The Fiber Artist

Wow, that sounds pretentious doesn't it. But it is the name of my company, so I decided to use it. This is where I will keep a record of works in progress in the hope that it will result in more productivity. It will also give me a place to ramble on about my life, so that maybe later I will remember what happened in ___ (fill in day, month, year of your choice).

Knitting and Dentist


I am getting tired of going to the dentist every week or so, I am ready for it to be over.  It  will be over for 3 whole months in November, by then the last 2 crowns will be on and the last of the cleaning done and I can make an appointment with hygiene for February and not think about dentists until then. 

The 9th guy sock gets some work when I go to the dentist. So I am going to have to put in an effort to get that done at home instead.  Which will be different. 

In other news Sierra's sweater is coming along, the picture is half of the first repeat, and I am actually at one and a half now, need a total of 3 repeats so the body skirt is about 1/2 done.

The fronts of the Central Park Hoodie are well under way.  I work on this until the stiffness and scratchiness of the yarn get to me, and I put it down for the alpaca in Sierra's sweater.  Once washed even sketchily, it softens up like that old sweatshirt that feels wonderful and is totally disreputable, hopefully that does not mean that it will become disreputable looking  really quickly.  But it will feel really good.

I don't know if I mentioned that I started a pair of mystery socks...here they are after clue one.  I tried getting a closeup but I needed to dig out the tripod for the camera and I think it is over at the (short-lived) studio.  And I did not want to wait until 3 pm or later to try to get it.  I will try to remember this afternoon to see if Dennis is up and if I can get in to look for it.

The TV shows have been piling up on the DVR so I need to go watch them and knit.

    We are going through the weekly dentist appointments, too. I get to have a badly-done crown replaced and a filling over a root canal capped. Bruce gets his fitted next week. Ain't life fun? Somewhere? (grin)

    Your house is coming along nicely. I just adore the red roof. Though... I could not handle the red room personally. It would make me cranky. (grin)
