Still in Vancouver. Then I’ll be on the Island. Then Van. Then Vic. Then Van. Where am I? What’s my name?
The Millicents are D.O.N.E. I took photos, but forgot to upload them, and now half my belongings are on the mainland, half on the island. Camera is here, connector cord is there.
A Bloglines Revue!
For starters, Bloglines is a great website that helps you read blogs. You add ‘feeds’ (blogs) to your list, and read them all in once place.
I have 113 in mine, but don’t worry, I didn’t mention all of them! Please go visit these blogs, and read the other entries too! Comment, it’ll be fun, I swear. 
- And She Knits Too – Earth Stripe Wrap in Kidslik Haze. Yum.
- Close to My Heart – Chocolate! The Norwegian Woods Shawl, and Roza’s Socks. Both done in yarn from Elann, a wonderful online yarn store with amazing prices.
- CraftyGrrrl.ca – is spinning yarn for an ENTIRE sweater! I bow down before teh skillz. She might be using fibres from Enchanted Knoll at Etsy. Yummy.
- Domesticrafts – Domesticat is making Rambling Rose in very saturated, squishy-looking Socks that Rock. I’ll have to get my hands on some of that when I’m off the yarn diet.
- Grumperina – is making pretty striped socks, with NO jogs! The technique takes advantage of the fact that knitting in the round is technically knitting in a spiral.
- Hello Yarn – Baby Surprise Jacket in such cute yarn. I love these jackets, and want to make one.
- Diversion – I need to get my hands on Romantic Handknits. If someone gives me the book, does that get my out of my no buying patterns rule? I think so!
- Knits a Beautiful Life – Artfibres yarn. Coned yarn is almost as cute as yarn cakes, especially with photos as good as these!
- Knitting Philistine – an entry full of single socks, all appropriate for the current Project Spectrum.
- Lolly Knitting Around – Hexagon Blanket is already cuddly and warm-looking, even though it is still on the needles.
- SlippedStitch – Messy Tuesdays! So much more do-able than Eye candy Fridays, I think.
- Through the Loops – Cute, simple, pretty hat. I love the colours, and the garter brim looks so cushy and squishy.
- Yarn Storm – Simple socks in rich, rich Kaffe Fasset Regia Caribbean yarn.
Here’s a tutorial for for making your own light tent. I vaguely followed it; as much as I could the materials I had at hand.
Zen Yarn Garden – The Semi-solid sock yarn club I’m in. I love it, wish I had the money to continue.
Flickr group for yellow knits.
My Stash Count is at: 17km (10.5 miles). My goal is 10km, and I’m not allowed to buy yarn until I’m below that mark. sigh. Have a look at my stash on Ravelry, and let me know if there is anything you want!
