Treats?Originally uploaded by nutmegknitterMy current favorite photo! May you find more treats than tricks today! (My dog is a good sport part 2 will be posted later today)

So, I did it - finally! I've got Fall / Halloween items in my etsy shop!

My Own AppleOriginally uploaded by nutmegknitterLorelai loved getting her own apple yesterday is an understatement. I have the photos of her screaming when I took it away to take a bite (gasp! and it was my apple to begin with. I thought, oh wouldn't it be a funny photo if she tries to bite the… Continue reading Biting off more than I can chew

Me & my dogOriginally uploaded by nutmegknitter10 months later, and Jackson is no longer completely freaked out by Lorelai "petting" him. I was going to use a different photo for the "10 month" post today, but I caught this quick with the iphone and it's just so sweet! So, dear Lorelai, here's where we're at:… Continue reading Me & my dog

Doesn't that sound like a children's book? I was inspired before all the rain started to make an acorn hat - figured it was a good seasonal hat, might be something different for the craft fair - so I stopped in at the Yarn Basket and picked up some wool / acrylic yarn in browns.… Continue reading The Saddest Little Acorn

I… Continue reading Neck Sock Finished!

Things have sortof settled down here. I've been able to pick up the knitting for brief bouts of time as I'm still dealing with sinus issue (allergies? cold? I have no idea.) Anyway, I finished sheldon (knitty.com) - but as it is for Lorelai, I've named this turtle Sookie. A relatively quick knit, fun to… Continue reading Finishing & Starting Stuff

Short and sweet. Thursday I started to feel the effects of an allergy attack (I thought) - I wanted to go out with the SnB-ers to celebrate JennSquared, but just ran out of steam. Friday was a complete wash with a sinus thing, although L & I did get to go out for coffee and… Continue reading Drive By Blogging

Sanrio Sock Club KitOriginally uploaded by nutmegknitterYesterday was a fantastic mail day - I got my next project for Schaefer (and my yarn from the last project - Miss Priss in Thistle for a "Mr.Greenjeans"). And the Sanrio Sock Club from Woolgirl arrived. I have the sport weight yarn (quick socks, right?!) and look at… Continue reading Sanrio Sock Club Kit
