1. Met a knitblogger!!
2. Watched my baby do a booty dance with his reflection (very funny!)
3. Found out that Watermelon flavored Smirnoff tastes HORRIBLE when warm.

Three things I have been telling myself are more important than knitting:

1. Surfing Ravelry
2. Posting on my blog
3. Crocheting (gasp!) mice.

Three things I should be knitting right now:

1. Pedicure socks for BFF’s b-day gift (Today)
2. Hat for brother’s b-day gift (Oct. 23)
3. Baby booties for a craft fair (Nov. 1)

1. marching band competitions are exhausting.
2. homecoming was this weekend
3. my son had his first date to homecoming (go see, i have pics on my blog!)

I took a 2-day, 12-hour “Construction Techniques for Fair Isle Sweaters” class with Beth Brown-Reinsel on Friday and Saturday. Beth’s fabulous, and so was the class (my third with her). I have the cutest mini-cardigan knitted!

Sunday morning was “Bavarian Knitting” with Sarah Peasley, which was also good but needed more than the 3-hour slot it had. I wanted even more content/info than Sarah could squeeze into the time allowed.

And I shopped. A lot. I didn’t buy a ton of *stuff*, but I spent a ton of money. Sigh. Must get to knitting it. It’s going to get harder to find knitting time soon–Monday I start a new job with an hour-plus-each-way commute instead of the 30-45 minutes I have now.

Three things about me:
1.) I have mega yarn to reskein so it can visit the NEW Loopy Room.
2.) Right after I finish typing this, I’m going to go see how my Fantasy Football teams fared.
3.) I really need a latte and a pumpkin scone.

1. Wishing you a wonderful week while you move and that everything “moves” right along!!!

2. Finished TWO pairs of socks from Cat Bordhi’s new book: Woven Ridge and Philosopher’s House socks!

3. Now I have MAJOR inbetweenitis as I don’t know what to start next! Christmas stockings, mini stocking ornaments, a shawl, a sweater that I’ve been procrastinating on…I know!!! How about some socks!!!

The woodpet sheep is DARLING!!!

1. Spent Sunday outside planting lavender started from seed, cleaned up some shrubbery. Way too nice to be inside.

2. Worked on Mom’s shawl for Christmas…was going well until I messed up a YO. DRATS!!

3. Had an overall relaxing and stress-free weekend.

Good luck with your move, and I think a red microwave is snazzy!

1. Go to a dear friend’s bridal shower and spend more money than I intended to.. oops… and I was definitely thinking that I should have made her socks instead of buying something… oh well.

2. Finish sock #1 of a pair for a different friend (who was at the shower so I couldn’t knit and chat at the same time– I didn’t want to spoil her Christmas surprise!). This friend is all about colors–maddeningly bright psychedelic colors– so I’m using Interlacement’s Telemark. I never thought someone could be blinded by sock yarn, but this stuff– whooooeeee. Amazing yarn to work with, though.

3. My weakness isn’t scones, but rather animal crackers dipped in nutella. Thus, I will have to tear open the box and dip away, and resist the urge to eat the nutella straight from the jar with a spoon…

Good luck on your move, Sheri! I also can’t wait to see the sign for your new store!

Three things that made me happy this week:

I got my yarns that I ordered from the last Loopy sneakup.

I found my winter jammies just in time.

I managed to find and buy some new jeans that fit.
