Alfred Eats My Addis..
Believe it or not.. I have been knitting! I just haven't been blogging or writing much.. er.. anything at all.. but this is about to change.
Coming soon (Hopefully in the next 24 hours) will be a brand new domain name for my knitting blog.. with 100 (Yes.. one HUNDRED) gigs of server space.. Which is good.. because last time I tried updating here my current server wouldn't do it because it's full. So I won't be having that problem anymore.. Yayyyy!
But yes.. the link to my blog will be changing.. it will be even easier to remember than it is now.
www.kimmishknitting.com
I have already registered it.. it just hasn't taken hold quite yet.. but soon my pretties.. soon!
So in actual knitting news.. Yesterday I actually decided what I wanted to do about my TCC sleeves.. so I found my sleeve in progress and I just started knitting.. I ended up deciding that 10 extra rows before the shoulder shaping would be just the right amount to add length to the sleeve.. and if it happens to grow a little after I wash and block it, it will still be within the ok limits of comfortable sleeve length.
And ofcourse Alfred thinks that he owns my sleeve (and my new Addi Turbos) and all the other yarn related items in the house.. He is slowly being taught differently.
Speaking of Addi Turbos... I OWN SOME! WOO!! Lol.. It was the gift I picked out and watched Bradley buy for me for Christmas for him to put in my stocking.. So I finnally tried them out yesterday.. and they are really.. smooth.. and the cord is soooooo flexible.. I really like them.. but I think I still like my Denise needles the best. I could see using Addis for certian things though.. They do sure feel luxurious though.. that's for sure.
Also I've been working on Alfred's Kitty Pi bed.. it seems to be going well.. but I am SO close to running out of yarn on it that I've moved it to the back burner for a while. I have also put in an order for the missing yarn.. I hope it gets here soon because it is a really great project for me to work on at work.
Course I do wish I were finished with my TCC by now.. apparently we're going to have freezing HIGH temperatures in the next couple of days and I am going to be COLD.. but oh well.. I'm sure I have plenty of cold days left... hopefully.. lol.. atleast one.. would be nice.
So I guess that is about it.. Expect some changes around here soon.. namely writing more oftin.. I am committed to writing atleast once a month when I pay the new domain name bill. lol. But hopefully I will write more than that.. and soon!

About Me
- Name: Kim

I'm a tiny short woman who loves to knit clothes that actually fit me. I first learned to knit when I was about 10 but I never got beyond knit and purl. I didn't pick up knitting again till about 2 years ago, and now with the help of tons of library books, I'm chugging along and I think I'm pretty darn good : ) I'm married, and love my Australian husband dearly.
