have I written this before? I feel like I have. Or maybe it's just been barreling around my head for a while, so I think it is real? I am having trouble keeping track of three blogs these days! Or, just keeping track of me! Where I am, what I am doing, where I probably should be. Who knows.

Anyhow, I am a new member of the DC Craft Mafia!! I met some of these supercrafty ladies Saturday! I am a bit overwhelmed right now at all the crafty possibilities, but I think it will help me branch out, make contacts, make newer, funner stuff. And meet new people! YAY!  ¶ 20:31 2 comments

  princess wear Thanks for all the great garter recipes! I tested out one of them, spinning a nice thin cormo/silk blend- still not thin enough for my liking (though it might work), so I wanna hit up a yarn shop for laceweight. 18 days to go!

I just ordered these lovely pieces!

Custom made for me by Rohmcustom on etsy.com. I can't wait to try them on!!  ¶ 07:47 3 comments

  *now* I decide to get crafty? so I'm coming round to this girly wedding thing... wondering what I can manage to do (beyond flowers and programs and name tags) in the next few weeks.

your task: finding a knit garter pattern.

something new! :)  ¶ 08:20 6 comments

  mdsw!!! going to sheep and wool! going to sheep and wool!

Did you know that the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival is the largest of it's kind? I had no idea, but good old public radio tells all. There's a bit on it on Metro Connection Friday.. so the people DC can see how crazy we are. "...more yarn than you can shake a stick at!" HAHA!!

the slumber party fun begins Friday night. I'm bringing my blender!

I'll only be at the festival Saturday, as there are still a lot of wedding preparations and house fixing to do. The thing is? I have nothing on my list! Well, maybe a bigger niddy noddy, but- I have yarn, I have fiber. more than I can shake a stick at, that is for sure! I also have to hide my stash before the wedding, lest our guests think I am odd! ;)

On the perhaps list: a skein or two of sock yarn, some superwash fiber. something for k8?  ¶ 10:52 1 comments
