This weekend, though gorgeous in weather, was spent snuggling with a sick little Lorax. She woke up on Saturday morning having thrown up at some point in the night / early morning. We got her showered and cleaned up and there was more vomit. Same story that afternoon too. Sunday morning too. It's been a… Continue reading Blurp.

Saturday was a perfect day for being outside - I headed out to the CT Sheep & Wool Festival. I set out with a plan to indulge in some lace, find some buttons for a sweater in progress and maybe one or two other special things. I lucked out and got exactly that! It was… Continue reading Local Win! Take 2!

Betz White I am not. Though I love what she does. I am inspired - and I have a need for some new decor, but I really don't want to go out and spend a whole lot. So, a trip to the craft store, a little raiding of the Lorax's box of fuzzy pom-poms, I… Continue reading Color Pop

I feel like lately my mind has been running a million miles a second - I've had so many brain flashes of ideas (that may or may not actually work) and trying to follow up on these ideas leads to more inspiration online. Which leads me to supply sources which brings more inspiration, and so… Continue reading Obsessed and Scattered

I almost don't have words for this. I think most people who read my blog already know this, but seeing as how my blog has become a fairly good record for the everyday happenings of my life, it makes sense to me to record this as well. On Wednesday night, Dan went out to see… Continue reading Impact.

I've been making progress on many fronts - I am feeling very accomplished! My Trellis & Vine sweater is now blocking. Holy chickens, wool holds on to a lot of water. The weather this week is predicted to stay really cold, so I would love to be able to wear this soon!Some detail shots: I've… Continue reading Progress.
