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.

Seven degrees of knitting and spinning
Based on the game "seven degrees of Kevin Bacon"
I can do this. I bet you can too. Name anything, anything at all and I can somehow connect it to knitting or spinning within 7 degrees. Most of the time I can do it within 2 or 3. Yes, you may bow to me now. Really there is no trick to it. Its all part of the fiber addiction. This has become a real joke around our house. The husbeast can mention anything and I can relate it all to my fiber obsession. Think about it for a time and I bet you can do the same.
Frogging seems to have become an important part of the dance I do to start a project. Knit then Frog. Knit, look at it and frog at least part of it. Knit and then frog and burn it. Ok, that's a bold faced lie. I don't burn it, but it does cross my mind. I started a shawl in this manner Monday afternoon. The Highland Shawl from the Folk Shawls book. I finally decided that I didn't like the yarn I had pulled from the stash. Back to the stash bin it goes. I haven't given up. I've chosen a new yarn, not from the stash, not brand new, I pulled it from ever lovely frog pond. Say good bye to Sonnet and hello to Highland Shawl. 
Its all curly and fluffy. I already washed the 2 sleeves so I should be able to start that tonight.
!Feliz Cinco de Mayo!
Go out and celebrate with your favorite tequila.
