My fiance and I currently live in a "cozy" one-bedroom condo, but once I'm finished with school and we can afford to buy a house, I'm very excited about setting up my own knitting room. For some reason, I really love the blocking phase of knitting. However, having a huge table or old mattress would take up a lot of space, so I've been contemplating a "Murphy Blocking Board." You know those "Murphy Beds" that fold out of the wall in tiny New York apartments? Why not have a blocking board that you can fold in and out of the wall whenever it's time to block? Other necessities in my perfect knitting room are a window so I can watch the snow fall (I live in Edmonton, where it's Winter for about seven months of the year), and a mahogany table with a wing-back chair so I can sit and stare at patterns and spread out all my yarn. A tea kettle and tea stash are also on the "must have" list, along with a portable Ipod speaker system so I could listen to the Beatles while I knit. Your knitting room looks amazing, by the way! I love the colour of the walls. One thing's for sure - when I finally have my knitting room it will be full of Loopy Ewe yarn. Terri My Perfect Knitting Room

Hi Sheri,

My perfect knitting room is something I dream about often. My fiance and I currently live in a “cozy” one-bedroom condo, but once I’m finished with school and we can afford to buy a house, I’m very excited about setting up my own knitting room. For some reason, I really love the blocking phase of knitting. However, having a huge table or old mattress would take up a lot of space, so I’ve been contemplating a “Murphy Blocking Board.” You know those “Murphy Beds” that fold out of the wall in tiny New York apartments? Why not have a blocking board that you can fold in and out of the wall whenever it’s time to block?

Other necessities in my perfect knitting room are a window so I can watch the snow fall (I live in Edmonton, where it’s Winter for about seven months of the year), and a mahogany table with a wing-back chair so I can sit and stare at patterns and spread out all my yarn.

A tea kettle and tea stash are also on the “must have” list, along with a portable Ipod speaker system so I could listen to the Beatles while I knit.

Your knitting room looks amazing, by the way! I love the colour of the walls.

One thing’s for sure – when I finally have my knitting room it will be full of Loopy Ewe yarn.

Terri

No invite to the Sock Club. Did I get over it. Yes. There is always next year. What bugged me today: Our car is officially dead. I hope I can get over that as quickly as I did not getting into the Club. Take care. Looking forward to the day I can get Wollmeise and knit with it in my new car! What bugged me.

I received an order from you over the weekend, and my little Yorkie wouldn't leave the box alone, even after I took the kisses out. It was kind of cute---she doesn't get out much, and I think that's the closest she's been to a cat in quite a while. Does your cat investigate the out-going packages?
