Knits With Cats
I'm a senior technical project manager at work, a knit project starter at home and a list-maker everywhere! I'm married and have too many cats, lots of books, almost enough rose bushes, and way too much yarn!

Bad Yarn Vibes
Wednesday, 27 June 2007 12:00 A GMT-08
Cara recently wrote about the “vibe” she felt at a San Francisco yarn store, ImagiKnit, which is highly touted as a great yarn store. I’ve never been there and can’t comment on the vibes - I’d love to check it out

This weekend was a good one for yarn acquisition! Not a lot of yarn was acquired, but it is truly wonderful and it felt (and still feels) totally decadent to buy new yarn. (Perhaps that’s the best lesson to be learned from Knit From Your

It was a good weekend. Mr. Ken and I had fun, accomplished things and were somewhat social.I started a new knitting project, and it's going well. My new haircut is wonderful. Laundry is drying (and washing) right now. Ther

ArtFibers "YarnTasting"

Today is the first day of summer, and I celebrated in appropriate San Francisco fashion: I wore tights with my wool skirt, sweater and clogs instead of hand-knit wool socks! The high temperature today was a lovely 65* - just about normal

I actually spent most of my train time today working (horrors!) not knitting. At about 5 pm I took a break and wrote another random blog post for tonight. That's when I finally noticed that the train was not moving. I have no id

Seriously Random

Random ramblings...1. Maya is doing well again. I don't know how many of her 9 lives she's used (at least 3, I think) but once again she's eating her pumpkin glop like a piglet and has regained enough muscle, fat and strength

Pictures of knitting were promised, but I can't find my camera! Time to clean out my briefcase and knitting bag. Until then, the Car Talk Guys from NPR have come to my rescue. Here's a link to their Puzzler this week which

Wasted Days
Sunday, 10 June 2007 8:08 P GMT-08
My time alone was wonderful! My parents were at the theater, so I left them a message and then proceeded to finish a last hat for Dulaan, weave in the ends on that hat and another, wash all the Dulaan items and hang them to dry. I did lau

It’s been a long, strange week, and I’m really glad it’s Friday! The Dulaan deadline suddenly looms close, and I don’t have as many finished items as I’d like. There are the 5 I promised, and a couple of extras

I’ve been feeling pretty overwhelmed for the past few weeks, maybe even a couple of months, and the causes for this are finally becoming clear. I’m beginning to know what will make it better (I think), but it’s going to be a c

Thumbing...and not much knitting
Friday, 1 June 2007 5:03 P GMT-08
You Are the Thumb You're unique and flexible. And you defy any category. Mentally strong and agile, you do things your own way. And you do them well. You are a natural leader... but also truly a loner. You inspire many but connect with few.
