks more even. My seaming is horrible, I always have to go back and adjust tension endlessly.
