KNITSTER

Hello Knitsters!

Granted, it’s been a while since any of us have written here. What can I say? 2009 is proving to be a very busy year for all of us. We’re all keeping up with each other via LJ, Twitter and Facebook, but it’s good to stop here every once in a while…when we have a moment!

I saw an article I wanted to post here, because it was, well, just a good article. And yes, it’s about knitting.

It’s essentially how knitting is helping to pull a town together during the current economic situation.

In the meantime, just because we aren’t here doesn’t mean we aren’t knitting! I have one sock (not the one in the last post) done that I started, but didn’t finish the other one. I’ve also been working on some basic shawls based on a pattern in a Debbie Bliss magazine made with Debbie Bliss Stella yarn, which is mostly made of silk. I’m making them as thank you gifts for my son’s teachers, because since February, they have been sending home daily reports to help us track my son’s behavior since he started taking medications for ADHD and serotonin deficiency. I have one done, and am frantically working on the other so that I have them both done in time for the last day of school (which is in three weeks!). I will post photos of all of these when I have a moment. It’s harder for me to post as my part-time job has gone full-time, and I don’t have a heckuva lot of free time like I did before. But, even now, I try to get some knitting in during my lunch break, and any free moment I have (this is why my purse is a Jordana Paige, so my knitting goes everywhere with me!).

We’ll all soon show more results for things…when I’m not so busy!
