I just joined the 2008 Summer of Socks. Now I have to keep this blog up. Jeez, I need a new banner. Suddenly that thing looks really tacky.
No, I haven’t posted much. Because I haven’t knitted much. In like, three years. Especially the last year and a half. Mom was sick for a long time, and finally recently passed away. (Details here, if you really want to read about it; can’t imagine anyone would unless they’re going through the same thing.) Dad went in ‘05. No more family stuff for the foreseeable future.
So it’s back to knitting and spinning. I’m going with my friend Janel to our local knitting guild meeting on Saturday — my first time there in 3 1/2 years.
No photos for now. In fact, I don’t even know where my camera is. Yeah, gotta find that. There is a shawl underway (well, actually, there are a LOT of things underway, but none other that is anywhere near completion) that will be a (probably belated) birthday present for my sister. That’ll get posted at some point. There’s some little bits of spinning I could photograph and post.
Mañana. Or when I find the camera.
