I took it off the needles to rip back the cable mistake, and decided to try it on. Good thing – it’s just huge on me. Huge. There’s no way to save it, so I guess at some point I’ll have to rip the whole thing. I’m just not ready yet, [...]

I definitely miss Chinese New Year in Hawaii. I went to the celebration here last year, and not only does San Diego not really have a Chinatown, their celebration is, well, kind of small and depressing.
I looked on my Christmas list and realized that I have yarn for all but two presents. Those [...]

First off, Marisa has started blogging! Go say hi.
Natalie and I have too much yarn. Well, I have WAY too much yarn, and Natalie has a little bit too much. I will not be publicly admitting my stash count anytime soon.

This round robin was a quilt theme. I went for a simpler design to get it done with quickly. I used the DMC variegated flosses for this, 5 hours of stitching. (I didn’t stitch the border – that was done by the owner of the piece).

I also knitted four coasters yesterday and [...]
