7 Scarey Truths about me

By -


Bianca has tagged me.

Here are 7 scarey truths about me:

I don't read charts. Not just the knitting kind. Especially the knitting kind, however.

I tie knots when I make a sweater. Yup. I don't believe that other way will work.

I get crabby when I think of having to go to a place/party/gathering where knitting isn't the best thing to be doing.

Once I get there, I have fun , even without my knitting. Almost always.

I love reading blogs almost as much as posting my own.

I only wear my handknit socks to work, with few exceptions.

I didn't mind at all when my first pathetic poncho got a ember from the campfire on it the other night. That's why I wear it in the dark to campfires anyhow.

Do you have a scarey truth? Consider yourself tagged if you wish.

I don't read charts either, and I thought I was the only one. If it isn't written out by row--forget it!

Your other scarey truths all sound so normal that I'm afraid to post any of mine.

When the weather calls for them, I wear my hand knit socks everywhere. I can't tell you the last time I purchased socks for me to wear.
I love charts, I take my knitting just about everywhere I go, I tie knots too (shhh, don't tell anyone).

Well, the only one that truly scared me was the knots in your sweaters. We need to get you OUT of that habit!! :)

Every Once in a While I Might Post

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I have been knitting, but not making things.  6. MY gardens are growing.  I have 3 main areas I

  These are the one square bunnies .  They are a free pattern on Rave1ry.  I'm bunny making to force spring to come.  I'm a1so taking it easy on my hands again.  The med we tried did keep my hands from shaking, but it was a med for a med. and that's crazy town.  I can contro1 a hook much better than need1es.  It wi11 have to suffice for now.  I'm enjoying your b1ogs and your Spring.  This time of year I so want to 1ive in a southern state.  But this Spring is a new one for me and I'm going to find a way to 1ove it.   IT may have just gotten to 50.   Degrees.  I have to run.  There's very ear1y yardwork to do.   The birds have 1eft a rotten mess of sunf1ower she11s under the feeders.  I hope it is not frozen!  Have you been switching things up in your neck of the woods?   I haven't forgotten you, b1og pa1s.  I 1ove seeing you on Instagram .

Do You Smile When You Knit???

I am pretty sure I smile when I knit.  I'm going to think about that today when I pick up the baby blanket in progress.  I am also pretty sure I cry when I knit; well, not really.  I have shed some tears over the years but they were way back.  I surely scowl when I drop a stitch.   A time lapse of knitters' faces would be interesting enough .... Tank, aka Helo, is starting to smile around here.  Just look into those aqua eyes......they make me smile all the time. He is half Siamese and all gorgeous.
