I have moved to blogger because I could not get the formatting here right: Here is my REAL BLOG!!!!!!!! http://adore-knits.blogspot.com/ PLEASE COME PLAY OVER THERE! http://adoreknits.blogdrive.com/comments?id=13 http://adoreknits.blogdrive.com/archive/12.html Wed, 12 Jul 2006 00:28:52 GMT <!-- ckey="44563153" --> I am testing out bloglines. http://adoreknits.blogdrive.com/comments?id=12 http://adoreknits.blogdrive.com/archive/11.html Mon, 10 Jul 2006 05:08:27 GMT With B making himself a Rootbeer float for himself (read 101 Things to see why he would not make one for me) and watching Family Guy I thought I would come share all my WIP I got going on. Noni Rather HUGE Carpet Bag: I started this back in the middle of April. Honestly I have just gotten too bored with it. It is too large for the mindless take in the bag/car knitting and I don't have the handle yet so it has hung out in the corner for about a month. I have 4 more "stripes" then gotta felt...I actually did 4 rows of her after I brought her out for the picture. Here are a couple: So...

I am 31 years old and an Aries…very true to form with that one. 2. B & I got married at a zoo…okay it was a semi-private zoo/botanical gardens and kicked butt – alas there were still zebras that overlooked our vows and white tigers in the distance. 3. We have a son who will be a year in August we call him Little R (or lil' r) 4. I cried when the ultrasound technician told us it was a boy, mostly because I was so sure it was a girl and thus felt so disconnected. B...

So I go over there 2 times a day at work and “hang out” for a bit of time. Well I always try to sneak my knitting in over there because well it is quite a bit boring sitting there waiting and waiting. I much rather be productive! Now that you have the history on with the story… On Monday I was going down to the room. I did not have my bag with me so I had to sneak my knitting for the...

I canNOT believe it has been almost a month I am SO bad. Bad BAD Stacy! Well actually I have been lurking around and a bit under the weather. I got struck with mastitis again suddenly (read: went from fine to 103 temp in about an hour) and had to go on IV one afternoon and doc ordered me to be a "lady of leisure" aww shucks TWIST MY ARM will ya Well I got a ton of beading done over that time and quite a bit of knitting. I am on my last sleeve of the cardigan/lace edge jacket below. I probably will be done after tomorrow, but honestly the sleeves are...

So I have been working on lovely French Vanilla for WEEKS - WEEKS I tell you. Now...I did have to frog about 5 inches of work... because I was an IDIOT (I twisted when I joined DUH!)...that was painful, but needed and hey I am still learning right? RIGHT?? LOL Well I am about 6" up the piece now with the folded hem so it is moving along but I have 4 more diamonds up to go and I am only thru ONE of them maybe...there are FOUR FOUR I TELL YOU - Did I say FOUR! Man I am suppose to be amazing with this and finish it...

Without further ado we have FRENCH VANILLA! The background on team French Vanilla... The owner of the team has been DYING over this top since she saw in a little preview on the website. I MEAN DYING! We are not sure if she likes her tiny little hips or how cute this piece is, but this team is a GO! This is the owners first adventure with lace, and lets hope it is AMAZING! Owner: Me – Stacy Z – doing what I do when I am not knitting…cleaning! And being a general brat. General Manager:...

Actually she is pretty nice, and loves lil R like there is no tomorrow, but alas it sucks to have someone there in a tiny house while you whip out the girls and pump if you know what I mean. Just the image you wanted today, I am sure. Now to the story Well this weekend B (aka DH) is going to Boulder to see a show at Red Rocks and to check out the house. I was suppose to go with him, but it would of been a riddle with my parents coming up to watch R so I said F' it. Just told him to go...

I wait until payday Friday to go to the LYS... I show up and... THEY ARE CLOSED!!!!!!!!! Just my luck! They said closed for a family weekend vacation on the sign. I headed over to Barnes & Noble and picked up the magazine, now I am on the yarn hunt since I could not check out any of them there. Conclusions on the tops I wanted to do. Well the Lace Crossover Top I am not quite as excited about it now because from looking at the pattern the top of the V does not match up and that kinda bugs me, but I like a couple of sweaters in there more...
