So I went to the most amazing knitting retreat over the weekend (pictures are coming, I promise, but I’m on a flight to hawaii tomorrow and my photo software is not on a laptop…) and I wrote down all kinds of random things:

“I dug a tunnel.”

“If our kids can’t knit we should turn off our tvs.”

“I really find it hard to believe that you’re a person that has to worry about short row shaping.”

“I think there’s something wrong with my yarn.”

barcelonaknits.blogspot.com/ < — I HAVE NO IDEA WHY I WROTE THAT ONE DOWN. Also it’s all in Spanish… Please tell me why this site is important?

Also, not written down anywhere, and really embarassing, but I will never forget crawling into Stefanie Japel’s classroom to retrieve my forgotten needle case, attempting to be unnoticed.  Totally didn’t work.

Almost there…

Only 8 days until knitting retreat…

Uhoh, I almost broke the rules and posted this entry without responding to Michelle’s tag!  I am to share six quirky but unspectacular things about me.  Here goes nothing:

1.  I avoid door handles.  I won’t stand around and wait for people to open the door, but I will shove my hands back into my sleeves to avoid direct contact.

2.  I refuse to write on the first page in a notebook.

3.  I avoid microsoft products, except at work, where I do what they say for money.

4.  Before facebook existed I was a google stalker.  Now my online stalking time is so much more efficient.

5.  I don’t really know how to fall asleep before midnight.

6.  The sound of silverware scraping plates DRIVES ME MAD.  I can hear it across the room.  I make all sorts of attempts to look normal when I hear this sound, but if you know I suffer from this affliction you’ll notice the subtle wincing.

And I’m a weak link too Franki!

Greenjeans: The Class!

Originally uploaded by indiknits.

This is my Greenjeans Class at Make1! On the last day of class (Saturday) we all posed with what we had done. I’m seriously proud of what these girls accomplished, and even more thrilled that I was able to get to know these ladies over the course of our four sessions together.
