You know that sweater that my son asked for, the one that was supposed to have flames on it? The sweater from hell? (Well, he wanted Hot Wheels flames, he knows nothing of hell.) Or at least hell to me? I finally broke down and frogged it, and I’m making a plain red sweater for […]

Do you remember when, not too long ago, I posted a few finished things, which included Oceandirt’s Mittens? (Her mittens are the very first photo in the post.)

Okay, so maybe I’m not masked, but I’m been blazing through a lot of projects lately. I think it’s mostly because of my new job. It’s incredibly boring, non-stimulating in any way. I have almost no interaction with people, and all I do is open mail and pull and file check stubs. YAWN. Like I […]
