Its all true, the boogie girl is real, and you've found her. She knits, sews, spins, does pottery and writes it all down in this blog.

Oooh---it's picture day
Johnny get your finger out of your nose!
these are what I've been making lately - knitting project bags.
They and the needle rolls have been keeping at the sewing machine and away from my needles and yarn. But not too far away. I'm taking a knitting day today because I've run out of some important material. Hopefully I'll be able to get more tomorrow. My elann order came in 
I got 9 balls of the salsa. I was thinking a tank top and now I think I want a cardigan so I may get more. oooohhh decisions decisions. I dont' think I have anything else I'm waiting on. I want to go to Halcyon and pick up some mohair and specific pattern, I'm also thinking of starting to get yarn for Jay's sweater - I think I will need about 1200-1600 yds of worsted or maybe I'll do chunky. hmm maybe I wont pick it up since I can't decide what I'm going to do. I don't think he will like what ever I do anyway. the only thing that I've ever made him that he wears are his pj pants, he's very picky about what he wears outside the house and I just dont think i hit the mark. I also need to get Moira's xmas pics. Christmas is so busy I don't know how i get anything done. But here are both of my fingerless gloves on 
I had to set the camera on the fridge and raise my hands to get a pic. I have a tripod somewhere but I think I've gone half blind as I couldn't find it. I also finished Vanessa's gift. I want to keep it a suprise, I don't know if her parents even know where to find my blog but on the off chance they do find it - this is the only hint. 
Maybe that sweater is why I'm so down on eyelash and foofy yarn. I mean its cute and all but I hate working with it and I do tend to dislike the trends anyway. I didn't mean to bag on that store I went into. I bet a regular non trendy store wouldn't do so well in that spot. I'd be happy just to have a yarn store. To bask all day long surrounded by yarn. I'm drooling just thinking about it. And I cannot forget, my friend from KR, Anj sent me some pics of her in the pretty little hat that I made her. She's so cute.
Her pics made me giggle. looks like she was having a good silly time. I wont even show you the popcorn one. :) although it is my favorite.
I'm heading back to my sewing machine now. I still need to make Moira a new dress and maybe another pair of PJ pants for Jay.
I almost forgot. I tried on my sonnet again (the body) and I've decided to keep it. It makes my boobies look good. So I hope to finish that soon after the holidays.
