Annnnd trying new imaging service. :) This post brought to you by ImageShack. Without further ado...The Tablecloth of DOOOOOOM!!! (36x36 inches)This picture was taken on the Holiday Inn rug, as soon as I finished embroidering the sucker. Half an hour later we left to go see this. Man, was I relieved.Aren't they cute? This is one of the few pictures I took that was neither red-eyed nor blurry

Saw a post about abandoned blogs and felt really, really guilty.I have several excuses, but really they're just excuses. :) So, how are all of you? (Seriously, I've been trying to refocus life on the whole scientist question. I don't want to play at being a scientist, I want to be one, which means that some hobby stuff has to take a back seat in my thinking.) The other reason is that I need to

Happy May Day!I didn't update much over the last couple months. Mea culpa. First off, I have to show you the picture of Mom's Twist shawl that I sent her for Easter.This was a quick knit, done in Broadway Lights, that used four and a fraction balls. (Very small fraction. Mom may see that yarn in purse form at some point. ;) Can you figure out from the picture how I screwed up the pattern? (

It's been too long since I've updated. Sometimes I view this with amusement, that it was last before my vacation, and some with embarrassment. I know I don't have the time to be one of the top bloggers, but I offer you guys my apologies for being incommunicado this long.What have I been up to? (All photos pending)Well, I finished the kitty hat in time for the trip... and then remembered that

The hat lies there so innocently, its fine yarn gleaming in the sun. Its bright colors beg me to touch it. But this is Lamb's Pride Bulky, a gorgeous, lovely, fun to knit yarn that makes my eyes itch like crazy and my head hurt after a while. Doesn't it look innocent lying there on the dryer? The title is Jayne's line from Firefly, if you're curious. :)In other news, I haven't started Odessa

Egads, I'm at work on a Sunday and my gel is running. I've got a little wait, but after that I need to carve bands like the wind so that I can get home in time to have some lunch before the DH and I go off to our first tango lesson! I'm so excited.The long-awaited complete sock photo. I was attempting to take a picture of myself in the bedroom mirror. Note that apparently I need to clean said

I suck at titles. I have the most terrible time coming up with something creative to call my rambling. I discarded a bunch of titles before picking that one. ;)Yes, today is my and my DH's fifth anniversary. Where did the time go? Mostly all of it has been happy. I feel very lucky at least once a day to be with him. =) I'm looking forward to what the future brings. In the immediate future

I had to stay late at work last night, but the good part of that was that since it was after hours and I was waiting for an incubation, I got to spend an hour of that incubation knitting. I also got in some knitting last night while watching Hellboy - for some reason I've been thinking about Hellboy lately. No, I don't know why either. After I snapped this picture, the DH offered to read to me

Current progress - first sock almost complete. Here you see the sock-in-progress lounging against my (L&Stitch) blanket in an attempt at colorful contrast. I had a wonderful weekend during which not a lot was spent knitting... most of the progress you see here was on Monday. I've modified the pattern a little bit (largely in response to dontcallmemolly's sage advice) and included an extra

THIS time, I managed to remember to take a sideways picture. I'm awed by how good this one came out. With *black yarn*! Now if I could only take pictures that well all the time. Now if only today's science works this well...Hopefully I'll remember to photo and post on Monday. Or at least Sunday. :) *crossing our fingers* I'm in the leg part, shortly before the flat knitting and the

Hello again! You can see what I was working on knitting this weekend in this picture. I polished up the chocolate cherry kitty bed and bound it off. I felt very smart when I realized that I could use the leftover red eyelash from Mom's leg warmers to line this bed. I was going to send it to Mom for Valentine's day but... well, it's going to be late. Ooops. So, who thinks that I should send

No pictures today. Yes, I suck. ;)I had a really busy weekend, but I knew that my weekends would be fullish when I picked a project, so I'm not worried. I knitted the first toe of my Lolita socks this Sunday, in fact, and discovered last night that the foot (which looked a bit big) was in fact ginormous. I then checked the gauge and realized that I'd made a Stupid Mistake.I'd worked trained

I suppose that I've learned that I usually don't have time to futz with photos on Monday while I'm at the lab. Heheh. Yet Another Photo-less Post.So, there was mucho knitting action this weekend. I finished the Dancing Socks, and an FO photo is pending. I'm very happy with them, as they're very comfy. Surprisingly, they were loose, so I might just keep them as bed socks so they don't wear

I guess I needed a sock break. Anyway, after getting more batteries at the supermarket, I reinvigorated the digital camera and again took ten shots to get two in focus pictures. I'm really going to have to get some snaps in natural light, but since it's monsooning today that might have to wait a bit.Here's me standing on the chair, taking a picture of the yarn progression I was planning for the

Hello there! I've learned that I'm good at taking the pictures and then forgetting about them. Hrrm. Not a good plan. I'm getting better at editing them in Photoshop, but I still sometimes have focus issues with the digital camera.Anyway, here's a picture of what a heel flap looks like from both sides... I've got some friends that are doing their first socks, and I wanted to post what 'normal

Yup, signed up for the Knitting Olympics. My challenge is to put my money where my mouth is and finish a small lace project that I've had the yarn for for ages - Knitty's Lolita Legs.I did do some knitting on the second Dancing Sock and will have heel flap and 'periscope heel' pictures for you later on... promise!(The DH looked over after I'd just turned the heel and said 'look, it's a little

(cross-posted from my LJ)Part-way through the Netflix movie my Mom called to tell me she'd (finally) gotten her Christmas surprise in the mail... the sweater! While I was concerned when I was making it that it would be too large (esp since it was too big for me when I tried it on) when Mom took it out of the box she was worried it was too small. Fortunately we were both wrong and it fits 'just

Over the weekend, I DID manage to finish closing the toe on the first Dancing sock, and cast on for another. Last night I knit all of the twisted rib section while at SnB. (It was a poor SnB turnout due to the weather, but we had fun nonetheless.)I'm a sock ho at the moment, but I'm okay with that. Really. I'm looking forward to wearing this pair, as dancing about in the singleton is rather

I got an amazing amount of knitting done last night as Inertiacreeps came over and knit with me while she was doing laundry. :) This morning I was also blessed with a sunny corner to take a picture of the sock. I was really excited about how much I got done last night... I'm closing the toe! It was an act of will this morning to leave the sock at home and not take a 'knit break' during the day

Here's a picture of me blocking the short-rowed fronts, with a little help :)And a picture of the completely assembled raglan, with the two fronts basted together for adding the zipper.

Yep, I've got a little time today, as opposed to last week's crunch. So, I'm going to look at my knitting goals from last year. :)Knitting Goals: (Yes, this is the 'reduced' list. This is in some rough chronology of deadline.)* Finish current project of Gypsy's baby blanket.

Here's a photo of the past couple day's progress (12/26, baby!). I'm gradually getting better with the camera, though I'm still taking multiple shots and then taking the best one. The cranberry is actually a nice Christmas red... and like all red yarns that I've worked with, is slowly dying my bamboo needles pink. :) If I get knitting time tonight, I should be reaching the point (15") where I

This picture is actually from Monday night, but for some reason I didn't get around to posting until today.Due to some heroic knitting efforts, I finished the Ribbi Cardi sleeve caps on Sunday. This probably had a great deal to do with the fact that I'd confided in my DH that since I'd gotten so little knitting in on the sweater since Thanksgiving, I figured it wouldn't be done in time, but that

Hello all!I had a nice weekend last weekend, (gaming Friday and Saturday!) and then picked up SkullLady & her boyo at the Framingham Express Sunday night. Delta being what it is, they were a tad late. This was nice as I got ahead on some more holiday knitting, but it was not-nice in the sense that I was pretty dead to the world yesterday.

No, I didn't die. Yes, I did make the leg warmers longer. I need to collar the DH and get a picture of me in them for the blog. They look more like leg warmers now, even if the yarn is funky. Man, it is funky.It's been a Christmas knitting extravaganza around here, with a good rate of small project completion.Other things I need to post pictures of:Mary's purple socks.Haz in her Kitty Hat.

These are the leg warmers for Mom for Christmas, modelled by moi. It's Knit Picks Merino Style in Coal, Dazzle in Beach, and Butterfly Kisses in Ruby. This is what Mom picked out of the yarn catalog. They don't look... right. I'm not sure how to fix it. I'm having visions of mutant muppets. Maybe they're too tight and not 'slouchy' enough. This could be for the You Knit What? blog. Not

Went to Rhinebeck with the knitting ladies :) I was looking forward to this trip for months, and it didn't dissapoint. I'm rather slow on the picture upload, but I do have one post triumphant return. After learning that Rhinebeck this year would be the two days immediately preceding my birthday, I did some hard thinking and decided that I'd like to make a small party of it this year, with a

Back from doing the conference thing. The first one was the 2005 Annual Protein Society Meeting in Boston, which I commuted to. I had had fond fantasies of the knitting I would do on the train, a la Wendy Knits. Unfortunately, the reality of my situation was that I needed to finish my poster for the second conference, the 2005 FASEB Glucose Transporter Biology Conference in Snowmass, CO. So,

Yeah, I've been working a lot and stressing, but I finally got a zippered pillow case and felted my merino kitty bed.Hopefully you can tell from this picture that it has shrunk considerably. Unfortunately I didn't have a 15-inch platter to stretch the felt on, so it dried on my 12 inch one wrapped in towels. (which wasn't very taut) I'm thinking Smokey might not mind the bumps in the center,

This would be www.knitty.com, btw. Most of the patterns are pretty cool. Some are a bit odd, but that's Knitty for you. =)I'm still sad that I didn't make it in. I understand now a lot of Dan's frustration that most form letters don't tell you what precisely was wrong with your submission, so that you could fix it for next time. Ach well.I still think I might shorten Dan's vest a bit so it's

I'm assured that cou-qi is the noise that some Bermudan frogs make. It was the noise I was making this weekend.Before I go any farther, Happy Birthday Dan! :) We love you! (It was Saturday. He's my SO, my friend, my hubby, and my resident Cancer. Life is good. ;)Anyhoo, I came to the end of my yarn on the Ruby Slipper shawl before I finished the knit-on, garter stitch lace edging.

I've been working a lot for the abstract deadlines and such that are dominating my scientific life, and I longed for a new project which some of you may have heard of. I had some clearance Noro Kabuto in my stash, which tormented me with how I might use it, for itchy unhappiness and rashdom abounded from its wool and alpaca. No Bueno. Since I could knit with it in short bursts but might never

Melissa (of inertiacreeps) made dolls of our All Flesh Must be Eaten characters! She made one of me and a few possible for her character, and then one for Dan as the Zombie Master. They're just AWESOME! Kudos to Melissa!!!

For those who were dying of curiousity, the yarn came in, thereby eliminating the need for all that strategy. I brought the Ruby Slipper shawl on the plane and am now about half-way done with the garter stitch edging. A report card of sorts, on the projects I'd laid out for this year. (original could be found here:) Knitting Goals: (Yes, this is the 'reduced' list. This is in some rough

I've been a good little scientist, at least I think so. ;) Last week I really worked at my computer modeling, and so far this week I've been trying to put together a decent amount of lab work so I can go play in the Midwest with my husband, Dan, and his high school chums buddies. (I just remembered what else chum can be, and well, Bob, Jay and Tom are much dearer than that. ;) So, has the

Craft update for the weekend:I'm still at 576 stitches on Ruby Slipper, but those familiar with the Knitter's Almanac version of the Zimmerman Pi Shawl will understand my joy at finishing the first set of diamonds. I actually moved the second set of diamonds up a little bit because I'm worried about running out of yarn. So far this ball is holding out, but it's ball six of seven total and I

I finished attaching all the parts of my burgundy and gray Ribbi Cardi over the weekend. I just need to knit the collar and add the zipper, and then I'll be set. I'm not in a mad mad rush, as the other knitters in my SnB who were working on the sweater are going to pool their zipper orders. I really should get that collar on though so that the only thing left is the zipper.Speaking of 'only

I went to Mark Twain's house two? two years ago with my in-laws when they came to visit. I still have a postcard from that visit on my desk... it's a picture of a painting of a cat in a ruff. He watches me, sometimes benevolent, sometimes mysterious, sometimes aloof. The docent told me at the house (where I saw the original painting) that Mark Twain used to make up silly stories for his

I managed to get the pattern off to Knitty (www.knitty.com) on time. I haven't heard from them yet that it was rejected, so if an email doesn't show up on Monday, I know I've made it to round two. I hope I'm 'hip' and 'funky' enough. While some of my lunch buddies thought that knitted penis sculptures would have perhaps had a better impact in the funky department, somehow I wonder.Yet, my

I took this picture this morning with Dan's digital camera. I was in a bit of a hurry so I don't know if the cabling around the neck came out as well as it could have... but here's an in-progress of the Dan Vest! :) Note that I'm in the process of curving the cabled strip around so that it will meet up behind his neck. Yay for short rows! I've had to rip and re-do a bit, but I think I've

Due to NetFlix in one case and a regionless DVD player in the other, I recently got to view the first two eps of Sex and the City, as well as the pilot of Twin Peaks. It's worth noting that I'd not seen any parts of either show. In favor of both shows, I did get enough sleep the night before. ;)Sex and the City made me wonder if I'm a poor specimen of femininity. I found myself trying to

Saturday I went with Dharia to the Spring Arts at the Station. We sold her handpainted handspun yarn and some Knit Picks yarn that we dyed. It was mucho fun. Dharia could draw children in, Sleeping-beauty-like, with her Magical Mesmerizing Spinning Wheel. Unfortunately, the draw still functioned when Dharia wasn't around, and I couldn't feed the addiction because I couldn't spin... heheheh.

Well, nuts. I suppose we could use this for the cardigan-a-long, as I don't mind. We'd need a few site changes I suppose. ;) I think a web site for project photos would be way cool. It's on the list of 'things I'd really like to get to but never quite do'. :) Maybe sometime you could show me how one goes about setting it up. *bats eyes* I suppose I'd have to pay you in something nice, like
