Text of the page (random words):

and a bowl of chowder to pass the time now thanks to the wonders of the interweb no longer do we have to wait a week to watch hyacinth drive everyone insane with her nitpicking personality or see basil fawlty get bullied again i was wondering whether anyone thinks the vicar of dibley is hilarious dawn french on a roll is ripping stuff see i ve picked up english bits now i wonder if there are any more old fun comedies to get hooked on i m not limited to english comedies of course i love me my american sitcoms too it s just that i m running out of things to watch now and i need ideas hope

try to make up for it well most of you know that i left for a summer vacation to the motherland sri lanka it s been 8 years and seriously nothing has changed except for the humidity i could literally feel my hair frizz up as i stepped off the plane van de graff s got competition now that the war is over things perhaps do look to be a bit more peaceful and people seem to be happier free of the tendrils of fear that clasped the nation for decades knitting wise nothing much has been done i ve got a razor cami in the works and a promise to fulfill blocking the whisper cardi that s been enthusiastically sniffed at by all the pets d left to right tina and yoda do you see the resemblance to green yoda there are two dogs three ducks and an occasional snake in addition to the brood my cousin has been teaching me a new sort of embroidery and it s rather lovely a preview i ought to begin knitting again i shall in fact i have a blocking appointment tonight i ve been hunting for yarn shops around here but to no avail i ve only seen icky acrylic a big disappointment indeed that s about all for now updates will be regular henceforth hopefully with good info stemming from the exploration phase that takes over anyone who travels happy knitting everyone posted by r a i n at 1 31 pm 3 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels general sri lanka vacation tuesday may 12 2009 crafty me i like symmetry knowing that i can put this like of symmetry into my knitting is a very comforting thought that is why i keep track of every single row that i knit every stitch that i might tink every increase decrease you get the picture this can however lead to rather complicated nonsense scribbled on any bit of paper near me while knitting grocery lists envelopes anything therefore to help me in this quest for keep track of things in style i fashioned a row counter for myself when i first saw these on blogs i could never figure out how and why would anyone want a contraption like this tangled in their knitting but after knitting rows and rows of stockinette the symmetry lover in me realised that this is the easiest way to remember how many rows i d knitted without having to stop after each row and mark it each jump ring represents a row a repeat or whatever you d like it to be here it is in use with the sleeve of my whisper cardigan yeah i sorta got lazy as i reached the top and put in an old wire that i had twisted for practice before heh but i like how it came out it also helps to keep my purple obsession in check without having to knit everything in purple would you use one of these in your knitting posted by r a i n at 5 27 am 6 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels general knick knacks whisper wips thursday may 07 2009 phase ii nothing helps to finish up rows of stockinette like a good movie or a bad one i ve got my wip count to zero it is possible and i ve done it i frogged the jacket and chucked twiggy tweed into a basket to be cut into bits because i know i ll never use it phase ii knit more much more has begun it feels good to start with a clean slate last night i cast on for the coveted whisper cardigan using knitpicks alpaca cloud in papaya which i swiped from the lovely rambling roses be warned make sure you use cables with the smoothest join my kp options kept snagging and i wonder whether something can should be done back to the movie i chose cloverfield bad choice 20 minutes into it i was ready to barf all over my knitting it s a pov movie and all the running made my head spin tonight i shall attempt to watch it again however making sure i do not eat two hours beforehand ick i ve been having lots of ball winding fun at the kos lately i
