25 to 36

A dozen new bibs for Eric. He likes them very much.  They don’t have the been washed over 100 times feel.  They are still nice, fluffy and  very soft. The pattern was published in 2010 under key word bib.

Bad at Posting

I have been very bad at posting pictures. I have not posted since project number 24. Since then there have been almost another 24 projects completed. I will try to post some pictures later.

I am still sick, although feeling better. I have knit 2 hats in 2 days. Pictures later.

Wher Did March Go?

I am ending the Month of March sick and resting.  I don’t know where the month has gone. There has been a lot of knitting and spinning. A dozen new bibs for Eric. By the way he loves them all. They have the soft not washed a hundred times feel.

What I have not accomplished is writing the 2 new knitting patterns.  The finished items are folded on the table in need of blocking.  Taking photos of the new patterns.  So my goal for April is to get 2 patterns self published.  Finish knitting 2 more shawl patterns and completing the process. To get that done I will stop writing and go to sleep.

A New Design

The new design with Mary Gavin’s yarn is coming out better than expected.  Only 10 zillion rows to knit, just kidding only about 300 rows to go.  youcan ask for her Measyarn at your local yarn shop or go to MartGavinYarns.com.

No Carpe Deim

Not all days are a Carpe Diem kind of day around here. Some days my standards are very low as long as everyone is alive at the end of the day and the laundry is not above knee level, I will call it a win.

I did get some Spinning done. This is going to be plied as an art yarn.  Pictures will follow when finished.

I did barely manage to get my 8,000 steps today.

I had a very enjoyable day. I went to the n4th Avenue Street Fair today. All my usual parking places were gone. I truly mean gone. The church parking lot is now a building under construction. My others were filled with vendor booths.  So I parked at the Tyndall garage at the University of Arizona and walked down hill to the street fair.  I did do a little shopping but skipped the street fair food.  I picked out a few things for my birthday while I was there.

It was a very good step day with over 10 thousand steps.  Just before bed my body decided what it thought of all the days activities. Let me tell you that it hates me at this moment.  I am hopeful that a good nights sleep will fix everything.

Failed Parenting

Eric has not slept for the last 2 nights. In my extreme tiredness I decided that Eric would not get his afternoon television time. So instead he came in the sewing room with me. I am in the middle of making a dozen new bibs so we can retire the worn looking ones.  

It did not occur to me until his afternoon aide came that it looked to her like he was getting a special treat.  Extra time with me and brand new bibs to boot. This is an epic parenting failure.

In my defense I did try to nap today, but every time I fell asleep the door bell rang.
